Spanish ace Rafael Nadal staged a terrific comeback to defeat David Goffin at the Madrid Open on Thursday. The 21-time Grand Slam champion saved as many as four match points, winning 6-3, 5-7, 7-6(9), in three hours and nine minutes. Nadal will now face his countryman Carlos Alcaraz in the quarter-final. The former is eyeing his 37th ATP Masters 1000 title.

Nadal won a total of 120 points in the match. He smashed as many as seven aces. He won 69% (75/109) of the service points and 39% (45/116) of the return points. The Spaniard clinched 55 out of 72 points on first serve. His opponent Goffin converted three out of five break points. He recorded less double faults (2) than Nadal (4).

Record

The third set went into the tie-break after Goffin won the second. Although both Nadal and Goffin were neck-to-neck in the tie-break, the former ended up on the winning side. Nadal improved his tie-break record to 10-0 (since Madrid Open moved to clay in 2009). Notably, Goffin could have become only the fourth man to beat Nadal from match point down on clay.
