Djokovic joins Alcaraz in Olympic final!

The match was expected to be more closely contested, and some even imagined a surprise. But it was not to be.

The imperious Novak Djokovic had just silenced a slightly disappointing Lorenzo Musetti to reach the Olympic final (6-4, 6-2).

After worrying about his physical state in his quarter-final against Tsitsipas, the Serb didn't seem to be bothered in the slightest.

Although very tense (he suffered 3 warnings in the match), Djokovic was able to do the essential.

After a very high-level first act, Djokovic lost the thread a little at the start of the second set, before recovering to win the last 5 games of the match.

Immortal, "Nole" is now just one step away from fulfilling his Olympic dream.

To do so, he will have to find the key against Carlos Alcaraz in Sunday's final.
