and as expected, CL evens it for China. China 1-1 Indonesia and a last burst from Lee Don Keun gave Korea the 2nd point. Korea 2-0 Germany
OK...another crucial match begins...Angga Pratama/Rian Agung Saputro against the World and Olympic champions Fu Haifeng/Cai Yun. It will be a jaw-dropping result if Angga/Rian can steal this match!
it is pretty much over for Germany as Lee/Ko are stepping into the court. but the tie between China and Indonesia is very much alive.
The Group 2 top of the table clash between Netherlands and France is no less intriguing. Now the score is one apiece - and the MD match is one game apiece. Dieter Domke is soo unlucky - led 18-15 at the tailend of the match, but then committed so many errors to lose 19-21
M3,G1: CAI Yun/FU Haifeng - Rian Agung SAPUTRO/Angga PRATAMA 20 - 17, 20-18, 20-19, 21-19... a lucky netting seals the game for Cai/Fu
What a missed opportunity as the bird lingered around the net and fell into the INA side to make it 21-19 to Fu/Cai!
Desperation time for THA. They are forced to field a less than 100% Rat. Maybe a bit of intimidation tactics.
