  I never expected to see this kind of event available through Love Film so was delighted when I this and the semi final were available as I han't managed to see either and they were tipped as some of the best matches of all time. Whilst neither Novak or Rafa performed to the best of their ability throughout this match, it was still a fantastic sight to behold even though I knew the outcome before I started watching it. It initially seemed as though Rafa was going to take the title without any difficulty as he won the first two sets comfortably but, just as he did in the semi final against Andy Murray, Novak rallied and came back fighting. No one could ever accuse Novak of not deserving the win as at one point he looked like he could no longer lift his legs to catch the serves and returns of Rafa but then the tables turned and, although Rafa never looked down and out, he suddenly couldn't win a point. Both men were deserving of the win and whilst I don't think it was the best match I ever saw, it was certainly worth the watch for all tennis fans. You should rent it for no other reason than to see the trophy ceremony as both players struggled to remain upright throughout the sponsor speeches! Rafa looked like he might lose it at one point and chairs were eventually brought for both players before their legs gave up on them! They had just played 5+ hours of tennis for goodness sakes give them a break from the speeches!!!!
