O'Sullivan in control

Some untimely misses from Mark Selby handed Ronnie O’Sullivan the momentum in their quarter-final tie at the UK Championship.

Selby played his way back from the brink of defeat and into a winning position in the fifth frame, only to miss a simple blue and go 4-1 down, and then surrendered control of the eighth frame with a miss on the final brown, leaving him trailing 6-2 at the interval.
