Roberto Bautista Agut needs a stepladder to see over that trophy...

Spain lift the trophy!

Green smoke and confetti bellows out around them.

Rafa gives it a kiss... all hugs and smiles, and who can blame them.

The Spain squad, donned in red and yellow tracksuits like they're about enter the Ferrari pit lane, climb up on to the stage and hold their awards aloft.

A chorus of "championes, ole, ole, ole" rings around the Caja Magica. It is followed by an emotional national anthem for the Spanish players.

Rafa Nadal is beaming like a kid who got the tennis racquet he always wanted for Christmas.

And now, for the champions... Spain!

What a reception the hosts receive from the Madrid crowd. An absolute dream for them.

They all receive a mini Davis Cup trophy. As far as runners-up awards go, that's not too shabby...

And here come Canada. Runners-up in 2019 after reaching the final for the first time in their history - a young side blessed with plenty of potential, their singles players today were aged just 19 and 20.

Presidents of the Canadian and Spanish tennis boards make their way up on to the stage to be greeted by, among others, the King of Spain.

Rafael Nadal is named the most valuable player of the 2019 finals - no surprise there. The world number one lifts the trophy aloft to whistles of appreciation from the home crowd.

What a trophy.

The base is already on stage while the cup itself is hand-delivered in a leather box.

Hope someone has been busy etching Spain's name into the 2019 box.

The stage has finally been set up for the closing ceremony. Someone's applied the Grinch filter to the Caja Magica, it's currently drowning in a gunge shade of green light.

Spain captain Sergi Bruguera, speaking on Eurosport: "When you have this moment it is difficult to describe with words - so many feelings, so many emotions you have never felt.

"Unbelievable. Imagine Roberto yesterday was in the funeral of his father, now he is here giving everything - the mentality, the spirit, giving everything for his team.

"Rafa, he is out of this world, I don't know if he is an alien or what. Not one day we went to sleep before 3am this week.

"Also to play here in Madrid was an advantage for us. You have the whole crowd, they were incredible all week and drove us to the final."

Roberto Bautista Agut, whose father passed away on Thursday, talking about Spain's win: "It's a dream day. It's been an incredible week. Each player, obviously Rafa, has been incredible. Thank you for being here."

Here is Rafael Nadal: "Amazing week, a lot of things we went through - the father of Roberto passed away... a lot of things happened.

"I could not be happier. It has been an unforgettable moment in this amazing stadium, we can't thank the crowd enough. Our team spirit prevails."

A first Davis Cup title since 2011 for Spain, a sixth in their history. And, of course, the first in this new week-long format thought up by Gerard Pique.

The capacity crowd inside the Caja Magica is absolutely loving this - most of the 12,500 fans have been cheering on the hosts in Madrid.

The whole Spain team is on the court, donned in yellow and red tracksuits, hugging each other and dancing around wildly.
