TOMAS BERDYCH V ANDY MURRAY

MAGNIFICENT MURRY


The first set of this Australian open semi-final could have been won by either player Berdych had more breaks but Murray had more break points but no player took a break point of the other one.  The set went into the tie break and Berdych won it in the end with a quality shot to win the tie break 8-6  
Andy Murray then came straight back with a 6-0 set and there did seem to be problems with Berdychs game like simple mistakes going wrong. It seemed like Murray was beginning to show what it was that he could do.
Berdych did show that he was back in it as there was not a break in serve until Murray broke in the 6th game as he came back from 40 love to win this game brilliant. Murray wins the 3rd set by 6 games to 3 and is beginning to look good to win the match as he is changing what shots he is making whenever he can.  
Murray broke in the 12th game and won the match but did look the better player in the 4th set also as you could see. Murray pushed Berdych to further behind the baseline.
Murray seemed to be able to change the way in the second set on a regular basis and looked like the better player and reached the final because of this
