6.43pm: Roddick 7 Murray 6 Murray makes a good start, holding his serve. 1-0. Roddick booms a big one down, Murray challenges but it was easily in. 1-1. Another cracker makes it 2-1 Roddick. Oops - Murray nets on his own serve after a rally for the mini-break. 3-1, Roddick. Oh how Murray needed that - a game of cat-and-mouse on his own serve forces an error from Roddick on the 15th stroke. 3-2. Big serve from the American. 4-2. Crikey, another massive first serve. 5-2, Roddick. Murray just about holds for 5-3 after another lengthy rally. How are your nerves? Mine are frayed. Imagine what theirs are like. Another brilliant, fantastic rally. Murray somehow finds an impossible cross-court pass that lands on the line. 5-4. Murray floats one wide and challenges in desperation. It's closer than first thought but still out. 6-4, Roddick. Match point. OH MY GOD! What a pass by Murray as Roddick raced to the net. This boy has guts. Long, strong guts. 6-5. But that's it - a long rally ends with Murray netting. And the American goes through to the final.
