That match did not disappoint. Great stuff.
Some cracking games from here on in now.
What a frame of snooker, well done marco
Marco overcame his opponent and some delinquent snooker balls there to claim his quarter-final place.
Iām delighted for him.
Iād love him to take out Selby.
A crucible classic to whet the appetite for the 1/4 finals.
I thought that Fu gave a masterclass in the last frame against Robertson last night. Constantly had his foot on Robertsonās throat in the safety play which the Aussie in fairness responded well. Robertson then got lucky when he jawed the white and didnāt go in off. Fuās next shot was uttterly brilliant forcing the white tight to the black cushion from the pack. Robertson didnāt get it safe and Fu cleared.
Fu is a super player and Iād love to see him win it. But he has a very tough side of the draw.

John Higgins just called a foul on himself. What an incredible piece of sportsmanship.
Thatās why heās this forumās favourite.
