Don't you mean against Hafiz?

Yeah I'm looking forward to an all Malaysian affairs in MS final.. :D
It is even better to have 3 Malaysians in the semifinal..:eek:

It's very very likely. Chen Jin is still young and Chong Wei should beat him. Hafiz is on a roll right now and he should have little problem reaching the final. Hafiz vs Chong Wei will be a good final.

For men's doubles, I hope Paaske/Rasmussen can win the title....consider it their farewell title before they split up.

Why are they splitting? They are still young and surely good enough for another 4 years.

Chen running close, 5-6.

Dicky leading 10-9.

Niels leading 3-1.

Does not look good for Malaysia.
Our challenge for XD and WS has ended.
Now all our MS are struggling.

If all 3 MS players knock-out in QF, it will be a major embarassment for Misbun.

the live scoring is blowing me away
seeing 3 MAS players at one time is too much

hafix won second game...
lcw 12:12..come on guy...don't be kampung champion

Niels on fire, 8-1.

Hafiz takes 2nd game 15-10.

LCW levels, 12-12.

Chen still close, 7-8.

Li Mao is in charge for the 3 amigos from Malaysia, not Misbun. It's not over yet as Haifz just won game 2 and Chong Wei is leading 14-12 and Chonn Hann is leading 8-7

GO MALAYSIA!!!!! MAS players coming back!

YESSS!!!! LCW won!!!

LCW wins 1st set, 15-12.

Li Mao is in charge for the 3 amigos from Malaysia, not Misbun. It's not over yet as Haifz just won game 2 and Chong Wei is leading 14-12 and Chonn Hann is leading 8-7

I made a mistake.
Yes, LCW and WCH are under Li Mao.
But not Hafiz. Remember, he swore before that he will not train under any other coach than Misbun (statement made during Li Mao's appointment early this year).

chetan anand memang got potential.

WCH - CJ battle is nail biting! 9-9 now

hafiz seems to have slowed down a bit

Chetan closing in 7-9, WCH cannot finish off Chen.

Choon Hann has yet to prove he can win long matches from the past so I think we can look forward for Chong Wei vs Chen Jin in Semi which is more interesting than MAS vs MAS.
Misbun is on leave due to family emergency so for this Europe trip, Li Mao is in charge for MS.
