Novak Djokovic
At the end of the first set, Novak Djokovic injured his left leg adductor, limiting his movement for that part of the match. He even went to the locker room for treatment and returned with his thigh bandaged. After a few minutes where it seemed like all was lost for him, the medication started to take effect and the Serbian was able to turn the match around from there. At the end of the battle, Djokovic made a confession that surprised many. "If I had lost the second set, I don't know if I would have continued playing." Carlos couldn't tighten the grip at those moments, he gave life to Nole, and the Belgrade native took advantage to complete an epic comeback.

The Serbian responds to the Spaniard about that injury, also confessing his concern regarding those physical issues.
Djokovic displayed an impressive version of play to dismantle an Alcaraz who gave his all to survive in the Australian Open 2025
Novak Djokovic started with physical issues in the match but ended up finding a great level in all areas to defeat Carlos Alcaraz in four sets, earning a spot in the semifinals of the Australian Open 2025: "The first thing I want to say is that he has all my respect and admiration for all he represents and what he has achieved in his still short career. He has four Grand Slams, and I'm sure we will continue to see him, maybe not as much as I would like, that's for sure," he said jokingly. "I would love for today's match to be the final. I don't know if Sascha is still awake, if he is watching us, but it is one of the most epic matches I have ever played in my life. I don't want to talk much about my injury, but the medication started to work. I didn't know if I would continue in case of losing the second set. I saw that Carlos started to doubt from the baseline, and I started to feel better."
