Roger Federer is back in front in the Australian Open final after taking the third set against Marin Cilic.
Federer broke straight out of the gate and after four games had only conceded four points to his Croatian opponent - with a double break putting him in firm control.
Cilic won his first game to make it 4-1 but he could not claw Federer back, and the first set was over in 24 minutes.
Cilic came back in the second set though, taking Federer to a tie-break, which the big Croatian won 7-5.
Federer responded in kind and won the third 6-3 to get to within one set of his 20th Grand Slam title.
