Andy Murray overwhelmed with emotion as Great Britain reach Davis Cup semi-finals for first time in 34 years

Andy Murray was overwhelmed with emotion as he led Great Britain to their first Davis Cup semi-final in 34 years.

Murray came from a set down to beat France's Gilles Simon, giving Britain an unassailable 3-1 lead in the best-of-five tie at Queen's Club.

The world number three looked exhausted when he trailed Simon by a set and a break, but he recovered to win 4-6 7-6 (7/5) 6-3 6-0.

Murray, who partnered brother Jamie to win a doubles match on Saturday, said he was focusing on beating Australia for a place in the final.

Britain v Australia and Belgium v Argentina will be played in September.
