I wanted Momen to win. But it’s a deserved win for Assal. He had a tough draw this tournament. Also he was close to lose the final but did an amazing comeback. He’s definitely going to dominate the game for the years to come.
I hate to admit it but.. asal is just a force of nature. He had so many tiring and drawn out matches before this but he still managed to overpower momen who was at the top of his game. Simply amazing
Can you pls suggest which shoe to buy for squash. Options are.... Asics Gel Blade 8, Asics gel rocket 10, Asics gel tactic 2 or Asics gel hunter 2. I hope I'll get your views to help me but a squash shoe
Just witnessed the birth of a future legend of the sport. Considering how hard the run through was for him to reach the Final, and to still finish the strongest...yep. Witnessing greatness
Man!! dude's a grinding machine like Paul/Makin, talented short-maker like Gawad, Beastly like Mo.Elshorbagy. Its a tough time to be a male top 10 squash player when you know someone with the calibre of Asal is hunting the top guys down time and again. He's also getting some zing into squash which many seem to not like, but it might help make the game more fun and mainstreamish? Nevertheless, Momen played really well too but man-o-man, dont think anyone can stop Asal from reaching the top and achieving new records. Congrats my dude!
Got to say for all the hate thrown at him, Asal was on top behaviour in this tournament. He was always looking to play the ball and he was respectful at the end of the match. On top of that, incredible effort to come back from 2-0 down. What a victory! Happy to support Asal if he continues on in this fashion.
"Top behaviour"? Yes he generally played the ball and was respectful at the end but that's not the issue, the issue is how he links his movement after his shot to whichever line he thinks his opponent will take.
@@watching99134 Even with his movement he was a lot better from what I've seen in the highlights. We saw Massotti complain but then a replay showing Asal clearing just fine.
i just love how most people are upset because of a 20 year old beast beating their favorite players :) just admit it,, the kid is insane and don't forget that he is still young and have time to learn how to behave better in the future.. he is great mentally and physically... people are just focused on the way he celebrated his BIG win and forgot how incredibly he played
Well done Asal!!!! Amazing comeback. I love that he's learning how to be himself while also being a good sportsman, both in terms of attitude and conduct. Yes he still took his shirt off and did a big old goofy celebration, but did it after acknowledging and respecting his opponent. You can see that Momen appreciated that. It may take Asal time to win back the wider squash community but he's going in the right direction. The current top 5 men are all 28 years old or older.... I think that's going to change soon!
Happy to see Asal's conduct improve. He'll have nothing to prove soon enough, the way he is going and that tends to help with respecting the other players as well.
Asal will change this sport forever, not unlike Ashour. His defense is just as impressive as his offense. I can see him winning many, many titles. I hope the elites of the sport would adopt him and guide him to be the new face of the sport...He sure is very exciting to watch.
@@logant6490 He is a genius kid who needs to grow up and deal with all the fame and fortune that is coming his away. Give him time and space and enjoy watching this supernatural phenomenon...Good luck.
An amazing kid, what a big heart Asal have. Beating ilyas in demi and Paul col before makes him the best winner possible..his behavior during the games have improved unbelievably well..I mentioned many times that he is going to win many trophies..hate or like him ,I simply love the way he plays
@@mellowmonsoon278 Intelligence? Intelligence and respect against players is spelling names correctly. Of course spelling other than egyptian names is fine smh......
@@peterhammer4644 so you know whom he was referring to then lol … its not an intelligence problem then , you are right. Its a different problem you have that unfortunately English language doesn’t have a proper word for.
Say what you want about Asal, but you can't deny he's got the tools to become an all time great. The only thing that can hold him back is his body breaking down given the brutal movements he makes.
Yes, his style of play will definitely take a huge chunk out of him down the line, just look at ElShorbagy and Asal's movements are 2x more intense easily. He has to be very careful with a lot of things to keep this out of world fitness and health, we want him to keep playing for long, can't have another void like Ramy.
One of the best finals in recent years (since Rami left the scene). Momen has been a favourite player of mine for a while. Both Momen and Asal play the game a bit differently to others. Both very positive attacking players in their own styles. And both being on form led to such a fascinating match from start to finish. Hats off to both.
Chill out, taking off his shirt shouldn’t be a big deal. He has some attitude problems while playing but celebrating by taking off his shirt is not a boy deal.

