Andy Murray beat Ruben Bemelmans 6-3, 6-2, 7-5 to level tie with Belgium at 1-1. Murray kept his cool, though, and he earned a match point with some neat serve-volleying. That’s all he needed to win the match in the end.
In other match earlier, David Goffin came back from two sets down for the first time in his career to give Belgium a 1-0 lead over Britain in the Davis Cup final with a 3-6, 1-6, 6-2, 6-1, 6-0 win over Kyle Edmund on Friday.
Edmund came close to making his Davis Cup debut a memorable one after rolling through the first two sets against the much higher ranked Belgian. But Goffin stepped up his game as the 20-year-old Edmund started making mistakes.
The first game went to six deuces and Edmund saved two break points to win it in 12 minutes.
Edmund broke Goffin's serve three times to win the second set in 27 minutes.
Goffin began his comeback with a break of serve in the third game of the third set and broke again for a 4-1 lead and won the set 6-2.
