    Can Edmund now hold his nerve?

    Good start with another massive first serve.

    Incredible from the Brit today.

    From 15-30 to 40-30 - nerves of steel-coated steel from the German.

    It would be so easy for a person in Edmund's position to think: "I'm so close." He's just got to stay calm.

  6. *Edmund 6-3 4-4 Kohlschreiber

    The Brit rushes a forehand which lets the German back into the game.

    Kohlschreiber then launches a forehand into the Spanish orbit.

    15-30.

  11. *Edmund 6-3 3-4 Kohlschreiber

    And another one does the job - that was a tense service for the veteran German.

    That's nice.

    Point of the match from Edmund as he races to punch home a pick-up forehand cross-court winner.

    That's easy for you to say.

    30-0.

    40-0.

    Game.

  15. Miles Maclagan
    Former British Davis Cup player on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra

    That is an excellent response from Edmund. That is the thing with this competition, players don't get down, you've got the team behind you and the captain there - you hit right back.

    'Why didn't he go down the line with that backhand?' quickly turns into 'What a passing winner!' in the blink of an eye.

    Edmund, both fists clenched, crouches to the court in a celebration. Brilliant!

    The usually-placid Yorkshireman is a different beast in this scenario.

  17. Edmund breaks back

    *Edmund 6-3 2-3 Kohlschreiber

    Yes he can.

    15-30 before Edmund adds extra dip to a forehand.

    Two break back points.

    Can he?

  19. Jonathan Jurejko

    That's the first game where Kyle Edmund has faced break points today - and the first time he has been broken here in Madrid.

    Let's see how he reacts...

  20. Edmund 6-3 1-3 Kohlschreiber*

    Great counter-punching from Edmund.

    He's not snatching or champing at the bit to break back, it's going his way by just staying in the point.

    0-30.
