  1. Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 2-2 Struff*

    He holds with his third ace in four points.

    Incredible.

    But he really does need Struff's level to drop.

  2. *Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 1-2 Struff

    Evans is most certainly on the ropes but he is still landing scoring punches - in this case, two aces.

    Deuce.

  3. *Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 1-2 Struff

    Evans bites back with a swiping one-handed backhand passing shot.

    15-30.

    15-40 as Struff smacks a mighty return past his opponent.

  4. *Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 1-2 Struff

    Evans' shots are far too short - he is being picked off so easily.

    0-30.

  5. *Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 1-2 Struff

    Sensational reach from the back by Evans before he attacks at the net and comes off the better.

    Deuce.

    Struff produces an ace then delicate volley at the net.

    Game.

  6. Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 1-1 Struff*

    40-30.

    But just as it looks like Struff is about to sew up the game, Evans produces a dipping passing winner.

    Beautiful.

    Deuce.

  7. Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 1-1 Struff*

    Hello. Hello.

    Struff goes wide with a forehand.

    15-30.

    But the German gets himself out of a spot of bother with another ferocious rocket.

    Dan Evans seemed to get riled by the noisy Kazakh band yesterday as he started to lose his way against Bublik and one German fan is trying his best to wind up the British number one now.

    Evans disputes a let call, telling the umpire it cleared the cord. She says, rightly, she heard the peep. "Yeah, but it went over," Evans replies.

    Meanwhile, said German shouts "LET!" Evans ignores him this time. Earlier the Briton gave the bloke with the same voice a sharp stare after he shouted out.

  9. Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 1-1 Struff*

    Evans eventually holds.

  10. *Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 0-1 Struff

    The German is seeing everything now - he can probably see into the stadium where Spain are playing Argentina.

    Struff produces a great forehand winner from Evans' serve, barely moving.

    Advantage before the computer bails out the Brit on a challenge.

  11. *Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 0-1 Struff

    The Briton is trying to rediscover his consistency again.

    Ace number five helps but as he looks to pass Struff the German picks him off at the net.

    Deuce.

  12. *Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 0-1 Struff

    That's two decent serves now from Evans.

    30-15.

    But Evans undoes more good work with a poor backhand slice.

    30-30.

  13. *Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 0-1 Struff

    0-15.

    Ace.

    Ace.

    Big serve.

    40-15.

    Game.

    We are almost certainly going to a deciding doubles.

  14. Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 0-0 Struff*

    We go again.

    A good start from Evans as his lob is inch perfect.

  15. Game and second set Struff

    *Evans 7-6 (8-6) 3-6 Struff

    Struff is really showing off his whole repertoire now - another great whipped forehand brings up 15-30.

    Make that 15-40.

    Actually, Struff levels!!

    Wow! That was rapid. And a rapid loss of form of Evans.
