Even so, LD should hv kept his cool, i dont see any player reacted like LD before. If i were the umpire, he would had got his black card already. And this is not good for LD's preparation towards Beijing, it shows that he is vulnerable mentally.
everyone please read this article from badzine.. seriously shockingly unprofessional and barbaric way to deal with bad line calls.. u can understand why the korean bench got violent after that...... http://www.badzine.info/content/view/820/2/ world #1 with so many titles under his belt... is such action even necessary.. thats why I never admire LD
Those were really heated scene, at some point LD looks like he wanted to kick the korean coach. And Li Mao and the chinese coach nearly get physical. Wow, ... ( if LCW he will just blame the linesman, TH will just walk away hahahaha). I recorded the match, and watch it again in slow mo, zoom in, and it seems that LD is correct, . the shuttle was out. Anyway the empire should also have a good view .. so maybe it was in ... BAD sportmanship by LD, congrats to LHI, he really deseve it and LD really deserve the yellow card.
and by the way i have always admired LHI.. he is one of my all time fav! He is cool and calm, very skillful and professional.. such a great come back I hope he can qualify in time for olympic!
Wah.. sounds a lot like a triller movie, somebody really upload the vids. Taufik would have kicked up a fuss too, he did in SEA Games.
How can't i miss this...haiz.. i really hope to watch this match... hmm..i think that lindan's attitude needs to be adjusted... he is seriously bad tempered... Anyway...congrats hyun-il!
how come Korean and China are so famous of bad line calls? it's a traditional culture thing eh?? not everybody can do it.............hehehehe.............
back to back finalists in 2 SS, not an easy achievement. I believe that LYI will storm into top 5 before 2008 ends. He is certainly the one to look out for at Beijing later this year, besides TH, LD and LCW. From his recent performance, he is at the top there of the league with LCW n LD for MS now.
ok, a BCer, elderplayer has uploaded the last 9 min of that match at the "[Request] Korean Open " Video Sharing Thread. That scene is at 3 min. From what I see, LD didnt throw his racket. He was pointing it in Li Mao's direction. Maybe the racket throwing part was another scene?? WHen the umpire made the call, LD was unhappy. Li Mao stood up, said sthing, China coach came up to Li mao side & said sthing, both pushed each other. Tournament assistants had to hold the coaches back. Li Mao said sthing, LD got angry, pointed his racket at Li Mao's direction & shouted sthing back. The tournament referee & assistants held LD back, told LD to continue. LD didnt throw his racket, he was still holding it & played with it. Li Mao was still standing & said sthing. Then, the umpire gave LD the yellow card.
LD is a complete player,just like YY previously...Those who win against him...i can only consider it lucky....
Why so many controvesial in badminton lately? Especially happened in MS Finals. From CO07 --> SEA GAMES --> KO08 When it can be stopped
