Judd Trump speaking to BBC Sport: "It was hard. I struggled a little bit with the table and it was a battle out there.I didn't have my A game today and I had to dig deep at 2-2 to make that big important clearance and the game kind of turned after that.

"Mark is an extremely tough player to play against and even at the end I knew it wasn't over. I am so pleased to be in another semi-final. Amazing tournament. I can't wait to come back."

Judd Trump gets over the line. He reaches an eighth Masters semi-final and will now take on John Higgins.

Mark Allen is reluctantly carrying on. He needs three snookers with just the colours remaining.

Mark Allen gets Judd Trump tucked up behind the black and gets another snooker. He can now win this frame.

Or could've.

Trump gets in behind the blue and forces Allen to play off the bottom cushion and he can't get the red safe.

Mark Allen is having a right go at this and has Judd Trump in trouble. He lays a wonderful snooker which Trump can't hit andhe then puts the Englishman in a second snooker.

The world number one escapes that in incredible fashion. Allen is 35 points behind with 35 on the table.

Judd Trump is coasting to victory and has Mark Allen requiring a snooker to tie when his break of 68 is abruptly ended by a missed red to the right corner.

The world number 10 gets back to the table but with three reds tucked up on the side cushion, winning the frame here will take some doing.

Judd Trump is showing signs of finding some form and makes a 49 that takes him a long way to winning the frame. When Mark Allen knocks a red over the right corner pocket, Trump capitalises to move within a frame of his eighth Master semi-final.

Judd Trump pots a lovely long red in the right corner moments after missing one to the same bag.

It sets the Englishman off and while he is battling for position he is still able to accelerate to a break of 70 and take another frame.

John Higgins is known as the 'Wizard of Wishaw' but this attempted plant was definitely him waving his magic wand.

Still his 6-5 victory over world champion Zhao Xintong from 5-3 down took some doing.

Judd Trump has work to do here. He is 49 points behind with 51 on the table but he is going about his business with a steely determination and focus.

He is into the colours and now knocks in the blue. The pink and black are needed and he gets them. What a great clearance.

That is the world number one's first half century this evening.

It wasn't missable but he missed it. You can't comprehend Mark Allen missing a ball like that, especially to win the frame.

Mark Allen enjoys a run of 68 and then misses a mid-range red that also just happens to be frame ball.

What is going on this evening?

Judd Trump is really struggling to get good position. It is like he is fighting with the cue ball and he looks bemused as he breaks down on 19 points, missing by his standards, a fairly simple red to the left corner.
