Subjunctive versus Infinitive

If the subjects are exactly the same in meaning in both clauses of a sentence, que is omitted and the subjunctive is replaced by the infinitive: Je voudrais jouer au tennis. (I want to play tennis.)

However, you say the following: Je voudrais que nous jouions au tennis. (I want us to play tennis.)
