Yamaguchi playing really good smashes. Choosing down the middle, down the line. RI can't get them back
Game plan for Thailand is to use all mean to stop Japan from winning before the fifth match. If they can do that, they win.
So I guess he wants to gamble to take a point from one of the doubles, because Japan has sort of equal strength there. Or maybe to take point from FukuHiro or TanaYone, not knowing who will play and at which TakaMatsu will play
AY take first point for JPN. I am afraid, even with the awesome home crowd support, it might be a task too tough for THA at this point.
