Ronnie O Sullivan Claims The Referee Was Looking For Trouble During An Outstanding World Cup Controversy

Marteel interrupted the proceedings in the final round of Sunday’s first session after being offended by something O’Sullivan did – but did not reveal what it was. O’Sullivan retaliated by telling him to go check on the cameras, while Judd Trump was also outraged as the delay risked affecting his next shot. World Championship O’Sullivan grabs the frame with the amazing “cocked hat double” in final black 2 HOURS AGO The six-time world champion walked away without shaking Marteel’s hand as Trump held on to his nerves to reduce his lead to 5-3 at the end of the first session. Asked by Eurosport’s Rachel Casey about the incident, O’Sullivan said: “I think he seems to be looking for trouble. I just have a sense of the guy. “They have hundreds of cameras out there, they can go and check them all, make them slow motion. “He’s trying to say… I’ll let the referee talk to you, but I’ll have none of that because I think he’m just trying to create something. “He has to face it, not me.” “I’m looking for trouble” – O’Sullivan for referee Marteel

WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN SOLIVAN AND MARTEL?

O’Sullivan was steaming towards the eighth frame when he accidentally stuck himself behind the blue while playing at the yellow table. He then tried to play safely outside the yellow card, but lost the ball completely as the white ran around the table and on the black for a seven point foul. Trump was ready to enter, but before the 2019 champion could play a shot, Martel made a line for O’Sullivan in his chair. See how an unusual conversation unfolded:

• voices are not heard at first * Sullivan: “What did you see?” Referee: “I saw it.” Sullivan: “Come on, what did you see?” Referee: “I’m not going to say it on TV.” Sullivan: “Tell me what you saw. You did not see anything. Go and look at the camera. You did not see anything. “ Sullivanpointing to the referee: “Do not start”. Refereemoves away: “I am not”. Sullivan: “Go and check the camera. ” Then Trump, who was upset at the break as he weighed a huge shot during the match, got involved. Referee: “I had to say something, Jade.” Trump: “You could have said that after the game.” After a long pause, Trump came down and sent the yellow card to the Crucible with enthusiastic applause. He duly sent in the rest of the paint to grab the frame and erode O’Sullivan’s lead. “Well, when I said he had it all, he really has it now,” David Hendon told Eurosport. “It was very unusual what really happened there.” “You have to be very strong as a referee” – McManus and White clash with O’Sullivan

WAS MARTEEL RIGHTED TO STOP THE MATCH?

Jimmy White and Alan McManus gave their views on the incident in the Eurosport studio. “I felt a little bit for Trump there because it’s Trump’s shot and the referee is sitting in Ronnie O’Sullivan’s corner,” White said. “I think maybe he should have waited until the end of the match.” However, McManus defended Marteel, saying it was not an easy task. “I think he has to be cautious at the moment,” he said. “If he thinks something unexpected has happened, he has to deal with it and direct the movement out there, that’s his job. Do your job. “You have to be very strong as a referee. Maybe at that moment, it is discretion. “Trump has a big yellow end to the session, the last two minutes of the session. Maybe wait? “But this is not a critique of Olivier Marteel. He has a hard job out there. It’s not an easy call, it’s a difficult job. ” — Broadcast the World Championships and other top snookers live and on demand at Discovery +. You can also watch all the action live on eurosport.co.uk.
