World Snooker Championship 2023

It's 7-5 at the mid-session

The next five frames are enormous.
The alarm bells should be ringing loudly for Brecel now. He needs to find his best stuff and find it quickly. If the tide turns and Selby gets in front it's all over.
Luca is on the ropes.

An excellent 147 break by Selby

And with those last three frames I mentioned Brecel's chance has most likely gone. The last frame of the day a particularly crippling blow.

First ever 147 in a World Final.
A notable feat for Selby especially under pressure.

It's going to take a miracle for Selby not to win now I feel.

Ol mystic meg snooks

13-8 brecel mid session

For a player who according to some , has no chance of beating Mark Selby, Luca Brecel is giving it a bloody good go.

Luca has been superb this afternoon, still imposing his game on Selby not the other way round. Only hope he doesn't get finishing line jitters tonight

I am naturally very surprised.
Pleasantly so.
But the job is not done yet.
Luca must keep his foot to the floor tonight to complete the unthinkable.

Luca Brecel has been brilliant. He deserves to win it.
