The Spaniard went 2-1 down and looked to be struggling after an epic five-set semi-final against Grigor Dimitrov on Friday.

However, after going 4-6 6-3 1-6 down, he incredibly fought back to snatch the fourth set 6-3.

Nadal is hoping to win his 15th Grand Slam title - and first since 2014 - with Federer having 17 to his name.
