The hidden story in this game is that this was an early effort by Gaultier to make a comeback after his major injuries. Its amazing that he was ev😂n highly competitive with Asal... He is also very fortunate that Asal didn't trip him or knee him as he has done with so many players and further Gaultier's injuries...

Asal seems to ask quite a lot of referees. I really hope he doesn't turn into another Marwan.

@MervynMaistry 4 жыл бұрын

He is an 18 year old who plays brilliantly. The decisions made were far from clear cut, many requiring referee subjectivity. Marwan is also a brilliant player. BTW Gaultier is brilliant at playing the referee, not only in this game but others as well.

I thought the refereeing is inconsistent with how these points are generally called. Too reveretial to Gaultier I think.

@phinbillington1342 4 жыл бұрын

Amer Husain refs in general are taking quite a strict view on Asal because of his blocking and fishing. Don’t think it’s to do with Gaultier

@amerhusain1256 4 жыл бұрын

@@phinbillington1342 I didn't see any blocking from Asal. I do sometimes see Gaultier lingering a little longer as his movements are slowing and the umpire making an allowance for this. The call not to allow the safety on the back middle wall was inconsistent with other calls. I watch all games live. There were a few other inconsistent calls too on disallowing let's which were inconsistent not only generally but between the players.

@tascolino538 4 жыл бұрын

I'm on my forehand side of the court, my opponent plays a service that comes to my backhand. I can clearly play the return but stop to avoid hitting my opponent. I expect a let but I'm given nothing. What exactly is the message that sort of call is passing to players especially young players like Asal?

@MervynMaistry 4 жыл бұрын

Asal is brilliant in the face of ambiguous decision making. Altogether a fantastic game to watch. Undoubtedly won by the better man. However, listening to these commentators who are so shamelessly biased is just annoying. At least three unambiguous examples of bias. Mediocrity reigns. I wonder how strong their monocultural network must be at PSA SQUASHTV.... because it is certainly not professionalism that keeps them there. Another Interest point. it shows how a referees decisions (especially one who speaks to Gaultier on Skype) can make a young player insecure while favouring an older more establishment player.

@markgreen66 4 жыл бұрын

I think you need to understand the rules pal. It's a NO LET when you should play the ball and are trying to get a cheap point or are just too lazy to get the ball. Otherwise if you have NOTHING to loose you might as well ask for a let everytime you aren't 100% sure you will hit a winner.

There was no bias. Asal could have easily played through some of the balls but he did not so I think it was fairly objective commentating for me
