No surprise to anyone that actually knows how a dart is thrown. Duzza is a victim of his own arrogance. He's at the stage where he's being warned that what he's so positive he does is an actual fallacy. But, just as everyone reading this; he will know best and carry on as he is. Maybe he'll get lucky (99% don't) but he and everyone else will never twig it. Bo Jangles only knows not one of your so-called experts. When you have eliminated the impossible. Whatever remains, no matter how inprobable. MUST BE THE TRUTH. Fact!
Good point. He could've gone for 16s to leave 170 or 138, or even 19s again to leave 167 or 132. It's nowhere near as egregious as his "usual" exploits, though (and it didn't matter at the end, since MvG took 125 out anyway).
That 125 finish... that was so bloody good! I hope I wasn't the only one apart from MVG who spotted it right away. I was like "OHHHH LOOK AT THAT!!!" MVG really showed some of his true self here. Jose was able to keep up with him in scoring but not the doubles, which is where it really matters. Meanwhile, I said Cross was gonna follow Durrant out and so it proved... as soon as Wade beat an out of sorts Clayton (he's losing form rn it seems...) we knew that was it for Robert. Pressure's on for the remaining 8 from here though. Every point and leg counts. So don't miss it, folks.
Cause MvG is being aggressive for himself, he's shown it way more this campaign as everyone is writing him off. Price does it to try to intimidate opponents, hence why he's had scuffles with more than a few players. They guy got booed after winning a major, says it all
Feel a bit sorry for Glen Durrant as even he couldn't believe he hit the bull for that 121 finish. That alone shows he has zero confidence in his play right now.
What’s going on in the darts fantastic consistency by the players van grew in coming in to form, glen durrant just can’t do right, de Sousa the casual player just hitting loads of 180s the asp getting better every time he plays wow we even got a smile of James Wade last night can’t believe it
@@chrisg449 yeah he brings a weird energy to it, which I’m sure with fans would help match it but he has me intrigued nonetheless, would like to see him more often for sure
Gonna have to say no, not back to his best. At his best he has a 40%+ finishing percentage. Scoring was fenomenal though and the 125 brutal. Shame Glen didn't beat Wright. Would have loved that. But 8 losses on -37 legs... Damn that is really bad.
Most dart players will go back to their table and move their darts case or have a drink. They do this so they stay in their frame of mind rather than watch what the other player does.
@@darrenemptage5266 I get that, maybe he does it a bit too much? In every match, after every throw he drinks. Maybe that's why he's not quite the player he was when he burst onto the scene. Keeping too calm, he seems to play better when he has more intensity. Is he thinking too much about his routine around the water table? And not keeping focused enough on the board. He's a fantastic player would be nice to see him back to his best.
I guess because De Sousa wasn't on a finish so the cameraman thought MvG might just set up. This is MvG we're talking about though, of course he's gonna go for it!
Camera crowd went to shit since the beginning of 2020 Even messed up so much by missing the obvious D12 when Smith hit the first 9 (in Dublin) since 2017
If I said to my dad or mum '''you know what I want to do with my life 'I want to be a professional darts player ''they would have thrown me out of the house 'and told me to stop dreaming and go get a proper job 'they thought that playing darts was just a pub game and not a career opportunity '
Wouldn't want a headbutt from Mike after he hits a 180 😂 Cross got crossed out - no surprise.. Dimi is cruising.. Duzza is done for now its just not his season
I think we'll see a new name on the Trophy this year. It might be The Asp or maybe Dimitri. It won't be Glen Durrant. He's really had a bad season this year.
@@lean2281 Very easy to notice .... up to 6: 2 Cross Rob couldn't hit anything and then suddenly he started throwing everything he needed while on the other hand Aspinal couldn't hit anything .... Than suddenly in the back leg everything be the other way around .... Aspinal throws everything he needs and Rob can't hit anything ... But it's not just that ... If you watched the match you will notice where the darts ended for the one who loses leg at that moment ... As if they missed on purpose.... p.s. thats my opinion,maybe im wrong 🤝
Congrats MVG. I prefer DeSouza and cannot root for you. Your Antics belie your ability. Poor sportsman. If you are So dominate why do you need to scream yell and act like an arrogant jerk. It's darts you are not saving the world. Low class!! With more seasoning DeSouza will be just as good and beloved for him being a class act. Something you have NEVER mastered. Kudo's for finally playing to.your amazing high standard.
I agree with the roaring nonsense. Kiddy stuff that just makes me cringe and feel embarrassed for the clowns that do it all the time. (Don’t care that MVG is #2, a clown is a clown). Fan of DeSouza though, class.
@@laserbeak3551 you realize you are watching darts? You want fire 🔥 watch rugby. It’s not fire it’s adolescent posturing at the camera and maybe rubbing it in your opponent’s face.
@@trevorclapham5571 well its a men’s sport invented in the pub and its much about entertainment. In my opinion he does it to boost himself. Taylor also had many dirty tricks its part of the mental side of the sport. So i rather see some characters like Hankey, Taylor, Price, MVG, Manley than a De Sousa
the mvg sousa game was amazing
oh yes. When MvG is playing like this, nobody can stop him
They were both on fire 🔥. It was exciting
Oh! One of the best I have ever seen.
True, but I think van gerwen is exaggerating more than ever.
Hard to watch when he's screaming louder than a new born 🙄
@@Metze79 GooooooooWarrrrrrrr lol

