But then now it is the junior who win over them today and will be playing in the semi finals tomorrow.
Anything can happen I feel with these two semis. Malaysia pair are unpredictable. They can beat anyone randomly these days. Don't write the Russians off too - most of their losses against top pairs are in three sets. This might be their time.
Cos they all suck except ZN/FHF but even FHF is waaaaay past it now and ZN is very weak in attack and way slower than CY at the same age. CB/HW has been a total embarrassment, and CB shud just retire, we have had enough of his mediocrity for year now. Even back in the day CB/GZD and HW/SY did better than now. Dunno what the coaches are thinking pairing them together. LXL/QZH are total failures in their whole careers with the exception of 2-3 tournaments. QZH does not look look like badminton player at all for his love of eating pork bellies... LXL is a one trick pony as well and once opponents like LYD/HS figured out his game, there was nothing he could do.
Okay then we just wait and see for tomorrow match. But for your information the junior Malaysian pair have won over the Japanese MD before in all the matches they have played before together last time. Then LYD / YYS have never lose to the Russian MD before too. But just as you have said anything can happen tomorrow.
Even if they had won their match, their journey will end tomorrow. Their compatriots stands a better chance against the JPN pair who hasn't has any good result towards the end of any tournaments.
Exaggeration much? While I too am disappointed in their performances as well as their lack of consistency over the years, to say they their career have been a failure seems a tad harsh. They are competing with the Koreans, Japanese and Indonesians after all, which have some of the best teams MD have ever seen.
here is the explanation. In this tournament Fu HF / ZN lose to Japanese pair. But Chai Biao / Hong Wei lose to Malaysia MD. Then LXL / QZH lose to Russian MD.
