'I just thought, 'you're having it.''

Stephen Maguire won an emotional encounter with Shaun Murphy Stephen Maguire says Shaun Murphy made a mistake by firing him up with fist pumps during their World Snooker Championship second round clash. Maguire won the match 13-9 to reach the quarter-finals and while it wasn’t the highest quality affair it was a memorable contest for the intensity in which it was played.

But it’s a cauldron out there, you end up getting involved with the crowd and it all came out. ‘Apart from that when I lost the plot I thought I held it in pretty well. I was trying not to pull faces, let him pull the faces, he’s good at that. I just sat, watched the table, but it was building and building. I’m trying to hold it in a little bit. ‘I know it’s good for the crowd, but I don’t particularly enjoy it. I wasn’t too happy with myself, but all my mates loved it.
