4-4

[madbad]

Hopefully, these two pairs (YW/ZJW & LKW/LHJ) will meet again in Beijing!

Lee/Lee v any of the CHN pairs would be a good match. I'd like to see them battle the tomboys Du/Yu just for entertainment value

[masjoko]

same channel... its even 5-5 now!

[madbad]

LL 5-5 JSY. I wonder what LYB told LL after she nearly blew it yesterday.

[ctjcad]

..looks like Jang Soo Young is not really comfortable @ the net..Lu Lan can expose that??..

[drifit]

same channel... its even 5-5 now!

7-5................
stream or astro?

[robin7]

Both Lu Lan & Jang Soo Young are at the same height of 175cm! :eek:

[masjoko]

its streaming. actually i cant really see the player. its blur.

[kwun]

JSY looks kinda skinny. anyone know how old she is? KOR always brings out these young players during UC matches and surprise everybody.

[masjoko]

common soo yung! 2 more points to be even!

[drifit]

its streaming. actually i cant really see the player. its blur.
i see. delay 2-3 minutes compare to astro.

JSY looks kinda skinny. anyone know how old she is? KOR always brings out these young players during UC matches and surprise everybody.

Brandon needs driver at 8am...............:)

[SImplelenna]

Both Lu Lan & Jang Soo Young are at the same height of 175cm! :eek:

Jang Soo young at 172 cm I think, well, on Trans TV -Jakarta very clear to see their Face....

[robin7]

LL is playing net with JSY...

[Jessica]

JSY looks kinda skinny. anyone know how old she is? KOR always brings out these young players during UC matches and surprise everybody.
I think she was born on 1982.I saw her profile just now on astro and she is rank 54 in the world.:rolleyes:

[robin7]

Jang Soo young at 172 cm I think, well, on Trans TV -Jakarta very clear to see their Face....
That's what Astro shows... both 175cm tall. LL's DOB 2 May 1987 but I didn't JSY's DOB.

[madbad]

Well, after LL woke up, she sure slapped JSY around some silly 21-9. OUCH!

[ctjcad]

...
Brandon needs driver at 8am...............:)
..Brandon will wake kwun up, on his chair....;)

[kwun]

I think she was born on 1982.I saw her profile just now on astro and she is rank 54 in the world.:rolleyes:

oh... Jang Soo Young not soo young then. ;)

[robin7]

JSY mishit the shuttle and it dropped on her head. So hilarious...

[kwun]

..Brandon will wake kwun up, on his chair....;)

he just sneezed. must be someone talking about him.

[Jessica]

I wonder why Korea did not feature Lee Yun Hwa as second single.She play pretty well yesterday.Now it a gone case for JSY as Lu Lan is on fire.

[ctjcad]

I wonder why Korea did not feature Lee Yun Hwa as second single.She play pretty well yesterday.Now it a gone case for JSY as Lu Lan is on fire.
..i was gonna asked the same question...?!?!..Now, worst comes to worst, if they do go to the last match, they're going with another inexperienced player...Oh well, i guess this will be just a preparation for KOR's UC squad @ the next Uber Cup edition..

[kwun]

LL at this point can just hit anywhere and she is going to win the match. JSY not keeping up with the pace physically and mentally and making errors here and there.

[drifit]

he just sneezed. must be someone talking about him.

bad ctjcad........ bad ctjcad..... bad ctjcad.......
bad drifit........ bad drifit ........... bad drifit.......:mad:
one sided game, boring, makes me feel sleepy........

..smiling and enjoying herself because she's sitting there relaxing and doesn't have to play..:cool:

[drifit]

Germany played well yesterday and their supporters were hillarious:eek:

hilarious........ as usual
they are enjoying the games...........;)

[jasonmarc]

LL 5-5 JSY. I wonder what LYB told LL after she nearly blew it yesterday.


Maybe its like this....

LYB : Lu Lan, another lost in this Uber Cup will kill all your chances to play in
Beijing....You better don 'play-play'......;)

[samuel882]

...the roar is going to get even LOOOUUUDER (maybe later tonight, too??)....:p ;)
Saw so many locals Q up in very long line while i walk towards stadium... The roar will be started tonite when their UC team up against germany

[Erwin Kyoto]

i thin germany will take first / second single..and i hope for another point, perhaps third single:confused:

yeah not easy for WS1...but INA+home ground supporters..MAria should give pt for INA team....:D

[demolidor]

Germany played well yesterday and their supporters were hillarious:eek:

Pictures? ;) More opportunities tonight :)

[ctjcad]

Saw so many locals Q up in very long line while i walk towards stadium... The roar will be started tonite when their UC team up against germany
...i guess that's the advantage of being a BCer, eh??:p.. Hau-ge must've already waved at you from far away, also??:) ;)...For tonight, i recommend you save your voice for tomorrow. You guys will need it for the MAS vs. CHN tie..;)

[madbad]

yeah not easy for WS1...but INA+home ground supporters..MAria should give pt for INA team....:D

I would say the opposite as Xu Huaiwen has been more than impressive for GER in this UC. Maria starts as the decided underdog. Crowd might help a little but Xu is so experienced she'll know how to deal with it.

