He he. I want to watch a great fight.

[shyeling]

WCH wins 21-18. Malaysia beat Japan 3-0. Friday, meet China.Malaysia Boleh!
meet china, what u all think?:confused::confused:

[vching]

meet china, what u all think?:confused::confused:

we are so going to own.

and i am so going to be owned if I don't immediately take off to my next lecture.

tata people!

see you later tonight!

[Jessica]

Sigh..I agree that the commentator on Astro was really bad and boring.He often mess up with the scoreline and keep repeating the same tune everyday.I miss Gillian Clark or Hasbullah Awang..

[V3i HoN6]

I am planning for a half day leave on Friday, afternoon.

He he. I want to watch a great fight.
Me a full day leave.
Any great place to watch and cheer together?

[Noridayu]

meet china, what u all think?:confused::confused:

If Malaysia players committed to win, I believed that they will give China a good run for final. 50-50 chances for both team.

[Jessica]

meet china, what u all think?:confused::confused:
Hmm..But my father was happy that Malaysia meet China on Friday instead of Korea or Indonesia..:rolleyes::rolleyes:..

[badboypedi]

so now lets cheer for the last left match ger-den :)
i hope germany can take this double to advance to the semis :)
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO XU, GOOOOOOOOOOO BIRGIT!!!!

[Weily]

meet china, what u all think?:confused::confused:

no chance for WCH and HH. our only hope is LCW and whatever 2 pairs. my thought is 20% against 80%

[soleha]

congratulation malaysia thomas cup team!! hope the same 4the uber...

[stork]

meet china, what u all think?:confused::confused:

mas will loose 1st, 2nd and 3rd single. LCW is the key for MAS in my opinion...

[madbad]

DEN lead 11-9 at the break

[stork]

so now lets cheer for the last left match ger-den :)
i hope germany can take this double to advance to the semis :)
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO XU, GOOOOOOOOOOO BIRGIT!!!!

I cheer for DK because of my PAW :p

[waile]

now, eagerly waiting for uber cup matches... yay...

[madbad]

DEN coming on strong 15-11 but GER making a move 15-13

[lipans]

mas will loose 1st, 2nd and 3rd single. LCW is the key for MAS in my opinion...

LCW agains LD... sure lindan is slightly better. I dont think he can deliver a point to MAS. I will give chance 45-55 chance in favour to LD.

The most crucial is MD1. If CTF/LWW(or maybe CTF/KKK) manage to beat CY/FHF, then MAS still has a little chance through HH. HH vs CJ is 50-50.

[jasonmarc]

DEN coming on strong 15-11 but GER making a move 15-13

Auf Geth.....GERMAN...:D:D

[nellute]

Me a full day leave.

Ha ha. Surely like to have fun together.

BTW, I am not in Malaysia at the moment.

[lipans]

me to..... half day on friday.

[madbad]

DEN stays alive, wins 21-16. 1 game all

[Jessica]

Well,I really worry about WCH when he up against BCL on Friday.He was not in form in this Thomas Cup.

[stork]

LCW agains LD... sure lindan is slightly better. I dont think he can deliver a point to MAS. I will give chance 45-55 chance in favour to LD.

The most crucial is MD1. If CTF/LWW(or maybe CTF/KKK) manage to beat CY/FHF, then MAS still has a little chance through HH. HH vs CJ is 50-50.

you have a lot of faith in HH :eek: in my opinion he has a chance of maybe 10 percent or less, Chenjin has to be injured or something... CJ is always bored playing against HH.

Why isn´t his older brother playing 3rd singles?

[nellute]

LCW agains LD... sure lindan is slightly better. I dont think he can deliver a point to MAS. I will give chance 45-55 chance in favour to LD.

The most crucial is MD1. If CTF/LWW(or maybe CTF/KKK) manage to beat CY/FHF, then MAS still has a little chance through HH. HH vs CJ is 50-50.

Agreed that the chance for LCW is slim. He has to play an extraordinarily game to demolish the great wall.

I have not much confidence on HH either. CJ is very consistent lately.

WCH is aging.

Argh ... I am pessimistic.

