Novak Djokovic has been the talk of the town for quite some time now. The Tennis great caused a lot of controversy in Australia following the Australian Open, causing him to come under a lot of fire. However, Manchester United star, Nemanja Matic, came out to support him.

Matic is also from Serbia, like Djokovic, and uploaded a story on Instagram showing his support for the legend. “Your glory and their shame will live forever,” Matic wrote in the story, which had a photo of Novak Djokovic holding a trophy.

Djokovic and his controversy at the Australian Open

A saga that is still unfolding to this day, Djokovic’s vaccination status has caused a ruckus. He was deported from Australia after losing a visa battle with the Australian government. Now, there is a lot of talk about him being banned from the French Open as well.

Moreover, the Serb has been banned from entering Australia for three years after his visa cancellation was upheld. However, there is a possibility that the ban can be uplifted for compelling or compassionate reasons under Australian law.

Djokovic took all of this relatively well, and he made a statement asking people to focus on the Australian Open and the players competing, rather than focusing on him. He said that he was disappointed with the court’s ruling to uphold the ban, but that he will cooperate with the authorities.

Manchester United and their form this season

Like his fellow countryman, Nemanja Matic is having a terrible time this season. The Manchester United midfielder has been out of the starting eleven for quite some time, as the new manager Ralf Rangnick tries to find the best players to fit into his starting eleven.

However, he did start in the 2-2 draw against Aston Villa, but fans weren’t happy with the team’s defending as they let a two-goal lead slip from their hands, losing a chance to rise from their 7th place in the Premier League table.
