Holder Federer set for Soderling showdown in the last eight

ROGER FEDERER will meet Robin Soderling in the last eight of the French Open on Wednesday.

Federer and Soderling set up a rematch of their 2009 Roland Garros decider by cruising through their respective last-16 matches yesterday.

Defending champion Federer came through a mid-match wobble to wrap up a 6-3 7-6 (7/5) 6-2 win over fellow Swiss Stanislas Wawrinka on Philippe Chatrier Court, while Soderling followed soon after thanks to an impressive 6-4 6-4 6-2 dismissal of 10th seed Mario Cilic on Suzanne Lenglen Court.
