Even without world number two Jannik Sinner and number 8 Lorenzo Musetti, the Italians reached the final. In the first semi-final, the Azzurri defeated Belgium 2:0. Their opponents on Sunday will be Spain or Germany.

Matteo Berrettini (ATP 56) put his team on the road to victory with a 6-3 6-4 win over Raphaël Collignon (ATP 86) and celebrated his eighth Davis Cup win in a row. Flavio Cobolli (ATP 22) then had to fight hard to decide the match before the doubles. He won 6:3, 6:7 (5:7), 7:6 (17:15) against Zizou Bergs (ATP 43), who missed seven match points in a crazy tie-break in the deciding set.
