I hope that the kids in the audience took notice of Asal's behaviour. In the final in front of his home crowd he kept up the sportsmanship to the highest level, and accepted his defeat. Well done Mr. Asal, you have grown in a way that many people probably didn't think was possible.
Looked like he gave up
Grown up but lost his mojo.
well when you play a 5 setter against Coll the night before and dont finish playing until 3am in the morning and didnt get to sleep until 7am after physio, shower, eating and resting as well as a drug test to boot. I highly doubt you could pull off a convincing game either
@@trayc1976 3am...that's crazy! That should never have been scheduled like that
@@mabu100 The organisers could not keep to schedule, over 1 hour late most days, disappointing..
No applause from the crowd when Elias wins 😮
Too bad, there is a lack of education and class.
a crowd full of children, literally
Xenophobia
What do you expect from 1500 six-year olds?
Yeah. Sadly zero class. Explains a lot of asal’s behavior. Most of the top Egyptian players are very classy and fair though ( Farag, gawad, momen, hesham, etc).
Diego only dropped 1 game in the whole tournament! And it was against Ali Farag 👏
Elias you star! Great match.
To the Egyptian crowd : pahaha 😂
BEAUTIFUL to hear the silence of the Egytpian crowd as Asal hits the tin, even more GRATEFUL to hear Diego screaming vamos as he wins the tournament 🎉🎉
As an Egyptian, I cannot be any more happy for Diego. Well played, one of the most talented players. Tough crowd, but you made it through, Congratulations :D
Felicitaciones Diego...el Perú está orgulloso de ti, te darán los laurales deportivos, tu nombre estará en el estadio nacional, y todas la generaciones te recordarán.
English pls. No spanish
@@perureggaeton Calla kgda
@@perureggaeton so he has to speak only in english cause you dont know spanish? hahaha this is the saddest comment in 2024
Asal just left his a-hole mode behind when he acknowledged the back wall nick double.
That was a classy act.
Congratulations Diego Elias. Fantastic tournament. Very well deserved.
They should stop holding the matches in Egypt. The crowd is a real disgrace😢😢
too many children in the crowd
It's natural for fans to get caught up in the excitement of the moment and cheer on their home player with passion. Let's cut the Egyptian crowd some slack.
@@Mr.X20117 But there must be any appreciation at the end. Anyway, that's typical Egyptian audience
Great play from Elias. Not only stepped up his gameplay, but also the physical "pain" he's willing to take to go for the win. Kept his head cool as well, so I think this tournament is a big marker in his career.👌
Congrats to Asal well, showing what he's capable of without the need of crossing lines. 👍
Hope they both can keep this level of play up! 💪
Amazing match, good to see these two shaking hands
Felicidades Diego…eres un guerrero!
Congrats Elias!!!🎉
So happy Elias won. I actually give Asal a lot of credit, his demeanor on court is way better than it used to be. Still not a fan of him but he’s much more watchable most of the time.
But that crowd… I’ve never been rooting so hard against a crowd.
I hated watching Asal at first but the guy has won my respect and I am definitely a fan now.
The perseverance from both players is amazing
Kudos to Asal for approaching Elias, shaking hands and appreciating him. True legend and great sportsmanship spirit 🙌🙌
You mean perfectly normal behavior from anyone?
True legend? Lol
Elias is the sportsman for shaking his hand after all their history
XD
My God that was such a satisfying win 😅
9-10: insanely long rally, with collisions and dives
10 all: backwall nick ace
11-10: opponent hits tin
that's the greatest Karma I've ever seen 🤣
I was wrong. I thought that in front of an Egyptian crowd, defending the world championship, with a ref who was surely under tremendous pressure to deliver, Asal would revert to form when the match was on the line. But he didn't. That was the most rhythmic, free-flowing match I've ever seen between those two, with them gliding around and deliberately avoiding each other. It was exactly how you want this game to be played. I doubt he'll ever see this, but I misjudged you, Mostafa. You won this event more than you ever did before and we'll be lucky to have you on the tour for the next decade or more.
Don't anoint him king just because he didn't play dirty; it took multiple suspensions to get to this point.
