Seven-time champion Ronnie O'Sullivan moved into a 6-2 lead over Luca Brecel in a high-quality start to their World Championship quarter-final.

However, 'the Rocket', 47, then pulled clear with runs of 59, a superb 128, 58 and 85 as Brecel faltered.
The winner will play either Anthony McGill or Si Jiahui in the semi-finals.
