Spain 0-0 Canada*
Perfect start for Felix Auger-Aliassime, storming to 40-0. The Canada fans in Madrid love that.
But it's not all straightforward for the teenager, who double faults and then frames a baseline forehand long.

The Canadian scurries in to meet a short ball and whips it beyond Roberto Bautista Agut, and follows up with a lovely, skidding volley to make it 30-0.

Spain v Canada
Some interesting changes in both ranks.
Canada have used only Vasek Pospisil and Denis Shapovalov thus far, but bring in Felix Auger-Aliassime for the opening singles rubber after an ankle problem.
He faces Spain's Roberto Bautista Agut, who left the camp earlier this week following the death of his father.
In the other singles rubber, Shapovalov takes on world number one Rafael Nadal.
The doubles will see Vasek Pospisil and Shapovalov against Feliciano Lopez and Marcel Granollers - although that is subject to change.

Image source, ReutersThis is the perfect scenario for Davis Cup organisers and the raucous home fans, who will be delighted to see Spain reach the final in Madrid.
They did so thanks to a Rafael Nadal-inspired win over Great Britain on Saturday night, when the world number one teamed up with Feliciano Lopez to see off Jamie Murray and Neal Skupski in the doubles decider in front of a bumper 12,500 capacity crowd at the Caja Magica arena.
"It was a very special moment for us, a very unique opportunity," said the 38-year-old Lopez, who was close to tears at the end. "We have a great opportunity to win this tournament here at home."
"It's really, really special," added Nadal. "Thank you to Feli [Lopez] and to the crowd who were amazing as well."

Nothing like She Wolf to put you in the mood for a Davis Cup final.

Spain v Canada
Canada's dramatic doubles decider was a little too much for captain Frank Dancevic, who said the nervous finale almost caused him to pass out.
"When I was sitting there on match point, my heart was beating so fast, I was actually starting to black out," he said.
"I was trying to control my breathing and just telling myself to breath slowly, stay calm, we're close to this.
"It's definitely an emotional rollercoaster, sitting on the chair. But at the day it's an amazing feeling having your guys perform like this and put 110% on the court."
