German tennis player Alexander Zverev before the semi-final of the Australian Open against Daniil Medvedev said that the Russian had often beaten him recently and emphasized that he was counting on the support of fans during the match.
On Wednesday, Zverev defeated Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open with a score of 6:1, 6:3, 6:7 (2:7), 6:4. Zverev has played Medvedev 18 times in his career, with the Russian winning 11 matches.
— What do you expect from the match against Medvedev?
“Yeah, he’s been kicking my ass a lot lately, over the last year or so, but I’m counting on the fans to support me.” I love playing in Australia, I always talk about it. Players say New York has the most energetic, loudest and craziest crowds. But for me, Australian fans are the best,” Zverev said in an on-pitch interview.
The semi-final between Zverev and Medvedev will take place on Friday.
