Spain’s Fernando Verdasco won against Argentina’s Jose Acasuso with a 6-3 6-7 4-6 6-3 6-1 score, which brought the total scoreline to 4-1 for Spain and made them Davis Cup champions for 2008.

This match should have been a meeting between Ferrer and Del Potro, but became the Acasuso – Verdasco match.

Verdasco also played yesterday in the doubles match along with Feliciano Lopez, a match also won by the Spaniards.

If Acasuso were to have won the match, then a deciding match would have been played, were David Nalbandian would have played Feliciano Lopez.

Today begins the Davis Cup Final.

Argentina and Spain are the two contenders.

The world no.1 Rafa Nadal is out due to injury, while the argentinian squad seems to have no problems with injury.

Argentina play at home and are the main favorites, with two top 15 players, J.M. Del Potro and D. Nalbandian.
