" The Argentine broke a 14-game winning streak Murray in the Davis Cup, defeating him in five hours seven minutes. Supported Juan-Martin and Pelya, who then consulted with Edmund. Curiously, Murray and Del Potro next day went to the doubles match. In the case of Andy it was a necessity, as it was the best partner for his brother and there was nowhere to retreat masters. Juan-Martin in the pair was somewhat surprising to see, especially when you consider that the next day he did not come out on its own. It turned out that the Argentinian was a small leg injury, so he decided on a single game was not enough, and in doubles run so do not need much. Murray Brothers took a couple. And then Andy played his third game of the  weekend, beating Pellew. In the past two years, the younger Murray playing in the Davis Cup for wear. In the final match Leon Smith changed Edmund Evans, and the Argentines came Leonardo Mayer. Evans in New York had a match point in the match with the future champion - Stan Wawrinka. Here, the Briton had a great first game, but then the advantage passed to Leonardo. Argentinedue  to injury missed this season a lot of tournaments, but here he was right. Over the last three sets Dan was not a single break-point. Leo worthy replacement for del Potro. For Argentina it is now in its fifth Davis Cup final, with the last four, they lost. It is interesting that all the matches in the Davis Cup 2016 Argentines spend on the road. 15 years ago, the French team with the same calendar managed to win the trophy. Croatia -

Marin Cilic. First he beat Pully. Then, on Saturday he joined Ivan Dodig in the pair, and together they managed to stop the best pair of the world - Mayu / Erber. By the way, in the quarterfinals Dodig and Cilic beat the Bryan brothers. But in the first round and quarter-finals Cilic failed to win three games. In both cases, Ćorić brought victory point in the playoffs. And in the semi-final Marin became the hero, winning in three games Richard Gasquet. Croatia for the first time since 2005 (and the second time in its history) to the finals, which also will play at home. It is clear that the match will be held in the hall on hard, but it is in such circumstances, the Argentines have been the UK. The fate of the finals will largely depend on the physical condition of del Potro. World Group. Playoffs Uzbekistan -