Yay,M'sia cruises into semi-final! and meeting China...hmm,YKH said to the press b4 this:"we will make sure LYB eats his own word if we meet them.":D:p

[leonardklh]

malaysia rockss.. the men team have done now it's time for the women.... malaysia BOLEH!!!!!!!

[badboypedi]

yihaaaaaaaa, birgit an xu rock the danish house xD

[nellute]

Hmm..But my father was happy that Malaysia meet China on Friday instead of Korea or Indonesia..:rolleyes::rolleyes:..

Is your father supporting MAS or CHN ?

[Weily]

If LCW took the 1st point of MAS, the game is just begun!!! if LCW failed. MAS still has a chance to lose 2:3 to China. i am sure you know what i mean.

[nellute]

Yay,M'sia cruises into semi-final! and meeting China...hmm,YKH said to the press b4 this:"we will make sure LYB eats his own word if we meet them.":D:p

[Jessica]

Of course Mas..He just think Mas can beat China..:rolleyes:Hopefully he is right..

[limsy]

hmm...in a positive way...malaysia will win...beside of md...
lcw- lin dan...3 set to decide...hmm...but i think lcw opponent give him a good warming up before meeting lin dan but lin dan just played boonsak(that good for training)...so...it will be a 51-49 to lcw...

wch-bcl...the lowest chance to score in malaysia team...it a 40 - 60 match...if he can play tacticly against bcl like against lin dan in china master(or open i forget) final 1st set that losing 19-21...he got the chance for 45-55

hh-cj...as i think...hh will take this if malaysia down to 2-2...not count for cj experience...hh is in form...very got indeed...but still got many people look down on him...even indra gunawan praise him(in star)...from seeing him can smash his opponent...he had the weapon to bring cj down...but...have to increase his agility and accurate...if agility and accurate is high enough...hh 55-cj 45...

md...malaysia will win...no matter who are up to play...i saw many are not confident with ours player...hmm...

if negatively...malaysia will down 3-0...

of ya...madbad...i mean lydia yesterday that are playing 3rd single and the one whom height 176...but i cant correct it because my network having problem after my post...^^

[limsy]

What did LYB say ?

lyb say:malaysia is the weakest among the best five...and not consider malaysia as contender of TC...if i am not mistaken...

[wynn000]

why indonesia fan so hate Msia team. I read the newspaper said that it was an argued between HH, TBH, Zakry.. and Indonesia fans when msia women team vs Japan

[madbad]

DEN making a charge 11-14

[pauline]

What did LYB say ?
something like this year's Thomas Cup is an easy task for them, and other countries are no where near them.....
well,now it's either LYB or YKH will eat their own words..:o

[Jessica]

why indonesia fan so hate Msia team. I read the newspaper said that it was an argued between HH, TBH, Zakry.. and Indonesia fans when msia women team vs Japan
What do you mean???I don't understand..:confused:

[madbad]

GER almost there, unless DEN can make one final push 17-13

[mmooww]

i prefer germany team to enter semi.

[Jessica]

Hmm..Suprisingly, Korea women team also split up their first double LHJ/LKW but pair up LHJ/KMJ and LKW/HJE while Malaysia still the same lineup with yesterday..

[madbad]

GER 18-14 DEN... oh my PAW :crying::crying:

[Misty100]

What do you mean???I don't understand..:confused:

Yeah, I don't understand that too. Kindly use simple English. Thanks

[badboypedi]

YESSSSSSSSS, THEY DID IT =)
winning the 3rd setr 21-16

[ganugooner]

German won against the Danes in UC QF...what a suprise

[madbad]

All matches in the early session were won by 3-0

[felix929]

so now we predict whos gonna win
korea or denmark?

[demolidor]

Deutschland 3, Danmark 0

Suprise?!? What surprise :p?

that was the revenge from european team championships semis where germany lost 1-3 ;)

Deutschland 3, Danmark 0

Suprise?!? What surprise :p?
hahahahaha,it's three to nil!

