    I am Egyptian, I can say without a shred of a doubt Ali Farag is currently the best representative of Egyptian and probably world squash, he's a true champion, how he conducts himself in and out of the court , is nothing but special

      Yes. But part of the disgrace also belongs to the refereeing, to commentators and the whole system that does not want to spoil the show. What a pity, an amazing player Asal but never loses the opportunity to show he can not change.

    Asal has changed for the better and people should applaud that. No real problems in this match. Last point was a lot of nothing, minimal interference. Ali should have played it. He was ruffled by Asal playing brilliantly, not bad sportsmanship.

    Asal has made an incredible turnaround with the help of James Willstrop. He is playing brilliant squash and has become a great squash player and entertainer. I is understandable why he previously received so much flack. However, even his harshest critics have to admit that he niw exhibits very good sportsmanship. There was minimal interference on this last point and any attempt to nullify the result because of this is preposterous. Give recognition where it is due. Well done Asal on a great British Open.

    People just want to hate on him for previous incidents. Fact is he won fair and square no doubt about that. He’s a deserved champion and you can’t avoid some contact sometimes in such a tight area. Even Willstrop who’s acknowledged as a very clean very fair player couldn’t avoid some tangles sometimes.
    Mashallah well done Mostafa we want to see you do well. Don’t forget our brothers and sisters in Palestine.

  • @leo_ware_
    @leo_ware_ Před 10 dny +1

    I think that all this hate on Asal is so unjust. For him to come through the tournament the way he did, playing so well, then for everyone to just disregard this and call him a cheater for 1 rally that he played in a highly intense final match of arguably the biggest title of the season is just crazy to me. If any other player did this, no one would really bat an eye, but when Asal does it, it’s like it’s the end of the world. Even Ali had some moments where he would very slightly block Asal in that final, and that is just part of the game, as Ali mentioned in the Raging Bull documentary. Congratulations Asal, and I wish to see many more titles in the near future 👊🔥

      @@cookesam6 mate, if you compared to any other sport such as football, for example, and decided to hate any player that ever dived or tried to use any deviance to gain an edge on their opponent, I think you would run out of players to watch.
      These are progressional athletes, competing to be the very best, but it’s also their source of income and winning tournaments is how you get more income. Players will want to get any edge they can on their opponent and that is just part of sport. I don’t think we should cry over 1 point, as the rest of the match was actually very clean, showing that Asal is improving massively with his movement
