Japanese Kei Nishikori was not willing to lose against Roger Federer in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon 2019. He made it clear in the first set, which he won, but in the next three sets 'His Majesty' showcased his great talent and defeated the Japanese player.
However, the fourth set was very competitive. Neither wanted to give in. Nishikori, for example, won his second game after making a powerful serve that Federer couldn't stop. And that's how he made it 2-1. But in the end, the Swiss player emerged victorious (4-6, 6-1, 6-4, 6-4).
