2019 Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic, speaking to Sue Barker:
"I think this was, if not the most exciting and thrilling final I've been a part of then definitely in the top two or three of my career - and against one of the greatest of all time in Roger who I respect a lot.
"Unfortunately in these matches one player has to lose. Both of us had our chances. It was quite unreal to have match points against me and come back and then to have a tie-break at 12-12.
"I was actually hoping I could get to a tie-break. Roger said he hopes he give people the chance to believe at 37 years old and I hope that I am one of them.
"He inspires me that's for sure."

It was a rollercoaster ride. It was amazing to see a tie-break in the end. There was nothing in that match in the end. You have to compliment both players. I was glad I got to witness this.

As Novak Djokovic parades the trophy around Centre Court, Roger Federer watches on, leaning on his chair.
I think he just wants to get inside, out of public view.

Djokovic 7-6 (7-5) 1-6 7-6 (7-4) 4-6 13-12 (7-3) Federer
More from Roger Federer: "I will try to forget this final, but it was a great match!
"It was long and had everything. I had my chances, but so did he. I have to be happy with my performance. But Novak congratulations, that was crazy.
"I hope I give some other people a chance to believe around the world. I gave it all I had and I can still stand. I hope the same can be said for all the other 37 year olds.
"My children won't be excited with the plate, they would be more excited with that golden thing. But it is all good, back to being a dad and a husband."

"I used to make the Wimbledon trophies out of different materials in my room," Djokovic adds.
He now has five of the real deal.

You talk about pride but it will be immense disappointment for Roger Federer.
The amount of times he will have lost serve from 40-15 in his career will be few and far between.
To have championship points and a 21st Grand Slam on his racquet, he will be hugely disappointed.

A deafening cheer as Sue Barker invites Roger Federer up to collect his runners-up trophy. He looks gutted.
Another big cheer for Novak Djokovic as he is presented with the Wimbledon trophy by the Duchess of Cambridge.

That is going to sting for Roger Federer after losing two Championship points.
But if you are going to have a first final-set tie-break then Roger Federer fighting with Novak Djokovic is what you want to see.

What a treat this has been.
The top seed triumphs and it can surprise no one.
Novak Djokovic has beaten Roger Federer in the longest final in Wimbledon history.
And he's beaten Roger Federer in all three Wimbledon finals that he has played him in.
Roger Federer can look back with such pride on his effort.

Novak Djokovic shows not even a flicker of emotion as victory is sealed. He shakes hands with Federer, then with the umpire.
Then he walks out onto court and just looks around. No emotion.
Bends down, kisses the grass as usual, then points to his box.

All over!!
Roger Federer spoons a return - what a cruel way to end one of THE great Wimbledon finals.
Novak Djokovic wins his FIFTH Wimbledon title after surviving TWO Championship points.
What. A. Champion.
Like he did in 2015, he celebrates by eating a clump of the hallowed grass.

As if we needed any more drama.
Djokovic lands a cross-court backhand - we're told by Hawk-Eye - after Federer hit into the net. After the call came.
Replay the point...
