Thanks for staying with us tonight, everyone! We hope you enjoyed the coverage. Now for some much-needed rest for these two - and for our wearied nerves!
Three hours, 38 minutes. That's how long it took for a brilliant Federer attack to counter Nadal's equally brilliant defense. And I've teared up completely here. Have you?
Another great rally. We're not tiring of saying it, and they're not tiring of playing it. Just a bit too much on that backhand from Federer, though, and he trails 0-30...
AND FINALLY, he takes it! Nadal returns into the net again, this time it's crucial. And Federer takes the 5-3 break. And will now serve for the match. Championship. Yes.
WHAAAAT. WHAT WAS THAT RALLY? The entire stadium has erupted. A stunning down-the-line shot, but that's not nearly enough to describe it. 4th break point.
We're watching some great stratetic play from Roger Federer, here. He advances, like a tiger on the prowl, and there's little Nadal can do but get his racquet on. It goes wide again. 0-30 to Nadal here.
