Video - Beaten by Sinner, Medvedev doesn't realize the end of the match
Despite having managed to break Jannik Sinner in the second set, it was difficult for Daniil Medvedev to exist in this ATP Finals match. He needed a two-set victory to qualify for the semi-finals.
The loss of the first set (6-3) quickly sealed the Russian's fate. His reaction to Sinner's match point showed that he had clearly not understood that the match was over.
He then told the press conference about his opponent: "It's complicated to play against him. He's full of confidence at the moment. He puts pressure on you and you have to deal with it. I missed shots at important moments. He won the match, it's as simple as that."
