    Nadal 2-4 Muller*

    Ooh. Gilles Muller has taken a big old chunk of points out of Rafa Nadal's second serve.

    The first break of the match has gone the Luxembourg man's way. And Nadal - say it quietly - has been rattled by it, a couple of forehands going long as Muller forced his way into the lead.

    Here's how the women's draw looks for the last eight:

    • Muguruza v Kuznetsova
    • Rybarikova v Vandeweghe
    • V Williams v Ostapenko
    • Konta v Halep

    Some absolute belters in prospect there.

    Murray 7-6 5-4 Paire

    Murray serving for the second set. Paire, unorthodox I think it's fair to say, chooses that moment to find two great shots to go 0-30.

    Can he break back? Murray needs a first serve. Gets one, and gets the point.

    But Paire brings up a brace of break points with a backhand winner, Murray now looking a bit laboured out there. Is he hurt?

    Paire loops one wide, a waste, and Murray then converts a smash to bring up deuce and the loudest cheer of the day!

    'Come on Andddyyy!!' is the cry, followed by the canned sitcom laugh which is the soundtrack of Centre Court so often.

    Another break point comes as Paire lashes a backhand down the line. Saved by another huge smash...

    *Nadal 2-3 Muller

    Jonathan Jurejko
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    This is a match-up between two of the most in-form players on the men's tour. Rafa Nadal, well, you know all about him. He won the French Open and has since breezed through the Wimbledon draw.

    Gilles Muller maybe less so. The 34-year-old from Luxembourg has won more matches on grass than anybody this year. Eleven matches, 10 wins.

    However... he has lost his past 22 matches against a top five player. That wretched run stretches back to September 2008.

    Ever since he fell down and asked for the trainer it was going south for Paire.

    The trainer was going to treat him, but his knee was fine.

    Murray 7-6 5-4 Paire

    Great shot from Andy Murray! Stepping in from the baseline, hip high and double handed winner fizzing past Paire.

    Paire is in a pained heap on the floor again as he is rag dolled from side to side by the athleticism and dexterity of Murray. He needs a hand getting up, Murray has three break points and needs one. Paire volleys wide, wild.

    Murray 7-6 4-4 Paire

    More spin than a party political conference as both players trade drop shots, Paire slides in to reach one and has a friction burn on his knee. Aaahhh that stings. He's going to soldier one but you can almost smell the burn from here.

    Ever done a slide tackle on Astroturf? Course you have.

    Murray holds to 15.

    Murray's been made uncomfortable by Paire. It seems he doesn't know what's coming next.

    The Frenchman is completely unreadable.

    Paire in deep conversation with the umpire at the changeover. He was denied a challenge in that last game because he took too long. A grey area.

    Murray to serve at 3-4.

    Nadal 2-2 Muller*

    It's reassuring to know that fourth seed Rafa Nadal is just as much of a klutz as the rest of us mere mortals.

    It's currently on serve in his Court One match against Gilles Muller - maybe Rafa's a bit dizzy after this unfortunate moment in his warm-up...

  12. game, set and match

    Game, set and match - Haleppublished at 15:54 British Summer Time 10 July 2017

    Azarenka 6-7 (3-7) 2-6 Halep

    Great Britain's Johanna Konta will meet Romania's second seed Simona Halep in the quarter-finals.

    Halep has just gained a 7-6 (7-3) 6-2 victory over former world number one Victoria Azarenka, the player who had eliminated Heather Watson last Friday.

    Azarenka, in only her second tournament since giving birth in December, saved three match points before Halep triumphed.

    If Halep beats Konta in the last eight then she will become the world number one.

    It's a quick turnaround on Court One. As soon as Johanna Konta and Caroline Garcia depart, their supporters scurry out of the box housing the players' guests with a line of Rafael Nadal and Gilles Muller's nearest and dearest waiting.

    A lanky fella with piercing blue eyes and an arm cast catches my eye. It's only Spain striker Fernando Llorente.

    The Swansea player, who broke his arm while cycling earlier this summer, says he is a long-time pal of Rafa and watched him here at Wimbledon when he lost to Novak Djokovic in the 2011 final.

    Let's hope he brings him better luck this year. "He going to win for sure," grins Llorente before a selfie seeker grabs hold of him. Watch that arm...

    Murray 7-6 3-4 Paire

    Quick as a flash Murray has break points on the Paire serve but the Frenchman comes forwards to volley firmly home and takes it to deuce. More shouting at himself, Murray is in animated form today.

    He knows this is a chance. Paire puts an overhead smash away with style and brings about a long, droning groan from a horror film from Murray.

    I think it was Murray anyway. Sounded wounded. Paire holds.

    Marin Cilic reached his fourth consecutive Wimbledon quarter-final with a straight-set win over Roberto Bautista Agut.

    The Croat seventh seed overpowered his Spanish opponent in a one-sided contest n court 12.

    Cilic, the 2014 US Open champion, has never been beyond the last eight at these championships but looks every bit a serious contender.

    How much of a threat could be discovered on Wednesday, when he will face either Gilles Muller or fourth seed Rafael Nadal for a place in the semi-finals.

    It started with the drop-shot in the first point - Murray went the wrong way.

    That sends a message to the opponent that you're wavering with your concentration.

    Murray 7-6 3-3 Paire

    Murray to serve, he plays an odd drop shot which is easily put away and gets Boris Becker into a spin in the comms box.

    Murray has a bit of a slip and a slide on the baseline, has he hurt his ankle? No, he seems OK. He fires wide though and angrily turns to shout at his box, before slapping himself on the thigh with a hearty crack. Ouch!

    Self flagellation. You've seen it all on Centre Court now. Break point - and Paire takes it!

    Romania's Simona Halep was serving for the match and had one match point, but she could not take advantage as Belarusian Victoria Azarenka produced a break of serve to keep their match alive on court two.

    However, Halep, a set up, still holds a 5-2 lead in the second set.
