Michael van Gerwen has sent his opponent home with a bone-dry 4-0 for the second match in a row at the Darts World Cup. This time Stephen Bunting was no match for ‘The Green Machine’.
What was announced as a superior clash quickly turned into a one-man show by Van Gerwen. In the opening set, Bunting managed to keep pace by winning a decisive leg, but at the important moments there was nothing that could be done about the Dutchman who scored a 4-0-0 in no time and with his first match arrow. had put the final score on the board. In the quarter-finals, ‘MvG’ will face Scott Williams or Damon Heta on New Year’s Day.
“We all knew Bunting was playing very well up to this point. You have to show your best game when you face him. I don’t think I showed that today, but I did what I had to do at the right moments,” Van Gerwen said in an initial response to Sky Sports.
“I am happy with this performance. Although I have to spend New Year’s again without my children. I feel comfortable here and have a great environment, but I obviously miss my family. But that’s part of it now. I now have to focus on my next match on January 1 and no one will be able to take away my focus. Being able to end the year in this way gives you a good feeling as a player. Heta or Williams? I want to beat them both (laughs). No, I’m looking forward to it. One of them will be my first dessert of the new year,” says the ravishing Dutchman.
