Hans-Kristian Vittinghus' form may be off and Lee Dong Keun may have improved over the 2 years, but Lee is still not in the same class as a former top 10 players... As long as LDK plays his usual slow retiree badminton, HKV can make his experience count by reading his game and countering it -- so the question is whether LDK or HKV will be the one who can keep going in the 3rd game...
Really, what is Misbun thinking!! Same tactic from G1 until G3! Won't be long before the people get sick.
8-6 for France!!!! meanwhile LDK 2-2 Vittinghus aftre LDK won 2nd game JC has grab a point for INA against LZJ
Where's the throat cutting gestures now, LZJ? Oh right, you're still not good, almost forgot Haha, what a one-sided G3...and the expected result in the end
I will post my tomorrow complaint today then: I wish JPN had facilitated Kenichi Tago better so he was fit and on the team and could play MS 2.
Lee Zii Jia still has just one game-play "mode" like Leong Junhao (or Jonatan Christie when he first start the senior circuit) -- they need to be developed into more complete/versatile players to have more than a "one-off" win against this or that opponent.
Nah. I simply find it funny that he tried to be badass with that gesture, yet utterly failed to deliver the very next day. Why would I hate a (yet) completely insignificant player? You can barely watch him if you want, I only dislike (not hate) players that are very visible with super bad manners, what he did wasn't even remotely bad enough, and also a one-off thing afaik. Players like KSS and Marin, who show bad manners and annoying habits consistently....those are a different story Or the BoMo pair of old (2010-2012)
Woah, cool it, Vittinghus -- remember how you controlled yourself and didn't start celebrating until you had won the Thomas Cup... EDIT: see what I mean -- service fault immediately after you celebrated! Shades of Lee Dong Keun vs Lin Dan in the last Thomas Cup -- Lee is ready to push his body until he hurts himself...
62 shot rally! Guess I was right about rallying skills being key... Hope FRA takes the lesson that experience really counts when all things are about even -- Watanabe/Hiroyuki just had more/ bigger match experience; in fact, it's more accurate to say Hiroyuki Endo defeated Ronan Labar at this match-up...
LOL, Vittinghus definitely show-boating and trying to do a "demonstration class" last winning shot -- cut it out, even if you're defending Thomas Cup Champions... He probably "prepared" this new celebration in his mind even before the game, hahaha!
Now that's biased . And how could you compare KSS with Marin and the others? Kevin is just a 7 year old kid , Marin is over 20 and Boe/Mo are over 30.
