It all happened today at the main stadium, Rod Laver arena. Istomin defeated Novak 3:2 (7:6, 5:7, 2:6, 7:6. 6:4). In the following round the 29-year-old Istomin who has 117th place in the rating will meet Spaniard Pablo Carreno-Busta. It is interesting that Djokovic  has not lost any match of Australian Open since 2014 and six times won the champion title,  last time in  2016. After his tremendous victory Denis said that he feels sorry for his rival who has to go through very difficult moments. And Denis admitted in a conversation with our correspondent  Christophe Mallet that he  is still overwhelmed
