[jamesd20]

Stunning smash from LCW....he really needs to take initiative...

16-9

LD Smash and kill and Zero emotion like Kwun says LD just get onwith it and LD is not going to lose this

 

[extremenanopowe]

LCW got steam rolled 1st set. LYB happy and crying... hehe.

 

[samuel882]

payback time for LD for wat LCW did to thim during TC final.. Exactly a reverse

 

[Baderz_Jas]

19-10! 20-10! I have a feeling LCW will win the 2nd set though.

 

[kwun]

LD rush into net and kill loose smash return 17-10

 

[trlp.]

in less thann 17 minutes, Lin Dan has game point!
what a beast! LCW needs to strengthen his nerve up or he's gonna lose this match too easily

 

[extremenanopowe]

well Lindan for winning the 1st game... wow... awesome....!!!

 

[vivian87_cty]

jia you LCW!!! Dont give up!!!

 

[Wong8Egg]

LD just play proper badminton, gentleman sprtsmanship.......I have never seen LD like this, so focussed and controlled of himself. LCW not prepared for this...

16-8

Agree. Never see LD this focus and determine.

 

[kwun]

LD very determined and focused.

LCW on the other hand seems nervous and making many many errors.

19-10.

no way for LCW to win the first game.

 

[huangkwokhau]

XXF is surrounded with young girls..........

 

[jamesd20]

Forget all of LD show off, arrogance, shouting, abusing line judges. Watch the control of his emotions, the focus on this game and we see a different LD altogether.

20-12 LD

 

[kwun]

LD smash cross court and kisses teh line.

 

[DoublesPlayer]

come on LCW ... fight ... cut down the errors

 

[trlp.]

and LINDAN WINS THE FIRST SET WITH A SMASH UP AT THE NET!

 

[madbad]

The difference is LD's speed and he is making a lot less mistakes than LCW.

 

[justin2net]

LD fighting for XXF; I can feel it.

 

[nellute]

sigh sigh.

LCW. Come on

 

[abedeng]

LD wins 21-12, took more initiative and was sharper overall. LCW missing his usual touches.
