Ouch, that's gotta hurt for Momota. 20-19 to Sasaki, championship point, and Momota plays a net shot that lands very clearly smack dab on the line but is ruled out, losing him the championship. He told the umpire as much after the call but nothing was done despite it being in full view of everyone. ^^; Oh well, too bad they didn't have hawkeye, would have liked a third game.
badrad: Regarding the commentators, they're ethusiastic indeed, but I feel they're quite restrained and unopiniated. When it comes to line calls they never seem to guess and never question or criticise the calls. Not as colourful as Gillian and Frost
Generally not particularly deep commentating either, though the female commentator shows a bit more insight. I've only seen a few of the matches so far though
Funny what they're saying about Akane though. The coach has apparently told the commentators that they don't really need to coach her because she's good at it herself, so they just help release the tension by joking around saying things like "those shoes are cool" and stuff and that's why we often see her smiling in the intervals.
