Gerwyn Price saw off Nathan Aspinall to become the latest player to reach the Quarter-Finals at the European Championship in Gottingen.
Price recovered from 5-0 down to defeat Aspinall 10-6 in a thriller with a 103.8 average and seven 180's to defeat the UK Open champion.
Aspinall was excellent to start the tie with one way traffic at the first interval as he went 5-0 up with a 110 average and 5/6 on the doubles.
Price though finally got off the mark following up a 96 checkout with a break of throw to peg him back 2-5. Two maximums saw him finish off three legs on the spin to trail 5-3.
By the interval he had taken five legs without reply to level it up at 5-5 with a 10 average and six 180's. Aspinall though regained the upperhand sinking tops for a 13 darter to go 6-5 ahead.
Price though levelled it up and went 7-6 up and consolidated the break of throw with a hold to go two clear at 8-6.
'The Iceman' then put the icing on the cake with an amazing 132 checkout on the bull to make it 9-6 and from there he completed the remarkable victory to move through.

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
UndartedWaters19-11-2024 - Luke Littler played incredible darts yesterday in the semi-final and the final, heralding a new era of darts (along with some of the other brilliant young players who are emerging). And yet, at Luke's celebration feast, de Decker's ghost is Banquo to Littler's Macbeth, mournfully looking on.UndartedWaters18-11-2024
- Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
