    If the Danes get the serve back before Cai/Fu reach 10, my guess is they'll finish it there.

    "Jia You" is literally "add oil", or effectively means "go go". I'm not sure what the ladies are trying to say when they scream. It's too high pitched and coarse to make out anything :p

    Oh dear, Cai/Fu just lost :( 3-15, 15-11, 15-8 Chinese MD not doing well :(

    Good observation. I've always noticed the same thing about them. Maybe they play so fast that they don't have time to think about where they're going to place the shuttle. And then when they start to tire out and their opponents catch their speed, they can't figure out what the heck is going wrong with their game LOL.

    Today is one of the worst days in my life... Beginning with the news of Kim Dong Moon's defeat, followed by Lee Hyun Il, Wong Choon Hann, Lee/Choong, and now Cai/Fu...

    Well... congratulations to Denmark for making it through... earlier in the game when they were getting so few lifts and when they did, just couldn't break through Fu/Cai's defences, it must have been disheartening.
    But they read the game well and set the pace for the rest of the match.

    Once again, question marks over Fu/Cai's heads.
    Very disappointing that both Chinese doubles went out today.

    The difference between Chinese 'power play' and for example Indonesian doubles is obvious yes.
