23:20 CET - France have won the doubles decider in the Davis Cup to defeat Czechia 2-1. Pierre-Hugues Herbert (33) and his partner Arthur Rinderknech (29) were just too good for the Czech pairing of Jakub Mensik (19) and Adam Pavlasek (29), winning 7-6 (7-4), 7-5.

Elsewhere, Belgium have got some revenge against Brazil by winning the doubles match although Brazil had already won the tie.
