Madrid, Nov 26 (SocialNews.XYZ) Italy will play Australia in the final of the Davis Cup on Sunday after fighting back to beat Novak Djokovic's Serbia 2-1 in semifinal.
Jannik Sinner saved three match points against world number one Djokovic when 0-40 down on his serve and 5-4 down in the third set, to finally turn around the match, reports Xinhua.
Sinner then broke Djokovic's serve and served out to win a dramatic match 6-2, 2-6, 7-5 to force the doubles.
In the first singles rubber, Miomir Kecmanovic of Serbia beat Lorenzo Musetti of Italy 6-7(7), 6-2, 6-1.
