It was a great game. When Mark was 14-7 up I thought he'd end up winning convincingly. Then John played well to come back and I felt he was favourite at 15-15. Mark responded well to go 17-15 up and then missed match ball next frame I felt that could be very costly but he responded well to win the next frame for a famous victory.

Possibly my favourite match ever, definitely my favourite Cruxible match.
