I think the logic is LYD does not trust LXL/QZH or HW/CB. He wants FHF/ZN but does not want to risk ZN lose the stamina in the XD in case they lose MD.
unfortunately i have a team tournament of my own to play early tomorrow morning and i will mostly likely miss most of the action.
its weekend and not surprised many would be out playing badminton. I should be able to watch the MD match before heading to the courts for a friendly session with my buddies.
because china are pretty sure they can win the other games and don't want to exhaust Zhang Nan. It's pretty devastating as their best MD and WD combination (ZN+FHF and ZYL+TQ) have their best XD combination.
Funny the commentator at the Jo vs Hsu match said that he talked to Jo and Jo said he had a dream of beating Chen Long, and the other commentator said he thinks Chen Long is dreaming that too, which he corrected as a nightmare. Really hope the dream come true and CL have his usual blip
China to win 3-1 or 3-2, Fu n Cai unlikely to win n women's double I reckon 50-50. China shud take the 2 singles and mix doubles in straight sets. Korea to win 3-0 or 3-2, LYD/YYS to win easily, Sung JY H-H vs Nozomi 3-1 but lost last encounter (very close call and if Sung win Korea can win 3-0), Son has the edge over Momota 3-0 H-H, Women's double Japan shud take the point, Mix double Korea expected to win but cannot rule out Kim Ha Na cracking under pressure.
I'm really taken aback, Cai Yun/Fu Haifeng?! Whoever comes out with this lineup is either brilliant or reckless, we'll know the answer soon. In a team championship,the order of play and lineup as well as the added pressure or underdog mentality whichever is the case can make or break the respective teams.
5 minutes before the event started, can't seem to find any live stream websites. Will there no live streaming for the semi and finals? D:
