    I think for the Chinese and the Chinese diaspora all over the world it's very much "whoever plays Japan" is supported.

    they're so tense until the last point there, they could be more cheerful, enjoying the game, I guess

    Zhang Nan is going to play CHN pairs in both of his matches today. It's going to be tough for him

    @kurako when I googled Kei Nakajima for spelling purposes, I realized he's Chinese. So apart from the young MS coach, the entire coaching team of the Japanase A-Team are "foreigners". Korea HC and WS, Indonesia MD, China WD, Malaysia XD. I think they should kick Nakanishi (?) out, hire a Dane and be the rainbow team. :D

    I think the Chinese spectators are pretty upseting I never hear them cheering for INA,JPN,IND,MAS,DEN or any other players or teams if they are playin against chinese players and they for sure hate Japnese players for sure cause no happiness sounds in the arena when Japan wins.:(

    I love INA and THAI crowds they cheer for not only their players but all the players...I love how accepting and adopting INA n THAI crowd is.❤

    Though I always support players who are good be it chinese,Indian,Malaysian,Japanese etc

    Trivia:
    - As MatsuNaga reaches the final, this is the first time that there's all-Japanese final in Women's Doubles WC.
    - The last time that the same country won gold, silver, bronze in WD was China in 2010 (Du Jing/Yu Yang (gold), Ma Jin/Wang Xiaoli (silver), Cheng Shu/Zhao Yunlei (bronze))

    Hahaha have you heard them cheering for SYQ when he played LD?
    It's not about just the nationality.

    Imagine Japan getting 4 titles. There will be huge uproar and they are favourites too except in MD.