Fact!
Jose "can't count" DeSousa leaving the 168 when MVG took out the 125.
Good point. He could've gone for 16s to leave 170 or 138, or even 19s again to leave 167 or 132. It's nowhere near as egregious as his "usual" exploits, though (and it didn't matter at the end, since MvG took 125 out anyway).
De Sousa probably did a runner at school during maths lesson.
3:57
"Can he hit it?"
"nope."
Pure and simple commentary from Adam Smith. That's how it should be done. 🙂
😂 “And not close”
😂😂
😂😂
I am so happy for MvG.....he trows an amazing darts tonight....just keep in like that bro....👌👍💪
17:06 imagine the crowd for this leg
14 perfect darts
Poor George lol
Wade looks so impressive. He's on fire now.
Bit disappointed that Cross is out but I'm glad that he was actually competitive and plays way better than last year.
I love Cross but Aspinall is a class above at present. Taking out the 146 with ease says it all. Mentally tough and has the ability.
@@evannierenberg1007 yeah Aspinall plays fantastic darts at the moment
@@Zarkava8 yes he is. Unfortunately his opponents have also played better.
@@linkvagar2336 This year De Sousa beat him with a 91 Ave, Wade beat him with a 88 Ave. How's that playing better. 😂
@@Zarkava8 but those matches were one of the first, when he was not at full form
Great to see MVG like this
Him or Jose wins it
@@josephhunter907 De Sousa just got humbled by MVG, how's he going to win it. 😂

