[Tjun Tjun]

Weak reply from Bao and Sony not about to give it away...........17-14..............

[ctjcad]

Scores update:

Bao CL lost 1st game; won 2nd game; behind 15-18..Sony separating himself now??..Bao is starting to make errors..crowd is getting restless...Sony trying to shake off Bao..
THA lost 1st game; lost 2nd game

[nunu27]

sdk leading 18-15

[nunu27]

double ZANG won the game 21-14, 21-14

[Tjun Tjun]

Bao misses the soft touch and Sony accepts it with a smile.....18-15......now 2 points away from victory.....19-15...............

[simonlovers]

[abesadi]

[Tjun Tjun]

5 match points to Sony............20-15.............

[ctjcad]

Scores update:

Bao CL lost 1st game; won 2nd game; lost 3rd game..Aiyooyoo, Bao making errors after errors...Sony on the brink of another Final appearance..and Sony wins it after Bao sends a cross court flat forehand return into the net...good game for both players, but errors in the 2nd half of the 1st and 3rd games cost Bao the match..

[Tjun Tjun]

Yup, Bao vs Sony. Now is China vs china (yawn), so i off the PPmate

[ctjcad]

XieZB & Zhang YW ahead 9-7 (1st game)..this is just like watching the INA XD pairs who were playing earlier...:p
SunJJ & Xu Chen vs. Cai & Fu warming up..

the crowd is definitely not into it...but cheered with the arrival of the 2 MD pairs..

[ctjcad]

XieZB & Zhang YW ahead 14-11 (1st game)..Yu Yang looks so relaxed..CHN's coaching staff, sitting in the stand, trying their best to look interested..
SunJJ & Xu Chen ahead 9-5 (1st game)

[ctjcad]

XieZB & Zhang YW won 1st game; getting ready for 2nd game..
SunJJ & Xu Chen ahead 17-10 (1st game)..i hope the new pair wins so i can see them in action tomorrow..;)

crowd has definitely disappeared..the last 2 match of the day...so as the rest of the BCers in this thread...

[agakarebatu]

XieZB & Zhang YW ahead 14-11 (1st game)..Yu Yang looks so relaxed..CHN's coaching staff, sitting in the stand, trying their best to look interested..
SunJJ & Xu Chen ahead 9-5 (1st game)

:D:D:D

I can imagine that!

:D:D:D

How do you know???:p:p

[robin7]

Yu Yang is daydreaming and showing no interest in winning the match...

[ctjcad]

Scores update:

XieZB & Zhang YW won 1st game; ahead 12-2..XieZB trying to do a Nova impersonation by belting out a couple of roars
SunJJ & Xu Chen won 1st game; ahead 9-6 (2nd game)

..this is turning into a Japan Open tournament..the crowd is non-boisterous..so polite!

[sumbadder]

YY/HHB aren't even trying...

[ctjcad]

okay, i think i saw a couple of the CHN's coaches just fall asleep on their seats..

[robin7]

Wrong pick again. XZB/ZYW are gonna win in straight sets...

[ctjcad]

Scores update:

XieZB & Zhang YW won 1st game; won 2nd game (easily)..They should've just put Yu Yang and Du Jing to play this XD match (can we tell much difference anyway??)..:rolleyes:;)
SunJJ & Xu Chen won 1st game; ahead 17-12 (2nd game)

[robin7]

OMG, CY/FHF are losing...

[aulia]

okay, i think i saw a couple of the CHN's coaches just fall asleep on their seats..

Hahaha...:D:D

They are in the same 'mode' with the crowd.....:p:p

*need sent bird into them???:p:p Maybe Yu Yang can do it, hehe, seems more interesting for her than winning the match...

[ctjcad]

The last interesting-but-too-bad-they-didn't-show-it-on-TV match just ended...Sun JJ & Xu Chen won over their senior compatriots in straight sets...goody, tomorrow we'll be seeing them play against badMania's fave MD pair!! wheeee...:cool:;)

..on that note, it's time to turn off the livestream...hope tomorrow CCTV5 will stay true to their promise and show all 5 matches!..:(

[CLELY]

So tomorrow finale will stage three matches of CHN >< INA :

MS -- Chen Jin vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro
MD -- Kido/Setiawan vs Sun Junjie/Xu Chen
XD -- Nova/Lilyana vs Xie Zhongbo/Zhang Yawen

INA has good chance in MD, also XD but not sure SDK could overcome CJ.

[abesadi]

I cant believe cai yun/fu hai feng lose so easy this afternoon.. Maybe it is china tactics to let the younger pair go to final to increase their rank or what?

..stranger things have happened..and let me tell you, if Sony is able to dig deep, i mean really dig deep and for some unknown reason can find some sort of inspiration for himself, ya know, we'll probably see him pull off another surprise and afterwards he can finally take off that so called mantle of "Mr. Quarter Finalist"...maaan, from "Mr. Quarter Finalist" to being a back-to-back SS winner, wouldn't that be something?? i think only LinDan or Chen Jin has done that before, right??..:confused:;):cool:
*okay, okay, i hope i'm not putting a jinx on Sony...:p

..i would have to say, the INA squad should've let the younger pair (Hendra AG/Joko) enter the Final..After all, the current OG & WC champs are entering a possible trap tomorrow.:rolleyes:

Lets see tomorrow.. Hope sony will take the third ss winner to idul fitri present next week..

Semangat sony!

Kindra juga semangat!

Nolyn juga semangat!

Indonesia bisaa..

[XiaoQi]

Shock to see both chinese md and xd lose so easily to their compatriots... Doesnt reflect their standard...

[limsy]

[badMania]

Quite shocking to see Fu Haifeng/Cai Yun and He Hanbin/Yu Yang beaten in the SF. However, I am pleased that Sony Dwi Kuncoro proved me wrong by beating Bao Chunlai for the second time in a row. Now, he will have a chance to win back-to-back Super Series titles tomorrow against Chen Jin.

So, it will be:
Chen Jin [4] vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro [5]

Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir [1] vs Xie Zhongbo/Zhang Yawen [3]

Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan [1] vs Sun Junjie/Xu Chen

[badMania]

..i would have to say, the INA squad should've let the younger pair (Hendra AG/Joko) enter the Final..After all, the current OG & WC champs are entering a possible trap tomorrow.:rolleyes:

Err...possible trap???? Maybe Fu/Cai are not in a good form, after the long rest, just like Kido/Hendra were beaten by Rian/Yoke last week.

However, it should be a tricky match. Kido/Hendra need to be alert and I think the chances of winning another title in China should be pretty good.

:p..i can imagine some BCers turned into nervous-nellies, eh, when the CHN pair was on the brink of winning the 2nd game??;)..it would be a "trap", in a sense, that everyone (if not most) would be expecting the current OG champions to cruise all the way, only to see them fall to the surprising & much lower-ranked CHN's MD pair (can attribute to CHN pair playing loosey-goosey/no pressure, unknown to INA pair & playing @ home):p