[mmooww]

Xu huai wen, the best player..!!
haha

[madbad]

UC: KOR v MAS
1 WS1 Hye Youn Hwang - Mew Choo Wong
2 WD1 Hyo Jung Lee/Min Jung Kim - Pek Siah Lim/Pei Tty Wong
3 WS2 Yun Hwa Lee - Wong Pei Xian Julia
4 WD2 Kyung Won Lee/Jung Eun Ha - Eei Hui Chin/Hui Lin Ng
5 WS3 Youn Joo Bae - Cheah Li Ya Lydia

KOR has split their top pair Lee/Lee up. Smart play to strengthen their WD2. Very tough for MAS to win if WMC doesn't take the opening match.

[cxytdn]

Xu Huaiwen: 1.5 out of 3 for GER

[modious]

TC: KOR v DEN
1 MS1 Sung Hwan Park - Kenneth Jonassen
2 MD1 Jae Sung Jung/Yong Dae Lee - Lars Paaske/Jonas Rasmussen
3 MS2 Hyun Ii Lee - Peter Gade
4 MD2 Jae Jin Lee/Ji Man Hwang - Mathias Boe/Carsten Mogensen
5 MS3 Seung Mo Shon - Joachim Persson

Finally, no surprises from the KOR side

Hmmm..... Jens Eriksen and Martin Lungaard Hansen not playing? :eek:

[Misty100]

LOL,TBH ,Hafiz and Zakry,good thing they are patriotic,but shouldn't react like that la...


You shouldn't believe everything you read in the newspaper. Things are usually overly hyped. I think the boys knows better than to over react.

Sad to say, Malaysian always support Indonesian players when they are playing in Malaysia, esp. Taufik Hidayat.

I give Bae Youn Joo a slight edge over Lydia Cheah. MAS must win both singles because even with the 2 Lees split for KOR, I think they will still take both doubles.

[AlanY]

Surprised semifinalist - Germany! Germany beat Denmark Women's team 3:0
that's the problem when your top single expected but didn't delivered the first point. watch out LCW, also LD for tomorrow.

hmm...ok...let see if lydia give her smashing to bae youn joo and win it...to me...lydia are better than julia...

wmc is rally80+smash20 player...
julia...if in aggresive form,50rally-50 smash,passive form,85rally-15smash
lydia is just better(to julia i mean,not wmc)...30rally and 70smash(or even more greater)

if julia vs lydia..it will be lydia to win...

julia...if in aggresive form,50rally-50 smash,passive form,85rally-15smash
lydia is just better(to julia i mean,not wmc)...30rally and 70smash(or even more greater)

if julia vs lydia..it will be lydia to win...

Lydia is quite inexperienced and to have the weight of a nation on her shoulders could be her undoing. Remember what happened to Kuan in the last TC when the whole of MAS depended on him. Why? Lack of experience

[limsy]

That really makes me flamed.

nothing needed to do...lyb are now the lowest image head coach and at his back was kim jong-soo...:D

[AlanY]

i will change my nickname to be "englishman" if ENG can steal 2 points :D
i dont believe indonesia is that much better than korea, we crushed them 4-1, didn't we?

[nellute]

that's the problem when your top single expected but didn't delivered the first point. watch out LCW, also LD for tomorrow.

very true indeed.

I came back to find out Msia TC team already beat Japan 3-0. Nvm, cheer for our gals, they have tough match against Korea later on.

And surprise, surprise, Denmark Uber team lost to Germany. After all the hard work to beat Msia, lost pulak. Anyway, congrats to German gals & the German BC member, you can cheer for your countrywoman tomm.

yes and no, as that works both ways. inexperience can also means no fear. it's really depends on the individual.

i dont believe indonesia is that much better than korea, we crushed them 4-1, didn't we?

It is a known fact that Korea threw that match away. Worse still, that one match which England lost to Korea...... that was just a scratch paring!

