Huybrechts spoke afterwards and was lost for words at what he had done; he said that despite Cross not playing well he only had to deal with what was in front of him.
"I feel stunned - I can't really believe it," Huybrechts admitted.
"Rob Cross did not turn up at all and I know that but I took my chances and I won. I'm very pleased to win.
"I was strong in my mind against one of the best players in the world and I'm proud of how I fought for that victory."
