Carlos Alcaraz moved one win away from defending his Wimbledon title after clinching a comeback victory over Daniil Medvedev to reach Sunday’s final.

Fifth seed Medvedev was attempting to avenge last year’s semi-final defeat when he fell in straight sets to the Spaniard.

But after faltering at the start of a thrilling sequel, Alcaraz soon bounced back to wrap up a 6-7 (1-7) 6-3 6-4 6-4 win.

The 21-year-old stretched out his arms and let out a roar when Medvedev fired wide on the first match point.

He will play Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti or seven-time champion Novak Djokovic, in what would be a repeat of the 2023 showpiece.

Alcaraz could become just the ninth man in the Open era to retain the Wimbledon title – after Djokovic, Rod Laver, John Newcombe, Bjorn Borg, John McEnroe, Boris Becker, Pete Sampras and Roger Federer.