Badminton: Blame it on the format, says Korean manager

SOUTH Korea made a total mockery of the Badminton World Federation's (BWF) competition format for the Thomas Cup Finals by openly declaring that their best path to the final is by losing all their group matches.
The new format, allowing all 16 teams to move into the knockout phase, was introduced at the 2004 Finals, also in Jakarta.
Yesterday morning, the Koreans fielded their singles players in the doubles and their doubles specialists in the singles to lose 1-4 to England in their opening Group B tie.
Immediately after the defeat, team manager Kim Jong-soo admitted that they had also plotted to throw away their final group tie against Malaysia last night. The Koreans also lost 1-4.
The reason: South Korea wanted to finish bottom of the three-team group to go into the same quarter of the knockout draw with Denmark.
http://thestar.com.my/archives/2008/5/13/sports/s_pg66kim.jpg The Korean team manager Kim Jong-soo admitted that the team had deliberately lost to England and Malaysia to increase their chances of reaching the final.
If they had beaten both England and Malaysia to top the group, South Korea will go into the same half of the draw as defending champions China.
If they had beaten England but lost to Malaysia and finish second, they go into the same quarter as hosts Indonesia.
South Korea have yet to feature in the Thomas Cup final.
“It was not a late decision. We had discussed all options and settled on finishing last in the group, even before arriving in Jakarta,” said Jong-soo.
“After studying the draw and analysing our strengths and weaknesses, it was best for us to play against Denmark in the quarters, Indonesia in the semis and China in the final. We had to adopt the best strategy to maximise our chances of winning the Cup.”

i dont believe indonesia is that much better than korea, we crushed them 4-1, didn't we?

yyeeaahh, you did. :cool: i see a very slim chance you could be lucky and the INAS play very loose expecting the teammates to collect the points (like Taufik did against Thailand)

[AlanY]

errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.......................... ..:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleye s:
glad that someone got it!

[jasonmarc]

lyb say:malaysia is the weakest among the best five...and not consider malaysia as contender of TC...if i am not mistaken...

And now...MAS is in top 4.....surely not the weaker in top 5.....:D:D:D

LYB has eat his own words...

[limsy]

Lydia is quite inexperienced and to have the weight of a nation on her shoulders could be her undoing. Remember what happened to Kuan in the last TC when the whole of MAS depended on him. Why? Lack of experience

ya...lydia is inexperience i admit...but she EXPERIENCE in sea games when she lost to ina(correct me if i recall wrongly) when the tie goes to 2-2 in semis...but she say she will make up her defeat in sea games and deliver the important point...how was bae youn joo experience compare to lydia???(i ask because i not sure if my recall are correct for bae youn joo)...she are also just 17 if i am not mistaken...

[eaglehelang]

yes and no, as that works both ways. inexperience can also means no fear. it's really depends on the individual.

Lydia Cheah has had that experience in SEA Games 2007 team event I think. Nerves caused her to lose when it was 2-2. So, she has had the experience of shouldering the burden, so to speak. Hopefully Lydia will be able to keep her cool if comes down to the wire.

For Msia Uber team, 6 out of 10 are youngsters (include Julia Wong), Msia will play as underdog, less pressure compared to TC team. Higher expectations on the men.

Limsy, Lydia Cheah is 19. The reserve WS, Tee JY is 17. NHL, Khe Wei are also 19. Sabrina Chong & Julia are 21.

[sophiaJ]

bae youn joo is world junior championship 2007 1st runner up

[limsy]

i dont believe indonesia is that much better than korea, we crushed them 4-1, didn't we?

wow...dont cheated by korea...even malaysia will lost to korea if korea plays real...even nigerian can win them if they want to lost...hmm...so...what we see are not always real...we need to think more than twice when we saw some thing that out of expectation...

[badMania]

Good to see the INA gals winning over a severely weakened HKG team 3-0, with Maria Kristin beating Yip Pui Yin in the only tight match of the day, 21-19, 21-19. This bodes well for Maria, facing Xu Huaiwen tomorrow.

The other 2 matches were one-sided, with Vita Marissa/Lilyana Natsir thrashing Louissa Koon Wai Chee/Chau Hoi Wah 21-14, 21-4 and Adriyanti Firdasari making light work of the inexperienced Mong Kwan Yi 21-7, 21-9.

Tomorrow's SF matchups are definitely going to be tougher, especially GER has 2 strong WS. It's imperative that Firda and Pia need to win their matches, besides the 2 WDs. I still think INA can beat GER, 3-1 or 3-2.

