some context for this match - this was the final match of the 2005 season and Federer was carrying a tour best 81-3 record going into this final. Federer had already beaten Nalbandian during the RR stage and was also riding a 24 (!) match consecutive win streak in finals. Winning this match would have also equaled the record for highest win rate in a season (held by John McEnroe in 1984, 82W-3L).
This was Federer at his most untouchable. He had no real rival at this point. His all-court game was near perfection - watch his footwork and strokes in these highlights, it was peak effortlessness which translated into absolute dominance. His 2005 season cemented his legend status and laid the groundwork for "we might be witnessing the GOAT" whispers and created the monster of a player that never lost and won every title.
Nalbandian was no slouch and has a career resume of Herculean efforts himself, but for this year and at this time, it was unthinkable for Federer to lose. But Nalbandian turned in the peak match of his career to win what would turn out to be his most prestigious title. Truly one of the goat matches, especially on indoor hard, and the defining match of the Tennis Master's Cup's stint in Shanghai.
Federer was nursing an ankle injury in this match too. Notice his movement wasn't as superb as it used to be
Nalbandian peak match? He played better at madrid and paris 2007..
@@matiascostanzo9893 he said before this match
@@ifeanyiikpegbu6465you can’t just accept that Nalby was more gifted than Fed
Great context. A match that would have been amazing live
An absolute tennis genius. All he needed was some ambition and motivation and he would've been an all time great.
Oh is that all 😂
@@lia4191985 absolutely
U can say this to some more players

@@mohegansonNi a los talones le llega a Nalbandián!!! Uno jugaba cuando quería el otro ni queriendo ganaba
Watched it on TV when I was 12. Arguably the best TF final. And Nalbandian had such a BRILLIANT backhand. I wish they could go back to best of 5 for the ATP Finals final...
Sampras-Becker in 96 was way better.
I was 15, this is def one of the best tour finals for sure, Fed put on a clinic in 06 against Blake too
Incredible comeback by Rog! Shows how he's the GOAT, he almost came back after cramping. Nalbandian was a top tier talent whose strokes are on par with Fed, Djokovic, Nadal. Nalbandian was also a mental giant. Davydenko, Coria, Moya, Safin. No one wanted to play these guys and I mean no one. Probably took years off of Fed's career having to contend with these legends of our sport!
These 2 super talents make all of today's players look like bummers
Nalbandian was such a clean ball striker. He has, in my opinion, one of the greatest two-handers of all-time.
🐐
Not only one of the greatest two handers, but his forehand and serve don't get enough credit. He was an all court player the likes of which we had never seen before maybe other than Federer. His results show it too, incredibly consistent especially in the slams.
Nalbandian is actually so underappreciated.
No, people talk about him left and right. He was very solid between 2002-2005. However he won his two masters in 2007 where he cannot even make to QF in GS, that's why people dont praise him too much except for his Madrid run.
Nope. His peak was high but short. Couldn’t keep it together.
No majors. Didn’t take care of his body. Appropriately rated as a talented and dangerous dark horse and not much more. 😊
Maybe because he kicked that old man
LOL, he is prob the most hyped up non-major winner ever. I actually think people overhype him.
One of the best matches ever. You can’t see those now. Two agressive players on ultra fast surface making tons of winners and little errors, not scared to go to net with high volley skills.
We are left with brainless baseliners boring us on slow ass surfaces.
Yeah, the courts nowadays can be painfully slow. This gave rise to an entire generation of pushers and baseliners that offer hardly any variety.
It was such a joy to watch Nalbandian !
This is Real Tenis in pure form, magic from both sides.
Beautiful ball stricking... just, pure talent🇦🇷👏👏
God how was this 18 years ago?! Scary! I'd only been following tennis less than 6 months at this point and I remember it like it happened only a few months ago - definitely one of the best matches I can remember off the top of my head with so much drama and twists and turns, incredible!
The ease of Nalbandian's backhand is similar to Fognini's.
