Federer, Nadal react to classic Match for Africa promo

Hopes of another Roger Federer–Rafael Nadal Australian Open final were dashed this week at the hands of Dominic Thiem and Novak Djokovic, but fortunately for fans of the rivalry, there is a "Fedal" match coming  right up.

Federer and Nadal are set to duel it out in Cape Town, South Africa, on Friday, Feb. 7, in the "Match in Africa," the sixth installment of the Match for Africa exhibition series—and Federer's first match in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The evening's purpose to to raise money for education in Africa. The Roger Federer Foundation reports having spent $52 million on education programs such as School Readiness Initiatives.

In Mexico City in November, Federer and Alexander Zverev set the record for the most fans at a tennis match, 42,517. Just a couple of months removed, the Match in Africa hopes to become the new leader, with Cape Town Stadium able to host 55,000 people.

This edition comes almost 10 years after the first Match for Africa, played between Federer and Nadal in Zurich. So it also provided an opportunity for the greats to look back together at one of the most famous tennis clips on the internet: from when they were filming a promo for the original match, but kept ruining the take by laughing at one another.

"We can't see you—we can't wait to see you," Federer said this time around, somehow screwing up the same video a decade later.

The Cape Town version will be one close to Federer's heart, his mother, Lynette, being from South Africa. In an undercard doubles match, South African comedian and Daily Show host Trevor Noah will be teaming up with Nadal, taking on Federer and Bill Gates.
