Nick Kyrgios put on a fine display in this rally against Alexander Zverev, but couldn't quite pull off a powerful slice in their fourth-round clash in Miami

Alexander Zverev and Nick Kyrgios are two of the headline players in the men’s game and the talented duo did not disappoint under the Miami lights.

Kyrgios has been in the news this week for his Twitter row with Fernando Verdasco and he was unable to extend his stay in Florida as he lost 6-4 6-4 to his German rival.

Verdasco's war of words with Kyrgios

Fernando Verdasco and Nick Kyrgios were involved in a war of words after Spaniard's controversial victory against Thanasi Kokkinakis at the Miami Open.

Zverev, who won two Masters 1000 titles in a breakthrough campaign last year, has shown signs of a return to form at Crandon Park to reach the quarter-finals - after a disappointing opening to his season.

The world No 5 was left smiling after an eventful rally in their night session encounter, which saw Kyrgios desperately attempt to initially find a way past his resilient opponent at the net before firing a forehand on the run beyond the baseline.
