why are all the referees so bad at their job? its not fair to the players who wants a clean game. it wasnt like this before...
Seeing Farag get angry like this is so incredibly out of character it should tell the refs something is wrong even if they’re somehow too inept to spot it themselves.
People have off days. It happens to the best of us.
Another example of careful editing out of dubious Asal behaviour??
Looks that way to me
So much interference from Asal in that last game, non wonder Farag was so upset at the end there. It’s a real shame tournaments keep ending with these questionable plays
That smirk on asals face as faraq storms of the court, that is what i cannot stomach about him.
I’ve not seen the full match but I don’t think Asal did much (if anything) wrong from the highlights
Asal is à shame for squash !
Dunno if you've noticed or not but mostly all of the Egyptians are block movers. I see it from all of them. In fact u see it from probably 80 percent of squash players. Pro or not. Thing with is asal is that he's such a large man it's more noticeable
@@MsShaneothere’s blocking and then there’s hitting your opponents leg causing them to spin out, and it’s the latter that happens here
I've never seen Farag bring any negative emotions to the court.
Asal looked like he was turning a new page prior to this tournament. This tournament looks like he reset the last couple of years.
The same happened to Coll, tho.
When Asal's 2nd documentary comes out, he'll have less players on it ngl
@@InoMbayeka Yeah Coll was livid in the semi
Farag didn’t exactly play clean against Elias in the semis, sorry. He did his best to disrupt the flow by constantly complaining when he was losing. Not impressed by what is an impressive player
Asal doesn’t need to do the blocking and bad movements to win. It is too bad as it overshadows his play. I really don’t like watching him as his unsportsmanlike conduct is not good for the game.
Tactical moves and slight blocking you can see from all players. Diego Elias foot blocking in the semis was very obvious and Faraq looked angrily at the referee, but he got along with it sensing that Diego was very tired and couldn't hold up the game. In this final Faraq got frustrated because Asal kept up the pressure and punished him from his weak shots. He just had a bad day at the office. Stop speculating, Asal was a deserved winner and brings unique squash to the game.
This guy has perfected and masked the skill of decepting referees. He is doing these little dirty things of moving away just in the nick of time or restricting the opponent's movement. All these put the opponent off, or does not allow opponent to move fast enough to shots. At this level, even a split second will disadvantage the opponent. The last shot says it all. Instead of moving backwards, the perpetrator moves slightly forward, which prevented Faraq from moving diagonally to the ball, hence not being able to reach the ball. It's sad.
I agree. It's frustrating because Asal is immensely talented, and even without all the shenanigans he'll be a multiple winning world champion. But his childish and diabolical antics are infuriating to watch, and inevitably taint the overall sport of squash. However, I guess football has its diving...so perhaps this is just the cross squash needs to bear.
Exactly what i was thinking just now. By doing all this nonsense, he is just harming himself
SPOT ON ANALYSIS!!
“The perpetrator” is a total legend. Farag and everyone have to deal with the perpetrator’s large frame
Having a bad guy (or 'heel' as it's known in wrestling) is great for the sport. Whilst I'm not a fan, watching the public get fully involved is a good thing for squash!
Farag pissed cause Asal is such a dirty player
Just look at the body language of Farag can tell ,just pissed off.
@@gp10988 Agree, he is usually a great sport but this was too much
This is a perfect word for this guy.....DiRTY!!
Get rid of Asal
He knows the tide is changing
I can’t remember Farag ever so mad he yelled at a ref. With Asal’s track record, I assume he was pretty bad in the full match and the highlights hid it.
Can't tell from the highlights, which mostly look clean. But Asal must have done a lot of borderline movement stuff to work Farag up like that. Asal is so talented, but it makes the sport much worse when the winner brings out the worse in competitors. It forces them to play a game that is antithetical to squash. We are supposed to collaborate in letting an opponent get to the ball. Asal forces players to either be dangerous in competing for space or get the officials involved. Not how it's supposed to be.
