Laver Cup 2022 LIVE: Frances Tiafoe and Team World stun Europe and Roger Federer to win tournament

Chance for Auger-Aliassime! He gets level at 30-30 with a shot down the line that Djokovic lost track of, before he then does well to attack Djokovic’s backhand. He had a chance at the net, but makes an error on the volley.

However it comes back again at deuce as Djokovic sends a forehand long - and a double fault from Djokovic surprises everyone! Auger-Aliassime is back level at 2-2.

Auger-Aliassime finds a welcome hold behind his first serve, which will be his best chance of getting something from this match. He holds to love and gets a nice flying forehand at the net.

Djokovic is wayward on his first serve but it doesn’t seem to matter as he takes over on the rallies. The hitting is intense, accurate and already Auger-Aliassime is feeling it’s vice-like pressure.

Auger-Aliassime electing to serve first was a sign of his confidence but he is put under immediate pressure from Djokovic, who clips the lines and plays a flawless point at 15-30 to set up two early break points. Auger-Aliassime can’t find the first serve and as a forehand is pulled wide, Djokovic gets the break. Intimidating play already from Djokovic.

Actor Tom Hiddlestone is involved in the coin toss and Auger-Aliassime chooses to serve. Warm-ups are underway.

Djokovic and Auger-Aliassime have only played once before. It was this year in Rome and Djokovic won 7-5 7-6.

This is why Europe wanted Novak Djokovic to be in the opening singles match. On yesterday’s form, he is as close to a guaranteed point as you can get. If there’s a player you could pick to save your life, it would be Djokovic.

Felix Auger-Aliassime has the pressure off after winning in doubles earlier. He played well, too, so that may inspire him.

The beauty of the scoring system here is that’s it’s suddenly very close. A good match awaits.

Felix Auger-Aliassime has gone off to prepare for his singles match against Novak Djokovic, so Jack Sock is left to do the final interview.

“Djokovic has seeing the ball great yesterday,” he says before praising Auger-Aliassime, who will be fired up after that doubles win.

Sock believes momentum is with the World team now.

Berrettini produces a wicked bouncing second serve and then follows it in with the forehand smash at Auger-Aliassime, level again at 8-8.

Oh no! Murray had a chance on the volley but Auger-Aliassime has been the player of the match since the start of the second set and his instincts at the net earn Team World match point!

Auger-Aliassime serves a bomb down the middle and Sock follows it with a superb touch at the net, a brilliant angled volley!

Suddently, Europe only lead 8-7 ahead of the singles matches! Brilliant performance there from Sock and Auger-Aliassime.

That’s better from Murray, picking up a tricky forehand and keeping it low as Auger-Aliassime nets. Europe needed to win that.

Great from Murray again! Berrettini pinned Sock pack onto the forehand and Murray steps in to split his opponents at the net!

Sock pulls out the big serve out wide and the World lead 8-7 with two serves from Berrettini to come.

Auger-Aliassime again does a nice job of following Sock’s serve for a volleyed winner - before Sock picks out a stunning backhand pass that catches the line! Murray had moved into the net, but Sock finds the window.

It’s back on serve, but not for long as Berrettini throws in a double fault! Auger-Aliassime again finds his mark on the serve and Sock pounces at the net - that’s four straight points and World lead 6-4!

Murray wrestles back the advantage though as he hammers a forehand straight at Sock - but then it is thrown away as he chucks in a double fault! World lead 7-5.
