Alan Soutar was unbelievably able to make the Last 32 at the PDC World Darts Championship on Thursday afternoon.

He trailed 2-0 in sets and 2-0 in legs against Mensur Suljovic and survived eight match darts but triumphed in a deciding leg.

“I can’t even describe that match,” said Soutar to the PDC.

“In my head I was dead and buried and something just clicked. I was just trying to win another leg.

“You don’t give up in that position but you kind of just relax and the scores start coming. That’s exactly what happened.”
