Schwartzman comes back to win against Tsitsipas, lifts Argentina over Greece

It was a brilliant match between Tsitsipas and Schwartzman that featured a lot of great rallies in this very long match. It was a very important match as Argentina could clinch the tie with a win and Schwartzman certainly played like it was a super important match. Tsitsipas, while visibly agitated at times with his level, did not seem to push as hard as his opponent

That was even more evident as the match went on and his errors started piling up. By the end of the match, the Greek had more than double the amount of Schwartzman. Tsitsipas attacked relentlessly trying to shorten points as much as possible but Scwhratzman was ready for it. The speedy Argentinian stood far back and blasted away from the defensive hitting some superb winners in the match.
