World number one Rafael Nadal says that he is "happy" to have booked his place in the fourth round of Wimbledon.

World number one Rafael Nadal has declared that he is "happy" to have progressed to the fourth round of Wimbledon following his 6-1 6-2 6-4 victory over Alex de Minaur.

The Spaniard described the result as "positive" and revealed plans to unwind afterwards by taking in England's World Cup quarter-final clash with Sweden.

"A positive match against a player with a lot of energy, I am just happy to be in the fourth round again," BBC Sport quotes Nadal as saying.

"I'll go and watch some football - England, it's coming home or not?"

Nadal will face Italy's Fabio Fognini or Czech Jiri Vesely in the next round.
