Snooker

Glad selby got through, was 50/50 but thought fu should have called a foul on himself when he clearly touched the red, it's easy to do it if you have a big lead or are a way behind but to call it in a close match would be the sign of a true sportsman

Didn't Fu lose that frame? How much more punishment do you need? Oh, and the match!

Well done to Selby, but unless Ding inspires him to up his game, it'll be either a blur of Ding-tury breaks, or another long slow Barry Hearn-hating grind.

Yeah fu lost that frame

Wow 27% of the chinese people with access to tv's watched the ding semifinal on CCTV 5 thats some audience

John Virgo picked up swearing off-mike during longest frame :

After a hard fought clash against Marcu Fu, it will take Mark Selby some time to recover today.

Not to mention his head will be at old trafford as he is a lifelong foxes fan

Selby is a tough nut.
He is capable of coping with little rest better than most.

Oh dear oh dear.
Looking like a totally one sided borefest so far.
6-0 Selby.

Dull .

6-2 @ end of afternoon session Selby missed a blue that means he would have gone 7-0 up

Poor Ding looked as if he was about to cry as he won his first frame. The Crucible is a lonely place to be sometimes.
Ding's coach Terry Griffiths with work to do to get Ding going for the evening. He needs a barnstorming session tonight now.
Will the real Ding Junhui please turn up and not the imposter of this afternoon.
