Monte-Carlo Masters

But we always knew who was going to win in the end, it was a very long match and good quality but there was never going to be an element of surprise in that match from the very beginning it was obvious it was going to be Nadal's win.

That was on hard courts. On clay Verdasco doesn't stand a chance. I would say Nadal takes it 6-4 6-3.

Important match for Nadal, after 11 months (i think) he can end his title drought

First final for Verdasco at this level, and he's 0-9 head-to-head with Rafa.
It's going to be extremely tough to beat Nadal on clay.

Are we thinking about the same match here?
There was every indication during that match that Verdasco had a 'live' chance of beating Rafa. I mean he took Nadal right to the brink that day, in what was the longest recorded match in Aussie Open history.
Go and watch it again, Verdasco definately had his chances that day. It was never cut and dried, no doubt about that.

The match was incredibly awesome if it is anything like that I'll love it.

[fedfan]

WOW! The clay season is over for everyone else unless Rafa is injured. There are only 3 or 4 guys who could have any chance and they would still have to play there very best.

[Moralspain]

Yeah he played great during the whole week, and the victory is very important for his confidence, but i need to see him playing against Davidenko, Roddick, Del Potro, Federer, Murray, Soderling, honestly he didn´t play against top players.

[Roman21]

verdasco was wanting for the game to finish... u saw how he celebrate one advantage on his knees ... Nadal is too much...

[GOA MASTER MDMA]
