    So impressed with Cilic (but not surprised). Except for that double fault on Federer's set point, every time Roger has had a sniff in this game, Cilic has served his way to safety. Fair play.

    I'm expecting him in to win this set, whether it be by breaking Roger or on a tie break, and dispatching Raonic in the SF (assuming it is him) fairly easily.

    And here's yet another example. 15-40, two break points for Federer. Cilic comes up with three consecutive aces. Too good.

    I'm watching the Querrey v Raonic match (even though they've got Inverdale "commentating" :emoticon-0121-angry) and it's been thoroughly entertaining. A Raonic v Cilic semi would be fascinating.

    It won't top the 2008 final against Nadal and the 2009 final against Roddick, but this could be the third greatest game at Wimbledon involving Federer - regardless of who wins this fifth set. Such a great match, which Cilic definitely doesn't deserve to lose, and Roger doesn't really either.

    Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!

    I'm shattered, and I've only been watching it.

    Brilliant match. Gutted for Cilic - what a performance. But R-Fed the master.

    Our Andy is looking a bit sluggish and inconsistent. Needs to get angry with himself!

    Was looking comfortable when he broke but struggled to hold at 3-2. Seems quite concerned over his eye - losing concentration a bit.

    Strange that he won the 2nd set 6-1 after such a close 1st set.
