"Last year I got beat by James Wade here, so it's my first win in Kiel," continues van Barneveld. "I've known Daniel for a long time and I was focusing on him. He missed one or two darts and let me in. Very happy with the win.''
On Saturday night, an all Dutch tie with Danny Noppert awaits in the second round. ''I like Danny. Danny is an amazing player. What I see in Danny, in nine out of ten times he always reaches the last 16 or the quarter-finals. So hopefully I'm the one out of ten to beat him. Hopefully we got a great game,'' Van Barneveld said.
