TOTAL BWF World Championships 2019 : SEMIFINAL & FINAL (24-25 August)

Huang/Zheng actually have a one sided head to head against the thais. They lead it 7-1 and have also won the pairs last meeting. But if dechapol and sapsiree plays anything like what they did today we are in for a treat surely.

 

H2H are one sided but their matches often last in tight three game matches.
It will be interesting to see if THA pair can play like this too tomorrow.

 

Kobayashi's smashing game has been increasing by a great rate since the last few tournaments.

 

Both look tense..

11 minutes for G1 interval is a while.

 

It doesn't look good at all for Li/Liu.
If JPN takes G1, it's all over for CHN.

 

Kobayashi hits like a truck, very steep and fast.

 

Hoki/kobayashi are so fun to watch

 

It's gonna be a bad day for Li/Liu.
I can smell it.

 

Liu yuchen need to step up

 

JPN takes G1 and an upset is already half way in the making.

 

HokiKoba G1

Too many errors from Liu Yuchen who is usually reliable.

Cant even see the shuttle from Kobayashi.
Surely LiLiu still more powerful ?!

 

Agree. He acts like HDP, so ineffective on the front.

 

Getting into Li now as well

 

Li/liu having a nightmare

 

What a defense by li junhui, out of nowhere.

 

Absolutely nothing they can do for now.

 

Can hardly believe what im seeing.

9 points in a row is worst than fajri..

weight of being defending champ or because what happened today?

 

Now they're playing much more aggresively

 

I think the pressure of defending champion is taking its toll already.

 

Only 5 points deficit now, can they comeback ?
