Iran Press/ Europe: Northern Irishman Allen – who came through a tense quarter-final showdown against Ronnie O’Sullivan on Thursday – opened with a century break of 102 and maintained his momentum to go into the interval 4-0 ahead.
Trump, world champion in 2019, looked to regroup for the second session, but Allen produced another run of 66 to move to within a frame of victory.