[AlanY]

And now...MAS is in top 4.....surely not the weaker in top 5.....:D:D:D

LYB has eat his own words...
being in the SF of a tournament doesnt necessary mean you're the top 4. otherwise what is the point to have the ranking system for the duration of 12 months. similarly, winning a tournament (even the OG) doesnt make you the best in the world. it is just that you won it and you probably played better against your opponents this time. that's all.

[limsy]

Limsy, Lydia Cheah is 19. The reserve WS, Tee JY is 17. NHL, Khe Wei are also 19. Sabrina Chong & Julia are 21.

yes...kak...i know very well about malaysia women departure...beside sabrina,all of them are my friend...but i more closer with lydia...the other,not so... hmm...did u mistake my word???...

[jasonmarc]

i'll say 3-2 either way!

NO,....easily INA 3 - 0 ENG :D

[badMania]

Thomas Cup QF: ENG vs INA
MS1: Andrew Smith vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro -- the only real contest we might have in Sony vs Andrew. Sony to win!

MD1: Robert Adcock/Robin Middleton vs Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan -- the World Champion to beat the ENG pair for the third time this year.

MS2: Rajiv Ouseph vs Taufik Hidayat -- it might gets to 3 set if Taufik decides to have some more time in the court.

3-0 to INA if the 2 singles play to their potential.

MD2: Christopher Langridge/Dean George vs Hendra A. Gunawan/Joko Riyadi -- still can't see AG/Joko losing here.

MS3: Ben Beckman vs Simon Santoso -- Simon has been steady so far and he might not even have a chance to play today.

[badylife]

surprise that korea split their top wd. means that both will be unfamiliar with each other's opponent.hmm. hope wpt/lps can play better than yesterday.need to be more agressive and reduce errors. WMC must win her match to give MAs an edge and confidence.if i am not mistaken WMC lost to Hwang in AE rite? time for revenge.LOL. hard task for MAS uber but not impossible. MAS boleh

[jasonmarc]

hmm...i surprisely saw the poll result in badzine about who will win thomas cup,and it was malaysia with 232 vote,43.%
china 166 vote,31.1%
the it was ina,korea and the last,denmark

that 43% are all from MAS die hard fans.......:D:D

[Erwin Kyoto]

i dont believe indonesia is that much better than korea, we crushed them 4-1, didn't we?

hahaha....really funny:D.....the match stopped if 3-1 not 4-1....u overconfidence dude...wow...:eek::eek::eek: it means England will take point at least from Olympic Champ and MD World Champ...hohohohoho:D:D:D

[eaglehelang]

yes...kak...i know very well about malaysia women departure...beside sabrina,all of them are my friend...but i more closer with lydia...the other,not so... hmm...did u mistake my word???...

Ohhhh, now I get it. I thought you mean Lydia is 17, you were refering to the Korean girl. So, you're the one who's a friend of Lydia, I remember someone got say but forgot who.

agree..i dont think germany are top 4 in women departure...and ina will lift up their status(i mean semi finalist) in 2 years time...next time...they will be great even without homeground support...malaysia deserve a semis spot as same as korea is...but they will have a great battle tonight...i think ina will win in semis...that are beyond the strenght and ability of ina to take points from china in uber final...hope senayan make miracle happen...

[Hitman71]

Msia might field HH as 2nd single, ... since he beat BCL recently at the ABC championship. WCH don't stand a chance against BCL, and HH against CJ doesnt look good for HH.

[limsy]

bae youn joo is world junior championship 2007 1st runner up

ok...i think bae youn joo have no high level team event experience...she is the one that i think will down by nerves...anyway...i haven watch bae youn
joo match...so...cant say much...but i believe to lydia strenght and ability...but i hope malaysia win without lydia hope...lydia now hold the record of unbeaten in this uber edition(i mean in malaysia team that featured twice...)...

in other hand...i will happy to see my friend to win the semis spot for malaysia...

