LDS wrote:This first round world championship match was more notorious than glorious, but still manages to have it's place as a truly legendary 1st round match. The young boy who stayed up way past midnight with eyes wide open and glued to the action in the front row also managed to secure his own place in snooker legend, one of only a handful of random spectators to ever do so, and even fewer to do so for positive reasons.
Was it the Cliff Thorburn v Eddie Charlton match (i think 1989) which finished at 2:30am?

Two players compete for the title. Both are outside the top sixteen. One would go on to far greater things; the other would soon fade into obscurity.

Young upcoming talent in a final against a top player.
It went all the way but the top player won it in a deciding frame.
