Roger Federer said a sad goodbye to tennis when he lost a doubles match to Frances Tiafoe and Jack Sock, which put him in a team with his long-time rival Rafa Nadal. Federer had won 20 Grand Slams. Team Europe’s pair lost to Team World at the Laver Cup in London by scores of 6-4, 6-7 (2/7), 9-11.

people crying in the same picture got a lot of attention on social media. Fans have shared the touching scene along with their messages, and even the former captain of India, Virat Kohli, was moved by the moment.

Kohli posted an emotional tribute to both of them on Twitter along with the photo. “Who thought rivals can feel like this towards each other. That’s the beauty of sport. This is the most beautiful sporting picture ever for me. When your companions cry for you, you know why you’ve been able to do with your god given talent. Nothing but respect for these 2,” he wrote on Twitter.
