what bravery shown by the malaysian team, as a malaysian...I can say I'm really really proud, something to be proud of after a long time of having nothing to be happy about =D
Woo-hoo, well done, MAS, Hoo/Cheah ! Well, on paper, the INA XD pair, Jordan/Oktavianti, is definitely the stronger of the the two but this is the World Team Championships where "who's got the nerves" have to be factored in as one of the determinants.
Man. What a wasted effort by INA of tireless Greysia/Rahayu & Gregoria’s effort to lose to MAS to unknown XD in the end. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Why? Won big in 2nd set should have given them the confident boost dammit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
well done Malaysia, amazing match to finish the day, that 3rd set was yes shaky from both pairs, but more determined team becomes a winner, amazing attitude and motivation, Japan will be definitely a more difficult hurdle....
They made too many errors. Also Melati was not able to defend. Definitely nerves. But great show by the Malaysian team. They could have won WS and WD also.
After the few rally exchange after mid game, the INA pairs seemed shocked with their opponent. Both pairs shown nerves but the young pair wanted more. Well done MAS.
Melati was the slower of the two girls. INA had one tactic to set up big smash for Jordan. Wjen things didnt go their way no plan B. Melati overhead shot was capitalised by the MAS a few times when she wanted to move forward.
It was the last few points in the 2nd set that gave the MAS pair some confident back and they started 3rd game better.
Disappointing lucksture performance from the 2. No more sparks and magic, Kevin's taunting stunt has came back to haunt him more than ever.