Congratulations Diego. You really really showed the world what you're capable of..
Egyptian crowds are the worst: blowing a whistle and not applauding Elias for his win. So happy to see Diego take this one.
Not to mention the laser pointer
It's natural for fans to get caught up in the excitement of the moment and cheer on their home player with passion. Let's cut the Egyptian crowd some slack.
@@Mr.X20117 It doesn't happen in other countries though (not nearly to the same degree).
@@Mr.X20117no slack. Uneducated crowd. They were horrible through the match and even worse in defeat
@@Mr.X20117 You from Egypt or something? There's no other reason to continually defend the crowds behavior on every single comment of every single video pointing out their poor sportsmanship. It's borderline xenophobic behavior and I'm glad Elias won.
Horrible unsportsmanlike crowd in Egypt.
Congratulations, Elias. What a set of amazing performances. The best he's ever played, in my opinion.
amazing performance by Elias, his retrievals and overall fitness level are completely insane. So happy for him!
CONGRATULATIONS DIEGO! YOU DESERVED IT!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Asal has done an impressive 180 IRO sportsmanship, big respect.
Vamos Perú 🇵🇪 carajo. Eres grande Diego... bien merecido ser el nuevo campeón mundial!!! Merecías esos aplausos pero bueno, los que no escuchaste en el evento lo escucharás cuando vengas al país
Great to see Elias get revenge on Asal. Although Asal has matured a lot since his early heated battles with Asal
Orgullo del Perú!!
Gracias Diego, vamos Perú 💪.
Grande Diego, una gran alegría para el Perú
Egyptian crowd an absolute disgrace
A deserved (if strange) victory for Elias in front of a ridiculously partisan crowd. Kudos also to Asal for showing humility in defeat, which shows maturity. If his humility one day matches his strength and skillset, he'll be a world-champion for sure.
As an Egyptian that attended last season’s world tour finals between these two phenomenal players, i can tell you that the 99% of the crowd will cheer for their homeboy,
That is understandable and loyal and all
But the problem i faced while speaking with some of them is that they wouldnt even clap for Elias if he won, and that i believe we as egyptians should improve and be more like asal himself, better sportsmanship, better games, overall happier sport, and after all, we’re here to have fun
Incredible performance from Diego. He studied all his opponents , the way they play, they way they think, as if he is telling them how to play and where to play.
Very well deserved.
Viva el Perú! 🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪❤️❤️❤️
I still feel Asal's movement off the ball puts his opponent constantly at a disadvantage; so it was fantastic play from Elías.
The crowd shots and sidewall shots are more stable than the main court shot. Brutal.
Great Eliaaaaaassssss !!!!
Big hug from Brazil
He’s not from Brazil! LOL he’s from Peru. Get your facts right
@@michaelpham6379 he's saying he's sending greetings from Brazil
@@Obamnaz Diego Elias isn’t Brazilian!!! He’s from Peru 🇵🇪 google him and check the flag! You guys don’t know your squash, that’s so bad
BIG BIG EALIAS FROM PERU
Peru's Elias swept the floor with all his opponents. Grand Champion.
Bien hecho Elías, felicidades!.
Felicidades Elías
Magnificent victory. So well deserved!
Well deserved, Diego ! Bravo 👍🏻
Congratulations to Elias👍👍
But what’s wrong with this crowd??
AND THE CROWD GOES WILD😂- Makes the victory even sweeter for Elias. What happened to sportsmanship??
Congrats to Elias on such an achievement! I feel he did have an advantage over Asal, simply because of the late running of the prior rounds matches. It would be extremely unlikely that Asal had an ideal preparation for this match. I was disappointed to see some of Asals bad behavior starting to reappear. To his credit though, he was genuinely congratulatory of Elias.
Massive congratulations to Elias!!!! Thoroughly deserved. Total class!!!! Brilliant, smooth, fabulous player!!!!
Egyptian crowds could learn from Asal and grow up a little ... i get upset that parents are not telling their kids how to act while watching a sport in a small atmosphere... brutal
Amazing game though!!!
great match
Almost perfect outcome!
Well done Elias. Great rally construction (some might call it cumulative pressure) and effortless movement👌. I personally really love this style of squash.
