*Djokovic 3-3 Goffin (30-30)

From 30-0 to 30-30, as a forehand pass and a Djokovic drop shot which doesn't even reach the net allows Goffin a way back in.

*Djokovic 3-3 Goffin (30-40)

A forehand winner down the line by the Belgian, and it's BREAK POINT!

Djokovic 3-4 Goffin*

GOFFIN BREAKS!

Djokovic goes wide with a forehand and Goffin has the first break of the match!

1562762787

Djokovic 3-4 Goffin* (30-40)

BREAK POINT DJOKOVIC, as Goffin goes long with a forehand. The Belgian challenged Djokovic's forehand before, which caught the line. 

Kieran Jackson10 July 2019 13:46
1562762842

Djokovic 3-4 Goffin* (40-40)

BREAK POINT SAVED! Rock solid from Goffin, who saves the break point with a deft backhand drop volley!

Djokovic 3-4 Goffin (ad Djokovic)

Another break point as Goffin, under pressure, hits a forehand into the tramline...

*Djokovic 4-4 Goffin

DJOKOVIC BREAKS BACK!

A beautifully constructed point from Djokovic gets him back on level terms, as a deft volley of his own finishes it off at the net!

Back all-square.

Djokovic 5-4 Goffin*

A comfortable hold for Djokovic to 15, and Goffin will now serve to stay in the first set...

Kieran Jackson10 July 2019 13:53
1562763409

Djokovic 5-4 Goffin* (15-40)

Two set points for Djokovic, after four lengthy points on Centre. 

Djokovic wins the crucial one at 15-15 with another drop volley, and Goffin then nets a forehand. 

Big moment here...

*Djokovic 6-4 Goffin

DJOKOVIC WINS THE FIRST SET!

Goffin sends a backhand down the line wide and Djokovic wins three games on the trot to take the first set!

The Belgian, after starting off so aggressively, was just drawn into some long rallies towards the end there, which will always favour Djokovic...
