Djokovic defeats Federer in 3 sets to reach 8th final in Melbourne

Novak Djokovic continues in his stunning journey through men's draw at the 2020 Australian Open when he defeated also Roger Federer.

Djokovic seems to be unstoppable this year. He lost a set only to Struff in the first round and from that moment none of the players were able to take a set away from the Serbian. Neither was 20-time Grand Slam champion, Roger Federer.

The Swiss had a great start into the match when he led already 4-1 and 40-0. However, Djokovic was able to turn the set when he decided it in a tie-break winning 7-1. World number 2 only improved his performance during the match.

In the second set, he missed the first 3 break opportunities. But in the 10th game, he converted his 4th breakpoint to win the second set 6-4 and gain a massive advantage in the match.

In the 3rd set, Djokovic continued in a great performance, hitting 6 aces and winning a total of 78% of points after the first service. His opponent was not able to keep within distance with Djokovic who broke Federer's serve in the 6th game. Then the Serbian confirmed his 2 service games to win the set 6-3. In the final, Djokovic will meet the winner of the match between Dominic Thiem and Alexander Zverev.