Movement needs to be reviewed after the match as well. It is hard for the referee to see everything and decide everything in the middle of a match.
No it's not
I mean that a panel should the movement and deliberate. That might be too slow during a match.
fun fact, shouting review after getting ignored is actually not dissent .
Except he wasn't ignored. Ref started announcing the review the moment Farag raised his finger.
Referee is not the one who sees the review. It is another referee in closed room who has no real view option.
This should be revised too
Asal is really a disgrace. Finally we have a heel in squash though, which is kinda fun. Drama always gets attention.
does he really do anything wrong in these highlight? Or did something happen in the game that isn't highlighted here?
It is fantastic how Asal frustrates Farag and exposes what a hack Farag is. Yes, maturity is a bit lacking at the top of the squash rankings. We will never see another Jansher or Jahangir, or for that matter, another Jonathon Power. There was more poise and maturity in Pakistan and Power had more personality.
@@mrksgo6122 he has a very subtle way of blocking players. every player has the same issue with him. the refs however are clueless and lets it happen as long as it is not very obvious. this is why everyone on tour are frustrated when they play this guy.
@@revanfein honestly from what these highlights indicate at least; Farag is no better
@@mrksgo6122 You can watch the longer highlight on squashtv - almost all points Asal won in last game were because of some sort of block
The state of the PSA honestly. To watch one of the best ambassadors for squash (Farag) get unfairly beaten by the cheater Asal, only to glorify him by saying ‘let’s hear it for your champion…’
It seems to be so obvious to all the fans yet the PSA do NOTHING. BAN ASAL!
I clearly understand Farag's frustration. I haven’t seen the rest of the match, but the last point alone explains it, as it's clear that Asal always looks for some interference in the center with Farag. Asal stands out for his precision and power, but unfortunately, I clearly see that he also stands out for seeking the other player to interfere just enough. If this continues to be allowed, squash will start to resemble the worst aspects of football, where it’s not just about playing the ball but also about obstructing the opponent. And I’m sorry, but squash is a more dignified sport than that.
The PSA must ban him again....
The tension lies in the fact that, in squash, when you're playing the ball, you have the right to take a reasonable swing. However, after completing your shot, the other player is entitled to direct access to the ball, meaning the player who just finished their shot should clear the way for the incoming player. In the final point, you can see that Asal makes no attempt to clear a path for Farag. In fact, he drifts into Farag's path and, at no point, adjusts his movement to make it easier for Farag to reach the ball.
This reflects the current state of squash, where the spirit of the game is weakened. Players don't play purely for the love of the game or out of respect and compassion for their opponent. They're willing to sacrifice camaraderie, seeing their opponent less as a fellow player and more as an obstacle to winning. Their fixation on victory leads them to neglect giving their opponent a fair opportunity. This creates tension, especially in professional sports, where the desire to win is so strong that having compassion is seen as reducing one's chances of success. As a result, players may feign ignorance, claiming they didn’t see their opponent or were simply moving to the tee.
The rules should emphasize that after completing a shot, a player's next responsibility is to actively locate their opponent and clear the way for them. While this may already be part of the rules, it's challenging because, when hitting the ball, you're focused on it and may not always know where your opponent is. This allows players to justify their actions by saying they were moving to the tee, which is standard practice. But it's not enough to just move toward the tee and risk colliding with the other player. There should be an active effort to sense their position and give them access. That is the true spirit of the game.
I don't believe Asal fully embodies this spirit. He played extremely well and deserved to win based on his performance, but he could do more to represent the sport in a better light.
Also, it's difficult because after you've played your shot, you'll generally want to watch your own ball as it's going along. In squash, you're often taught to keep watching the ball all the time, but there should be a rule, in a sense, that after you've played your shot, you should first locate your opponent, and then you can continue watching the ball.
Asal, for example, is so in the zone that he's just watching the ball and moving back to the tee. You never really see the intention or the effort to look for the opponent to make space. Or maybe he does do it sometimes, but he also sometimes doesn't.
