USA wins, Bryan Brothers win. They celebrate with the “Bryan Brother Chest Bump”. The American crowd was roaring. The Bryan Brothers saved the USA. Through the whole set point the brothers looked confident and focus. They win 6-4.

Don’t count Spain out, they did not give any point away in this set point. 5-4. The set is getting close!

USA is one point away in the set to win the game. 5-3. The Bryans are really giving it their all. They were so excited to win this set point that the viewers got to see the “Bryan Brother Chest Bump”

Verdasco showing signs of frustration, he kicks the tennis ball. In this set both Spaniards stayed close to the net, they end up not being able to send over the ball in three different occasions giving one more point to USA. 4-3

Both Bryan Brothers stayed very close to the court, pushing Spain to step up their game. With a tight jam and a very nice fast serve they took the Bryans take the point… 3-3 all.

Bryan Brothers lost another point in the fourth set, 3-2. Spain is leading due to Verdasco’s killer serve.

Spain back up leading 2-1 in the fourth set.

The Bryans are getting closer to winning the game, they are only one set away they finished the third set 6-4.

The Bryan Brothers are at 3-2 they just broke serve.

Spain won the first set 7-6 . The Bryans won the second set 6-4.

The US needs to win this game if not this will be the end of the USA team. Since Spain defeated both Mardy Fish and Andy Roddick, when playing the singles. If Spain were to win this game, Spain will move forward to play France.
