Tago is a good player but he is not as fast as him that's the problem. It will take another year for tago-san to catch up to his standard. Credit to Chen Long for playing a wonderful game because it will be totally different outcome in a neutral ground in London. As for you Lin Dan, sorry to say but on paper you are a Coward. Grow a pair and learn from Chen Long's courage to play in front of such crowd.
too bad CL / LCW match was tainted by biased linejudges. i think lcw should've won this fair and clean.
yep..he stayed with me.....we met just in the morning...my meetings and dinner until 11 or midnite....
Currently in AUS, I grew up in NZ following the Black Caps in those days where we had Chris Cairns, Shane Bond, Nathan Astle etc ... I enjoy watching sixes being hit, but not in the T20 version as it is the norm.... I like genuine hitters like Gayle, Afridi (old version) and Sehwag etc... ALso genuine quicks that are threatening every ball e.g. AKhtar (in his prime), Malinga.... Currently I enjoy watching NZ and Pakistan the most, I don't like Aus at all ... and India have been the biggest letdowns in world cricket (so much for being rockstars of cricket lol!) Anyways sorry for being OT ...
That was definitely a unfortunate blip on otherwise a exciting, heart pumping match... It showcased some wonderful rallies and commitment compared with last weeks Korea Open Final where I was falling asleep watching .
agree. CL is a simple player, just plays badminton and no funny antics. also not the type that plays a lot of mind games unlike PG who complain about every tiny thing. purely just good badminton. hopefully he will keep it up and he will own badminton after ld/lcw retires.
You should watch AE final 2010. And that was two years ago. I don't think the crowd plays much of a part overall. In fact, I would argue the crowd made it more difficult for LCW - they booed TBH/KKK off the court when they lost. Depending on how you look at it, the crowd heaped a whole lot of pressure on LCW. At a neutral ground, LCW may perform much better, like in AE 2011 final against Lin Dan - straight sets victory.
