Ferrer, disappointed by Nadal's farewell: "It was all a rush".

David Ferrer, Spain's Davis Cup captain, reflects on Rafael Nadal's controversial farewell ceremony.

Nadal's career ended with a Davis Cup defeat, but his farewell ceremony was not to everyone's taste.

His uncle Toni Nadal and his former coach Carlos Moya, for example, said the farewell was not worthy of the player.

Ferrer gave a similar opinion, clearly disappointed with what the organizers had prepared: "With this Davis Cup format, everything has changed. It was a Tuesday, people came from work.

The farewells were after the defeat and in a hurry. It was a bit sad. Federer, Djokovic and Pau Gasol were all missing.
