In short

Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic will face each other in the Wimbeldon men's singles final for the second consecutive year.

Alcaraz defeated Daniil Medvedev in his semifinal, while Djokovic triumphed over Lorenzo Musetti in the last four.

What's next?

The men's final will be played Sunday night, Australian time.

Reigning champion Carlos Alcaraz and seven-time winner Novak Djokovic will meet again in the men's Wimbledon final after their respective triumphs in the last four.

Alcaraz, who won the French Open last month, overcame another sluggish start to blast past Daniil Medvedev in the opening semifinal, winning 6-7 (1/7), 6-3, 6-4, 6-4.

Djokovic earned the chance to avenge last year's five-set loss to Alcaraz in the final by defeating Lorenzo Musetti in immaculate fashion 6-4, 7-6 (7/2), 6-4.

The semifinal results mean the same pair will meet in consecutive Wimbledon finals for the first time since Djokovic beat Roger Federer in 2014 and 2015.

"I know how it's going to feel playing against Djokovic. I've played a few times in grand slams, final of Master 1000, multiple times against him," Alcaraz said.

"I know what I have to do. I'm sure he knows what he has to do to beat me. It's going to be a really interesting one.

"But I'm ready to take that challenge and I'm ready to do it well."
