00:00This was the Australian Open final, with Carlos Alcaraz of Spain taking on the more experienced
00:05Novak Djokovic in the green top.
00:12And it was the Serb who drew first blood by taking the opening set, with a 25th Grand
00:16Slam title on his mind.
00:21But Alcaraz had other plans and fought back really hard in the contest.
00:28The world number one would restore parity by taking the second set, game on.
00:34There was no stopping Alcaraz thereafter as he was focused on one thing, a first Australian
00:39Open title.
00:43The 22 year old went on to take the third set, which meant it was do or die for Djokovic in
00:48the fourth.
00:5138 year old Djokovic did put up a fight, but Alcaraz was not going to let this one slip
00:56away.
01:02This was match point.
01:03And in the end, the young man's dream came true, thus making it seven Grand Slam titles.
01:13The Spaniard denied Djokovic an 11th Australian Open title by winning this one 26-62-63-75.
01:20Vinod now 186-62.
