Although I'm a LYD/YYS fan, it is actually good to see Ahsan/Setiawan beat them as it makes for more exciting badminton and mixes it up a bit. Ahsan/Setiawan really played well, their midcourt and forecourt dominance was amazing.
Setiawan definitely one of the best front player all time, what a thrilling final against LYD tonight, really enjoyed the match
A really well deserved victory tonight at Malaysia Open 2015 final! Beating LYD/YYS again in 3 games (14-21 21-15 23-21), hope this is a new beginning for them in year 2015 and hope they will stay injury free, especially Ahsan with his back problem.
Definitely. not only effective that he wins points there, but with such a calm and thoughtful manner too.
They are back winning again. After watching them play in Malaysia Open, they are in for the top of the podium. Always enjoy their matches.
They did play very well against LYD and YYS. The match could have gone either way, but I think HS/MA did play that little bit better on the day and deserved the win. LYD made too many errors and wasn't his usual self imo. I really enjoy seeing how HS/MA play against the big smashers like FHF/ZN and comparing it against the likes of LYD/YYS. LYD/YYS seem to struggle more by taking on the smashes all the time but this is not always a good tactic - despite having such solid defence. HS/MA on the other hand don't take on the smashes, instead by never lifting, it disables the advantage of the big smasher. Sounds obvious, but tactically when the rallies are flatter, it plays into the hands of both HS/MA with Setiawan so good at reading, placement and fast flat play.
