Laura Robson and Andy Murray have made it through to the semi-finals of the Olympic mixed doubles thanks to a victory over Australia's Samantha Stosur and Lleyton Hewitt.

Despite dropping serve early in the first set, the British pairing rallied to break back twice and take it 6-3.

However, the Aussies levelled that match up with a 6-3 triumph in the second thanks to two breaks to their opponents' one.

Into the super tie-break and Robson and Murray turned around a 6-8 deficit to eventually come out on top 10-8.

The Brits will play their semi-final against Germany's Sabine Lisicki and Christopher Kas later today.
