Emotions run high as Nadal defeats Federer

Rafael Nadal became the first Spaniard to win the Australian Open title after another epic battle with Roger Federer today.

The 7-5 3-6 7-6 (7-3) 3-6 6-2 win denied Federer his 14th grand slam title, meaning the Swiss world number two will have to wait a little longer to equal Pete Sampras' record.
