Gaël Monfils vs Fabio Fognini play at night in France Rolan Garos ! lol Arabic commentator part1

[ArjunJethwa]

IMO, they should've stopped. It looks much brighter on camera than it is in real life.

The real darkness of the sky is shown here 7:52 - and that is DARK.

[ArjunJethwa]

Monfils playing like a fucking pusher and the idiots out of breath like a bitch rofl

[nipal1234]

i think it's amazing how Fognini hits his forehand almost without using his body.

[MrJuuli97]

FUCK ARABIAN

[kelman221]

I like Monfils, but I am glad Fognini ended up winning this one.

[oanunkor]

Stop being losers, people!! This was entertaining tennis. Monfils knows how to put on a show. Stop being such squares,

[ciarraibuzz]

Over the top announcing, no?

[gorogawa]

lol at the commentators racist remarks .. he made me crack up even though i don't follow tennis

[kelman221]

@gorogawa What was he saying?

[gorogawa]

@kelman221 Nothing too offensive but things like what he says at 4:08 "that Italian sure is confident!" then "the tan (read: black) is mad already! [*chuckles*] he is getting angry..." ('short-tempered' is a common stereotype of black people in many Arab countries). And he continues to sneak in similar remarks into the commentary on this unusual match. I don't think it's that offensive, I just thought it was funny how unprofessional and inappropriate he was being.

[kelman221]

@gorogawa Damn, sounds like he is trying to be a stand-up comedian, which is very inappropriate for this situation as you said. I also had no idea of the different stereotypes black people have in different countries haha. Makes me think some of these stereotypes may have some truth behind them.

[tennisproderek]

lol @ 2:41. wtf is up with the massive bulge dude...

[tennisproderek]

[andro43]

fognini vs montanes 2011 incredibile finale!!!

[Polak1906Sosnowiec]

GAEL IS THE BEST !!!

[lley78]

Easy man, i'm french but i was for fognini, Monfils played like if he was in an exhibition game, in his face !!

[VoltaireTennis]

what the hell happened?

[falks941]

@VoltaireTennis the umpire asked the players if they wanted to stop, because it was very late and extremely dark. initially Monfils said he'd stop, and Fognini said he couldn't see. Suddenly the crowd start screaming, and then Monfils decides he does want to play! Fognini complains because he can't see, and the umpire has the nerve to dock him a point at the start of the game for delay of game! So basically Monfils cheated and the crowd influenced the referee's decision to carry on.

[BoomzBros]

nice vid great quality! ;)

[Sayuri2614]

loling at fognni,, son of a b*tch!

[bhallic24]

lol arabic commentators are the best to listen to.

[rechedelphar]

There is something strangely pleasing about Fognini's forehand. Maybe the simplicity of the motion

[ale882xxx]

monfilis is a fucking shit

[wanameetyou]

commentators said this was the match with the darkest conditions they have EVER seen! the French crowd is disgusting...

[falks941]

these two are playing extremely slowly even for an RG match. it mustve been VERY dark indeed!

[falks941]

@Rafathaman94 good shout. glad Fognini won this

[vlovesrafa]

What a fiasco this was.I saw this match on Espn2.Patrick McEnroe was right on when he said,"the referee should not let the players decide if play will continue.he should make the decision".

[kurtis79benz]

Fognini is poor man and illiterate.

[McJoelleke]

haha fognini looks so nonchalant :P

[DebbieDrums07]

can somebody tell me what happened? :P

[falks941]

[stricker20italia]

@MeRcUnO8 Fabio vuole sospendere la partita perche dice che la notte impedisce di giocare correttamente. Ma sai parlare italiano anche tu, allora non bisogno di me ;-)

[MeRcUnO8]

@stricker20italia grazie, no è che non trovavo nessun commento che lo spiegasse, se non in inglese, ma non sono ferratissimo... ;)

[stricker20italia]

@MeRcUnO8 Prego ))

[abadcito]

that was disgraceful, grande Fognini ended up winning the match, but under so much pressure, the crowd should of been more understanding but it was disgusting the way they behaved, organisers should do what is right for the player and not the crowd at the end of the day NO PLAYERS=NO CROWD.

[showti]

@abadcito And no people = no players

[kelman221]

@showti I would still play without people watching, just no more big tourneys

[Etownmu]

what the hell is going on??

[tangoseven70]

Thanks for posting--very dramatic!

[tylerbegg]

how are they trying to cheat idiot..fognini's a vag

[falks941]

@tylerbegg cuz fognini wants to stop, and they want play to continue while he cant see so that their player will win. im not too fussed about the crowd, i think monfils was cheating :/

[PeSkYmEnAcE]

JUSTICE!!!

[vule23]

[tennisarab]

@vule23

[tennisarab]

@vule23

[SugarFloydTysonJR]

Fognini deserved the win, monfils and the french tried to cheat him. Congrats Fognini!

[ncfcyellow]

@SugarFloydTysonJR I second that! I'm so glad he won, proves cheating doesn't always win. The guy making the decision looks like a joke.

[Jerfanian]

@SugarFloydTysonJR wait, how did he try to cheat i dnt get it

[SugarFloydTysonJR]

@Jerfanian When they should have called the match Monfils was starting to cramp up and he felt if they postponed the match until the next day he would be too sore to compete well (Which he was). So he convinced the ref to play in the dark instead, the crowd was also heavily on his side. Only three people cheering for fognini, his trainers. When Fognini argued he lost a point cause the ref claimed a delay of game. However, Fognini was good enough to hold off Monfils that night and the next day.

[Jerfanian]

@SugarFloydTysonJR thankss....haha go fognini!!

[dwilliams02]

This sort of happened last year too. It wasn't to this extent, but it also showed the French Open doing loads of favors for Gael Monfils. In a 4th round match against Andy Roddick, the American repeatedly complained as night quickly fell. "I can't see the ball," he repeatedly told the Chair Umpire but his complaints fell upon on deaf ears. The Chair did nothing even as Roddick missed multiple easy overheads. Meanwhile, Monfils did everything he could to incite the crowd against Roddick delaying.

[dwilliams02]

Monfils came away with a straight set win, but the way he behaved and the way Roddick was treated by both the fans and the officials was disgusting to me. At least the French Open does not seem to favor all French players in this way. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga asked to play his first match on a later day and was not granted this request. Richard Gasquet made this request as well due to winning in Nice just last weekend but was also not accommodated and ended up running out of gas against Andy Murray.

[cafoxp]

french trying to cheat?



[falks941]

@cafoxp BIG time!