A referee's decision on how strict they are with lets and strokes should also be based not only on whether there was interference but on how much effort the clearing player is making to locate their opponent and make room. So, the rules should emphasize more clearly that there needs to be a deliberate effort from the clearing player to actively look for their opponent and clear the way.
Never seen Farag react like this...wow, he must have been absolutely fed up with his opponent/ref. I guess everyone has their breaking point. I didn't watch the match, so I can't comment any further. Can PSA + SquashTV please take note....every...single comment is about the BEHAVIOUR of the players/ref...and NOT about the actual squash. This should be a big wakeup call to the officials.
I really hate what Asal is bringing to the game of squash.. and sadly he's winning.. giving a bad example to the young generations.. is the PSA going to just watch as the game is being ruined?
J’ai assisté aux 1/2 finales et à la finale.
Je n’ai jamais vu un joueur aussi fort qu’Asal. Il est au-dessus de tous les autres par son physique incroyable et sa capacité à déclencher des coups hallucinants avec une extrême rapidité.
La 1/2 Farag-Elias était un match merveilleux dont je me souviendrai toujours et la 1/2 Asal-Coll m’a dégouté du squash… heureusement que Coll est très solide car n’importe qui d’autre aurait eu les genoux détruits par les agressions répétées d’Asal.
Les mouvements répréhensibles de jambe arrière venant couper la trajectoire de l’adversaire sont la base de l’anti-jeu d’Asal. Il a déjà été suspendu plusieurs mois pour ça et l’a un peu atténué pour que cela se voit moins, mais il l’utilise toujours à des fins tactiques. Il l’a fait contre Coll et il l’a fait une bonne dizaine de fois en finale contre Farag.
Les matchs d’Asal sont aussi hallucinants qu’horribles à voir et m’ont laissé un profond dégoût.
tout pareil...
And this dude is supposed to represent the future of squash. Glad I cannot play any more, I don’t enjoy back alley knife brawls.
Naughty at the end from Asal I think
I support Farag and Asal, but what Asal is doing is not sportsmanship at all, he knows how to abuse the game and block other players in unseen way to referee.
So how can you support them both? You're the kind of person who supports cheaters? Asal should be banned from this sport forever.
Bad referee standard
Referee is acting like a bad cop. Missing the obvious then punishing the victim while it was in fact the referee who was not paying attentions and who's poor refereeing led to the frustration of Farag.
It's high time for WSF to review rules 8.1 to 8.12 with their 30 paragraphs (!), otherwise Squash will make a brief appearance at the next Olympic Games (like Breakdance).
This sport, whose universality is equivalent to Basque Pelota, has become bland to watch at a high level, with its procession of interferences, judged in a surprising manner.
This observation is highlighted by the excellent preparation level and game perception by pro players and a refereeing corp out of step with what is happening on the court.
I was well against Asal when he was behaving the way he was but I don’t really see anything in that match. Maybe Farag was annoyed at other referee decisions like perceived double bounces, double hits or the like? Credit where credit’s due Asal played well.
He's back at it again
That 11-4 stroke was hilarious. Farag ducking to not get crushed. Quite elegant, actually.
Last point looked clean. Can't speak to the rest of the match. The players have no choice other than to accept the refs call, despite how they see it.
Paris squash has one of my favorite marches now!
Nothing wrong at the end there, Ali got himself out of position to hit that last drive from Mostafa, no interference or traffic problem at all. James Willstrop has done good things with Asal since taking over the reins, well played.
I agree. Asal maybe shut Farag out on match ball, but it was a poor length by Ali.
hes a cheat
If you watch it at very slow speed there is contact between Asal's left foot and Farag's right as he moves to the side. Impossible to say whether it's intentional, or maybe even Farag's fault, but I know which player has a better reputation for clean play.
