  1. Third break point Fery

    Fery 4-6 3-6 1-1 Darderi*

    Once again, Arthur Fery is guilty is losing composure just when it matters as his forehand lands in the tramlines for third deuce.

    But Fery is chasing down everything and has a third break point.

  2. Andreeva 6-1 6-6 (3-0) Bronzetti*

    Not the start Lucia Bronzetti would have wanted to this tie-break.

    It is just the one mini-break but she goes 3-0 down early here to Mirra Andreeva.

  3. Second break point Fery

    Fery 4-6 3-6 1-1 Darderi*

    Arthur Fery reads Luciano Darderi's drop shot and punishes the Italian with a forehand down the line.

  4. Djokovic holds

    *Evans 3-6 1-1 Djokovic

    Thwack! Novak Djokovic hits an overhead smash winner right into the corner on his way to a hold to 15.

    I bet that one felt good.

  5. Second deuce

    Fery 4-6 3-6 1-1 Darderi*

    A big serve gets Luciano Darderi to deuce and means he has now defended 10 of 11 break points in this match.

    Arthur Fery strays wide to hand over advantage but another volley gets the game to second deuce.

  6. 'Evans has got to think about changing his serve position'

    Maybe Dan Evans has got to think about changing up his serve position to give Novak Djokovic a different look.

    Just trying to break the rhythm of Djokovic.

  7. Andreeva holds

    Andreeva 6-1 6-6 Bronzetti*

    And a tie-break is what we have as Mirra Andreeva once again manages to serve to stay in the second set.

    Will we have a third set or can the teenage world number seven get the job done here?

  8. Break point Fery

    Fery 4-6 3-6 1-1 Darderi*

    Arthur Fery has to offer up another apology but this time it's to his opponent Luciano Darderi rather than umpire Greg Allensworth.

    Fery steps up to the net and slams a forehand into the body of Darderi to lead 30-0 against serve.

    Darderi battles back to 30-30 but Fery has break point following further impressive net play.

    It's Fery's 11th break point of the match but he's only broken once.

  9. Bronzetti holds

    Andreeva 6-1 5-6 Bronzetti*

    Mirra Andreeva has a real array of shots in her tennis arsenal.

    She is throwing chips and slices galore at Lucia Bronzetti.

    After bringing up a break point, Andreeva cannot take it as Bronzetti defends well and saves it.

    She manages to secure the hold to keep this second set on serve and ensure at least a tie-break.

  10. Evans holds

    Evans 3-6 1-0 Djokovic*

    Are we going the same way as the first set?

    Djokovic races into a 15-30 lead, but Evans rallies, twice serving and volleying to go up 40-30, before holding after Djokovic slides a backhand wide.

    Nice composure from Evans.

  11. Jonathan Jurejko
    BBC Sport senior tennis reporter at Wimbledon

    While Dan Evans is battling hard, the gulf between him and the 24-time major champion has been just too big.

    Evans' serve is not meaty enough to rock Djokovic, whose own serve has become increasingly potent over the years.

    Djokovic has never lost a Grand Slam match to a player ranked as low as world number 154 Evans.

    And it doesn't look like that will happen today.

  12. Fery holds

    Fery 4-6 3-6 1-1 Darderi*

    Arthur Fery defends incredibly well with a serve and volley for deuce.

    Fery has won seven of nine points when utilising the serve and volley.

    The French-born Briton was broken four times in the opening two sets but doesn't let this game go.

  13. Break point Darderi

    *Fery 4-6 3-6 0-1 Darderi

    A fair few empty seats on court two suggests those in the Wimbledon grounds feel there is no way back for Briton Arthur Fery from two sets down.

    Fery has a break point to defend after the longest rally of the match - 30 shots - ends with a lovely drop shot from Luciano Darderi.

  14. 'Surgical from Djokovic'

    David Law
    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Sounds

    It has just been surgical from Novak Djokovic.

    Dan Evans has a real job on his hands here.

  15. Darderi holds

    *Fery 4-6 3-6 0-1 Darderi

    Arthur Fery attempts a shot down the line but it hits umpire Greg Allensworth on the forehead after bouncing up off the frame of his chair.

    Allensworth is fine but Fery might not be in his good books after that.

    Fery has bigger things to worry about too as Luciano Darderi gets the hold.

  16. Game and first set Djokovic

    *Evans 3-6 0-0 Djokovic

    Novak DjokovicReuters

    Sealed with an ace!

    Novak Djokovic was a level above in that first set. He only dropped three points on serve.

    Dan Evans meanwhile saved nine of 10 break points.

  17. Three set points Djokovic

    Evans 3-5 Djokovic*

    Djokovic is in fine form. A drop-shot is followed up with a volleyed winner. 40-0.

  18. 'Persistence paid off'

    Persistence paid off there for Novak Djokovic.

  19. Djokovic breaks at 10th attempt

    Evans 3-5 Djokovic*

    At long last, Djokovic has his break!

    You can't say it hasn't been coming as Evans springs a forehand long.

    Djokovic will serve for the set.

  20. Andreeva holds

    Andreeva 6-1 5-5 Bronzetti*

    The longest rally of the match so far sees Lucia Bronzetti bring up two set points on the Mirra Andreeva serve.

    Andreeva plays a drop shot and Italian Bronzetti can't do enough with it. Another forehand into the net sees the second breakpoint disappear.

    As the teenager brings up a game point we have a pause for an incident in the crowd, but the umpire gets given the okay and we carry on with Andreeva securing the hold.
