snooker world championship final

Selby managed to clear for a century to be one away.

Allen has relaxed a bit and has won the last three frames. Nothing fiery but just more fluent. 16-13.

this is still going lol

why does Selby take two minutes on every shot, never been quite established has it

Can see Selby getting the better of this exchange to win..

Chance for the match..

What a brown from Allen..16-14, it's midnight, we go on.

For two of these frames Selby had a good chance. He is just not scoring heavy enough..

Allen had a cracking pot but he missed a tough red. Now Selby has a chance..

Fucking hell..

Lots of missing now from Allen again. Reckon this is his best chance.

Surely now..

Fucking speechless

Wow

I will never forget that yellow...he surely did not mean to mishit it like that.

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.
