Barney isnt playing too bad , apart from one awful finish to a leg he should have won,, but Lewis has just been too good,

Barney has been very subpar imo. Lewis has actually been woeful on doubles

Well, he's doubling at 38% at the moment, which is just about OK.

It's his power scoring that's giving him the leeway to miss doubles and still win the legs though.

Barney has no chance tonight, Lewis has missed no end of doubles for a leg win yet Barney apart from the odd shot here and there has not punished him at all.

He will be lucky to win a set imho

Barney winds me up for some reason, go on Lewis he's playing like when he was best in the world.

Just not happening for Barney tonight.

Lewis isn't playing his best darts but he's still doing more than enough.

Hope the second semi final is closer. I love a tense/dramatic semi final!

To be fair to Barney I was full sure mvg was his final and he'd turn up like this yesterday but he was great yesterday aswell

His goose looks completely cooked here though

Lewis will need to improve his doubles to win the final tho - barring a miracle Barney fightback

It's not all about % though he's missed a lot with 3 darts in his hand and Barney left on a finish. This will cost him tomo potentially

I think everyone was surprised that he turned up yesterday.
MVG and Smith must be pulling their hair out watching this (well, maybe not MVG )

Again lewis blows two doubles. He's getting it out if the way hopefully. He was ridiculously clinical yesterday

i wonder if its because he is scoring so highly he is getting to a chance on a double long before Barney, so he might be feeling complacent on them

😂😂

I was a tad disappointed as a neutral when mvg went out as he was far more likely turn up in later rounds. It was a pleasure to see that barney performance tho!

We rarely get close semi finals

I was worried my Lewis 6-2 win would be a tad ambitious. Maybe it is, but the other way

From Barney's body language it looks like he has now realised its over

I would like to see Klaason have a go in the final , ive enjoyed some of his darts, but looking at Lewis, Klaasen just isnt consistent enough to match this, an Anderson v Lewis Final could be a classic
