Can somebody translate the comment, please?

Yikes. He looked so good in the first set…and then his game unraveled like the smashed racquet–broken and irreparable. Sad to see it.
Dunno, but looks to me like Murray has this in the bag.

translation: “i’ve never seen something like this. the last time federer did this was in the juniors… Whoever takes up the sword shall perish by the sword… This is the forehand that brought joy and success to federer so many times, however, now… poor racquet. as a junior federer used to smash racquets, he was annoying, unreasonable, he had arguments with the umpires, with his parents… then he went to the other extreme, became the synonym for tranquility, but there… the old, small federer is emerging.”

Mika — thanks for the translation.
Unbelievable match. And really, that was not any ol’ racket smash. He did it with feeling. He CRUSHED that racket. We’ve all seen racket smashes, but not everyone can turn it into a pretzel instantly. Well done, Roger Federer.
Part of his reaction, of course, is because he despises Djoko and hates losing to him. Roger’s forehand failing him, yet again, during a match against Nole was simply too much to endure. And I suspect his back is killing him.
I thought his press conference comment about how he’s had “five coaches in two years” was quite telling. He’s frustrated with his coaching situation as well. He can’t just fall into a coaching relationship the way Roddick, for example, is able to. And he’s been without one for so long.
It seems like he feels a bit lost.

I don’t think that from when Federer won his first Slam and be the no.1 player I’ve seen him throwing rackets. This was a shock for me.
