Broken back 4-3*
The boys were broken from 30-15 so need to break back to force a tie-break. 5-6*

But unfortunately couldn't. 5-7. At least they appear to be giving it a go, though.
I fear that it looks rather as though things may now have started to go downhill: 1-2*.
It's now very downhil. This time the boys saved 2 break points, but an unlucky net cord gives the Austrians another break.
