In a match which Federer was a favorite, he went on to actually claim victory from his opponent Roberto Agut. However, the game didn’t start the way Federer would have liked as Roberto raced to an early lead leaving Federer to make catch up with him. Due to this fact, Roberto must have been pleased when he won the first set 6-2 against Federer. However, by the time the second set started, Federer started having other ideas.

Like all great matches, there was a hint of controversy, and this came in the set which was to decide it all. Agut had played a beautiful forehand game when the tie was still equally placed at about 4-4. However, the referee to the game was quick to point out that it was out even though it was successful. To Agut annoyance, Federer went on to win that set as he quickly broke Agut to take that set 6-4. This was not all as Agut lost his temper. In a fit of anger, Roberto lashed out at the referee accusing them of having favoritism tendencies toward Roger Federer. He claimed that it was at the crucial moment that the referee made such a blatant mistake.

Speaking later after the match, Agut claimed that he had Federer where he wanted him, and he went that this was a fantastic opportunity to win him. However, he felt that the referee had other ideas and had influenced the game to suit his tastes. Roberto explained that after he had fought back from being 30-0 down, that he had felt agitated suddenly with the fact that this was the central moment and he was playing The 20-time grand champion in front of a large crowd. However, it was not to be.

Federer won the night, and he paid tribute to his longtime rival Rafael Nadal after he took time off to help his country and his place of origin Majorca. Roger Federer explained that he was always willing to help Rafa with whatever he would need. He realized just how vital this place meant to him and he was going to stay in touch with him throughout this trial. It should be remembered that Majorca was hit with a lot of flooding in recent weeks which left all the major stars in Tennis sending their tributes to Nadal.

One of such was Novak who also proceeded to the next round. Speaking about it, he wished that he could do something about it but wished his rival good luck even calling him “amigo” in the process. It should be kept in mind that both stars in this competition are going up with the intention of claiming or retaining the number two spot regarding ranking. Novak would have an opportunity to go in front if he can at least make it to the finals of this competition. He would be looking to do that and stamp his authority on the ranking.
