Roger Federer defeated fellow Swiss Stan Wawrinka to reach the Australian Open final and stay on course for an 18th Grand Slam title.

The 35-year-old will face Rafael Nadal on Sunday if the Spaniard beats Grigor Dimitrov in Friday’s semi-final.

The Swiss, returning from a six-month lay-off to rest his left knee, last won a major at Wimbledon in 2012.

He is the oldest man to reach a Grand Slam final since Ken Rosewall did so at the 1974 US Open at the age of 39.
