French Open 2021: Novak Djokovic staves off Matteo Berrettini, sets up titanic Rafa Nadal clash

It was a spectacular conclusion to a match that was watched by 5,000 fans until midway through the fourth set when Paris’s COVID-19 curfew meant the crowd were obliged to leave. Novak Djokovic led 3-2 at the time and when battle resumed he suffered a nasty fall, grazing his hand, but sensed his chance when Berrettini served at 5-6.