[quek29]

how about letting the scratch pair to play again??as the astro commenter said: its youth+experience!!! rexy, i suggest koo KK to pair Chong TF. second doubles tan boon heong pairing lee wan wah...haha!!!
let the experienced guys calm the boys down~~

[badMania]

Msia might field HH as 2nd single, ... since he beat BCL recently at the ABC championship. WCH don't stand a chance against BCL, and HH against CJ doesnt look good for HH.

and let young Arif play against Chen Jin :cool:

hahaha....really funny:D.....the match stopped if 3-1 not 4-1....u overconfidence dude...wow...:eek::eek::eek: it means England will take point at least from Olympic Champ and MD World Champ...hohohohoho:D:D:D

u misunderstand...he/she mean england win korea in group match with 4-1 score

[limsy]

and let young Arif play against Chen Jin :cool:

no no no...malaysia will lost if hh is 2nd single...malaysia still need choong hann even he mostly wont win against bcl...chen jin will lost to hh i think...

[Erwin Kyoto]

u misunderstand...he/she mean england win korea in group match with 4-1 score

ups..they did...:D thx..

[jasonmarc]

no no no...malaysia will lost if hh is 2nd single...malaysia still need choong hann even he mostly wont win against bcl...chen jin will lost to hh i think...

HH just beaten BCL in ABC....last month......;)

[AlanY]

no no no...malaysia will lost if hh is 2nd single...malaysia still need choong hann even he mostly wont win against bcl...chen jin will lost to hh i think...
the truth is MAL is up against the 3 of the top 4 MS in the world. the bottom line is LCW must win, if so, the MAL will have a flighting chance.

[AlanY]

ups..they did...:D thx..
of course we did, and a well deserved one as well.

[Hitman71]

and let young Arif play against Chen Jin :cool:


:D don't think arif can beat CJ .... but at least Msia can steal one point from the singles (LD/LCW or BCL/HH). The MDs hopefully will win both matches ( hopefully rexy had design another briliant strategy for this to happen) :o :o :o

[limsy]

HH just beaten BCL in ABC....last month......;)

yes...hafiz did won...how if malaysia cant win in the first 4 match???...when come to 2-2,then maybe arif fate are just like kuan nowdays...

[Coelacanth]

By the way why is HKG fielding that women singles lineup like that for two days already. Where's Zhou Mi and Wang Chen? badMania, you know the reason?

[jasonmarc]

Just hope the Danes will spring a surprise to KOR....who knows.....just like
German over Den in UC just now.....hehehe

Wang Chen is injured and Zhou Mi isn't eligible to represent HKG.

ya..kak...i think u was a male when i first saw your name...^^...but not realy friend also lar...just chat sometime...they was always busy but some people are still got time to online everyday...too free i think...^^...no offence too any mj or my(malaysia youngster) that thinking i am saying about him or her...^^...

[jasonmarc]

Wang Chen is injured and Zhou Mi isn't eligible to represent HKG.

Without this two players....HK team has become the weakest team in today's UC QF........:rolleyes:

[danielwong]

our best strategy to beat CHN
is to at least steal one point from single
and get maximum 2 from doubles...
to get the one point single line-up is very important...
LCW have no choice to face LD
2nd and 3 rd singles must prepared to steal one point
if (touchwood) LCW failed...

[danielwong]

Still having trauma from kuan.....:D

Arif Latif will not become KBH
when Arif lost in asian junior team final
he never let the victory to kill his
badminton careers..
KBH disappear straight away after TC....:confused::confused:

[eaglehelang]

Poor KBH, forever ppl (and himself) remember him as the one who lost the deciding match against Denmark in 2006 TC.

But Hafiz against CJ, is underdog, lost also ppl wont bash hard. China is defending champs, Msia.... inconsistent, malay press like to put as "prestasi tak menentu".
I still think it may be up to Hafiz, if our MD can win 2 pts. LCW vs LD, % low for LCW to win. WCH vs off form Bao, 45-55. So, up to MS2 & MS3 to win a pt.

[vching]

who says WCH has no chance against Bao?

[suetyan]

anyone knows why JJY is not playing for the first single???? Is she injured??

Yes, just checked the information, Astro will broadcast Msia v. Korea :DI wonder if that means we see this match in HK as well. No JJY means a more evenly balanced match.
