The Philippines' Johann Chua and James Aranas fritter away a six-rack lead but still get the job done against Chinese Taipei's Ko Pin-yi and Ko Ping-chung in their tense World Cup of Pool quarterfinal battle.
MANILA, Philippines – Johann Chua and James Aranas barged into the semifinals of the World Cup of Pool in Lugo, Spain after averting a colossal meltdown against their foes from Chinese Taipei on Saturday, July 1.
Buried in a 2-8 hole, the Ko brothers displayed steely nerves as they won six straight racks and appeared on their way to completing the comeback victory until a miscue in the deciding rack gave the Filipinos an opening. The Filipino pair took turns pocketing the six remaining balls as Chua sealed the win with a beeline shot for the nine ball.
Chua and Aranas then disposed of another Spanish duo in Jonas Souto Comino and Jose Alberto Delgado, capping a swift 7-2 triumph with a win-clinching golden break in the round of 16.
