In the second semifinal of the World Snooker Northern Ireland Open, which ended in the early morning of October 23, 2022, Beijing time, defending champion Allen advanced to the final with an outstanding performance of 100 points and 136 points in a single shot, 6-2 Robertson . At 8 pm on the 23rd, Allen will compete with Chinese young player Zhou Yuelong to compete for the championship trophy.
In the fifth game, he scored 136 points in a single shot and won the game 136:0, taking a 4-1 lead. In the eighth game, Allen and Robertson tied until 57:57, and the two entered the black battle. In the end, Allen scored a black goal and won the game 64:57, thus defeating Robertson 6-2 to advance to the finals.
In terms of the whole game, Robertson was in poor condition. He made many simple ball mistakes in the game, and his white ball was not controlled properly, and he did not play in the third place in the world at all. On the other hand, Allen performed very well, and he was confident in the game, and the more he played, the better he got. In this case, it was natural for Robertson to lose to Allen. After all, Allen is also a very difficult player to deal with.
