In the first four games of a 2-2 draw, Si Jiahui continued to maintain a good offensive state, hitting a total of 5 strokes of 50+, but four games were reversed by Jones, temporarily falling behind 2-6.
The fifth game: Si Jiahui's defense leaked the opportunity, Jones scored a start, scored 71 points in a single stroke, and there were still 59 points on the table, Si Jiahui needed at least three shots of snooker to deuce.
It's a pity that Si Jiahui only succeeded in one shot, and Jones won the fifth game 28-72 and returned to the lead 3-2.
Game 6: Jones scored 71 points in a single stroke, won another game 94-6, and returned to a two-game lead 4-2!
Game 7: Si Jiahui scored 53 points in a single stroke again, leading Jones 53-14, and the offense changed hands.
Jones chased the score to 36-53, Si Jiahui forced the long platform and did not score, bad luck, missed the opportunity, Jones started to complete the game again, 60-53 won another game, 5-2 lead.
This reversal is also the third game when Si Jiahui played a single stroke of 50+, Jones completed the comeback strongly, and Si Jiahui lost too unjustly!
The eighth game: Si Jiahui hit a single shot of 50+ again, and the score of 57-14 overtook the lead, but he still missed a shot to win, leaving Jones with a chance to reverse, the only advantage is that the black ball is not in the point, and it is a little difficult to clear the table!
At the critical time, Jones lost the yellow ball, but Si Jiahui never had a good offensive opportunity, but Jones took the initiative and made a defensive penalty point.
63-57, in the end, Jones still completed the reversal of the clearance, and led Si Jiahui 6-2 in the first stage.
Four games of 50+, four games were reversed, Si Jiahui's offense is not bad, but the long platform and defense are too poor, and there are too few wins in one shot, so he was constantly reversed by Jones, and finally fell behind!
The 16-in-8 game is a 25-game 13-win system, divided into three stages, and there is still a chance to turn the tables after four games, but the key is that Si Jiahui must be able to maintain an offensive state in the future, and improve the ability to win by one shot, otherwise, if you want to win, it is really difficult!
At two o'clock in the morning, the two will play the second stage of the match, how it is, let's wait and see!
In the second stage of the other 16-in-eight game at the same time, Gilbert, the dark horse of the qualifying round, played a 7-1 small climax, leading Milkins by a score of 12-4, and is expected to easily advance to the quarterfinals!
By the end of the second stage, Gilbert had scored two shots to break 100 and six strokes of 50+, which can be described as full of firepower.