On a side note, am I the only one at 4.15 who isn't convinced by the slowmo that the ball bounced twice before Asal got his racquet to it ?
Amazing - equal congratulations to both Diego and Asal. Diego for finally realizing that sometimes you have to be prepared to "die" on the court and to Asal for evolving from a spoiled brat into a true squash statesman and ambassador along with Diego. The sincerity that he congratulated Diego with was totally real and genuine. I can't wait for their next matches.
Elias totally dominated the game. Well done!
A victory for squash
Very well done Diego!!!!!!!!!!
The Egyptians just stunned into silence but how good Elias was they forgot to applaud. They’ve never seen anything like it!
Congratulationnnsssss
lovely
Strange to see Asal break after a few really bad ref calls. He's usually a warrior. The impartial squash fans will be delighted to see Diego win the world champions playing fluid squash.
Wahoo! A World Champion from Peru! Very impressive movement style from Elias, combining his tall physique with approach accuracy, speed and perseverence. Asal will get his WC as well, no doubt; just a matter of time.
🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪 thanks Diego
Really love watching Elias. Even against less mature players. Hope he stays healthy, and he can Power through everyone!
Appreciate the word play about the man who shaped a champion out of Elias :-)
Glad Elias won just to stick it to that crowd. Shame the World Champs are still played there
Very well played by Diego.
Congrats Diego Elias!!!
00:46 Asal testing the ref with a pathetic attempt at a stroke
Buenaaa!!! ….ademas has jugado contra el publico y comentaristas y ganado!! Bien hecho!! Vamos Peru!!!
Congrats to Diego but Asal looked like he wasnt really trying because he kept playing front court only for the first two rounds (based on what i see in the highlights only)
Huge congratulations to Diego for an amazing effort this tournament!
Good on him.
Elias was fantastic he deserved it well
Elias deserves the win fair and square 👍🏻, CONGRATS
🇵🇪
Amazing good luck for Elias at the most critical moment, but Asal didn't look like he was at the races.
The best version of Diego
No let was a great call 👍👍
Great victory diego🏆🏆
Amazing end to third game. Incredible get at 9-10, then the nick serve off the back wall. I wonder if he was going for that? I think almost certainly yes. I used to go for that, and could get it pretty close, sometimes nicking, as a mere club player.
It's fair enough to say asal behaving like true champion no blocking and elias is in his prime form and home crowd is always with home player it's natural and now they start learning to appreciate others as crown is no more in their home ......that's sportsmanship....
Can anyone tell where the sami-final match is? I really wanted to see the highlights of Coll's game.
well deserve win for Diego
Elias worthy champion. Asal didn’t fight hard enough but on the day , Elias was much better
what was the deal on the 10-10 3rd game?
can someone explain to me what happened on the serve from Elias ? I absolutely do not understand!!!
This is amazing. Elias deserves it
Interesting physique matchup here - both identical height at 6'2 and only a 4 lbs weight difference. It's not surprising there was so much contact, the game gets pretty bumpy the taller the players are.
0:50 - haha, questionably funny
can someone explain what happenend at the 3rd set at 10-10, elias serving?? the commentator says he's hit the back wall deck on the service...what happened?
the back wall nick...
Can see the influence of Power in Diego's game. Asal a little bit crushed by expectation?
Congrats Peruvian Puma !
Elias played through the bullshit interference and boy did it pay off. So good to see an honest genuine win
What a match from Elias, turning the Egyptian court into a library 😂 Asal has improved, but not for the Egyptian croud 🥱🥱🥱
Weird game. Asal wasn’t interested in winning it seems. And Elias had some ridiculous lucky last gasp gets.
Last three points are the greatest Karma I've ever seen 😂 Though Asal seemed clean this tournament, well done!
As of the audience, I am officially requesting not to host World Champs ine Egypt ever again. Pathetic behaviour of childish crowd
will Elias still be good enough to medal when squash is an olympic sport in 2028?
Ha ha a ha ha it was a done deal why oh cant you get the prediction right Johnny he was never going to loose this WC.
Isnt it funny Team RedBull swept the Championship
