    Frankly i was very relaxed when watching this match, afterall, Susilo's true strength is not bad, he has won that many major international tournaments. aside from able to to play like a bubblegum (sustaining long rallies), his skill is still a level below Lin Dan. However, Lin obviously wanted to win too badly, when his attacks keep coming back, he didn't keep his calm and started to lose his confidence. enormous pressure resulting in mental imbalance, losing of rhythm on court and never realized his true ability. the result of losing the game is unavoidable.
