“It was good. It was a good performance actually,” Asal said after the match. “Not squash, but mentally. Today was tough, but we’re learning from that mentally, and I’m really, really happy with my mentality today.

“I kept it calm, kept it simple. It’s simple decisions that make me a bit fiery. I need to calm down a little bit. I know when the referee’s sitting in the hot seat, maybe sometimes they can make errors like the players, so I’m happy to deal with it. I’m happy to be very professional today, and the crowd, the support of my family, friends, everyone helped me through.”
