Simon Dent of England faced stiff competition today morning in the Last-96 single elimination round of 6Reds event where he finally managed to win 4-3 against Mohamed Noweir of Egypt to reach Last-64 Stage.
The entire match swung like a pendulum with alternate frame win to both the players. Noweir was at his best and put resistance in each frame that Simon went thru every time.
Initially Simon was down 1 frame to 2 when he posted a worthy break of 36 points to level the match but Noweir once again snatched the next frame on black ball to stay on lead.
A frame away Noweir was looking forward to seal the match but Simon played exceptionally well and swept away the frame 60-01. In decider, Simon once again posted much required break of 37 points to win 42-0 and confirm his berth in Last-64 stage.
