G3: China 16 - 19 Indonesia... 2 points away to seal the match #1 16-20...one point away for INA to seal the M1 16-21 --> INA takes the 1st match
INA-CHN, 1-0. Towi/Liliyana played brilliantly despite trailing 5-11 at decider to beat Xu Chen/Ma Jin, 21-18 / 14-21 / 21-16.
Good game by both pairs. Now I need to get back to work... not good for my productivity and my heart as well CL should win this but hopefully Tommy will give him abit of trouble.
china 0 - indonesia 1!! XD seems to be china's weakest link.. having said that, its not 'that' weak also as they have 2top pairs in the world. If china has weak XD, I dont know what to say about other country's XD. Ofcourse, except Denmark, Indonesia and perhaps Malaysia??
What an amazing comeback from Tontowi Ahmad/Liliyana Natsir! The pep talk during the interval by Richard Mainaky must had invigorated the INA pair as they came back strongly, despite trailing 5-11 at the interval of the rubber-set to take the match 21-16! The CHN pair looked shocked and simply had no answer when Owi/Butet were on-song with their attacks! They did not know what had hit them! Li Yongbo's face was very black when he was on the screen!
i thought around the 1st half of the 3rd game the Chinese will cruise to the end. but not so. nice comeback.
