The men's Wimbledon semifinal is featuring the Roger Federer vs. Novak Djokovic rivalry, both who have played each other 26 times so far in tournaments.

Playing their third set, both are currently tied with one set each (Federer - Djokovic: 6-3, 3-6, 4-4).

The intensity and the competitiveness is already at a finals level and both athletes are playing out a very breath-taking game.

Today's match between Federer and Djokovic, no. 1, is their first Wimbledon match, meaning they are facing each other on grass surface for the first time.

Federer leads the rivalry 14-12, but Djokovic has dominated the Swiss winning six out of the last seven matches.

Both players have played each other in 10 Grand Slams and are tied 5-5.  Today's match will show the world if Djokovic can add one game to his 5-game winning streak against Federer or if Federer still has enough fuel in the tank to win a grand slam (Federer's last Grand Slam championship was in 2010).
