Ronnie O'Sullivan vs Neil Robertson | Great tactical and attacking snooker | 2007 World Championship

[@eyebrowman1]

I've said it before but it bears repeating. Your editing is sublime. Thanks for all you post.

[@FloydMaxwell]

First frame: Robertson's escapes were first class, then the stunning miss. Nice to be able to watching only the most critical bits of a match, thanks to great editing.

[@kevanbrown7620]

Ronnie is my favourite player, but I like Neil Robertson,I have a lot of respect for him and the way he plays snooker,I was so glad when Ronnie, after beating him in a final, said "Never mind the snooker, Neil is the nicest human being on the tour and that apart from Ding,who he is very close, and maybe Liang, there's no other player he would like to share it with" I'm not sure but it may have been Ronnie's 1,000th century, whatever I thought it was a nice touch by Ronnie, and good to see him and Neil being good friends

Brilliant inspirational snooker. Thank you for showing it, Cesar.

[@CesarMuroya]

You're welcome Michael.

[@ThePurist007]

What a nice lad Robertson is - 12-10 down, his opponent only needs one frame, admits a fluke and yet he can still smile. Great sportsman.

[@cahg3871]

Frame 3 is some of the best safety/tactical play I have seen on this channel.Another excellent upload from the best snooker channel on KZbin,Cesar Muroya.👍

[@thejakeakar]

my goodness what a beautiful series of frames and that awesome edit thank you ,,,,,,,

[@CesarMuroya]

Thanks thejakeakar!

[@MohammedAli-1]

Love the class of snooker, and well done Cesar, amazing editing, I mean Director Cesar 😀

[@CesarMuroya]

Just anecdotal: the three previous matches between them were played in ranking events, best of 9, in the QF stage and whoever won the match ended up winning the title (2005 Welsh, 2006 GPrix, 2007 Welsh; the last were the first two Neil titles).

[@BigGreenTimeMachine]

Best snooker channel on KZbin. Good content, good trivia/video notations and the only one that does both of those AND doesn't have an ad every two fucking minutes. Nice one.

[@BrainFoodCafe]

Appreciate it.

[@BrainFoodCafe]

brilliant. Robertson is the real Gentleman and plays bravely.

[@calvinsbnb76]

Wow, what a great video, produced by you with great care and thoughtfulness. May be -- is -- the best I've seen. Just subscribed. Neil Robertson said recently (last year maybe) that for much of his career he was addicted to playing video games. He said he really regrets it because he feels it kept him from having success he should have had.

[@CesarMuroya]

Thanks for your words and welcome!

always liked neil,great player,no fuss about his style,good solid opponent,you can tell he and ronnie dug in for this match.

[@mohdkhalid2959]

Can you always upload? cause your videos are the reason why I’m still sane in quarantine.

[@alfredcheng5739]

Frame 21 what a steal from Ronnie that’s insane

[@151bar151]

15:45 probably the closest miss I've ever seen

[@jonathankonoi]

In my understanding of the rules you are not allowed to jump over an interfering ball when trying to hit the object ball, correct me if i’m wrong. You can clearly see on the slowmotion at 4:15 that when Neil is swerving around the pink the cueball jumps and leaves the bed of the table for a split second, due to his elevated cue. Of course very hard to see without slowmotion for the ref, but is this a foul or is he allowed to partially jump over and around the pink in this situation?

[@CesarMuroya]

It is not allowed to jump over any part of an object ball. The shot was legal IMO.

[@cabeltran31]

UN EXCELENTE PARTIDO ENTRE DOS GIGANTES

[@bmedicky]

The photo in the video thumbnail looks like it was taken a split second before Ronnie buried a meat cleaver in Neil's skull.

[@DaygameAustralia]

Hahahahahahaha

[@greeneyeddevil1]

Hard to think this was 14 years ago

[@Bladerunner-yd5lk]

13 but still feels closer to 3

[@EannaButler]

Great stuff. I find it hard to believe that Neil Robertson has been going at the top flight of snooker for 13 years!! He's 38 - eight years older than Judd - I thought they were alot closer in age!

[@EannaButler]

Just another 'age' thing to consider... Judd is 30 now - Ronnie was 31 in this match... We really do have alot more years of Judd ahead of us...

[@equisde8026]

Eanna Butler sadly

[@DeltaBird2269]

Literally blink and you’ll miss him... pot that blue on the 21st frame😂😂😂I looked down for a split second to take a bite of my food and looked up and it disappeared right in front my eyes😂

[@khaledali-jr7nb]

Such a big talent !!!

[@Sponger760]

Instinctively put my phone down and started clapping as a reaction to the shot at 4:00.

[@alpericen3782]

[@evilelf5967]

interesting note.....how many snooker players have had the words...sublime,amazing, gifted,sensational,unbelievable and genius used during a frame? there's only one to my knowledge,and he's still at it.

[@1218jmm]

At the beginning of this video, there’s this: “ ‘I think it’s made snooker a more positive game. In the past, only rarely did players miss deliberately, but sometimes they had not to strive over hard to make a successful escape.’ - Clive Everton on the miss rule -“ I understand everything except “…had not to strive over hard…” Can someone help me understand what he’s saying here? Thank you.

[@CesarMuroya]

He means that they didn't have to try hard (as players do today) to make a successful escape, because it was not mandatory in the past (although in certain situations the ref asked them to play again).

[@umairzafarofficial]

[@alliwanttosayis2144]

Can someone explain to me why at the start of the vid the black is on the pink spot?

[@conormccormack7841]

They didn't bring in the no-alcohol rule for referees until the following year. Also if one of the coloured ball's spot is covered by a red or the other coloured balls, they use whatever other spot that's closest to it's own. And if there's no spot available, they put it as close as possible to its own spot and the ball that's covering it's spot

[@DerDrache707071]

Ronny is not a snooker player. Ronny is a snooker god who has decided to entertain people with his game. (The Blue...puhh) :-)

[@johnsmith-wx5fb]

I love at the middle of the video how it was so obvious to us but just nearly perceptible to the player had he not done it the game would have changed massively, just goes to show. Food for thought.

Omg 🤦‍♂️This match was before covid 19

[@giovincoforballondor8835]

4:00 should this be a foul as Robertson has jumped over the pink prior to making contact with the red? One to debate:)

[@12ANSHBHATIA]

It jumped through the side of it not over .

[@dannymccrae3070]

I don’t think it did jump the pink to be honest. Perhaps an optical illusion. The cue ball barely left the bed of the table

[@thewellwishers1266]

No its not the foul he just swing the ball a little

[@felipevalsani936]

I’m pretty sure if cue ball jumps prior to hitting a red but it does not jump high enough to clear the highest point of an object ball it’s a legal shot :)

Hence Jimmy never won a world title, "I know that for a fact" quoted by Derek Black a Jambo in Restalrig residing and not in Gorgie. Lesson do not win or it will kill you. Be humble if your good at one thing you do, if however you can do more than influence other then yourself most possibly you will survive excess and yourself or as its named ego.
