World champion Kyren Wilson edges past Zhang Anda 6-4 to move into the quarter-finals of the Masters at Alexandra Palace.

Chris Wakelin fouls as he goes to play a pot on a red with the rest.

The Englishman immediately acknowledges his error and know that could be the end for him.

Luca Brecel does not look under any pressure at all and knocks in a break of 73 to advance.

Does anybody want to win the eighth frame? Luca Brecel and Chris Wakelin both spurn opportunities before the 'Belgian Bullet' knocks in three unbelievable pots on the brown, blue and pink.

When he plays like this. Wow.

Talk about drama. Chris Wakelin is 54 points to the good when he screws back into the left middle pocket as he pots a red into the bottomr right corner.

Just when you fancy Luca Brecel to clear up though he misses a tough green and we get one of those twitchy frames that'll be decided by whoever knocks it in.

The 2023 world champion rolls up behind the blue and manages to get eight points in fouls out of Wakelin, who then gets four back and a free ball. That could well be the frame and it is.

Luca Brecel regains his two-frame advantage at the second attempt.

His cue-ball control is maybe not quite what he'd like but a break of 57 ensures he puts the frame well beyond Chris Wakelin.

Luca Brecel is going through his repertoire of shots as he reaches 43 but he can't feather a red into the left middle and Chris Wakelin gets to the table.

The Englishman is under a fair bit of pressure but enjoys a run of 67, which pretty much secures the frame for him.

When Luca Brecel is at his best he is arguably the most exciting on the professional tour.

While there is a break in play here is a quick reminder of the quarter-final line-up so far:

• Neil Robertson v Shaun Murphy
• Mark Allen v Mark Selby
• Judd Trump v Ding Junhui
• Kyren Wilson v Luca Brecel/Chris Wakelin

This is as good as I have seen Luca Brecel play for a long time. It is great to see. What a talent.

He will not want the interval. He is flying at the moment. He does not want to get of the table.

Luca Brecel is absolutely flying at the moment. He takes the fourth frame in impressive fashion with a break of 89.

The mid-session interval is coming at a good time for Chris Wakelin.

Chris Wakelin constructs a 47-10 lead but when he misses a red to the left corner it disappears in a flash.

Luca Brecel can't get a decent position on the final red though and leaves Chris Wakelin snookered on the yellow, which is hanging over the left middle pocket.

The Englishman goes round the angles and knocks it in and then plays a couple of great pots on the green and brown. Absolutely brilliant from wakelin, who lets himself down with his attempt to roll the pink into the top left corner.

Brecel wins that battle on the pink before knocking in a superb long black to take the spoils.

Luca Brecel gets in first but its a rather messy table and he misses a tricky pot to the left corner.

Chris Wakelin is out of his seat like a shot and gets a frame on the board himself with a break of 69.

Luca Brecel has not really done a great deal since winning the World Championship in 2023 and has only ever won one match at the Masters.

Chris Wakelin, who reached the final of the International Championship and semi-finals of the English Open, is enjoying the better season of the two players.

This really could be anyone's match although Brecel lives up to his nickname of the 'Belgian Bullet' with a sensational pot on the brown to get position on the blue and leave Wakelin needing snookers in the opener.

Kyren Wilson has actually scored 275 points less than Zhang Anda but he gets the job done.

Kyren Wilson wins a nervy ninth frame.

He got away with one there, breaking down on 52 and allowing Zhang the chance to steal the frame.

The world number 10 misses the black after getting to 26, with the frame seemingly at his mercy and Wilson moves within one of victory.

Magnificent. Zhang Anda compiles the highest break of the Masters this year with a 141 to get back to all square again.

Kyren Wilson leave him a look at a long red to the green pocket and its frame over.

The Chinese player has knocked in considerably more balls than the world champion and will fancy his chances now.

A moment of misfortune costs Zhang Anda dearly as he goes in off after potting a red into the middle when looking set for a big score.

Kyren Wilson, who has not potted a ball since the interval responds with a break of 69 to regain the advantage.

Zhang Anda knocks in six red and five blacks before missing a back off its spot to the left corner.

Was he thinking about that £147,000 bonus for making a maximum?

It matters not. He gets back to the table and compiles a break of 83. He is level and has now scored 238 unanswered points.

Zhang had two enormous pieces of good fortune in that frame, which when you are 3-1 down and struggling, the snooker gods don't always give you.
