2:13 I love that he calls him Federer 😂😂

Rare to see him frustrated. Great Vid!

Kudos for Nacho Forcadell, it is surely not an easy job to be the “teacher” with Federer playing the “bad student”

Federer was clearly in violation here. I admire the umpire for sticking with the rules and not giving him a pass. I think Federer knew he was being outplayed and was whining.

It goes to show everyone Roger is human & has bad days just like we do in life....

The saddest part is that the umpire doesn’t seem to have a good command of the language. He struggles to make his point, and he certainly has one. It’s a bit unfortunate.

I remember this match lol. Federer is my ultimate favourite player of all time. But he was a complete douche with the umpire. He was missing simple shots he normally would make, and still did this after all that debacle lol

One of those rare times where Federer is very clearly in the wrong...

6:22 the expression of Nacho is priceless!!! lol

Kudos to the umpire for not giving Federer special treatment just because he's Federer.

Umpire is excellent. Amazing that we find people who keep the integrity of the game intact regardless of who is on the court. Even Federer, one of the best 5 players ever doesn't get special treatment.

I remember that match very well, roger won that 2nd set in such incredible fashion, unreal shot at the end, then completely destroyed himself in the 3rs, it was so weird to see

Respect for the umpire… I’m Federer fan but no one is above game

I've never seen Federer this animated before. Wow.

So funny to see a legend of the sport frustrated like this. 7 minutes of good laughs. Great video!

Wonderful umpire, handled himself perfectly under so much pressure. Its not easy having to keep authority over these major tennis stars who hold so much star power and influence about them but he did it amazingly well. Quite disappointed with Rogers behaviour tho. I've never seen him behave like that before

federer lost his cool, right call by the ump. No party should get upset about this

He called him "Federer" 😆😆😆

This reminded me a lot that US Open final against Delpo. Roger started a discussion with the umpire because Delpo took too much time to challenge a ball. He left his momentum go, he lost his cool, his concentration and at the end the title.

Its very entertaining to see Roger angry for some reason 😂 it's the articulate way he vents instead of raging without any sense.

I remember that match clearly. That’s one of the day Federer behaved not so Federer and it cost him the match. The 2nd set come back was unreal. He should have won the 3rd set if he behaved as “Federer”. That’s a pretty weird match. Anyway he is still human.

Roger can be scary, especially when he is asking him questions

Why should an umpire remind a player about new balls?! Like wtf, he is saying out load “new balls” what else does he want ?

Cool behaviour by Nacho Forcadell one of the best umpires.. he, Mo Lahyani, Damien Dumusois..

Kudos to the umpire. Roger might do this once in two blue moons but if he does it he is not excusable for it. I have been his fan since 99 and he used to be way more reckless and hot headed back when he was young. But still this behaviour is not permissible. Nadal for me is the most cool headed among the big 3. He never even slammed his racquet out of frustration ever in his career, I believe.

Federer like "ill buy you new balls man if your worried about the balls"

"Why wasn't I warned that I would be told that there would be a warning after the warning I already got and was told about?" --Roger Federer

Hmm... not sure the umpire is there to remind Federer about new balls. The announcement comes over the PA.

We just see glory but there is also pain and struggle, I never saw feeder this angry and even young empire had a difficult times.

ATP rulebook: "Players shall not violently, dangerously or with anger hit, kick or throw a tennis ball while on the grounds of the tournament site except in the reasonable pursuit of a point during a match (including warm-up). For purposes of this rule, abuse of balls is defined as intentionally or recklessly hitting a ball out of the enclosure of the court, hitting a ball dangerously or recklessly within the court or hitting a ball with disregard of the consequences". While in this case it's kinda debatable it's a pointless argument (particularly about the path of the ball) in my view and Roger isn't right. It's a ball clearly hit out of anger and most probably landing outside of the stadium, in the grandstands or in a corridor (as in this case) difficult to fetch it and bring it back to keep the set of balls in place. That's the reason why I agree with Novak's default at the US Open. And Nacho is apologising to Roger something useful to measure the double standards of tennis umpires towards top players which some players have rightly complained about.

At 0:22, I first thought the ball bounced back from the top of the screen

0:23 damn some crazy spin on that ball, federer really is a magician

That match was excellent, they played fantastic Zverev was rock solid so Federer get frustrated.

at least roger never once threatened to kill or have the umpire not work ever again

Being always a regular calm Federer is very difficult. Anyway he is a human and things like that can occur.

The umpire was completely right here Fed was wrong..

3:12 code violation unsportsman like conduct point penalty Mr Federer

Props for the (young)ref

Maybe they should talk about butterflies.

Let his Wim 19 frustration out

Just a horrible day at the office situations here, and we got to see another side of Federer : a furious Fed.

Roger had other issues bothering him clearly.. even an all time great is not exempt to mood swings

If it was djokovic who said something like this he would have kicked out of china😢

Roger does it it shows he’s human When I did it I got suspended

Chair umpire is teaching legend that’s so funny😂

Furious Federer is equal to Danill on a normal breakfast

No one boo him as always

Federer : "I've got bigger issues, I'm missing shots." Umpire: "Sorry for that"

I've got other issues man, like I'm missing shots: Djokovic fully understands- the guy needs an ace real bad!😄

If Djokovic did all this, the whole world would be over him!

