You can make any scrappy match look exciting. But this is the essence of snooker. Two masters of the game, decades of history between them, both fully aware of nuances in their strategic position, antennae raised towards any weakness of their opponent, doing the best they possible can under the ultimate pressure, pulling out brave pots (18:30) and clever tactic decisions in spite of disheartening misses (21:44), both determined to win. This Cesar treatment here is the essence of the essence. Doesn't get any better. Thank you!
This is undoubtedly a great contender for one of the greatest matches of all time. The ability of Mark finding shots from nowhere, and Higgins’ ability to seize the slightest chances to win the frame from behind and keep himself in the match was fully displayed in this match. Probably not many players can pot this tough red 44:40 in the middle under such pressure. If you haven’t make a video on it I would like to suggest the 2011 WSC semis between Ding and Trump, that one is another classic!
Amazing play from two pure legends of the game. Brilliant to watch this again. Thanks as ever Cesar! Happy 2024! 36:55 - that was a kick. So glad the new Finnish chalk is the new technology in snooker! All but eliminated the great spoiler of the sport - kicks.. Good riddance!
The clearance from John to make it 17-16 is one of the best in history. I literally know what he thought at that moment. He knew that he was better. And having this thought in mind he made a mistake (pink into the left center) that brought Mark into the game again. At that moment everyone would break. But not John! Just listen what Hendry said at 47:23 )))) That’s true! But i was cheering for Mark since 1993-1994! And his wins through that championship made me very happy for him and his family!!!
Remember this match like it was yesterday. I was rooting for Mark from the moment he got into the final. Yet another great pick from the archives' Cesar. ☘
I realized one thing , Higgins is bad at snooker but very good at dropping the balls and making positional shots and checks for next balls Great game from both players A masterpiece and class by all standards 🤲🏻
Tired, nearly exhausted, losing confidence, but carrying on calmly !. Stretched, what seem to be simple mistakes, and yet, underneath it all, possibly still enjoying, even loving the game. Many of us would have wanted to throw our cue to the ground and 'walk'. Are these chaps human? Seems that they are ! J .
That tip on the spin, if you could do that on all the nasty shots that would be brilliant mate. I'm trying to learn this shit and if you do that ill watch and like all your content.
No, because he managed to get the white (cue) ball to land right on the cushion which makes it much more possible to sink the yellow ball than otherwise, which is right on the cushion just short of the pocket

Agreed 👍🏼
Presume you mean 18:15
In this offseason period we need entertainments and Cesar once again provided it to us. Snooker content are always the best when I am alone!

One of the best matches in Sports and Snooker history by the best editor and content creator on UA-cam 🎉
For me it was the best match i have ever seen! And Cesar made this video worthy of this match!
Brilliant editing as always from CM ❤
Classic final between two all-time greats of the game. Many thanks for uploading.

A fantastic match by 2 of my favorite gentlemen. Great video, sir, thank you.
Higgins shots are so clean and crisp! You can hear that sweet contact sound.
I love it!❤

It’s almost criminal that one of them had to lose. Excellent editing of an incredible match.
one of the best! thank you Cesar!
40:19 I honestly think the snooker break as _a thing_ .. is one of the most beautiful things there is.
Thanks for this one! How had I not seen it?!
Great game. Thanks Cesar.
What a match. They both deserved it. But there can only be one.
Well well well what a performance from these both legends ❤😮
thank you for this great content
Two of the greats. Superb match.
Woq!
(Now I finally understand why I'd been told this was such an amazing final match, )
Mark ❤
30 breaks over 50 between them. Not too shabby.
49:15 OMG the best shot...
What a fabulous match that was ....
What a player, both of them 🎉
This match is tense. I am coming back to watch again

I like this match between the masters
The most beautiful game outdoor is football. But the most beautiful indoor is Snooker!
18:15 see william making gesture
He was still on the shot. Believe it or not Steve Davis was a bastard for that.
@@JonnyMack33 yeah and the mark william is also bastard
Cool.
Молодцы. Хорошо играют. Интересно смотреть.
Как не крути- Вильямс молодец.
11:33 that young boy defo British - extremally ginger
I'm feeling tightness in the chest....just watching this.
What an emotional shift

MARK 3RD GREATEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME AFTER RONNIE AND SELBY 👍
Where was Robbie Williams?
9:54 why did people clap at this moment? the white ball shouldn’t touch another colour ball after potting a colour ball? rookie here ☝️
No, because he managed to get the white (cue) ball to land right on the cushion which makes it much more possible to sink the yellow ball than otherwise, which is right on the cushion just short of the pocket
why does the announcer call him Mart Williams?
Soooooooo close frames 😊
Okay, looks good. But I got one problem.
Higgin messed up so much of his safety shot. That was the main factor of his losses
Do these guys know how to say anything except, "What a shot!" ???

John was never in front
sponsored by a bookies, dear oh dear oh dear. have they no shame
Bottle vs bottle
Disturbing cuts. Why not show it uncut.
Why not go to the live match instead of complaining about the best video editing on YT?
big shot this? who the hell talks like that?
100% match fixing
