Gary Anderson has claimed the opening tie of Night Two of the 2021 Premier League Darts by edging past Jose de Sousa in a 7-5 win.
Anderson has claimed what is only the second win so far with Nathan Aspinall victorious in a draw laden opener last night but he snuck past 'The Special One' who missed three darts to claim a point.
Anderson produced a superb start to proceedings with some incredible finishing. This saw him start with a 112 and a 145 to see him head into a 2-1 lead early on.
He nailed double 20 from there to go 3-1 up with a 109 average as he started to motor in the opening game.
Despite this, De Sousa wasn't playing bad and reduced the arrears to 4-3 with a break and made it parity from there at 4-4.
But Anderson edged back in front and both players held their throws from there which allowed 'The Flying Scotsman' at least a point but in a leg which could see him draw once more.
De Sousa had his chance to draw after Anderson missed a 142 drifting into single eight but three darts went begging for 'The Special One' which allowed the latter to return and hit a clutch double seven for only the second win of this year's Premier League.

- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
