Nadal tied another goose on the way to the Barcelona final

The 16 Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal won the Barcelona ATP500 final in Barcelona after defeating David Goffen with 6:4, 6:0 for an hour and 23 minutes. A rival in the battle for a record-breaking 11th in Catalonia will be the 19-year-old Stephanos Zitsipas, formerly Pablo Karenio-Busha.

This is victory number 400 for Nadal on red courts and his series of winning sets swelled to 44. So Matadora recorded 15th success in 16 games during the season. He is aiming for the 55th Red Trophy and 77th in his career to equalize with another legend John McEnroe (USA).

The King of the Clay has recorded yet another amazing achievement with success over Goffen.

Surprisingly in Nadal`s first serve game came a breakthrough, and from 40 to 15, after Goffen had to deal with his aggressive game from the main line. He even managed to solidify his breakthrough and hold on to the tornado of the Matador`s forehand, denying at first to play deep behind the main line, but in the course of the game he was forced to do so. With a 1:2 lag, Raffa raised his level of performance and won eight consecutive relegations, pointing to zero and consolidating his 3:2 advantage.

As the two of them won their next 5 to 4 appearances, it seemed that they could get a tiebreak, but Gawfen crashed at the wrong time and broke a new break just as he served to stay in the set. Nadal`s ford-winners became a more serious problem for the Belgian in the course of the match, and Matador`s backcountries were also beginning to become inscrutable for Goffen. It was through them that the King of the Clay reached two break points in 1:0 in the second set, but he only took advantage of his third chance to lead with a break in the second set. When he made his second for 4:0, there were eight winners in the second half against just one winning stroke for the Belgian.

Gophen won only two points of Rafa`s serve, and he could not even escape the gaffer even though he played two matches with his serve. Five Dusas needed Matadora to close the second set as well, unlike other matches via cricket facts when he did not show interest in the last game of welcome, this time obviously wanted to eliminate the opponent sooner and made it from the third attempt - 6:4, 6:0 in 83 minutes.
