If Rafael Nadal wins the final, he will be just one shy of Roger Federer's record of 20 men's Grand Slam titles. FMTNews

Rafael Nadal celebrates the match point against Matteo Berrettini in a semifinal match on day twelve of the 2019 US Open tennis tournament at USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center.

Nadal put pressure on the underdog Italian’s serve from the start but Berrettini saved six break points to set up a first set tiebreaker. But Berrettini suddenly got tight and Nadal took advantage, wearing him down in the extended baseline rallies and capturing the set when the Italian sent a forehand long for his 20th unforced error, leading Nadal to let out a roar.

Next up for Nadal is a showdown with big-serving Russian Medvedev, who was a straight sets winner over Grigor Dimitrov earlier in the day.