[eaglehelang]

Good to hear BCers made it safely to Senayan.

And now China ladies & Korea ladies fighting it out....

[jasonmarc]

Saw so many locals Q up in very long line while i walk towards stadium... The roar will be started tonite when their UC team up against germany

Make sure all the BCer....display a big banner so we be able spot U all on TV screen........:D:D:D

Enjoy ur self there...:D:D

[badMania]

Uber Cup SF: INA vs GER

WS1: Maria Kristin vs Xu Huaiwen -- the GER player has the edge, but, the home crowd might swing the tie in the favor of the local gal, like yesterday's match against Yip Pui Yin.

WS2: Adriyanti Firdasari vs Julianne Schenk -- ditto here, with Firda in confident mood, I think she has a chance of beating the GER lady.

WD2: Jo Novita/Greysia Polii vs Birgit Overzier/Kathrin Piotrowski -- the crucial match...and Jo/Grace simply have to win this one at all cost. A tricky match for the INA pair, but, I believe they have the confidence to win it.

WS3: Pia Zebadiah vs Karin Schnasse -- likewise for Pia, she has been in good form throughout the week, so, I can see her contributing a point too.

WD1: Vita Marissa/Lilyana Natsir vs Julianne Schenk/Michaela Peiffer -- if this is the deciding tie, then, I am pretty sure that Vita/Butet can deliver the good.

INA to beat GER either 3-1 or 3-2.

[robin7]

WS1 Huaiwen Xu - Maria Kristin
WS2 Julianne Schenk - Adriyanti Firdasari
WD2 Birgit Overzier/Kathrin Piotrowski -Jo Novita/Greysia Polii
WS3 Karin Schnaase -Pia Zebadiah
WD1 Julianne Schenk/Michaela Peiffer - Lilyana Natsir/Vita Marissa
INA tomboys playing last increases the chances of GER winning the first 3 ties...

[madbad]

KOR fighting for survival. WD2 match is very close 15-15

[jasonmarc]

Eagle i checked .....RTM1 Live tomorrow SF MAS Vs CHN.....

[samuel882]

KOREAN both women double defense was excellent. Very hard to kill them off..

[Erwin Kyoto]

I would say the opposite as Xu Huaiwen has been more than impressive for GER in this UC. Maria starts as the decided underdog. Crowd might help a little but Xu is so experienced she'll know how to deal with it.

yeah..although Maria lost to Xu in previous tournaments..but if she plays like QF match ..hmm..1-0 for INA:p...lets see..

[masjoko]

Picture quality of course TV3 better. TV3 didnt show on tv, maybe go to do with airing rights.
English commentary if it's GIllian Clark is good, if like the guy.....
Chinese commentary is better, esp when they have guest coach.

abedeng....I m still in front of my PC screen.............so, where u sit, y i cant find u all?:D

[abedeng]

The crowd is singing and dancing, to the tune of their respective "choreographers".

The German team is so impressed, they gave one dance "choreographer" a souvenir.

Maria walks out, having had her ankles/knees/thigh strapped.

[abedeng]

Spotted Gillian Clark wearing her earpieces, and clapping hands following the tune of the crowd.

German team displays their "battle paraphenalia". The crowd cheers.

All players move out of arena, for the walk-in procession and intro.

[abedeng]

Susi Susanti being acknowledged by the crowd. Sitting just a few rows in front of us.

[abedeng]

I asked Hauge, "where is the crowd?" Stadium is still almost half empty.

[abedeng]

Players walk in to screams from the crowd.

The Final Countdown plays in the background.

[robin7]

Glad to see Susi Susanti again...

[abedeng]

And so do Indonesia, joined by their great legend.

Xu and Maria walk to court, the sound decibels go up double.

[ctjcad]

I asked Hauge, "where is the crowd?" Stadium is still almost half empty.
..the stadium seems half empty...WHERE IS EVERYBODY???...i guess they'll reserve it til the Final, IF the INA's UC squad moves on..;)

[ctjcad]

...abedeng, don't tell me you're going to do the play by play??...Abang Deng, tell Hau-ge to bring the BC banner tomorrow and hang it up. That way we all can & recognize where you guys are seating..:) :cool:

Ok, we're almost starting....

[robin7]

XHW to serve, play...

