UK Championship snooker 2020 - Neil Robertson and Judd Trump neck and neck in dramatic final

Neil Robertson and Judd Trump are tied at four frames apiece ahead of the evening session of the 2020 UK Championship final.

The two titans put on a show from the start with a cracking first frame and tense opening duel. Robertson took an early advantage before losing position on a red, but Trump was unable to take advantage and over-cut a blue to let his opponent take the frame.

And a roller coaster second frame was even better.

Trump looked set to take it before missing frame-ball yellow, and while Robertson failed to capitalise Trump once again fluffed frame-ball on the blue. Unbelievably, Robertson could not clean up from there letting Trump in a third time, where he finally levelled the match at 1-1.

After the drama of the second frame, Robertson restored a little normality with a straightforward break of 69 to take a 2-1 lead.

But once again Trump refused to let his opponent pull away with a break of 79 to draw level at the interval.

Robertson produced the first century of the match after the intermission to go 3-2 up as the Aussie eased into his regular form.

And Trump followed suit with a fine 50 plus break of his own to level the match for a third time.

Robertson snatched the lead back with yet another century and his 12th of the tournament, equalling the record for most centuries hit in at a UK Championship.

But for the fourth time Trump responded and levelled with his 38th century of the season and a run of 128 as the two hit their best, scintillating form to whet the appetite ahead of Sunday's evening session.