@@watching99134 I agree that Ali has a better reputation, but I don't think Asal should be punished in this case. As you say, any movement was small and Farag got himself in a poor position from a shot that landed around the lenght of the service box. It was begging to be hit.
I like Farag, not so keen on Asal though I see how good he can be for the game. I have seen Farag pusing the boundaries too when he is under pressure, Which is not often
Asal very clearly obstruct farag , he need to stop playing dirty
Does PSA Squash TV have a TV app yet? And do they have 1080p50 livestreaming yet?
asal should enter wrestling in the olympics 28 rather than squash, that is a better fit. I don't get why referees don't interfere with all his blocking the opponents
Sad to know juniors look up to Asal. Hate to see him win like this..
Squash will be the breakdancing of the next Olympics if matches end like that.
Congrats to,Farag. He was too upset with his game today I believe. Balls too loose
Asal can win whatever he wants, it will be hard for him to be no1 in hearts of audience….. scars are deep due to his arrogant behavior
Farag recovered well from his long Semi-Final. A very tough Final by the looks of it. Asal must have played really well to win.
Asal's racket setup and overall preparation over the past two tournaments seems to be very effective. When he goes in short or for a kill shot he looks confident and not worried at all even if its not a clean finish. The ball seems to be bouncing and landing more in his favor than you would generally expect, even when he doesn't seem to execute well.
Currently he seems to be able to take a swing at the ball much more freely. That high volley backhand straight knick he hit is one you do not often see.
With Asal exerting more pressure with his shots, any blocking from his side if it happens may become even more difficult for referees to notice.
If Farag figures out how Asal is executing so well in his attacks and is able make the adjustment in his own timing and racket setup to attack better then it will get very interesting.
I'm in with you Farag, at the end of the fifth game, it's so confused
Why on earth do they keep calling him Mustafar ?
It's not the Star Wars planet Mustafar nor the wizard Jafar from Aladdin.
MOSTAFA, that's the name.
O and not U (even if it's pronounced somewhere in the middle between the two)
No R at the end.
It’s not an English name, there’s also a unique “S” and “T” sound in the name Mustafa مصطفى
If you’re gonna critique the pronunciation of an unfamiliar name to the language, you’re fighting a losing battle…
Get a grip
@@cazz3000 Oh, come on...Mostafa is a difficult name to pronounce now?! And even if it was, official commentators should make the effort to pronounce it correctly.
Can't recall them mispronouncing Gaultier, Bonmalais, or Subramaniam...
@@liorlotem all those examples still contain letters of Latin origin.
But, by all means, go ahead and contact them, you know, if you’re the guy to teach them how to pronounce ص and ط and ى correctly…
…go to Egypt and pronounce the name “Mustafa” as مستفا and see how the locals laugh in your face.
It's an English thing, they also order spaghetti and say they ate pastar.
If you set the video to 0.25 speed, you can clearly see that Asal discreetly kicks Farag on the heel, enough to interfere with his movement and make him lose the final point. Absolutely disgusting.
Yes. It looks like Asal kicked Farag's heel when Asal finishes his movement after hitting the ball. And also maybe he touched him also with his left hand? It would be better to see it from another angle. But watching this in 0.25 speed helps a lot. Shame they didn't video reviewed it...
I'm not so sure, every coach teaches you to play and recover position as a single movement. This is what Asal did here... it was not a block it was a natural movement. I see some super clean payers adapt this movement if they know their opponent is that close to them and Asal didn't. I'm not convinced the last point is anywhere near as clear as everyone is making out. El Shorbagy used to drive me mad with his wider than required stance but I don't see Asal being anywhere near as bad IMHO.
@@PaulSamTube If you're not so sure means you didn't review the final interference at 0.25 speed and see how Asal clearly kicked Farag in the heel on purpose. Facts don't care about your 'feelings'.
@@mcfistro9372 I wouldn't reply if I hadn't reviewed the interference. I disagree it was a kick as a kick implies a deliberate movement to target the player. Words like 'disgusting' are inappropriate in this particular case as there is no way even at 0.25 speed one can deduce this. If you just want to ASAL bash, then fine go ahead, everyone else does. He's a much improved player in every respect in my view.
