Britain's last hope of a point rests with world number 235 Jamie Baker, who is up against Agustine Calleri and starts well

And GB finally have something to celebrate as the Scot plays out a 7-6 (7-4) 6-4 victory over world number 41 Calleri

Still, it is Argentina who really have reason to celebrate as they take the tie 4-1, allowing Calleri and captain Alberto Mancini to open the champagne