[d65up2]

Maria sooo preety

[ctjcad]

..wow, the crowd is really into it~chanting into every shot Maria is putting....and they're cheering the similar chant the KOR supporters usually cheer...:cool:

[badadum]

I would expect more activity/post here, I guess because everyone busy watching it in TV/live feed and there's no MAS UC team?

Anyway, Xu - Maria ties at 4-all
Go Maria!

[badboypedi]

oh xuuuuuuuuuu, she is such a "Strong" player :)

[winzerer]

maria looks so relax

[abedeng]

Early in the match, quite a bit of good play by Maria, but coupled with a few net errors.

[badboypedi]

ah in the background i saw german md player kindervater cheering for his compatriots, what a great thing :) this is REALLY A TEAM!!!!

[abedeng]

Maria is moving Xu quite a bit on court.

[winzerer]

Maria play really passionate

[ctjcad]

..seems like Maria is reading all of Xu's shots almost like braille...Youth vs. experience..:cool:

I would expect more activity/post here, I guess because everyone busy watching it in TV/live feed and there's no MAS UC team?
...
..partly, partly asleep...

[345HFS]

saw some artists in the crowd ... agnes monica and sandra dewi .. :D

[winzerer]

still....maria net still doesnt work quite well

[abedeng]

Xu turns the tables as Maria makes more net errors.

Maria responds by sending Xu deep into backhand corner.

[ctjcad]

..Maria might try to speed up the pace a bit...play more drives..

[robin7]

XHW 11-10 up in the interval...

[abedeng]

Sensing danger, the Indonesian cheerleaders rally up crowd support to motivate Maria.

Maria levels, 11-11

[ctjcad]

..wow what a series of net exchanges by both players...very nice...:cool:

[abedeng]

Maria deception breaks Xu's run of pts. Xu asks for timeout, not given.

[winzerer]

saw some artists in the crowd ... agnes monica and sandra dewi .. :D

Agnes look cute:D

Maria lil bit too passive

[winzerer]

with the way they play...in the end it will be the answer of stamina

[abedeng]

Mind games are starting, Maria refusing to change shuttle.

[345HFS]

with the way they play...in the end it will be the answer of stamina

cant agree more :cool:

[ctjcad]

..that series of backhand cross court slice returns by Xu were fantastic...a competitive 1st set, so far..

[Erwin Kyoto]

saw some artists in the crowd ... agnes monica and sandra dewi .. :D

[ctjcad]

[abedeng]

Now is time for courage, critical pts coming up.

[345HFS]

19-18 go mariiiaaa

[abedeng]

Maria muffs an easy placement.

[ctjcad]

..wow, Xu is already panting and the 1st game is not over yet...and the crowd chanting "Habisin! Habisin!" even louder..:p..

[nicolas33]

what happen with live score? come on kristin

[abedeng]

Gamept saved, as Xu slipped twice in that rally.

[ctjcad]

..wow, Xu fell down (even made a split), continued the rally and Maria finished it off with a clear...deuce 20-all..:cool:

[badboypedi]

Oh I Love To See My Team Cheering Xu!!!
Cmon Xuuuu!!!!!

[robin7]

XHW took the 1st game 22-20. What a close game it was .

[ctjcad]

..Abang Deng, how is Hau-ge doing??..looks nervous??..:p :)

[abedeng]

Maria missed a great chance to win 1st game, her 2 errors gift Xu the game though Maria is currently the better player on court.

[winzerer]

it was a great match....

c'mon Maria pace up a bit

[d65up2]

Good fight for Maria Kristin...is ok

[345HFS]

[IBaddersI]

[robin7]

XHW is in high confidence now after taking the 1st game..

[winzerer]

Maria should avoid net battle

[reiko80]

Maria should avoid net battle
even china hard to kill german....

[abedeng]

..Abang Deng, how is Hau-ge doing??..looks nervous??..:p :)

Hauge shook his head and looks to the heavens.

[reiko80]

Maria lost her focus n momentum in the last few points....but, looking at the way she plays, impressive...

Maria lost her focus n momentum in the last few points....but, looking at the way she plays, impressive...
..she was simply overclassed and ran out of stamina...

Now, coming up is the 2nd match. Let's see if Firda can shrug off Maria's lost and pull the INA's squad even with the GER. If Firda loses, the INA squad will be in a lot of pressure...

[abedeng]

Lauren aka smashie has just joined us in our VVIP box, sitting just in front of Uncle Loh.

Therefore she is under the protection of the tripod ...... kakakakaka.

[ronnie14]

Schenk is probably overawed by the occasion, a lot of silly mistakes.

[winzerer]

[ctjcad]

Hauge stood up, applauding Firda's lead.

[ctjcad]

INA 11-9 GER....Firda needs to up the pace..Schenk doesn't move around the court well...

[robin7]

Too many inforced error...typical INA....worrying