It’s an accumulation of irritations from Farag due to Asal do very poor efforts to clear position after hitting the balls most of the time
If Refs don’t sanction players like Asal, the only thing happening is there will be more players like him coming into the sport… for better or worse
For the last shot of the whole match, which Asal repeatedly using this little cheat movement which u can see it clearly while playing the video in 0.5 speed , when he hit the straight kill , right at the same time that the ball off from his racket , his left foot already stepping directly very close to the line of farag, which obviously restricted the opponent movement
It looks like Asal also kicked Farag's heel when Asal finishes his movement after hitting the ball. And also maybe he touched him also with his left hand? It would be better to see it from another angle.
I'm not so sure, every coach teaches you to play and recover position as a single movement. This is what Asal did here... it was not a block it was a natural movement.

El Shorbagy used to drive me mad with his wider than required stance but I don't see Asal being anywhere near as bad IMHO.
The highlights don't really show Mostafa doing much wrong. Perhaps there had been more going on during the full match. In fact there are two points in the highlights at 2:43 and 3:52 that show Faraq not clearing adequately for Asal. Got to be fair all around. Asal outplayed Faraq in this match.
Asal outplayed Farag completely. Farag does get a little testy when things aren't going his way. Asal is the defacto World Champion with these last 2 champion titles.
found asal's youtube account guys
ألف مبروك لعسل 🎉🎉
Cameras ref's the PSA professionals everybody is watching so the player is also reffing the game and wants his way, match with Elias finished him, us he good yep, but the Raging Bull , takes a break and gives him some consolation and comes back to show who is Boss....
Yet again, Asal, cheating and bullting his way through all his matches to the win. His opponents spend more time on the floor than in any other match, how long is it going to be before he permanently injures someone and ends their career. Why arent the authorities doing something about it, its soooo blatant. James willstrop has totally failed in getting him to play a fair game, its a shame because I used to like James, but now I have lost all respect for him.
Wow, I've never seen Farag lose his cool ... Must've been the back-to-back final losses to Asal ... Otherwise Farag is so Zen
@4:33 if you watch it in slow motion you can see Farag could have gotten that one
Not to mention the fact that Asal's shot appears to be down, clearly touching the tin. Should have been Farag's point.
What happened to Asal vs Coll highlight?
Not advantageous for the PSA to show?
They only show 1 semi final highlight, farag vs Elias is the more interesting match up
It's available for members
@@deikvel ja, i saw that.
The referees are simply too weak... the referee from the solomon vs asal game where asal started crying was a class act, firm, and took none of Asal's BS...made me laugh when he started crying and throwing a tantrum, what a clown...
Nothing wrong done. Squash players are used to this shutting out the opponent. Even farag does this. He acknowledged this in the documentary on asal the raging bull when pointed out by mo Elshorbagy
I think Farag's frustration with the arbitration decisions in 2 consecutive games. He came on top in the first game, didn't in the 2nd! To me, he is one of the legends of this generation, if not of all times. What became obvious is how one sided the PSA commentators as well as some crowds againt Asal all the times! In the last 2 games, Ellis and Asal blocking (i.e. using their body advantages) and yet its Asal again.
Slightly dodgy movement on match ball by Asal, but I think Farags frustration was from being well beaten today
I think Farag is human and was indeed very frustrated with his own play, agreed. No need to pile on Asal, as tempting as it it given his illustrious history.
I’m not quite sure Asal did anything wrong there. It looked more to me that Farag wasn’t getting his own way. I’m not a fan of Asal’s play however.
PSA referees are in over their heads. Squash can’t be officiated by reading a manual.
The interference must have been extreme to get Farag that pissed off.
Strange, i don't like the week way ali faces asal He seems to be suffering him a lot. He Is too passive and too wait and see. TRB sees tò dominate him personally, apart from the the game strategies. Farag becomes another player., too uncertain and nervous That happens only against asal.
