Yes, the Koreans are not that good today in defence. The Koreans defence are bad. Thus they lose easily to Malaysia XD. Kim Ha Na plays badly not like Goh Liu Ying still play well despite her knees being heavily strapped and her hands heavily strapped too. Kim Ha Na just lift and lift. No creative style of play.
Reony Mainaky declined the call by his younger brother, Rexy to head up the coaching of WD team. You can see how everything Japanese hang over him. Anyway, Eng Hiang is up to the challenge.
Thomas Cup Champions Japan Uber Cup runner up Sudirman Cup Either winner or runner up. Sure confirmation as the second best badminton nation in the world now?
Okay the Japanese have won as predicted. Korea really make a bad choice to let Ko Sung Hyun / Kim Ha Na play in the XD today but then Korea have no choice. They don't have any better XD players. Kim Ha Na is definitely the weak link.
So, today I am served with sake instead of soju Quite fresh to see a new face in the final, this is the very first final of Japanese team in Sudirman Cup
Kim Ha Na should just retire as she cannot improve. And then Ko Sung Hyun also falters under pressure. I must admit that Chang Ye Na / Shin Baek Cheol are better but then... the Korean coach wanted to reserve Chang Ye Na / Jung Kyung Eun to play in WD although she couldn't win today. Plus yesterday, in QF, the Japanese XD played badly vs the lower ranked Denmark XD. Hence the Korean coach made a huge mistake and let Ko Sung Hyun / Kim Ha Na play instead.
how can they be team B players. they were playing like A* !! will they get promoted to A after this? love to watch them more often for super series
