China Super Series 2007 - Day 5 (Nov 24) - Semifinals

[Krisna]

So far this is the most boring match. TPE trying their best but being outplayed by a long way. Great rally with both sides taking control until Markis intercepts and puts it away. INA 7-4

Kido-Hendra are not the reigning world champions for nothing... :cool:

[madbad]

I don't know what else the TPE coach can tell his charges... maybe at least try to get to double figures??:p

[Louisa]

This match is so anti-climax. Easy for INA.
anti-climax for us, too:D

[taufik-ist]

INA v MAS finals are always very fiery.

on court and off court are the same... very fiery.... :D :D

[Louisa]

Where XBall and Georgechongwei...LCW match going to start..
they r praying hard now:D

[Krisna]

I am going to sleep now... This match is too easy for Kido-Hendra...

[madbad]

TPE making a charge, down 8-11

[Misty100]

on court and off court are the same... very fiery.... :D :D

hahahaha, BUT you forgot that TH and LCW are best of pals, what fiery off court... LOL :D:D:D

[robin7]

BCL won over PJH..Congratulations BCL!

Now,The Kido/Hendra won the taiwanese pair who beat tazari/latiff 20-7 for the 1st set.Ok..tazari/latiff was kidding yesterday rite?

Too bad the KKK/TBH were also beaten at the first round,by the taiwanese..otherwise we can watch them playing together today..=(
Who's PJH? Park Joo Heong? :p

[shenron]

They are still considered as world no 3 (even though they had won WC) as FHF/CY and KKK/TBH are playing really badly lately. But, have to admit that
they are the most consistent men double pair at the moment.




Kido-Hendra are not the reigning world champions for nothing... :cool:

They have a chance in the final though.

[Misty100]

That Taipei player jump so damn high!

[madbad]

Violent smashing from TPE but INA reaches match point 20-15

[susy_forever]

[taufik-ist]

hahahaha, BUT you forgot that TH and LCW are best of pals, what fiery off court... LOL :D:D:D

Why dont you watch on SuperSport , 811? Much clearer. I dont get why RTM1 and Astro supersport are broadcasting the same thing. They should be broadcasting the matches on different courts.

[Tjun Tjun]

Fatigue showing in CJ's play.......17-16.....now 18-16 to LCW.........

[robin7]

LCW upped the gear a bit as he leads 18-16.

[madbad]

LCW is increasing the pace up 18-16

[madbad]

Good anticipation by CJ. LCW 18-17

[Tjun Tjun]

Back level 18-18...................

[jbchiong]

Superboy is doing great. I hope he doesn't lose his diaper. :D :D :D

[Han]

wow, what a match!!!
Chong Wei need to cut down the unforce errors and should be fine on game 2 as Chen Jin as shown some tireness in game 1. Keep it up Chong Wei!

[robin7]

A different player of LCW in the 1st game by playing long rallies.

LCW needs to change his gameplan in the 2nd game.

[Smichz]

Yea....CJ!!!Jia you!!!

[vching]

i am confident that Lee will come back... he has something in mind methinks...

[waile]

hmm....come on chong wei...u can do it...join ure gf in finals...

[spchu]

How come LCW is contented with just playing rally? and not kill the shuttle more?

[waile]

throw racquet?...nice tactic

[Louisa]

CJ jia you, common add oil............

[ah tat]

[shenron]

LCW better fight back in the 2nd game..or not he'll lose easily....

[waile]

How come LCW is contented with just playing rally? and not kill the shuttle more?

U uh..... Have faith in LCW....

[tohcsh]

[waile]

[madbad]

CJ takes off his diaper and puts on a green shirt. Much better. LCW sports a gaudy fluorescent green to counteract CJ's new outfit

[Tjun Tjun]

No more superman underwear.....that's better........

[PlayaFromMalaya]

there is sth wrong with LCW....the knee perhaps?

no no theres nothing wrong..just chen jin plays very well today

[Han]

Hard to imagine the energy consumes by these 2 players, will the 3rd set be even more exciting, best match of the day!

MIA i guess!


hey i'm here :D
cmon lcw..... win..win don't let china get all finals :D

[Han]

I do think Chong Wei still have an edge in rubber set as he is fitter between the two, the key is still the unforce error which is hard to control as this fast pace.

[koo_fan]

hey what happen to china's supporter.???
they seems passive .its nice to hear them shouting.although its for chen jin

[waile]

close close set.....come on LCW

[Tjun Tjun]

Aiyo from 3-0 to 3-3...............

[robin7]

Astro will stop live at 6pm to give way to ATP Challenger.

[waile]

hmm.... come LCW... u can do it...

[madbad]

Easy kill by CJ 6-5

[ctjcad]

..CJ needs to vary & mix his shots more, more drops and less lifts as LCW seems to be reading his shots and waiting for the high clears/pushes and do one of his cross-court smashes or drops (esp. the clears to LCW's forehand back corner)..A bit patient, i guess..:p

[madbad]

An attacking burst by LCW, up 7-6 noww

[waile]

2 point advantage... maintain it or widen it

[madbad]

Wild shot out by LCW 8-7
