To be honest, I didn’t think John had a clearance like that in him anymore. Incredible stuff, right up there with the Masters clearance vs Ronnie all those years ago. Like they say - form is temporary, class is permanent. 👏🏻
Defo took the bull by the horns with that double, and he could have played safe with the red on the cushion but went for it. That took a lot of bottle and courage.
It's the easy things that get harder. He can do this but might miss a black off it's spot. Congrats to him.
Higgins always had that finish in him, hes always done that and somehow found a way into the next round. Well done John, so happy for you, find that fire in the wizard once more.
Higgins and class don't go in the same sentence without an asterisk.
@@MSV19801 You mean his alleged match fixing?
That John Higgins image of arms in the air is a crucible classic for all times
The old warrior after his return to the Battlefield!
Yeah it was a proper moment, even the “old timers” still feel it. Awesome scenes, proper classic.
Reminded me of Thorburn and his 147.
Saluting his dear Dad I feel... how his Dad has missed some amazing memories. Bless him.
This man sold matches, sold himself for money - who wants to see him?
Hurts being an Irishman tonight. But what can I i do but admire John Higgins. He's a special player. Ive been watching John Higgins since I was 15 years old in the 90s. Im turning 45 years old next monh and Higgins is still at the top. Crazy
Absolutely, he’s still at the top but the pistol could have knocked him out of the top 16 tonight….crazy. What a game of snooker.
@@mrdrifter3925 yeah, cruel game sometimes.
Must hurt being Irish every night surely? Bogtrotter.
Class act versus class act. Mark will win this one day and I’ll be cheering that on, but only after John wins number 5
I'm a Higgins fan, but honestly it doesn't even bear thinking about what O'Sullivan or Trump will do to him based on current form.
One of the greatest players of all times, period. Epic comeback. I wish you the best next round, John. Congratulations from Brazil.
Well done john .watching this live I was in awe . I was shaking and screaming at the telly thanks for the thrill John. Huge bottle
Amazing what sport can do to you eh 😂 I couldn’t sleep last night
WOW! Absolute Legend Gladiator John Higgins snatches victory from the jaws of defeat. Nerves of steel. Cool, calm & collected. Never gives up! "Are you not entertained?" John 'Maximus Decimus Meridius' Higgins (2024)
Hope to see a vintage final between Higgins and Ronnie
How about a Higgins vs Judd rematch of 2019 😊
I can't bear see him losing another, he lost in 2017,18,19
@@danissshhh8157 Ronnie ain’t been playing that good though. Day could’ve won every frame in their game I’m sure Higgins will punish Ronnie knows that.
@@DJC-10 you are right though
I think John will get to the final but he’s going to bump into judd who’s gonna be very hard to beat
Balls the size of King Kong. Ripping that last red down the cushion was one of the best shots I’ve ever seen
One of my all time snooker memories. He was magnificent.
John Higgins made me cry tonight, and for all the good reasons. Been waiting to see a Higgins clearance like that for a while. The boy has still got it! 🥹
Yeah man, he’s underperformed this season. Tonight properly hit me in the feels too. Great match!
He made you cry? Really? Come on.
@@MSV19801That’s what sport can do my friend
Who's up for a Higgins - O'Sullivan Final ?? :)))) class of 92 will be an absolute cracker!!!
That was an incredible clearance. Pressure on every ball really, because one mistake and Allen would be in there to take the match. Higgins probably more relaxed on a 147 than the tension he must’ve been feeling in that frame. Glad he went for the last red too, I didn’t want another ten minutes of safety exchanges and seeing it decided on a poor safety shot. Proper, brave snooker.
I love the fairness and respect in snooker on the table and after the matches between the players.
2 potential shots of the tournament in John's clean up. The 1st and last red. It meant so much more then a quarter final slot to John. Still in the 16.
It was do or die. Soon as he got that double on the red, he was going to clear up. That final red was superb. Fair play to him.
This was the definition of snatching victory from the jaws of defeat
Absolutely cracking game, everything that snooker and the crucible is about. If money takes it away from Sheffield I won’t watch another game! Reminded me of the 2020 semis… Games like that don’t come around too often and nine out of ten it happens at the CRUCIBLE. THE HOME OF SNOOKER!
Great match and an amazing finish loved every second of it
that was the greatest clearance John has ever produced, absolutely world class
yes with the initial risk on the red double, without that he won't have won it. amazing
Reminded me of his clearance against Ronnie in 2006 masters final. Amazing. Some of what he does is unique to him. Love to see him in the final against Ronnie.
A clearance for the ages. Can't think of many better. Up there with the other Higgins, Alex.
Zhang Anda vs Ding?
Trump vs Murphy?
Ronnie vs Carter?
What a match ..
What a great players ..
What a great finish ..
Congratulations .. John
The Great John Higgins
What a match. Well done
I watched it live, an honor for me to have been witness to only the 8th decider frame in Crucible history to be decided on the final black ball.
Brilliant night of snooker..
Couldn’t agree more, reminded me of the 2020 semis. That was for me the best day of snooker I’ve ever watched.
That was an amazing final clearance, I'm pleased for the guy. Maybe he has got one last Crucible hurrah in him.
Good job john
You are hero
I love John Higgins, and I really really hope that the interviewer could stop bringing the bad thoughts back into John’s mind… He just made one of the best clearance in history and he is enjoying the moment and starts to believe in himself.. Why bringing the past few years of bad memories right here right now…
Load of rubbish. He was just providing context and getting the guy’s thought process because he had been playing rubbish for the last few years. Not everyone is as gung-ho for him!Gutted for Mark.
Well exacututed. Well deserved. Cheers!
Yesss John you legend 🎉
What nerves of steel , after all the close call losses he's been in previously, bringing it all together at the end and having the guts of a true warrior the last moment is a real life hollywood script folks.
Chuffed for him and Bingham tonight. What a group of quarter-finalists we have!
Well done John great bottle
Bless his wee Scottish tartan socks, that was amazing! Every bit as great as his clearance vs. Ronnie in finals of Masters or 2009 quarter final vs Selby.
But Ronnie beat Higgins & Judd in world finals, and Ronnie leads yapimp Hendry 9-4 in finals. That's a fact! Haha! 👍
Higgins vs Sullivan in the final would be amazing.
2:00 is facts
Lisowski vs O’Sullivan couldve been so fun but oh wellll
Lisowski would’ve folded against Ronnie mate.
@@DJC-10Absolutely no safety game and his positional play is disgraceful. Ronnie would tied him up in knots and beat him 13 5 or 13 6
@@michaelmulhall5007 I don’t even think Ronnie is playing that well at the moment either mate tbh. Lisowski would’ve got chances but I don’t fancy him to take him unless he related his heroics of a few years back.
Congrats sire!
He looked invincible 2 seasons ago. That double was his only option. Keeping it safe would of been more difficult.
It was a amazing win last night against mark well done John great break xxxlol ❤❤❤ best wishes 1:31 1:33
I had to pinch myself. Did that really happen? What an insane night of snooker.
Difficult to think they are talking of leaving the crucible. Moment like this only happens there. Magic
Didn't take him long to put all the weight back on, well done the Bungster.
😍
Gutted for mark allen. Thought he might win it this year. What a cracking match though.
Ridiculous how this man is still playing.
To all the Higgins haters out there.........This one's for you! Good on ya John. Stick it right up em!!!
So much relief at the end. He had a bet on himself to win.
Bravo Johnny Boy.....the commentator shouldn't be sowing seeds of past doubt into john's head like he did. Bad form!!!!....he should know better!!!!

