Nalbandian-Schwank d. Cilic-Karlovic, 3-6, 7-6, 6-3, 6-7 8-6
Given the drama from the first day of the tie, I had been hoping for a slightly less topsy-turvy doubles rubber, in which Argentina emerged the victor.
It wasn't easy, but Schwalbandian won the crucial doubles rubber. After a 5 hours match, (at this point, both Nalby and Cilic have both logged more than 10 hours on the tennis court), Nalby-Schwank took the 5th set 8-6 over Cilic-Karlovic.
