  5. Van Veen wins the set and goes three clearpublished at 22:03 GMT 2 January

    Van Veen 4-1 Anderson (3-2)

    Gian van Veen didn't let Gary Anderson have a look-in.

    He misses a dart at double eight and Anderson ends up setting up 40, but Van Veen checks out the 16 before Anderson has a chance to return.

    Van Veen has been incredible but this is not a 4-1 game. That 170 from the Dutchman must have been crushing for Anderson.

    Van Veen 3-1 Anderson (0-1)

    That could be a big break of throw from Gary Anderson.

    A 10-darter to begin the set.

    Gary Anderson miscounts needing 87 as he ends up throwing 48...

    It doesn't matter, though, as he checks out 39 before Gian van Veen can make him pay.

    These are the finishes that hurt Luke Humphries, and these are the finishes that continue to hurt Gary Anderson.
