Rafa’s blog from London on the morning after.
by bahamaderek on Nov.24, 2009, under Rafael Nadal
I suppose that the question today to me that isn’t shown here is why did I lose? Well, it is simple. I didn’t play the way I had to play, the way I know how to play and that it is taking me to have it back.
I felt without that confidence in the right moments, I felt a bit lack on that concentration in those points and that was it.
I came back to the locker room and there was Toni and the rest of the team waiting for me. Those are sad moments, believe me. We are down, not much talking in the locker room, serious faces… Then Toni starts analyzing points and the game and well… it is not the end of the World!. He is right. But it hurts to lose!
And I am also sad for all those fans who want me to win…
