( CNN ) -- Defending champion Caroline Wozniacki suffered a straight sets defeat to unseeded German Julia Goerges in the semifinal of the $ 2 million WTA tournament in Dubai Friday . Denmark 's Wozniacki had no answer to an inspired Goerges , who won 7-6 7-5 to set up a final clash against Poland 's Agnieszka Radwanska . Sixth seed Radwanska had earlier continued her fine recent form to beat Serbia 's Jelena Jankovic 6-2 2-6 6-0 in the first semifinal . Goerges , whose passage through the draw was helped by the withdrawal of top seed Victoria Azarenka through injury , was rewarded for a display of attacking tennis . `` It 's amazing to beat Caroline . I tried to stay aggressive and attack the short balls , '' Goerges told Eurosport . Goerges had beaten former World No.1 Wozniacki in their two previous matches , both on clay , with the Dane having the better in their other clashes on hard courts . She opened up an advantage in the opening set , but Wozniacki broke back to force a tiebreak , which Goerges largely dominated to win seven points to three . The second set followed a similar pattern of closely contested games , but Wozniacki looked set to level as she carved out a 4-2 lead . But a fruitless challenge on a line call disrupted her rhythm and Goerges broke back . A further break gave her a 6-5 lead and she served out for victory . The 22-year-old Radwanska will be a tough opponent for Goerges in Saturday 's final after she saw off Jankovic in a topsy-turvy match . She swept through the decider without dropping a game to win after one hour 43 minutes .