@@user-if7rq3qd5u You call the GOAT cheat? Unhinged Narcissistic losers only do that. Higgins is a confirmed cheat. Sad Englishman
Ronnie thumped poor little poncey Judd last 5 times they played
You're gonna LOVE these facts! Ronnie beat poncey Judd in the last 5 matches they played included 3 finals INCLUDED
Ronnie tore three new ones for Judd where the sun don't shine

Then Ronnie beat him at the World Grand Prix Finals 2024. Your BF Judd is useless
Heard the song by your favourite artist Sam Smith , Judd perfume boy?? ROS shot WHITE muk on Judds face!
Just stop. You're in a bad way. I'll try and stop winding you up!
Ronnie O'Sullivan is the 🐐

I'm hearing reports that the match was fixed by John
This man sold matches, sold himself for money - who wants to see him?
I do!
all smiles John bent as a corkscrew Higgins should be in jail, caught on tv games a joke it stinks.

It wasn't THAT good, let's be honest. The context made it better and the double was all or nothing but nothing needed developing and seemed a simple clearance.
Pressure?? Decider?? Out of the top 16 if he lost??
@@adamski101well said, very well said . 😅😅😅❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏.

i love this man so much.. extraordinary talent.. i want him to win the title !!
Crazy to think that every single match stat was in Allen's favour... and he still lost. Higgins produced one of those finishes he was always known for..
