LeoDaniel Boom. HokiKoba Bounced out. Leo can crouch down so good, Marthin has height.. dont think we have combination like that in MD. Looked easy as well. Leo serves is so good. if only Rian or Hendra (or Kevin now) can serve like him. Have noticed that he is such steady server.
LZJ made alot of errors. Anyway good game and i believe he will be back. This is an interesting JO for sure.
AhsanHendra is so steady. They are not prone to the deviations that all these youngsters have. Good mood , bad mood. If you wanna beat them, then you have to play well above your standard.
Sen and LZJ need to get their heads sorted out, and quick. One can’t smash, the other can’t lift. LZJ’s hip still remains an issue for him.
Hold up a message for Momota? The camera will love that! Don't know how effective this strategy would be if Momota doesn't make it to the final though.
Srikanth played really well. Well Deserved . He has more range of shots than LZJ. If I am not wrong, LZJ is powerful but if somebody neutralised him, he is gone, where another malaysian player who played Commonwealth games, is all rounder. His drawback is stamina. It's really crazy how these guys are very professional but could not concentrate on fitness and stamina.
Carnando/Martin together with Kusumawardana/Rambitan are the future of Indonesian Men's Doubles. I hope Rambitan recovers soon and the injury doesn't affect his performance
I would be happy enough if any of Team Japan are still left in the fray on Sunday. It is not looking too hopeful.
Indonesia MD has 6 lagit teams that can make it to any tournaments SF and F but BWF puts a civil war and knocks them all out in r32 and r16 or QF Hoki:Kobay are overrated just like the Olympics Gold medalist. when will they split hokikobay up ? Its obviously not working out and better prepair for paris with a better team. Minions never choked in the first round like this during there RUN 2018-2020. . Watanabe and hoki would seem excellent!
Cant underestimate what winning a title can give you. Chico & LeoDaniel just won SS title, met Japan Number 1 and knocked them both out at their home. Whether its circumstances , sometimes when its good its good and when its bad its bad.
And there goes Kento Momota again down the drain. Thrice failed in front of his home crowd. OG, WC2022, JO2022.
