VICTOR CHINA Open 2019 : R/32 - FINAL (17-22 September)

Games involving China players all early as possible

 

Its an attacking game to win. See who attacks more.

 

Chen long beast mode ON

Classical chen long match

 

Cl need to attack to finish it. If game 3, then stamina problem.

 

Please recall that CL was in seemingly "bad form" and not really a gold medal favorite before proceeding to absolutely trash all opposition in Rio.

 

A Lesson for the world on its finest display that You Can never Write an Olympic and World Champion Off.

CL giving me Rio final vibes...whatever happens its a great form of CL that I have missed since Rio.

Welcome Back CL

 

Momota outfoxed Chen Long to take six points on the trot , 13-12

 

so if he win China Open and he is in good form early now, that's mean he won't win next year?

 

Last year after world championships. It is inevitable your form drops after reaching goals for a year (Japan Open, world championships).

 

Chen Long has a superb defence but he is also a powerful attacker, just not proactive enough. And sometimes when he is well in the lead, he tends to take his foot of the pedal

YASSS......thr most beautiful Badminton lady One of my most favs Former World no.1 WANG SHIXIAN is In the arena...Yasss....Thats all I needed to see..Miss you WANG.

 

Danger for momota.

 

Momota lifts are just too short way many today

 

Now or never for cl. If 3rd game, then tough.

 

Allnout attack. 3 points.

 

I'm sure Li Mao knows what to do for Chen Long, teach him to play to his strengths, esp seizing the initiative to attack

 

Has momota lost in 2 before? Cl in trouble now. Momota needs to move forward 3rd game with wind advantage.

 

Chen Long playing into KM's hands, it's obvious the latter is not going to lift if he can help it.

 

The more you rally with KM, the more you cede the advantage to him