Asal's a cheat we all know that now, but PSA can we fix the floor? Never seen so many players slipping over in a single tournament!
I have hated this match because of the Asal's behaviour.....A shame for our sport !....Same behaviour during the semi final against Col ! The place of this guy is not on the squash court ! At the end Asal smiles and he seems happy...how à man can be happy when he wins with this bad and dirty way ?
I don't like Asal I hate Asal but there's nothing wrong with Asal in this hilight
they're probably not showing the negative parts in this highlight video for PR reasons.
@@bujurocks8188 There's a whole lot of wokeniss preventing us from seeing the reality.
@bujurocks8188 there was no negative parts in the match did you see it or you just talking
@@ahmedyoussef4147 I must have been unclear in my writing. I know the staff are incredibly woke. I've seen Farag and Asal play many of times against everybody so I know what to expect from Farag. For Farag to scream at the end of this match at the judges there had to be a backstory this clip is not showing. Which I assume it's because the woke people making the video left out because, well, they are woke.
Seems you are not quite understanding the game
Hateful comments about Asal, but Elias did the same with Farag in semifinals, but there were no comments against Elias there!!!! clearly, a bias, subjectivity, although i am not condoning the behaviour of Asal
People love to hate on Asal
Check the comments on the semi final video, plenty of people talking about Elias doing the same as Asal
Why no Asal vs Coll highlight??
That was a dominant display. Farag always struggles with Asal whereas Cole and Elias seem to be able to match Asals strength and physically. Asal is getting better and better. Well done to Asal
@@darrentodd8626 I agree. Asal has taken a different approach now. I believe his coach is Willstrop and clearly he has worked on his temperament. Coll and Elias are the only ones who can stand up to the physicality of Asal.
Everyone says asal is moving dirty or not dirty but there’s not really much concrete reasoning as to why it’s dirty or not.
The last point is clearly a blocking movement from asal.
He takes a step out then when he recovers instead of keeping his full body angled diagonally to allow access to the ball while recovering to the T, you can see he clearly squares his lower body to the front wall by taking a step with his right foot towards the front instead of towards his left foot and look very closely at how his right knee moves forward into farag’s line slightly. It is slight, and taken individually it is hard to punish. But take a look at all his matches, its clearly a pattern.
Its hard to punish because its so slight and he is playing from the opponent’s loose shot i.e. he usually does this when the opponent is suppose to be moving around him and they do move around him he just steps out slightly to increase the contact and finish them off. You can call it smart and it may be within the rules but its definitely unsportsmanlike that is for certain.
If its not intentional, its a no let because it happens, he’s a big guy. But taken as whole considering how he moves so well in other situations even when under huge pressure you clearly know he has great command of his movements, these slight moves are not accidental and have to be punished.
Look at match point against coll too in the final, exact same thing. Slight knee forward increasing contact. Any time that it gets crucial you will very likely see that knee/hip check. And on normal points almost nothing.
Asal never can be a legend , and never can be a great sportsman he just a dirty player with great skills
Asal is so bad for the image of the sport, it is very disheartening.
From the highlights. Asal won fairly; Ali is just reacting to things not going his way.
Please watch the video again or with 0.5 speed .
헐 파라그 저러는 거 첨 보네 ㅠㅠ
지난 엘리아스도 그렇고 저런 류의 움직임 방해가 되는 행동은 어떤 판정을 할 것인가 대해 확실한 논의가 필요할듯;; 보는 입장에서도 계속 너무 별로임
This is not dissent, reffs looking after a cheating player. What a germ.
Asal is now in a class of his own
REVIEWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I no longer watch squash because of Asal, this player is far too anti-gaming to be an Olympic player. If the organization fails to ban these leg breaks, squash will not be able to remain Olympic after Los Angeles 2028.
