  1. Big hold of serve for Cilic

    *Federer 6-3 3-1 Cilic

    "COME ON MARIN!!!" shouts one bloke on his feet in front of us.

    Finally some love for the Croat. He whips off the towel, then strolls back to the baseline with a rapturous applause ringing in his ears.

    No-one wants to see this ended by an early exit. Probably not even Roger Federer.

    Cilic digs deep - emotionally and physically - as he keeps the points short, a deft touch holding off the Swiss great to seal a much-needed hold.

    Marin Cilic slipped in the first set, going down during that fantastic rally. Maybe he picked up an injury there?

    Cilic talks to his medical team, drapes a towel over his head as he looks to compose himself.

    Oh no! This is painful to watch. Marin Cilic, moments after losing the third game of the second set (a hold to 15 sealed by a Federer ace) has broken down in tears at the changeover...

    Former French Open champion on BBC Radio 5 live

    Roger looks so good - serving well and returning well.

    Cilic doesn't look like he's moving his feet very well.

  7. Federer gains early advantage

    *Federer 6-3 2-0 Cilic

    Federer breaks in second set

    Marin Cilic is sinking faster than a bag full of boulders on quicksand.

    An ace - his first of the match - steadies the seventh seed before following it up with another for 30-15.

    But then he capitulates, lumping a nervy backhand into the tramlines as Federer takes his first break point of the second set.

  11. Federer keeps pressure on Cilic

    Federer 6-3 1-0 Cilic*

    Marin Cilic lets out some frustration as he whacks his racquet into the turf at the changeover.

    Can he take fury out on the ball in the opening game of the second set? Nope.

    Federer doesn't let him near. A blink-and-you'll-miss-it hold. To love, obvs.

  13. Watching the final on the big screen

    Wimbledon town centre is a mile or so away from the All England Club and a big screen has been erected in the shopping centre. And it looks like shoppers don't want to miss out on the action. Ashley Parr is one of them and said: "It's noisy here and there's a good atmosphere with lots of cheering when Federer won the first set. Most are hoping for a Federer win here."

  14. Watch: Federer plays two brilliant shots

    This is what Cilic is up against...and why he is so frustrated.

    Federer has been looking for any chances to pounce on Cilic's serve - and he's pretty good at taking them.

  15. 'Cilic obviously frustrated'

    Tim Henman
    Former British number one on BBC TV

    Marin Cilic had his chance early on, but less than 50% of his first serves have gone in and coming into this match he was in the high 60s.

    Cilic gave his chair a whack. He is obviously frustrated with his performance and looking to show a bit of emotion to get back into this match.

  16. Game and first set - Federer

    Federer 6-3 Cilic

    Marin Cilic smashes his racquet

    If you don't at first succeed, then try, try again. That old adage works for Roger Federer as he knocks a forehand into the tramlines but then recovers with a winner for set point number two.

    Cilic might as well have wrapped it up and stuck a bow on top. An absolute gift. The Croat doubles faults on set point...

  17. Set point for Federer

    Federer 5-3 Cilic*

    Federer rips a bullet of a backhand down the line at 30-30, Cilic quick as a flash sticking his racquet in the way to block at the net.

    The Swiss looks a touch surprised it comes back, but reacts sharpish to knock a winner cross court.

  20. Cilic battles to hold serve

    *Federer 4-3 Cilic

    You've got to feel a little sorry for Marin Cilic. He's getting about as much love as a Leeds United fan on an away day in Cardiff. Or any other town or city.

    The pro-Fed crowd barely make a noise as Cilic races 40-0 ahead, looking to arrest the slide of the past couple of games.

    But wait! Federer drags himself back with a rasping forehand winner and a dropshot which had more check and backspin than a Tiger Woods approach to a green.

    Uh oh, Cilic is having a wobble. The Croat double faults for deuce, only to recover quickly for the hold.
