Thu 8th Mar,
Day SIX:
It's Mohamed and Tarek in five
The top four seeds - all of them Egyptian - contested
tonight's semi-finals, with the ElShorbagy brothers Mohamed
and Marwan and Ali Farag and Tarek Momen both giving
the packed crowd five game thrillers.
Marwan came so close to ending Mohamed's run of three victories
- including the World Champs final - but it was Mohamed who came
from 6-8 down in the decider to reach the final.
Tarek took the first game, but then had to come from one-two
down to create the first seeding upset of the tournament.
