In the brief video, both Nadal and Federer encourage Fognini to ‘only think of positives’ and believe in himself as he gets ready for the match.

Later, Roger Federer shared the video on his Twitter account, with the caption, ‘Coach #Fedal’.

No question that the advice they give is great, but what is greater is perhaps seeing Federer and Nadal come together to bolster Fogninini’s confidence. And Twitterati is definitely in love with the #Fedal coaching duo:
The best coaching duo ever 😍😍😍😍

When Federer uses the #Fedal hashtag he becomes one of us as he embraces how much we absolutely love seeing those two work in tandem. It’s Christmas in September!

I would also like to be coached by Roger Federer every time I’m being too negative about something.

If I had two of the greatest tennis players of all time coaching me, I’d just be quiet, listen, and thank my lucky stars 🤔
