2016 Rio Olympic Games : Day-9 (19th August) - WS & MD Gold Medal, WS Bronze Medal, MS Semifinals

Nah you can said similar things when Lin Dan won narrowly in 2012. LCW stupid mistakes due to nervousness. This time we see a different LCW. Much tougher even if he is quite nervous in Game 1 and Game 3 when the score is 19:16

 

Wrong. He IS still Super Dan.

 

Nor has there been for 4 years

 

I thought beating LD is winning gold medal. Times has changed.

 

LD is a true champion. He again saved that point at coming back from rear court. No else player would have done that.

 

Lin Dan's job is to make sure of a China gold medal ...by either creatiing an all china final or at least he get to the final...VA is way less scary than Chong Wei

 

but he failed.. now its all on Chen Long

Eagle, now I know why LCW tends to underachieve ...... because you didn't dare to see the most critical points ..... wakakakaka.

 

Axelsen realises this may be his best chance to win Gold! Chen Long better be at his best.

 

You're reading it too negatively, I'm being genuine when I express my disappointment, my utmost respect for both players never in question from what I've been saying about them all along.

 

3rd game was nerves all the way

 

Too wide from CL, 4-4

 

Yup, since LOG'12.

 

oh yes, i have been following your posts religiously. half the ppl in this forum sign up just so we can read your posts... thank you for writing those wonderful posts...

 

So what are LCWs chances against either CL or VA? Can he beat both of them? I would assume so?

 

Lin Dan will always be considered a legend of the game. How many years will it be before we see someone like Lin Dan again, 10... 100.

 

Lucky net cord, 5-5