Always spoken of as a gentleman and for his graciousness, so it's truly amazing, at his age, that he reverted to teenaged hissy-fits in response to his own performance. The respect for your opponent is not there at these times, both because it is a questioning of their being better than you in that moment (can it be that they are better?)...but also it's an interruption to their flow of playing, with no apologies given. I suspect his difficulty overcoming injuries had really gotten into his psyche by 2019...making it hard to accept the lower level of play that he was able to give. If you don't like that lower level, then don't play the tournament is my thought. Do us and your opponents that favor.

federer was lucky that the ball hit not a person, otherwise would be disqualified

In 20+ years, that was probably the worst of his displays. That's it.

When you were once untouchable and as Father Time catches up with you, it's hard to take.

'well, I don't have to tell (meaning: explain) you everything, it's obvious what you did". Fantastic ref. Remained courteous and stayed in command.

That whole thing was petty 😂😂 someone definitely hurt federers feelings that day. Love Federer but holy shit lol

I think Fed’s anger here is caused by a mixture of him losing here, as well as the fallout from that heartbreaking defeat at Wimbledon earlier in the year. He didn’t show it at Wimbledon, but anybody, even Federer, would have been furious they didn’t win that match.

Fed was mad he didn't cover the line after that half volley.

Miss you MaestroRF! ❤

Mr fairplay 😂😂😂

Federer making a big deal and making excuses

lmao since when the chair empire have to remind a player to change a racket ? If Roger lose his memory then he have to see a doctor

"for 20 years" yet he still managed to become world NO.1 before. I can't get Roger's logic for the first time haha(I am HIS FAN)!

The umpire is a better man than I

My favorite chair umpire!

polite argument between player and umpire. Rare event nowadays... cursing, screaming and even racket striking are the new manners.

If djokovic did this, the medias would be blowing up. Glad this wasn't buried in the tapes

Is Federer angry again when he does not get his way. We should make a video of Roger Angry moments or when he cries when he did not win. Let us balance out things a bit & not always pick on Novak. Come on Guys be fair.

Federer is a Karen here…

Roger asking y don’t u remind me while we were talking is pure hypocrisy coz if the umpire did that Roger would retaliate saying y r u reminding me when I m already aware of the warning Federer in the wrong here

Everybody had a bad day at the office.

The umpire doing his job here. Brave and great umpiring by nacho

But that running backend from Zverev was awesome.

Djokovic fan (Serbian) behind the video? Roger said "..supposed to remind me" not "Fucking remind me". If you don't know English, come to my country. We have schools here. It's awesome to go to one.

Federeeeeerrr 😞 The toys are well and truly out of the peak here 🤣

Even in arguing, Roger is doing it in most elegant way

One of those days when you’ve fought with your wife before going to work!

Tsitsipas showing once again he's by far the best player on the planet. What a year by the young Greek. Nothing can stop his greatness

Ref was clearly nervous he was infront of fed and fed was grilling him . Should have put Roger in his place .

No one has done more for the game of tennis than Federer. He is the ultimate representative of the sport of tennis.

We have those days when everything is upside down... And as a emotional person who absolutely can't control his temper I have been advised by my near ones to have Control over temper and emotions. I know wtf is Federer going through but that only & only gives chance to the opponent. .

it’s unbecoming behaviour for a champion of his caliber. of course even greatest can have an off day and lose their perspective on the situation.federer is struggling with his game and it’s affecting him mentally

He had plenty of bad days, but whenever he was being the mood, people forgave him, but always the other way around against the GOAT Novak.

Pretty immature of Federer to take his bad play out on the ump... He was just irritated and needed someone to blame. Usually he's so good at avoiding acting like this.

wow federer is a bully these umpires get payed so little to be bullied by these tennis billionaires. Without them tennis would not have survived, Show some respect Roger.

Roger expects constant communication from the umpire.

glad don’t see Nacho Forcadell around anymore

Why is the umpire THAT submissive with Federer? He is the freaking chair umpire! Not Federer's assistant!

He is also a human man like djokovic, nadal or someone, I mean that from nole was also little bit more crazy but that’s his Charakter. At the end Nole shows big respect to zverev and that’s more important.

This is the most pissed off Federer I've ever seen.

Hey listen as soon as he said I got other issues man I'm missing shots nothing but PURE respect 🙏 Edit still respect for admitting a flaw BUT this is getting to the drama end federer take the L sometimes brother you do better than most did.😊 Another edit ok he got on that line my guess some personal issues affected his mentality(which you cant do). He was more in the wrong but respect for how he dealt with it for the most part.

The referee was right. In any case Roger is always polite, as Rafa is, I perfectly understand him, but rules are rules and are for everybody

The warning was real: the point penalty was wrong. The ball change is his problem, not the umpires.

My king, I love Federer, Bangladesh.

Federer shows his frustration when he no longer dominates the game like before. However, his outrage is not really out of control.

The first time I have ever seen Federer act like a total jerk! He truly was a jerk and he knows the rules. Hell, I've been playing tennis since I was 6 and I know the rules!

Strange that Federer behaved this way as it looked to be about Sverev playing fantastically rather than Federer playing poorly. When your opponent is that in the zone, any other reaction than acknowledging their great play is self-defeating, and a tad disrespectful to the opponent.

fed wasn't having a good day, me: first time?

i see so many positive comments here, if only djoko was here the comments would have been really different. just the double standards we have.

Federer was being outplayed and he didn't like it. He acted like a spoilt brat for not getting his own way and took it out on the umpire.
