The Spaniard comes back from 6-1 in the second round play-off and Munar will then face Zverev. Italy awaits Sunday’s outcome
The Spanish Davis Cup team was one step away from Sunday’s final (3.00pm, Movistar+) thanks to Pablo Carreño’s victory against Jan-Lennard Struff in the first round on Saturday: 6-4 and 7-6(6), after 1h 44′. The 34-year-old Asturian played a great match against an opponent who only plays heads and tails, giving David Ferrer’s men an advantage in the series, which will continue with the match between Jaume Munar and world number three, Alexander Zverev. At the start of the day, Carreño overcame the hammer of the German, who was leading 6-1 in the second set tie-break; However, the man from Gijón reacted strongly and achieved a precious victory. It should be remembered that on Friday Italy got its first ticket to the final, winning the match against Belgium (2-0).
