A special thanks to @Eduardo Godoy for recommending this thrilling match.
I suggest Judd's pool match ...
That match was really great, Matthew Stevens was really amazing player and Hunter was a amazing player and person, 15 years that he leave us.
its always wonderful to see 2 fine friends play together.
This guy had 3 ranking titles, and also 3 masters titles that he won in 4 years. 3 masters in 4 years, what would become of him if cancer didn't strike him. He would surely win world title one day and many other ranking titles, and who knows how many masters. Such a tragedy.
All three of them won by 10-9
and he was 5-1 down in all 3 finals
@@CesarMuroya A true and verified legend of the sport. Miss him so much.
Well said , without doubt would have been one of the all time greats by now , greatly missed
He wasn't better than Stevens and Dott and they both fell off as they hit their 30's.
This was one of my favourite childhood memories which belongs to snooker. Thank you for bringing it back :D
I remember watching this. Was the match that got my wife into snooker too! :-) Thanks for the memory...
Wonderful match and tensed too. The last picture is beautiful. Thank you Cesar~! :))
And their friendship makes their patience and perseverance all the more fun, every stroke a nail-biter. But still fun! J.
11:26 one of the best shots ive ever seen
Yes, it's very nice to ram one of those in.
This brought tears
The game lost 2 great players when Paul and Mathew’s Father passed away.
17:25 - what a great shot!
And 19:38!
Nice to see Matthew come from behind to win a close one at the Crucible for a change! Had Matthew not suffered the blow of losing hid Dad (his coach and mentor) at such a young age he would surely have gone that extra step and been world champion as would Paul Hunter had he not tragically passed away.
Man, idk how you have the nerves to cut the rest periods between the shots. Much appreciated even as a long time fan of the sport.
While keeping the flow of commentary...
And! Occasionally exaggerating the colour of the colours when the video lets the colouring of balls down! Even those of us without colourblindness are thankful!
Drama to the highest order indeed. What tension in a match between friends!
Had never seen this match and it is a delightful surprise. Thanks again Cesar for yet another great snooker video!
Very evenly matched these two, at the time. I think they played each other at the same stage the year prior and their rankings were similar then as well. They also both went on to lose close semi finals in consecutive years to the eventual runners-up..
A great match to watch!
12:29....ah I see they finally remembered to turn the balls colours on for the people watching lol
They are playing like friends though 😂❤️
Paul,Mathew,love you.mum 💋❤️💖💓💜💞💗💕♥️💔Xxxxxxxxxx💓
R.I.P. Paul Hunter
I don't think Stevens was ever quite the same player after Paul died
Matthew showed a lot of bottle there
If paul haunter still alive he will be the most conventual player of all time
He just potted a red, now, I think, that ball there is black. Is it? Yes!
Was this recorded with a Maris piper potato? Awful quality😐
Why the red balls appear green ?
I guess original from VHS.
@@tanikazeno3087 Very kind of you to answer !
Many thanks ! 😉
Virgo wouldn't have said that because English is his native language.
Why "Sex-Pot"???... Can someone light me, please?
He had sex with his girlfriend (and wife later) during the mid-interval of his 3 Masters finals, where he was always several frames behind, but after his 'sessions' at the hotel, he came back and ended up winning in the decider :)
@@CesarMuroya Very good story! Thank you very much Cesar! But Lord! how did the matter become public?😂
Paul himself made it public :)