Haven't heard MvG roar like that in a long time!! Amazing darts!
MVG should wear a Lion's mane on stage 😂
Funny how everyone loves aggressive mvg but hates when Price does it. I especially like it when they play each other. What a shame Gezzy not playing.
Cause MvG is being aggressive for himself, he's shown it way more this campaign as everyone is writing him off. Price does it to try to intimidate opponents, hence why he's had scuffles with more than a few players. They guy got booed after winning a major, says it all
Price's roar might be a bit ott but he does it to gee himself up, just like MvG...who uses his celebrations to intimidate as much as anyone.
@@l7767 he has been wayyy ott this whole premier league and that 79 checkout roar was to intimidate mate be real
Price will roar at scoring 100 if his opponent is ahead and looking good. MVG roars are almost exclusively when winning a leg
@@iangarratt5715 have u not watched the premiere league this year? Hes giving it large on everything mate
I miss one evening and of course MVG is putting on a show...
The difference between pre and post covid Duzza is insane, I wonder if he'll ever recover
Nothing wrong with his health, it's his arm thats the problem. 😂
Got to feel sorry for Durrant, he didn't deserve to leave with 0 points.
If you don't play well you deserve nothing, he's only got himself to blame for playing crap darts, He needs to stop feeling sorry for himself.
@RHYS He might just break his duck against Cross who's not much better than him. 😂
Feel a bit sorry for Glen Durrant as even he couldn't believe he hit the bull for that 121 finish.
That alone shows he has zero confidence in his play right now.
Brilliant 125 checkout from MVG.
Raining 180's from mvg vs de sousa, incredible delightful throws..whew !
What’s going on in the darts fantastic consistency by the players van grew in coming in to form, glen durrant just can’t do right, de Sousa the casual player just hitting loads of 180s the asp getting better every time he plays wow we even got a smile of James Wade last night can’t believe it
my beautiful Jose de Sousa !!!
Portuguese pride!
great combat with a special player!
come on portugal ... good arrows !!!
When he learns to count, his gonna be a real monster.
Cross drinks more water than a fish. 😂
The big fish
Best MVG has been in a long time
Gary struggling on his double out 😄
I feel so bad for Glen. I am sure he will bounce back soon enough. He is a champion after all. Wish him good luck against Rob tonight!
MvG beast Mode 😎
Aspinall 146 was amazing
I hear Duzza went home and tried to kick his cat but unfortunately missed
🤭🤝🏻
Bwahaha
Come on you can´t be mean to him :(
Sorry Duzza but that deserved a chuckle
Cross seems to let pressure over come his raw ability. Aspinall believes in himself always.
Mighty Mike is back
Playing like he did tonight he is, but you never know which MVG turns up nowadays, he's a joy to watch when he's playing well.
Can mvg be any more of a tool bag 💼 than he already is
Does anyone know what the boxing commentator is called
Really like Adam Smith on darts atm 😀
I thought the same it sounds weird like he's commentating on a fight
@@chrisg449 yeah he brings a weird energy to it, which I’m sure with fans would help match it but he has me intrigued nonetheless, would like to see him more often for sure
MVG is back
I hope De Sousa goes to the playoffs
Again I love Cross but final " close " score not telling the story. When the pressure on it was one sided.
When the Green Machine gets going, nothing matters!
Duzza looking a bit on the BDO side lately
Bout of covid has wrecked him for the time being...
@@davemuckeye Yeah, its sad. But no one can take his title from last year away.
Did anyone know what happened to Duzza?😕
He got caught by Corona and after he recovered from it he plays awful
he was the bdo king for too long, joined pdc had a run of luck and is now failing, he should of left bdo sooner
@@richiedaly87 luck, lmao... you don't become #12 in the world with luck + he won Premier League last year (which doesn't even earn ranking money)
Rob Cross ....... good darts player ........ nuff said
What's with these tournaments? Is this simply due to the pandemic so they do more frequent games? How do they determine who is this years world no.1??
Is desouser called the special one because he can't count
WHERE IS PAUL HINKS???
Gonna have to say no, not back to his best.
At his best he has a 40%+ finishing percentage.
Scoring was fenomenal though and the 125 brutal.
Shame Glen didn't beat Wright.
Would have loved that.
But 8 losses on -37 legs... Damn that is really bad.
Anyone else think De Sousa hitting D15 after going inside on tops was a miscount 😂😂
DIMI FTW!
Anyone noticed how cross always sips his water whilst the other player is throwing.
I didn’t think much of it. I guess he just likes to stay hydrated I don’t think there’s much worth mentioning
It'd be hard to do it while he's throwing

Mvg making a statement
16:40 That reminds me of ian white bust it at the uk open
Cross was drinking a lots of water 🥛😀
It's hard to watch Durrant struggle like this. 😞
Why don't we get this on BBC America anymore????????????????????
I'm finding Van Gerwen way more irritating than Gerwyn Price in 2021. He sounds like an extra from Braveheart.
Cross and Durant can finally battle it out at the bottom next match haha
Will be a great spectacle for a blind audience 😂😂
@@Zarkava8 yep , hahahahha
14:20 how does the cameraman screw up so hard it’s such an obvious checkout🤦♂️

Why persistenly participate Rob Cross when a man serves only to share points with MvG's opponents....

Rob cross is good but not good enough for this league,
The only thing Cross is good at is rubbing his leg. 😂
Also very bad at handling pressure i think
Mvg a little too drunk or just screaming too much? Embarassing
I guess it is to frustrate the opponent...
