Alakraj vs Papi or Federer vs Nadal?
This Alakraj vs. sinful rivalry has only 12 matches, polishing 8–4 in the last five matches with Spaniads. The duality between them is similar to the historical tussles of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.Federer, who had a positive head-to-head record against most part of the tour during his Prime, struggled to leave Nadal with his rivalry at 24–16 in favor of Spaniad only.A sinner may be related to that state.
