[Kenny]

Way to many crap shots from Murray

Set point now for Ferrer and gets it

 

[lemonjelly]

Ferrer wins the first set.

Good match though. Could go all the way.

 

[lemonjelly]

Murray can win if Ferrer is on the 2nd serve a bit. Murray really needs to pressure the 2nd serve.

 

[Kenny]

2nd set went to a tie break and Murray looked dead in the water and on his way to losing but somehow manager to win it and has now won the 3rd set 6-4

 

[Langers]

Watched the tie break in the 2nd and all the 3rd set. Showing real maturity and playing a very composed game. Looking good for him at the moment.

 

[Kenny]

The quality at times is fantastic. Just when you think one of them is being put out of the game, they step it up.

 

[Nando]

101mph backhand! Foooking hell.

 

[Kenny]

rain stops play at 5-5 in the 4th set

 

[Penk Wolf]

I though they were on centre court?

 

[Kenny]

They are but the roof is open. They have decided to keep the roof open as its just a shower. If they closed the roof, it will still be a delay of around 30 minutes

 

[Penk Wolf]

30 minutes to shut a fucking roof, what's it do cover London!

 

[Kenny]

It takes about 15-20 minutes for it roll shut and then something technical happens with the air or some bollocks that I wasn't paying attention to

 

[Langers]

I'd imagine it's probably like de-pressuring the bathroom after my fat uncle has 'paid a visit' there. Half an hour is nowhere near enough.

 

[Kenny]

anyway, game about to re-start

 

[Kenny]

Murray needs to hold his serve to take this set to a tie break

 

[Kenny]

Tie break it is

 

[Kenny]

Why the fuck have the BBC just done a slow mo on a scruffy git pulling a stupid face!! (no it wasn't Murray)

 

[Langers]

Tense stuff. Come on Murray!

 

[Kenny]

Match point for Murray

 

[Langers]

FINISH HIM
