    Ginting is such a spectacular player. Always 110%. Only difference today is his stamina is better and he managed to keep up with the pace. The strings and strings of errors was a bit frustrating though. AA hand plan was a bit strange. Not much in terms of attack. VA will have a better repertoire against Ginting.

    Ginting really sucked 10 years of my life
    He was so tense that 80% of Antonsen's points in the last set came from his mistakes....
    Glad that he finally passed through

    Someone here meant its now VA's Gold to lose. I definitely agree. No matter who progresses VA shall win. His form seems to be like the MD Chinese Taipei team, minus the loss in the first game. I believe lately,Head to Head, of VA is better against all the 3.

    Kindly correct me if i am mistaken ,but its Olympics ,hardly anyone would have expected CL to get past LZJ so comfortably.

    Lets see what CL can bring to the table.

    Do you honestly think CTC will beat CL? Isn't their h2h like 27-2 in favour of CL? And have you missed CTC's 2021 campaign so far?

    AA has no weapons. He didn't even smash when the shuttle was 3/4 length. Relying on the opponent's mistake.

    VA is looking beyond the SF.

    CTC body language says he is defeated already and looks intimidated by the Dragon

    Throughout his career CTC has been as impressive in important matches against top players as Matsumoto/Nagahara have been against Koren pairs.
