– [7/14, 1:59 AM] Appa (Jayakumar Rajapandian): World cup colourless this time.
[7/14, 2:00 AM] Immanuel Joseph: Oh no! It’s full of surprises 👏🏽
[7/14, 2:10 AM] Appa (Jayakumar Rajapandian): Yeah! Full of surprises but off colour and thrill.
[7/14, 2:16 AM] Appa (Jayakumar Rajapandian): Few matches really good.
[7/14, 9:33 AM] Appa (Jayakumar Rajapandian): Well done Nadal. You gave your very best and all. The result doesnt reflect the tenacity and determination.
Lets see how things go in the remaining play.
Maybe the break is good for Nadal.
[7/14, 9:35 AM] Immanuel Joseph: Ah!
Tennis > Nadal (or Federer, or any other great player) 👣
[7/14, 9:51 AM] Appa (Jayakumar Rajapandian): But Tennis will lose its charm, colour and beauty without a man called Nadal.
He is such a joy to watch like Brazil playing artistic football in all its beauty and splendour.
[7/14, 9:55 AM] Appa (Jayakumar Rajapandian): True Joe.
But I am telling how much he has contributed to the game of Tennis.
[7/14, 9:59 AM] Appa (Jayakumar Rajapandian): I will not sit throughout night to watch a player other than Nadal.
When Nadal plays with Federer or Djoko they give their very best and also bring the very best from him
[7/14, 10:15 AM] Immanuel Joseph: Hmmm… I too thought this World Cup would be boring because of Brazil’s & Germany’s (my favorite teams) exit. But then, I have surprisingly realized that I was wrong!
[7/14, 10:16 AM] Immanuel Joseph: I want to become a connoisseur of the Game rather than just a partisan fan
