  1. Set points Spain

    *Spain 5-3 Canada

    Shapovalov screws long. Two set points for Nadal and Spain...

  2. *Spain 5-3 Canada

    That is lovely. Shapovalov just soaks up the power from Nadal's serve and guides it back down the line and beyond the world number one.

    He gets strings to the next one too, but there's just too much zip in it.

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

    That was an almost slightly uncharacteristic game from Nadal, a big miss on the forehand.

  4. *Spain 5-3 Canada

    Denis Shapovalov digs in with a series of bounding serves to hold.

    Rafael Nadal, who has not lost a Davis Cup singles tie since 2004, will serve for the first set.

  5. Spain 5-2 Canada*

    Ruthless from Rafa. A hold to love and half an hour into this one and he's one game away from taking the opening set.

  6. Russell Fuller
    BBC tennis correspondent at Caja Magica

    It's becoming more and more ominous for Canada.

  7. *Spain 4-2 Canada

    Nadal is just cranking through the gears in this opening set of the second singles rubber.

    30-0.

  8. Nadal breaks for Spain

    *Spain 4-2 Canada

    This time he does!

    Denis Shapovalov winds up a hammer of a forehand but sticks it in the tramlines.

    Spain break.

  9. Spain 3-2 Canada*

    Brilliant from Rafael Nadal. A third break point in as many service games for the Spaniard - though he is yet to convert.

  10. Spain 3-2 Canada*

    A Mexican wave erupts around the Caja Magica. Are you not entertained!? Denis Shapovalov waits for it to quieten down before serving.

    Rafael Nadal steals a point and then the Canadian skews wide. 15-30.

  11. Spain 3-2 Canada*

    Wowsa. That Rafa Nadal serve nearly knocked the Canadian off his feet.

    The Spaniard swings down a magnificent ace and then holds to love.

  12. *Spain 2-2 Canada

    Big save, Denis Shapovalov switching up his serve. He follows up with a deft-as-you-like volley and then a forehand winner down the line. Huge hold.

  13. Spain 2-1 Canada*

    Wild from the Canadian. Shapovalov hooks a backhand. Break point Nadal.

  14. Spain 2-1 Canada*

    Better from Denis Shapovalov, leaping into a mammoth forehand winner from mid-court. But that is sublime from the world number one - Rafael Nadal skids into a backhand and then prods over a winner. 30-30.

  15. Spain 2-1 Canada*

    Loose forehand from the baseball-capped 20-year-old, it sinks into the guts of the net.

    Rafael Nadal shoots long in return and that's 15-15.

  16. Spain 2-1 Canada*

    All in the eyes. Rafael Nadal shapes one way and slaps a forehand winner the other.

    He holds.

  17. *Spain 1-1 Canada

    Rafa at his inspired fist-pumping best, teasing Shapovalov across the baseline like a PE teacher dishing out the bleep test on his students. The Canadian goes long as the world number one edges to 30-15.

  18. Canada hold

    *Spain 1-1 Canada

    And Shapovalov holds, to the sound of a grunty "come on!" - he's on the board in Madrid.

  19. Spain 1-0 Canada*

    Saved! Denis Shapovalov steams towards the tape to pluck a Nadal high ball out of the sky.

    Deuce.

  20. Break point Spain

    Spain 1-0 Canada*

    That's snappy from the world number one, Rafael Nadal picking his spots and earning an early break point.
