Murray breaks for 5-4. Such a difference from 20 mins ago, this time it's Andy who is completely solid and Canas who's looking annoyed. Some lovely shots from Murray, right on the line off both sides. A couple of chases into the net for the volley winner, really dominating, very encouraging. Now just need him to serve it out.

Woo! I expected to miss this match but just got back in time!

Come on Andy! Keep it up! You are playing brilliantly!

15-0, running forehand cross-court winner.
2nd serve 15-15 great rally from both players, Murray uses the short ball to come in but Canas lobs and Murray can't get it back over the net (he was facing the wrong way and stretched beyond limit!)
2nd serve 15-30 forehand cross court winner from Canas this time, good shot unfortunately

2nd serve 15-40 Canas comes to net and doesn't give Andy enough from for the winner down the line, Andy pushes it just wide trying to get through
30-40 great serve, return in the net
2nd serve: game Canas.

Andy was in charge of that rally but he put the approach shot in the net instead

0-15, Canas mistake
0-30 Canas goes wide again! Fist pump from Murray, he's getting everything back at the moment and Canas is going for too much as a result!

missed a couple of points to see the end of the rugby

15-40 two match points and Canas nets it to see Murray through to the final
