DVD Description

Wimbledon has a new king. Rafael Nadal dethroned five-time champion Roger Federer by winning the longest-ever Wimbledon men's final.

The consistently heart stopping 6-4, 6-4, 6-7 (5-7), 6-7 (8-10), 9-7 classic began at 2.35pm and, thanks to a couple of breaks for rain it ended at 9.15pm with the 22-year-old from Mallorca dropping to the ground with his arms outstretched in celebration.

The match was one of the greatest Grand Slam finals of all time. The Spaniard, who had squandered two match points in a nerve-shredding fourth set tie-break, added a first All England Club title to his four French Opens, shattering Federer's dreams of an historic sixth successive Wimbledon trophy.

"It's impossible to explain what I felt when I won. I'm just very happy to win this title. I never thought I could win but to do so is a dream," said Nadal who had lost the last two finals to Federer.

Synopsis

Features every game and set of the thrilling 2008 Wimbledon Men's Final between Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, the longest-ever Wimbledon men's final.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truimph at twilight, 17 Sep 2008

By	Mr. D. Phillips "David Phillips" (England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

There has been many nail bitting finals at wimbledon.But for myself it was the greatests finals ever played on the now developing centre court.Leading commentators also decisbe it as one of the greatest. Roger Federer came in to the final with a 65 match winning streak.He was now heading for the submit and aiming for a sixth titel. His last defeat at the All England club came in 2002 to M Antcic in the First Round.He also famously defeated the Mighty Sampras in the 4 th Round in 2001.However every champion has a nemisis. Rafa Nadal started strongly taking the break of serve which he ran away with to clich the first set.In the second set Federer broke early and had a 4-1 lead however Nadal did his typical trade mark and won 6 games in a row to lead by two sets to love.At this point Federer looked prickly.In third set Federer saved two break points before the first rain delay.In part two Federer took the third set on a tie beack.The Fourth Set also went to a tie break and Nadal looked in dominatating form.Towards its conclueson we witness two of the best passing shots ever seen court.Nadal curled a ball down the tram lines to set up championship points.At this point Nadal was now serving for his first wimbledon titel. However great champions die hard.Federer came up with another joker to save his crown.With a nervous Nadal Federer forced a mini break for a set point. Nadal sent the ball out of court to hand Federer the Fourth Set. In the Fifth set Federer was serving first which gave him advantage.Nadal stayed postive and kept the matching going.There was also a second rain delay for 45 minutes. At 5-4 Federer had a break point on the Nadal serve which could have seen him serving for his sixth wimbledon crown.However Nadal save the break point to keep the match on level terms.Nadal also had break points on Federers serve but he always had an answer.Finally at 7-7 Nadel broke Federer and was now serving for the Match.Flash photography at one point in final game made Federer slighly angery.But a miss hit made him more angery as he was now facing another match point.But once again the five time champion said no. Nadel served a big first serve to set up championship point number four.Nadel served once again and the crowards saw another two great ground stokes.Federer came into the net for a cross volley but netted the ball to hand victory to Nadal who fell to ground in triumph.Roger Federers Five year reign was now over and the All England Club hailed a New King.Rafal Nadal. The Dvd also features Roger Federer and Rafal Nadel reading Ruyard Kiplings famous poem "If" written in 1910. It also features an interview with Nadal who dicribes his victory as "very speical".The Match was commantated by Andrew Castle and Tim Henamn. I would recomend this Dvd to any wimbledon spectators.

5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensable souvenir of a classic match., 10 Aug 2008

By	Graham White (Christchurch) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Probably the greatest Wimbledon Final ever, maybe the greatest match ever. Relive this titanic contest in which Rafa, soon after winning the French and at the peak of his form, eventually prevailed after 5 dramatic and gruellingly long sets to win his first Wimbledon Men's title and virtually ensure that he would soon overtake Rog to become the World's number one ranked player.
