Taylor followed this up by pinning D8 for a 2-1 lead and another hold with Barney having a 106 average to Taylor's 110. Barney despite having a cruel bounceout made up for it by smashing in a 121 checkout to level it at two-a-piece.
Barney gained an all-important break of throw with a beautiful 177 followed by D12 checkout to lead 3-2 at the break!
RVB missed 8 darts at double for a 4-2 lead and this allowed the Power to return and level the score at 3-3.
Both men since returning lost their double hitting and power scoring but it was Barney who hit D20 to return to the top at 4-3 with another break.
Phil left D8 but fluffed his lines and this allowed Barney in to lead 5-3. Taylor came back and held throw on D10 to reduce the defecit to 5-4 and clawed the break back in the following leg to leave it locked at 5-5 at the second interval.
The Power returned to hold his throw hitting a 98 finish on D19 leaving the match at 6-5, Barney followed it up with a 180 in the next leg followed by a 90 checkout to level it up at 6-6.
Taylor hit D20 to make it 7-6 but Barney hit back with a 180 and his trademark D18 to make it 7-7 before getting a crucial break the following leg to make it 8-7. Van Barneveld found D12 to put him one away at 9-7.

The Power came back to put him one behind at 9-8 but Barney would be throwing for the match. Barney though wired 1 match dart and Taylor came back to hit D10 to take us to a decider.
