Murray - who will contest his semi-final later on Saturday due to rain delays the previous day - was unhappy with Rosol arguing with the referee.

"No one likes you on the tour, everyone hates you," said the world number three.

In their first meeting since Indian Wells last year, Murray made it two wins from two against the 29-year-old.

Murray saved just one of the four break points he faced but recovered to remain on course for a first clay title, with Roberto Bautista-Agut awaiting in the last four.

The Spaniard overcame Victor Estrella Burgos in 90 minutes - also coming from a set down to win 4-6 6-0 6-0.

Burgos got the crucial break in the opening set but Bautista-Agut showed his quality to reel off the final 12 games and set up a second career meeting with two-time slam winner Murray.

Fifth seed Philipp Kohlschreiber will came from behind to see off fourth seed David Goffin 2-6 6-3 6-4.

The German will now meet Austrian qualifier Gerald Melzer, who caused an upset with a 7-6 (7-5) 3-6 6-3 victory over compatriot Dominic Thiem.

Melzer makes his first appearance in a semi-final on the ATP World Tour.
