Van Gerwen takes the first set against the throw. Smith needs to hit back quickly or he's in trouble.

The best leg of darts of all time. It's impossible to see better.

Van Gerwen missed double 12 for a 9 darter and Smith did the 9 darter in the same leg.

I said Smith had to hit back quickly and he has in style.

That's incredible, imagine missing a 9 darter by inches and getting broken before you get another chance

I was just saying the other day that I never see 9 darters when I watch live but I was watching the leg where 17 perfect darts were thrown

I think what made it so impressive apart from making history is that Smith still had time to give Van Gerwen a fist pump after Van Gerwen missed his double 12.and then stepped up and hit his outshot.

This next set is huge for me. I said yesterday that Smith has to get to 3 first to stand a chance. If van Gerwen gets it then he will run away with it.

Van Gerwen gets to 3 first and has a break. Smith needs to dig deep into his soul now and find something special. I'd love to be proven wrong.

I'm changing location in my house to see if it brings Smith some luck.

Yeeeeesss!

I'm so pleased for him, he's been through it to get there.

Well deserved

I'll give you the story about changing locations when I get myself together and enjoy Smith's victory.

Fantastic match from both competitors.

Well done Bully Boy, brilliant performance

MVG did fizzle out in the second half of the match but Smith has messed up so many major finals that he deserves a lot of credit for keeping his composure after losing that penultimate set. Don't think this will be the last one he wins

So the story I have about changing locations during the match in big finals.

In 2016 I was at Wembley watching Hull FC vs Warrington in the cup final. With 15 minutes to go we were getting beat 10-0 there was some empty seats a few rows in front of were I was sat, so I got up and went and sat in those seats and we ended up winning 12-10.

But I got that idea from a mate of mine. I think it was 2001, FA cup final between Liverpool and Arsenal. My mate is a Liverpool fan and we were watching that game. Arsenal battered Liverpool for about 80 minutes but were only 1-0 up when they should have been about 7 or 8 nil up. My mate left his seat and stood in the corner of the room for the last 10 minutes and Owen came off the bench to score 2 and win it for Liverpool.

So when Smith went 3-2 down tonight, I thought it was time to change location and once again it worked.

If I'd been aware one of the finalists was from my hometown I'd have had a fiver on him to win.

It was down to me moving locations. Read the room.
