How did Shaun Murphy lose his Welsh Open match?

Question

The majority of those inside the Newport Centre on Tuesday had expected a comfortable victory for Shaun Murphy against Matthew Stevens, but they wouldn’t have wanted it to actually happen.

Welshman Stevens had the backing of the home crowd and duly took a 2-0 lead. Despite a comeback from Murphy, the crowd favourite eventually won the final frame with an impressive clearance of 75 to seal a tense 5-4 win.
