Carlos Alcaraz overcomes injury to beat Rafael Nadal and set up Novak Djokovic semi-final
It was third time lucky for Carlos Alcaraz, as he finally got a maiden victory over Rafael Nadal in the Madrid Open quarter-final. The 19-year-old outlasted the five-time former champion 6-2 1-6 6-X in a rollercoaster two hour and 28 minute match that saw Alcaraz hindered when he rolled his ankle and play stopped as medics rushed to a fan in the stands. He will now face world No 1 Novak Djokovic for the first time in Saturday's semi-final.
