Shocks galore at German Darts Open as Humphries and Aspinall dumped out by Plaisier and Raman

The remaining Quarter-Final will see two unseeded players face off after two of the favourites for the title at the German Darts Open were dumped out in quick succession in Luke Humphries and Nathan Aspinall.
World Master, Wesley Plaisier continues his love affair with the European Tour by dumping out Luke Humphries. He could've had it a lot easier though as Humphries came back from 5-2 down to force a decider with multiple match darts priorly being missed by the Dutchman.
In taking that 5-2 lead, he took out 136, twice 60 and 57 and an emphatic shock win seemed in the making. Humphries, however, fought his way back to 5-5, but Plaisier had the throw in the decider. He used that to his advantage with a 14-darter to win it.
World Matchplay champion, Nathan Aspinall is usually the one doing the comebacks, but it was 'The Riddler' Brian Raman this time who came from 4-1 down to seal the win.
After going 4-1 down, he then saw Aspinall miss some darts on the doubles. Raman came back to 4-4 and took over the lead with a 74 finish for 5-4. 'The Riddler' then finished the job with a 15-darter.

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
