Marcel Granollers and Pedro Martinez sent Spain to the title match at the Davis Cup Finals on Saturday, when they earned a hard-fought 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 deciding doubles rubber win against Germany\u2019s Kevin Krawietz and Tim Puetz.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Alexander Zverev had levelled the tie for Germany in Bologna with a 7-6(2) 7-6(5) victory against Jaume Munar after Pablo Carreno Busta had beaten Jan-Lennard Struff 6-4 7-6(6) to give Spain the lead.<\/p>\n

With the doubles left to decide the semi-final tie, Granollers and Martinez stepped up to send Spain through. They crucially saved one break point when serving for the match at 5-3, 30\/40 in the third set, earning victory on their first match point to spark jubilant scenes of celebration among the Spanish team.<\/p>\n

In the first match of the day, Carreno Busta saved five consecutive set points in the second set against Struff, rallying from 1\/6 behind in the tie-break to give his nation the lead after one hour and 46 minutes.<\/p>\n

The No. 3 player in the PIF ATP Rankings Zverev clubbed 32 winners, including 13 aces, past Munar but ultimately his victory was in vain. Zverev ends his season holding a 57-25 record, according to the Infosys ATP Win\/Loss Index.<\/p>\n

Spain is in its first Davis Cup final since lifting the trophy in 2019. The former champion will play two-time defending champion Italy in Sunday\u2019s final.<\/p>\n
