snooker world championship final

16-15.

At the next, first chance Selby

Selby on a 60 break. Tough bastard.

Brecel has talked about being 'bored' of longer matchplay but I assume that's bcz he couldn't get past the 1st round.

I'd make him a slight favourite as I don't think Selby is in really great scoring form, and he has always scored heavy to win his world titles.

Brecel has never beaten Selby in three matches.

Usually I'd prefer a tight encounter but that would favour Selby, so Brecel to drub this guy as my hope.

maybe, just maybe

Please

A frame off one visit from Selby. That's the heavy scoring he needs.

and Brecel replies with a sick, fluid 99

Selby has won the mini-session 3-1 there. He is definitely scoring heavier now and taking his chances.

Brecel made an incredible 70 break. Just some beautiful shots to somehow keep that going.

Amazing break from Brecel. The power he gets on the cue ball is astonishing.

Also, he really reminds me of Joe Cole.

Follows with a beautiful 67. Just awesome.

That red from Brecel was insane! Is this how you bully your opponent on the snooker table?

But Selby gets the next opportunity. It's kinda regulation, except him to get it

Selby has won the next too, on a 147..

The final red is stuck to the cushion so..

He's going to do it lol

That's incredible

absolutely incredible

set my anxiety off something rotten ffs

Insane

Brecel made a 48. Broke down..

This could be huge now, Selby in after a safety battle.

What a clearance this is so far..

Excellent safety from Selby. Has another chance

9-8. Selby is favourite I'd say. He is scoring heavy enough. Should have the experience to see Brecel off.

that is a fucking unbelievable break

Brecel has won the first three frames with some ruthless snooker.

Selby was in at the last but he broke down on 35. Brecel made a great century.

And one more after. If Brecel closes this off then this is the session.

13-8

This is wild.

mic drop

Woah. I think Virgo just shat himself live on air.

that doesn't sound like the kind of follow through viewers will be wanting to see

yeah should have potted that particular brown

Selby should get back to this. Can't believe he won't.

need to do some mind games

I'm missing all the action, prefer when it's on during working hours!

No mind games from Selby needed. Eventually wins the frame after a 63 break, which included a great red to the middle. 13-9.

now selby's safety shots are off

on enough though

and brecel's pots are off

He eventually grinds it out. Brecel began with a 41 break and didn't convert it. 13-10

Beautiful long red from Brecel. And then some shots to keep the break going when he needed to.

Another century

Lots of errors from both of them at the last

What a masterful clearance Brecel

15-10...just in awe at sown of these shots.

been at work so haven't watched, but what mental strength from Brecel to come out and do this after being pegged back last night

he must prevail. three measly frames. don't give him a sniff

Excellent response from Selby after another excellent break by Brecel. He had to make it with balk colours at the beginning.

Two frames shared.