It was a clean match..asal outclassed frag by his power hitting and reading frag deceptions... Frag is more of front corner player...asal kept me him on back and killed his shots...
I don't know why people blaming the boy...he outclassed every one.. he even corrected his leg hindering movements... Willsstrop worked great...
That was pathetic refereeing. It’s a hard job but decent? Really? You’re destroying this game.
Asal is not a clean player, shame on referees, bad to squash
Asal outplayed Ali fair & square
Asal ditt and Asal datt. I like it when the bad guys win. He is simply the best player nowadays
Como siempre sale su instinto de tramposo, de que sirve ganar así ?
Asal todos sabemos la verdad !!!🤓
Annoying to see Asal reverting to his blocking tactics.... really poor!!! Looks like a leopard can't change his spots. Cheating from a young age...hard to change the habit.
Asal wins by forcing Farag out of the court first at the end of each game….”being the bigger gentleman”. Farag has been doing this to his opponents for years and winning. Asal has figured out the secret.
Este es el arbitraje que va a dominar la PSA hasta los juegos olímpicos.
Farag se queja de interferencias y el árbitro tiene que verlas de oficio aunque sea una vez.
El grito final, aunque obvio, es innecesario por lo que la victoria es justa
Nothing wrong with Asal's play. People are just jealous. Keep it up Asal!!!!!
Farag was frustrated by his fatigue, His Elias match exhausted him...Asal was physically fitter than him...
Asal is such a dirty player, a truly shame, I can’t stand this guy, because of him I don't want to watch men’s squash anymore.
Ban Asal
Asal won this match. The last shot was Ali getting himself out of position and the shot passed by him. It was a no let. I don't see a ton of interference from the highlights but cannot say for the whole match because I have not seen but in the highlights there was just as much interference from Farag as there was from Asal.
Yup, still a dirty player.
Farag himself shows no movement to get out of Asal's way either in a number of the rallies shown here. Asal pushes through though. Btw love Farag but I can't point to either as most egregious blocker with this highlight video.
Well, nice to see the armchair referees here! LOL! Guess what: no one cares.......
Ali Farag, você precisa aprender a perder.
Atitude feia para um número 1 do mundo.
Hard to loose to someone that cheats.
@ 4mins watch farags leg.. 🤷🏼♂️ does Asal complain 💁🏼♂️… no he’s gets on with it and moves on and doesn’t cry !
You mean where Farag plays a good quality drop shot into the nick, and Asal decides to just collide with Farag’s leg instead of making every effort to retrieve the ball? 😂
So much whining about Asal!!!! It's tiring listening to people complaining about him now. There is a referee there, let them do their job. Other than that just admit on the day the better man won. Well done to both players!
When you see the children imitating the excessive wide base and direct movement to the T after shots then you realise why people whine, if you get 2 players playing like Asal, squash as a sport no longer functions and will die
the amount of casuals in this comment section is laughable, anyone whos watched a decent amount of squash knows that farag has a history of being a crybaby and had made multiple dishonest decisions (not calling double bounces, blocking). Blaming PSA for hiding Asal's "dirty tricks" is fuckin hilarious yall clowns just love to glaze farag and hate on asal
Asal , kills you mentally in the game... you better improve your mental strength ... life is never fair and you can sometimes face a person like asal in your life too who is not only tough physically but mentally too .. stay positive ND don't change yourself and try to win ...if lose then don't scream and stay humble as asal at least wom 90% of the points fair 👌
YES!!! Love watching Farag lose. such a boring player. 💤
People might think it Asal’s fault but it’s not. He is taking on the balls too early to give the opponent time to get back to the T. So in short its the opponent fault to not take the right line to shot as they are not really prepared for the next shot
It’s okay for Farag to get mad but not Asal. All these comments just can’t accept he is better and younger than Farag. All the excuses WTF. FARAG has manner only he is NO1. It will get more ugly when Asal becomes NO1. Jealousy is human nature. Keeping attacking Asal’s shortcomings. He is a human.