Best ATP final ever
This match got me into tennis. Davvid had the best backhand Ever
ESTE FUE Y ES EL MEJOR PARTIDO DE LA HISTORIA DE LOS ATP FINALS!!! Lo mejor que lo gano un argentino al mejor Federer que estaba en su prime, ese año Federer gano 2 grand slam (Wimbledon y US Open),grande David Nalbandian un titulo historico y legendario en el tenis,saludos desde Caracas,Venezuela. Buen video
no se podia mover tanto federer ese partido, problema de tobillo
Too bad that Nalbandian never won a slam ! He was so talented
No.consistency and lack of shape
It's a pity he wasn't committed. Even he said it was difficult finding a coach as he wasn't willing to put all the effort in to get to the top.
Tough to win slams in 2005 when you had peak Roger, peak Roddick, peak Nadal, and peak Safin. This era was incredibly difficult and would likely put other eras to shame! You can't tell me Safin wouldn't feast on guys like Sinner and Alcaraz today. The guy hit the ball so hard and when he wanted to was incredibly mentally tough!
They moved the ball around so much. Unlike the 30 crosscourt shots we see now days.
This is one of best matches which was played of David.
two artists
For me both Nalbandian and Agassi have the best BH in history ,he should have won the 5th set easily but kudos to injured roger for fighting to the end ,had he won this final he would have won 5 in row 2003-2007
🇨🇭🐐🎾
Btw the great Chinese fans helped also bringing roger back into the match, they still love him a lot to the moment.
Safin has one of the Best 2 handed backhand, and of course Novak Djokovic the Best and most versátile ever
Nalby was like Agassi on steroids minus the Slams 😢
El de Nalbandián es más Técnico pegaba bien hasta enganchando, Djokovic lo pega hasta desarmado esa pero técnicamente el de Nalbandián es una maravilla
Nalbandian 2002-2007 showed us on several occasions that he could reach the top if he wanted but. This match against Federer was a great demonstration. That he has never won a Grand Slam is incredible. The best Argentine tennis player since Guillermo Vilas.
calm down buddy, you're forgetting del potro. he actually won a slam beating nadal and federer back to back and was way more competitive with better results in a way stronger era than the one from 2002-2007, this was the weakest era in modern tennis (Since the 70's).
Nakbandian has beaten all of the big 3 in the same tournament. I would put him at Stan's level
@@ciaranselva Weak era jajajaja. You haven't watched tennis since 2016 I assume.
@@masters.1000weaks eras 2002 to 2007 and 2017 to presente. The most competitivo eras was in 2008 to 2016
Nalbandian 2002 wanst big deal, just reach the wimbledon final based in effort, the rest of big tournament went bad for him
Nalbandian walking on water from 3rd set onwards, just got caught up by pressure in the final. Impressive level, and this backhand
Greatest talent I’ve ever seen. His backhand was so amazing it makes you forget how great his forehand was
Me encanta como jugaba este Argentino tremendo su clase
What a great match and must say that David is so unapreciated. He was simply brilliant!!!!! ....one of federers toughest opponents. Ever
Nalbandian really didn't have any weakness you could hit too. He had an equally good backcourt and net. That's why he was so hard to beat when he was motivated to compete. Too bad that was often. He seemed satisfied going deep enough, getting a good check and jetting. As long as his rank was good enough, and he went deep enough to support his lifestyle.
His forehand tends to crack and wear down in some.momemts like pressure points
That low % serve = total weakness from miles away!!!
Best tennis match of all times ...I have never seen such match where unforced error is minimal for both players with great shots on both corners from both players...it's like video game...
Roger at top form , world no - 1 is beaten...by David...can we believe that...he has played his lifetime match.
First time I have seen Roger lose who was at top form....
I have never seen such match like this in my 20 yrs watching and following tennis and being God as Federer...I am in that Era.😅. But somehow I missed this match..or may be not remember. 😂
Wanna see more matches between nalbandian and federer in future too.........
This match might be the highest level tennis has ever witnessed.. I was starting to think it was this year's beijing sinner vs medvedev but looking back.. nope.. it's still this. Might be biased cause these 2 are also my favourite players of all time and not in the obvious order. Watching this if you forget who they are at times it looks like they are 2 baseliners.. but then they come to the net and.. 🤯
Nalby would wipe the floor with Gen Z players
@tennistv
These highlights are amazing
Very very good match reference that I just acknowledged right now
Thank you so much
Beautiful stuff.
