F.LOPEZ (ESP) 6-4 7-6(2) Spain ease into semifinals Spain had the luxury of resting top singles players Rafael Nadal and David Ferrer, yet still managed to share the day’s two final matches and complete a 4-1 victory over Germany in their Davis Cup by BNP Paribas quarterfinal on Sunday. Fernando Verdasco, replacing Nadal, came from behind to beat Michael Berrer, who came into the team for Philip Kohlschreiber, 26 76(5) 64. Finally, Nicolas Kiefer got Germany off the mark when he saw off Feliciano Lopez 64 76(2). Hugely satisfying weekend for Spain That final defeat hardly spoiled a hugely satisfying weekend for Spain, following singles wins for Nadal and Ferrer on Friday and a knife-edge five-set success in the doubles, when Verdasco and Lopez combined to beat Kohlschriber andd Berrer 12-10 in the final set. Spain can look forward to a semifinal against the United States or France and it’s clear where their preferences lie after their defeat to USA in Winston-Salem, North Carolina at the quarterfinal stage last year. "We’d like to take on USA again, partly because we’ll be at home for that one," captain Emilio Sanchez said. "We gave it everything we had against them last year and it didn’t quite come off. We’ll be eager to have another go at them." Spain v USA again? Spain, of course, have joyful memories of the last time they faced the United States at home in the Davis Cup by BNP Paribas. That was in the final in 2004 on clay in Seville, which provided a raucous setting for Spain’s second title. Spain also beat France on the way to that final, 4-1 at the Plaza do Toros in Alicante. If they end up meeting again this season, it will mean France have home advantage. On the near-perfect performance of his team so far this year, coach Sanchez was careful to remember two players who helped in the 5-0 thrashing of Peru in the last round. "I really want to congratulate the players for the effort they put in, and not just the ones here. We also won in Peru with Nicolas Almagro and Tommy Robredo and they’ve played their part in taking Spain into the semifinals." Hard work for Verdasco Verdasco had to work almost as hard as he had in Saturday’s doubles win to take Spain’s fourth point. Berrer surged into a 4-0 lead before Verdasco woke up, and while he soon improved, it was too late to save the first set. Verdasco lost an early break in the second but controlled the tiebreak – making light of an outrageous net-cord that rescued Berrer at one stage – and took an early break in the third that in the end proved sufficient. Excellent victory for Kiefer Kiefer, back in the Davis Cup by BNP Paribas for the first time in over two years, enjoyed an excellent victory over Lopez in the final match. The 30-year-old took the first set in 43 minutes and eased into a 5-3 lead in the second before Lopez hinted at a comeback. The Spanish left-hander held his serve and broke back as Kiefer put a wild backhand wide on break-point. Kiefer held his nerve to stay in the set at 5-6 and took the tiebreak comfortably -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.119.146.182
