The 2024 ** German Masters 1 4 finals will usher in a key battle tonight, with Trump facing Higgins. Although Higgins defeated Allen in a heroic form last night, he was still unlucky against Xiaote. Because since 2019, Higgins has basically not won against Xiaote, especially after a 9-game losing streak in the tournament.
In the final of the 2019 World Championships, Xiaote 18-9 Higgins.
2019 World Open semifinals, Jgt 6-5 Higgins.
2019 Northern Ireland Open semi-finals, Jr. Higgins 6-3.
2020 Players Championship 1 4 finals, Jr. 6-3 Higgins.
2020 Tour Championship 1 4 finals, Jr. 9-4 Higgins.
2020 English Open semifinals, Jgt 6-4 Higgins.
In the 2021 championship final, Xiaote 10-4 Higgins.
2023 European Masters semifinals, Jgt 6-5 Higgins.
2023 English Open semifinals, Jgt 6-5 Higgins.
In the past four years, Higgins has only won in the Champions League and invitational tournaments, such as the first round of the 2022 Hong Kong Masters, where Higgins defeated Xiaote 5-4. But in the game of grabbing 6 and above, he has never won Xiaote, and he has paid back all the "tuition" he earned in the past.
2019 is like a watershed year, Xiaote basically did not win against Higgins before this, especially the 2012 Shanghai Masters final Higgins super reversal, which injected a long-term shadow of defeat into Xiaote. In the 2011 World Championships finals and the 2018 World Championships 1 4 finals, Xiao Tedu lost to Higgins. The wizard is like a spell in Xiao Te's heart, which cannot be defeated.
But in the 2019 World Championship final, Xiaote finally won against Higgins and went out of control after that. This victory is like opening up Xiaote's second vein, and it has soared to the sky since then. Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, now Higgins is old, and Xiaote is as good as the sky.
At 9 o'clock Beijing time tonight, Xiaote faced off against Higgins, and the game grabbed 6. Will Xiaote continue his winning streak? See.
