4-6. Fuck, fuck, fuck.

Ivanovic played well, her groundstrokes were powerful and she served well so she was able to put a lot of pressure on Daniela and dictate a lot of the rallies. If Daniela got a first serve in she was able to control the rallies and, especially in the second set, she won a lot of points on her first serve. Unfortunately, she didn't get enough first serves in so Ivanovic was able to attack the second serve and she usually stood about a metre inside the service line so she took the second serve early and was then able to take control of the rally. Daniela won 68% of her 1st serve points, Ivanovic 69%, but Daniela won only 23% of her second serve points while Ivanovic won 43%.

Still, Dominika had a good win so it's level at 1-1. Hopefully, Daniela's able to win tomorrow and Slovakia wins the tie. It would be great to wrap it up before the doubles but the important thing is that Daniela and Slovakia wins.

Geez,I've been waiting over 3 years for Daniela to play Ivanovic again,and she plays like that?

Lay off the mind games next time.

Slovak admitted that Ivanovic won deservedly. "It was a very tough match. Servovala Ana very well, missed me better interlude. I have good moments alternated with weaker. The biggest difference was the percentage success of the first filing. I usually go through a second service, which water mill was the rival, who then pushed me. Ana played its solid tennis, anything extra not surprise me. My performance was not optimal. It is always frustrating when the training Makati, but in a match you do not to your liking. I will try to defeat this leave behind and concentrate on Sunday's," said Hantuchova.

Slovak captain Matthew Liptak was 1:1 with the state after the first day happy. "It could be better, but worse. I am glad that in Sunday's singles will have on the play. I believe that we will go until at least Deblov. It's still open 50:50 '. Dominika Cibulkova against Jovanovski's not easy. Bojana played superbly in the first sete Domča and has long been struggling to find a game concept. Since the middle of the second set she started to play more aggressively, speed up the game and managed to turn the negative trend. In the third set Jovanovski left and physically. I suppose that on Sunday it Serbian captain to stand and instead will play Jelena Jankovic. Domča could sit Ivanovic game better than Daniela, which today nepodržalo filing Ana contrary servovala great," said Liptak.

Ivanovic was satisfied after the duel. "I am glad that I managed to fight for Serbia, an important balancing point. Play against Daniela, in addition to thunderous home crowd is not easy. I played aggressively, I dictated the pace. It was one of my best Performances in the Fed Cup and a good springboard into the clay season, which is already very looking forward, "said Ivanovic. Serbian captain Dejan Vranes was 1:1 with the state only partially satisfied. "Secretly I hoped that it could also be 2-0 for us. Bojana, however, unable to cope with pressure overload. It is a young player and was unable to keep pace first and the beginning of the second set. Cibulkova ran a very good match. I am glad that Ana after a very good performance stride. Daniela is a very difficult rival, but Ana did not let her on her game. We'll see how tomorrow will feel Jelena Jankovic, but it is possible that it will build into singles."

"For us it is a very important point and I'm glad I got it. We both started nervously, but then it faded from us. With my performance in a challenging atmosphere, I'm satisfied. She I keep the rhythm and gaming comfort. I did not let Daniel to its typical game and overall it was one of my best performances in the Fed Cup. The atmosphere in our team is very good advice and we would come away with a victory here," said Ana Ivanovic.

"It was a very tough match. Ana played very well and won deservedly, was better. I had a chance, but I alternated good and weaker moments. The biggest difference is the first administration - my service was not the best. I will try to defeat this leave behind , although it is not easy, and pull round tomorrow," said Daniela Hantuchova.

"Ideally, if we led 2-0 after Saturday, so the state of 1:1 am only partially satisfied. We'll see how it would feel Jelena Jankovic in the evening. Accordingly, we decide whether resumes on Sunday," said Captain Srbiek Dejan Vranes.

"I expect in Sunday singles enters Jankovic. I'm glad it's not 1:1. It could be better, but worse. The match is still completely open," said Captain Matthew Liptak Sloveniek.

"It was different tennis in all sets. I came to court a little nervous, I felt pressure, it was on my part smooth. The beginning was bad, rival pushed me, I was running as dirty 'underwear'. The state of 0:2 in the second set I was angry at myself, I said to myself, that still does not practice to me Jovanovski blasted out of court. I started to 'heckle', the captain said to me, I went to the ball after the ball. I started to play my game i am better servovala returnovala, I was more relaxed and I played what I had. Then I dominated on the court," said Dominika Cibulkova, who as one of the factors identified its successful turnover perfect atmosphere:

"The spectators were fantastic. In the third set I had goosebumps at times. Even for the fans I'm glad I was able to get the first point."

I thought it would be this scenario


Never mind. I had fun and was glad to see them, even though only from distance

We have score at least 1:1 thanks to Dominika. We will see tomorrow....


All players were beautiful. Ana like I'm used to see her in TV.... Daniela looked lovely in those purple dress. I would say Daniela and Dominika are more beautiful in person, when I saw them live. Daniela looked like Kournikova a bit on the court, maybe those dresses...


I was yelling Daniela's name like a fool to cheer her up in the end but it didn't help

Surprise, surprise, Jankovic replaces Jovanovski.
