DJOKOVIC 6-4 7-5 6-3 - GAME, SET & MATCH - Djokovic paints the line with a flicked backhand passing shot across court and it brings up two match points for the world number one ... the first goes begging when he slaps into the net but Djokovic does wrap up the match on the second time of asking when Federer slaps a forehand into the net.

DJOKOVIC 6-4 7-5 5-3 - Despite being trumped by a lob in the opening point of the game, Federer holds with a lob winner of his own to force Djokovic to serve out the match. IS there some drama left in this match yet? Certainly the crowd are hoping so, getting firmly behind Federer now ...

DJOKOVIC 6-4 7-5 4-2 - BREAK - An ace followed by a double fault from Federer helps Djokovic on his way to two more break points.

Another forehand long from Fed hands Nole a third chance and this time he does break when Fed hits into the net

DJOKOVIC 6-4 7-5 3-2 - Djokovic lofts a lob into the air in a practice-like manner for Federer, who has little trouble dispatching the smash, before slapping down a second double fault and letting Federer back into a game he lead 40-0.

DJOKOVIC 6-4 7-5 2-2 - Federer produces his best game in a long time, racing through a service hold to love to level up. Where was that kind of serving in the second set?

DJOKOVIC 6-4 7-5 2-1 - Another forehand gets sailing long of the baseline as Djokovic holds to 15 to sneak ahead once again. Whoever comes through this semi-final, and it's increasingly looking like Djokovic, will have to up their level of play considerably if they are to even come close to Rafa on Sunday

DJOKOVIC 6-4 7-5 1-1 - The swirling wind takes the ball away from Federer as Djokovic goes 0-30 up. Fed gets a point back when Djokovic hits into the net before making a wry smile. Fed gets things back on track however with a forehand winner and then goes on to hold to level up at 1-1

DJOKOVIC 6-4 7-5 1-0 - The odd atmosphere continues on Chatrier as Djokovic holds to 15 for the opening game of this third set. No-one quite seems to know what to make of such a error-riddled match from a subdued Federer, even the two players looks perplexed

DJOKOVIC 6-4 7-5 - SET - A backhand sent at least a metre and a half long of the baseline by Federer hands Djokovic two set points ... But he only needs one as Federer runs round the ball only to slap a regulation forehand long down the centre of the court. What a bizarrely chaotic set.

And we're on serve once again

DJOKOVIC 6-4 4-5 - BREAK - That's better! Federer gets a ripple of applause from the crowd with a stunning backhand down the line to bring up two points to re-establish his break advantage once again. And then he gets the crowd up on their feet with another vicious backhand to break again. He will serve for this second set after the change of ends

DJOKOVIC 6-4 4-4 - BREAK - A bizarrely underwhelming game from Federer as he concedes his serve to little noise from the crowd with a forehand into the very bottom fo the net. We are back on serve in this second set and Djokovic has had to do almost nothin gto get himself back in it

DJOKOVIC 6-4 3-4 - Djokovic has a forehand over-ruled long (immediately accepted by the Serb) to hand Federer to more break points. He saves the first when Federer hits long and then also the second with a forehand drive volley winner across court.

DJOKOVIC 6-4 2-3 - Much better on serve again now from Djokovic as he holds to 15 by working his way inside the basline and drilling a forehand winner down the centre of the court. He's back in touch on the scoreboard and looking more energetic again now

DJOKOVIC 6-4 1-3 - BREAK - Djokovic gets one of the breaks back as Fed suffers a total blip in concentration and chucks away his serve to love. This match is so changeable

DJOKOVIC 6-4 0-3- BREAK - Djokovic is looking oddly flat in this second set as he hands Federer another break point. One that Fed takes full advantage of, pushing Nole around the baseline and forcing the error from the Serb - a forehand long. It is accompanied by a huge yell of "come on" from Fed. He's a double break up in this set now

DJOKOVIC 6-4 0-2 - Much better from Federer this time as he consolidates his break with a rapid hold to love, sealing the game with an ace down the centre of the court