It's REALLY an epic match~!!
I watched this match live :) its my flex.
Nalbandian is a huge troublesome to others specially for federer
greatest match on Masters Cup
You've forget Sampras-Becker final 96.
A minute of silence, for those who didn´t see this match live
You didn’t either 😂
Masters at work!
This is why we played best of 5 sets.
That backhand!! Rey david
Mi idolo del tenis david nalbandian que reves por favor en mi opinion unos de los mejores
el revés a dos manos de David es de los más bellos que he visto nunca.
Rivalry worthy of final.
Best backhand in ATP Tour(Nalbandian)
nalbandian had a really high tennis IQ
30-0 serving for it after being down 0-4 in the 5th. It's like God scripted Fed's best matches to be especially painful.
They should erect a statue to Nalbandian for managing to pull this win against the Godzilla known as Federer
Anyone who speaks of that time as a "weak era" clearly has no idea what they're talking about.
По ходу это его лучший поединок был..обыграть Федю в его золотое время камбэком!
Ridiculous!
tenkiu
Not sure if David Nalbandian or Carlos Alcaraz
@9:40 David Nalbandian Special
Nalbandian,djokovic,nadal are the players that beat federer consistently
Didn't Federer have ankle injury during this period, his ankle started to act up during 3rd set, and that is why he lost 3rd and 4th sets very easily and was being dominated at last set until he somehow came back and pushed tb despite pain ?
I think he was on crutches just a few weeks ago before this match and even in AO 06 his ankle was a bit iffy if my memory serves me right.
I wish they would have put MTO, ankle wrapping (pretty sure there was one) and commentary about that on these highlights so it would give context to people who don't know and did not follow tennis back then. Otherwise last 3 sets don't make sense, no matter how great Nalbandian was.
Due to potential Nalbandian was maybe one of the greatest of all time but unfortunately his mental strenght was not the highest. Way too many unforced errors in most of the important matches in his career like the Wimbledon final against Hewitt.
Poonished. Smooshed. Roosted and toosted.
Roger had problems serving out matches even in 2005.
"Weak era" said some people... My god.
Winning australian open beating Hewitt, Nalbandian, Ferrero and Safin is weak.
Winning australian open beating De Minaur, Dimitrov, Paul and Tsitsipas is strong.
It is weak when Verkerk and Schuetller were finalists
hi
So Fed would have another ATP finals if was B03 - much tougher to win titles back then with B05s
why it sound like theyre running on a wooden deck lol
Nalbandian should have been the Murray of his era, but was too much of a lazy curmudgeon.
I don’t understand. Did he have a drinking or eating problem? Lazy? Give me more context… was he like kyrgios? Partying?
@@moheganson Laziness. He had a particular fondness for donuts and wasn’t known to be a hard worker off the court.
🥲
Nadal never won this tournament and this is so interesting
Nalbandian so overrated by some people in the comments lol
Interesting fact I’m witnessing is that if you’d watch ATP finals right now with guys like Djokovic, Sinner, Alcaraz, Rune there will be no way for a win for 2005 version of Roger or Nalbandian.
It’s crazy how tennis improved over the last 15 years. Those shots in 2005 would be an easy win for nowadays tennis players in top 10.
Absolutely, Rune would crush prime Federer. Please.
Yes your opinion = fact.
Weakest era of tennis, no wonder it was easy for Federer and Nadal to win GS xd
Weakest era is now dude. A 36 year old dominates a bunch of incompetent 20 year olds😂
Weakest era 2016-2023 by far lol Djokovic's only younger rival with 2 GS is 16 years younger - that's a long gap of nobodies! Plus Nole didn't play b05 for his ATP tour finals or masters 1000s so easier on the body
weakest era is now buddy
@@SHVideografie yeah while Federer and Nadal were going against each other to the limits to win slams since 2005.
What a clown! This Nalbandian would eat Djokovic of today for breakfast but yet Djokovic is nearly winning all slams these days.
Weakest era by far is 2016-2023, testament being a 37yr old Federer won slams and at 38yrs still reached Wimbledon finals.
