one left-handed.

It will not even be a surprise.

He has not met you.

We win.

Come along this road.

- Should you touch it?

- Yes.

If we decide now, we can get

them up before the final.

Is not that easy?

Should not we see another side of John?

What we are experiencing right now is unique.

Tennis players are like rock stars.

The colored leaves love him.

The battle between Borg and John causes

people to ask themselves: Who am I?

Gentleman or the rebels?

The weather is beautiful this

morning at the men's semifinals.

Bjrn Borg meets American

Brian Gottfried.

And then a showdown between two of the

most controversial players of the day, -

- John McEnroe and

compatriot Jimmy Connors.

First serve in the Wimbledon Semifinal.

0 - 15.

15 -40.

Party and other sets for Gottfried.

Bjrn Borg is hard against Gottfried.

Unexpectedly difficult.

Listen once. I can not remember

any other Wimbledon match, -

- where you have so much hesitated

Out.

Out.

- Hvabehar?

- It was out of line.

- It freaks up with chalk.

- The ball is judged out.

That was a correct order.

You can not be serious!

The ball was on the line!

It freaks up with chalk!

He saw it. Everyone saw it was inside.

You can not judge it out.

They get a warning for

unsportsmanlike behavior.

Borg does not play beautifully,

but defeats the useed Gottfried.

Congratulations on the final place.

Now either Connors or McEnroe are waiting.

What do you think of

McEnroe's opinion about -

- The machine Borg

will soon collapse?

I'm like everyone else.

I'm not a machine.

- You're a bunch of shots!

- Hold your jaw.

Stay on your own court.

You should close the ass.

Kraft Idiot.

You can just go home.

- Play some tennis!

- You can even play tennis!

John, congratulations on the victory.

What was a behavior?

- Can not we talk about my game?

Here's more people talk about your

behavior than about your game.

- At least, you're talking a lot about it.

- Do you think it's deserved?

No.

- Do you regret your behavior?

I regret that I have to

sit here and talk to you.

Do you expect someone to

bump you against Borg?

I am well aware that

he is your hero, -

- and now you have to use a villain.

- Can you control your temper?

- Should not we talk about tennis?

- Do you enjoy being the villain?

- Can you control your temper?

You should close the ass.

Do you follow the matches?

You do not understand what

it takes to play tennis.

I give everything I have in me and

leave it all out on the pitch.

You just do not understand that.

Sir. Castle?

Sir. Castle?

We are landed.

Where are we?

Did you have a good flight?

It is the TV team from Argentina.

Bear.

We start by telling you that you

are the world's best player, -

- that you have four Wimbledon titles

and that you are now chasing the fifth.

In the meantime, you play the garage

door like you did when you were a child.

I do not remember

which door it was.

- Can not you just pick one?

- No, it must be the right one.

Wait a minute with the camera.

"It's not that important.

- It is very important.

I have to think about it.

Now you have won Wimbledon twice today.

How does it feel?

It feels good.

Go your way, Labbe.

Breathe.

Now we'll do it here.

Do not hurt yourself.

You behave like...

You behave like a teapot child.

You are skiding on those who care about you.

Go out and hang your head.

Then you will lose.

Is that what you want?

Then you may as well stay out.

Say you're hurt, -

- or admit you do not

have your nerves...

Be quiet.

I know what you're trying on.

It is not necessary.

Everything I have done

has led to this moment.

One match left.

One ball at a time.

Five minutes, gentlemen.

Turn down for McEnroe's microphone.

- They change the page constantly.

- It's an order from the management.

It is the perfect showdown.

The backline player against the net runner.

Cold, Nordic blood against

New York's naughtyness.

The polar bear against the butcher's dog.

15,000 spectators and many millions

in front of the television screens.

Right now the whole world is waiting for

the giants to make their entrance -

- like two gladiators.

Gentlemen.

The first on the pitch is McEnroe.

The spectators buher at him. It's the

first time at a Wimbledon final.

Now comes Bjrn.

I hope Bjrn feels that you have

the whole of Sweden behind you.

Here he is, Bjrn Borg!

This course belongs to him.

The final we all have been waiting for.

Borg is a living legend.

There is enormous pressure on him.

He has won four times, -

- but the fifth time

will be even harder.

Silence, thanks. Silence.

McEnroe server. Clear.

McEnroy's service and flight game

determines the game's first game.

- Out.

- McEnroe wins the party!

McEnroe comes amazing

from the start.

McEnroe server.

Party McEnroe.

Borg is having trouble with

McEnroy's left hand servant.

It's like trying to

catch a hummingbird.

Borg looks stunned out.

McEnroe humbles Borg and

makes him seem slow.

Borg is completely

thrown down by McEnroe.

It is sad to say, but the

beginning of this battle -

- suggests a change of faith.

Set-up for McEnroe.

Bjrn Borg is in big trouble.

Borg has been transformed into second set.

Such! Bjrn Borg

attends to the ball!

Lot and other set Deposit, 7 -5.

THIRD SITE:

That is exactly what

Bjrn Borg wants.

- McEnroe seems shaken.

It all changes when you fight

like a castle from the bottom.

It undermines the

opponent's self-esteem.

- 40 -15.

- Two seatballs to Borg.

- Out.

- Lot and third set Borg.

Bjrn Borg wins third set and

thus leads 2 -1 in sets.

We are now going to a fourth set.

If Borg wins, -

He is five-fold

Wimbledon champion.

FOURTH SEA Error.

I thought otherwise,

it looked good enough.

30 -40.

Second double fault.

It's out!

It seems as if it raises one of

McEnroy's notorious rage outbursts.

Out.

Out.

I think the judge is wrong.

How does McEnroe react?

30 -15.

Come on, John!

Time.

It's a good match.

Just play your own game.

Served by McEnroe!

McEnroe shows his strength now.

McEnroe leads 3-2 in the fourth set.

Uha, it was out.

- Come on, John.

All the pressure is on the Swede.

How did McEnroe reach it?

- Party Borg.

- Thus it says a 5.

What a return!

Now Bjrn Borg is ahead.

- An ace from Borg!

"He can almost taste the victory now.

Good advance

40 -15, match ball to Bjrn.

Now the server sponsors the championship.

Two match balls in a Grand Slam finale.

It has never been the fault of Bjrn.

Silence, thanks.

- No, you're wrong.
