Jose de Sousa eased past Glen Durrant to finalise the second round line-up at the
World Grand Prix only allowing his close friend a solitary leg.
But once more, the struggles were evident for Durrant and De Sousa admitted it was a real struggle to face him when he knows how well he can play.
"Well a little bit because Glen (Durrant) is a good friend of mine. He can play his best darts, a win is a win but I feel sad for him," said De Sousa to BoyleSports.
"It's a little bit difficult to play this game. He can play his game so it's difficult to play someone who can play 100%."