Who would have thought we would be cheering for Asal these past few days. Well done young man. Your talent was never in question. Glad to see you are maturing.
Asal is a new kind of player. Unbelievable athleticism and grit + substantial racket skills. Will be so fun watching him develop different parts of his game, especially once he becomes the guy to beat and other players adapt. Has any player had such an explosive forehand? The way he puts away loose balls on the right side is spectacular
Asal behaviour has let himself and the sport down in the past. But luckily he is maturing and learning to be grateful in victory and defeat. He was very humble in his speech The squash he plays is phenomenal - and I think he will only become a more likeable personality in years to come.
@@logant6490 Nah, to be fair he has mellowed on such acts. What I saw was a talented young skilled man with patience and belief. Anyone would have given up, not him.
Massive shame that Asal is disliked as much as he is. In terms of his ability, he's absolutely quality. His court coverage is just ridiculous and some of the angles from which he can find the nick is staggering. But his behaviour is sometimes hard to watch, although it seems to be improving a bit. Maybe that's wishful thinking!
Squash is a gentleman's game, he has shown little class to this point. He has not shown great maturity at his age compared to other young prodigies like Ashour. This is the only reason people dislike him, it's not his ability. He will temper with time.
@@dboko Yet he is the only one heavily criticised. I don’t like him as well. . Parker , Coll , Masotti etc are not gentlemen either, yet playing the so called gentlemen game. Squash is not a gentleman’s game and its full of old school hypocrisy.
@@mellowmonsoon278 I think at the pro level the intense competition overshadows the underlying principles. I agree many players have flashes of unsportsmanlike conduct. Asal is heavily criticized because he is more consistent and flamboyant about it.
Body of Asal can't cope with such performance for a long time. I predict serious injury will come within few seasons. It will be shame but he is not a machine. His game was amazing and unbeliavable. Shame for Momen.
To be fair, not every tournament is gonna be four five setters in a row like this. He’s also still young so he’ll recover from fatigue and injury pretty quick. I don’t think he’ll be having serious injuries soon unless something really unfortunate happens.
I think best of 3 is where the game needs to be. You will see a greater diversity of players reaching the finals and getting there fresh. Not to mention the longevity of their careers. Keep the final a best of 5 though for sure.
Tarek Momen é um grande player, mas já jogou melhor. Muita pancadaria no jogo, que é o estilo do Mostafa Asal, uma partida comum. Vou discordar totalmente dos comentários sobre que Asal vai dominar o cenário nos próximos anos, eu duvido.
I hate the definition of strokes. If the player has the opportunity to play the ball and continues to back up to force a stroke it should be a let at best... Play the ball!
Makes sense at a pro level where they shouldn't ever be trapped in the back of the court. Super annoying at the club level where officiating is worse and that situation is more common.
I absolutely cannot stand people who fish for lets, it makes me cringe at the pro level. Good players don't need to fish and show class by playing the ball.
Not a fan of that, either. Take your space and hit a winner. The striker is allowed to hit the ball whenever they want, but is also obligated to make every effort to play the ball. Unfortunately, that is a stroke all day.
Momen Momen Momen Moment's gone !! Damn he had it on his plate and just couldn't put it in his mouth. Congratulations to the freakish kid. You are far from being my favourite ... But hay !!
I predicted Asal would win; I think he may be unbeatable; although I would put stock in Makin. But I wonder if Asal has reached the top too early, and may burn out mentally...we will see.
Correct me if I’m wrong but I just discovered this sport and it doesn’t seem like sportsmanship isn’t on the priority list of anyone especially the winner of the match. I’ve only watched a handful of matches but from cheering when your opponent slips or backflipping off the glass when you should be shaking hands. Also I don’t yet understand the rules so if I’m not too late on this video could someone abbreviate the rules for me
So Asal is up and coming and he's a really good player. But he still has to earn his place after that one match in which he played so disrespectfully against his opponent and back chatting the referee. He still has to work back some respect.
Do you even know what goat means? You sound ignorant as hell right now. Ffs. He is pure talent, but he's been playing for 2 years and in your limited viee he's the goat. No logic whatsoever. Time will tell though, let's wait.
@@Alex-hz4de you obviously don't see the constant blocking, bad pick up, refusal to call tinned balls down etc Nobody wants to play him because he's an aggressive cheat

@@muhammadmopsa5269 Lol probably because they're retired/semi-retired. In their prime Asal would have no chance.

@@muhammadmopsa5269 LOLLL 😂😂😂. Not even close. He is SO FAR away yet from those guys in their prime. And they were much more harder mentally than soft Momen.
@@mellowmonsoon278 Well you see, there's this thing called a comments section on UA-cam. It invites people to make comment. But since you ask, there has been consistent comment that while Asal may be talented, his demeanour, poor sportsmanship and borderline cheating are distinct turn off for many fans. He will not change (and the people around him will not influence him to change) until this is made clear. Hence, I'm happy to say that i prefer not to watch matches where he plays.
@@mellowmonsoon278 I'm not especially interested if he changes or not! You don't seem to realise that it's not up to me to win him over but the other way around. The simple fact is, squash is a product; a commodity. It exists to make money from a fan base and the players are it's brands. At present Squash is a relatively low value product. It's a fourth tier sport where the very best players in the world earn $250, 000 per year from tournaments (plus endorsements). This ranks it just below professional eating in terms of earnings. In other words, squash as product simply cannot afford to lose fans. People will indulge youthful hubris for a very short period of time. But they won't forgive bad sportsmanship and they won't forgive borderline cheating (look at Marwan!). Consider sports like Tennis (Federer and Nadal) and Surfing (Kelly Slater) and you will see that the fans crave someone they can admire as a person, not just tolerate as a talent. If Asal is the new brand face of squash, there are bad days ahead.

@@mellowmonsoon278 I'm not especially interested if he changes or not! You don't seem to realise that it's not up to me to win him over but the other way around. The simple fact is, squash is a product; a commodity. It exists to make money from a fan base and the players are it's brands. At present Squash is a relatively low value product. It's a fourth tier sport where the very best players in the world earn $250, 000 per year from tournaments (plus endorsements). This ranks it just below professional eating in terms of earnings. In other words, squash as product simply cannot afford to lose fans. People will indulge youthful hubris for a very short period of time. But they won't forgive bad sportsmanship and they won't forgive borderline cheating (look at Marwan!). Consider sports like Tennis (Federer and Nadal) and Surfing (Kelly Slater) and you will see that the fans crave someone they can admire as a person, not just tolerate as a talent. If Asal is the new brand face of squash, there are bad days ahead.
@@777greglee You don't seem to be reading the question mate. Going on a tangent. I was not passing any opinion or justification about Asal , was simply asking a different question.
Can you pls suggest which shoe to buy for squash. Options are.... Asics Gel Blade 8, Asics gel rocket 10, Asics gel tactic 2 or Asics gel hunter 2.
I hope I'll get your views to help me but a squash shoe
