French fightback stuns Serbs

The French duo silenced the passionate home crowd in Belgrade with an epic 3-6 6-7 (3-7) 6-4 7-5 6-4 victory to put their country 2-1 ahead.

The heartbreaking defeat was a first this year for the partnership of Troicki, who had been preferred to Novak Djokovic, and Zimonjic.

Home favourite Djokovic will now need to beat Gael Monfils in the first singles rubber on Sunday to keep Serbian hopes alive of a first success.
