Deuce. But then Felix Auger-Aliassime punches into the gauze from deep.

A third break point for Spain in this opening Canadian service game of the second set.

And then doubles again...

Pressure? Lack of concentration? A premature return from injury?

Break point Spain once more.

Saved! Superbly too. Felix Auger-Aliassime steams into the net and thunders down a smashed winner to fend off the break point. Deuce.

Double fault.

Break point Spain.

Oh dear. The Canadian looks to give his opponent the eyes, but can't direct the volley on target. He's let Bautista Agut back in this service game. But then the Spaniard whips a forehand against the tape. A let off for Auger-Aliassime. It goes to deuce.

Lovely take from Felix Auger-Aliassime, watching the ball drop out of the Madrid sky and spinning a forehand beyond Roberto Bautista Agut on the volley. 30-15.

It's taken a huge amount of mental strength from Bautista Agut.

Just the one needed as Felix Auger-Aliassime slaps long. Robert Bautista Agut leaps into the air after sealing the first set in the tie-break.

Wide from the Canadian. Now Bautista Agut senses a chance... a huge roar greets the Spanish mini-break. An even bigger one welcomes a wild Auger-Aliassime forehand.

I feel like Bautista Agut is getting more returns into play, which may count for something in the tie-break.

Big serve from FAA, dancing way out wide to get Canada on the board.

Roberto Bautista Agut grunts into a huge forehand and then stings down a couple of unreturnable serves. We're going to a tie-break.

Trumpets and the hammering together of those blow-up stick things every time Felix Auger-Aliassime wins a point. The Canadians might be outnumbered in Madrid, but they're making some serious noise. Their man cruises to a deafening hold.

Roberto Bautista Agut comes out slinging - jabbing his way to 30-0 after a couple of energy-sapping rallies and then winding down a punchy second serve before holding to love.

The 19-year-old forces Roberto Bautista Agut long and glares at his bench with a fist clenched in celebration. He'll make the Spaniard serve to stay in the opening set.
