2016 Mutua Madrid Open R2 Rafael Nadal def. Andrey Kuznetsov 6/3 6/3
Translated by Genny SS:
Rafa being interviewed: He's very happy to play in Madrid again. He repeats what he's said recently: in few places he's felt support as in Madrid [the crowd goes crazy when Rafa says that]. Rafa's happy w/how things are going (good results in MC & BCN & playing well).
Once again, he's asked about his feeling fro being Spain's flag bearer & for having had such great support for the rest of Spanish athletes.
Rafa says he feels honored & very happy with all the messages of support he's got from the other athletes.
Finally, Rafa's asked about tomorrow's UCL match that he will attend. Rafa clarifies that playing today has nothing to do w/tomorrow's match [as told by Berasategui before the match started] as he was expecting to play tomorrow, but the tournament asked him to play today. He felt ready to play and accepted the proposal to play today. He will watch today's UCL match b&w AM & Bayern & hopes for another all-Spanish final
