Rafael Nadal pummelled world number one Roger Federer into submission as night closed in at Roland Garros on Friday to reach the French Open final at his first attempt.
The muscular Spaniard celebrated his 19th birthday by beating the Swiss 6-3, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3.
The victory gives Nadal a chance to become the first man since Mats Wilander in 1982 to win the title on his Roland Garros debut.
