Marin and the WD shouting all combined together is nothing for this kid. He has been shouting since the 1st match lol. I wonder how his throat hold up.
I pity that local guy sitting next the kid . Amazing patience level. My goodness. That kid makes noise in such a high decibel level, I could not imagine what will happen to that kid's voice .
When Indonesia struggles to get points, chinese taipei player is so generous to give him free point by wrong serve
Well, TPE will have been eliminated either way but i really would like the TPE player to have his moments. Instead Vito got two biggest moments in his career. Everyone deserves one.
He will have one day rest tomorrow. then come again full blooded on Friday lol. Dont think he ll be shouting UberCup as well.
So, INA is confirmed qualified for the QF, after beating TPE in 5 ties that lasted more than 5 hrs! What a moment for Shesar Hiren Rhustavito, taking the second set 21-18, despite trailing 1-8.
The long and winding road for INA Thomas team who spends 316 minutes of play to top group A. After Anthony Ginting delivers good start for INA, the Olympic Champs level up the score to book first ever victory over third ranked INA pair in very close battle for first two games when Alfian/Ardianto play quite effective, avoiding to lift up shuttlecock too much instead of fast interception blocking from front area that making TPE duo quite uncomfortable. At deciding game, Lee/Wang are on their element, bounce back quickly to bombard with explosive shots. Jonatan Christie rectifies his setbacks to perform much better to vanquish the off color Wang Tzu Wei who looks sluggish throughout the match. INA mix-and-match combination almost spring suprise against the aggressive Lu CY/Yang PH, so close from the start to the ending as both pairs traded point regularly, luck factor come together to decide the victor at the end. Last match is arrived to determine the winner of this engaging tie, contain interesting turnaround and thrilling atmosphere till the end. Shesar Hiren Rhustavito once again did his job as last man standing to save INA team from defeat. The experienced Indonesian outlasts unheralded Chi Yu Jen who doesn't representing world #146 quality based on his technical skill, strong defense, delicate net play. The Taiwanese has 8-1 lead then lost the momentum immediately whilst Vito also experienced similar situation, 11-6 in third game then Chi YJ catching up gradually and forcing intense moment at final points, his flick serve at critical circumstances certainly contributing painful defeat for TPE team. Hard fate for TPE team who's one the potential contender prior to this prestigious event, their blunder strategy against THA paving the way for premature exit here.
The TPE Chi YJ and INA S H Rhustavito match was a battle of nerves, it boiled down to “Victory Goes to the player who makes the next to last mistake”, to quote Chessmaster Savielly Tartakower.
