Thomas Engert vs. Earl Strickland | 2000 Mosconi Cup

USA are on the Mosconi Cup hill - can Earl Strickland get them over the line, or will Thomas Engert edge Europe to within a point of the defending champions?

[@PoolsharkTang]

Love to see the Earl from those days. He had skill and sportsmanship. He stayed very composed the whole match. The earl today has been very different...Still enjoy his games though.

[@scotttavernier720]

Most talented team USA has ever produced

[@paleshelter4002]

Earl classy here... appreciation to team Europe, the fans and tournament CEO Barry Hearn.. as professional as it gets!

[@joesagar4790]

37:11 oh yes, oh yes, OOHH YESS. My wife and my mom walked in right then and immediately ran out and we've never spoke about it.

[@memphisgrizzliesfan1]

That must be them leaving at 37:25, you can hear a door close.

[@robmckennie4203]

Great to see a young Michaela Tabb

[@physicsguybrian]

She's all I could watch. Who won? 😁😉

[@gino2033]

If you have Earl Strictland, Johnny Archer & Corey Duel in any Mossconi Cup team it will be a tough team to beat.

[@michaelhendrie9256]

Johnny owes Oscar money.

[@jaynosowsky9708]

These players thought they where great!!! You could fit a small watermelon in them pockets!! Seriously is the size of almost 3 balls!! Today it's like a ball and a half.

[@fredsavage4925]

Sid has to be the greatest commentator ever.

[@donovanhaas7315]

Jimmy White and Alex HIggins? Had no idea that they teamed up for Mosconi. Sweet.

Epic match. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6Ctk4KFrKqIjKM

[@paleshelter4002]

they are the quite the team!

[@lindastevens3547]

Earl usually got the job done.

[@brettrock278]

Someone needs to put together a channel dedicated to Sid's commentary.

[@vebnew]

Earl Strickland THE PEARL

[@destinylags6863]

Can we appreciate how absolutely sexy Tabb is here?

[@mikea5205]

She was a fox! Still is!

[@Brandon-dx6mm]

Hope her pockets are smaller

[@azathothh]

25:32 "OH!"

[@jamest3552]

"Let's welcome the runners up" aka last place.

[@TheJohnCooperShow]

whatever happened to engert? he was only young here

[@poppy7354]

The Pearl no doubt the best 9 ball player of all time.

[@BladeRunner-td8be]

"Engert with an acute angle into the center". It's a dead, straight in shot. lol If the commentator was referencing the angle which the 2 ball had to travel into the center pocket, it's about 45 degrees. Hardly an acute angle. Cheers

[@robmckennie4203]

Acute just means less than 90 degrees

[@physicsguybrian]

@@robmckennie4203 Or it means not A-ugly angle ;-) but yes, less than 90 deg is an acute angle, greater than 90 but less than 180 is obtuse.

[@phillipwilliams2249]

looks like the brits sound equipment is about as good as their players, towards the end of this.

[@leeandrewclarke]

What a strange comment to make about twenty year old tech. Anyway, nowadays, us Brits players are as good at Pool as Americans while Americans can't play Snooker. At all. Not remotely. Oh, and hope you enjoyed the Mosconi Cup this year? Love to our former colony. Enjoy our language, laws and culture.

[@phillipwilliams2249]

@@leeandrewclarke as usual lee clark has no idea of what he is talking about, im convinced he is a child on mommys computer..when she catches you lee, your going to your room..punk.

[@physicsguybrian]

@@leeandrewclarke Except america has no real culture nor a decent language anymore. It's a free-for-all with the rich always on top and rest of us fending for table scraps. Oh yeah and as for laws, if you're rich enough, seems you can get out of mostly anything. When we left Britain, we left WAY too much behind. Anyone wishing to argue this point is simply not paying attention.

[@simplelangperorock]

huge pockets

[@paxconsciente3352]

they were bigger but they arent huge

[@chrisv.s.3403]

Back when 🇺🇸 dominated... Till 🇪🇺 caught up 😳. Now it's not even competitive 😔

[@MrTimmyc77]

USA won previous 2 years back to back and every match this year was hill hill although Europe victory appeared lopsided. It’s obvious you were not paying attention.

[@joesagar4790]

Europe won this year and we won the last 2 years and Europe won in 2017. I'd like to think that's competitive. Oh wait it is. Competitive-Relating to or characterized by competition. As good as or better than others of a comparable nature.

What's with the drunken soccer fans at a pool match....?

[@paleshelter4002]

there was more to deal with, than the table back then
