In the next two games after that, in turn Federer brought yourself into this difficult for Nadal to lead 40-0 and to save three break-point.

Novak Djokovic loaded on to 48%, ranked No. 6 Andy Murray. Federer ranked at the bottom end, after both players far less about class as Somdev Devvarman (43%), Victor Hanescu (41%) or Milos Raonic (40%). Many people believe that Federer is suffering from "disease" squandered break-point and point it made me pay a lot.

The previous meeting was also Federer break-point advantage less than Nadal

Even with Djokovic in the semifinals, the match is considered the best of Federer this year, he also take advantage of the 4 / 25 point break-point has been, an incredibly low rate.

Meanwhile Federer can break 222 points, which utilizes a 79 point success rate was 35.59%. It is calculated as all tournaments they attended. If alone the Grand Slam, the success rate of the metabolic break-point chances to win by Rafael Nadal is 44.55% for Federer is only 29.63%. At the prize is not Grand Slam, that figure of Nadal and Federer in turn is 43.33% and 41.23%. It is the numbers say, and it shows clearly when confronted with Nadal, Federer could not keep his bravery before the decisive moment.

Such claims may, in addition to the forehand top-spin balls spin of Nadal made difficulties for Federer's backhand shot, then another cause that Federer always "turn off" before he was king of clay, is "psychological weakness" in the score, in the crucial moments of the match.
