i'm quite worry for malaysia in the semis... the coaches have to change the strategies.. anyway, hope to see the malaysian tigers roar... LOL
i hope wong choon han will be back for the match againts denmark and hafiz to continue his good form. MALAYSIA BOLEH!
Hmm, Malaysia sudah tidak boleh lagi. It's very very very impossible to beat Denmark, with WCH's injury & bad perform of MD1, poor...!!!
With WCH's absense, the changes for Mal to beat Den is even slimmer, I say Den should cruise to the finals against China. Feel so sorry for Mal team, trying so hard but luck is not on their side.
I am sure WCH's absence will spur the rest of the team to go all out! Hopefully CCM/KKK will give a better performance.
My friend who watched the matches last night between Mal vs. Kor made a comment KKK was trying too hard to show off and he ended up making too many unforced errors. This is very discouraging to hear because its definitely not the time any player wants to fool around on the court.
You are right. I watched them playing in Denmark Open and Asia-Europe Tournament. Kien Kiat made a lot of mistakes, tried to show off and made some drop shots when it wasn't necessary, too harsh and not mature enough, wanted to save every ball though Chong Ming could do it as well. Chong Ming was advising him and trying to cool him down along the match. Chong Ming has a great defensive then. Rexy had asked some help from psychologist to advise them when he first took over the job as CCM/KKK lack some faith in their partners. Thought this could work. But then nthg has changed. I wonder when is Kien Kiat goin to change his attitude?!
Anyway, Kien Kiat has sharp smashes and can do a very good job at the net and some blocks to the opponent's offensive play. If he could play his normal game, i am sure Kien Kiat can shine.
It is sad to see Wong Choong Hann to retire (a Thomas Cup match) due to injury but it is not the end for him as we are all looking forward to see Choong Hann back in court and play for the country again in the future. All the best wishes to Wong and get well soon. We are all behind you and Malaysia SURE Boleh! On the bright side, it has been a good opportunity for Hafiz to show what he has got to offer and he sure has got what it takes to be the next national cum world champ!!! Well done Hafiz and all the best to you too!! As for the rest of the Malaysian team, the same to you guys too!!!
im happy that mas finally edged out korea 3-2 after wch was forced to retire by injury. lcw performance is impressive. ccm/kkk played below expectation and i hope they can play better during the match with denmark. with wch out, we have a weakened 2nd and 3rd singles. hafiz played quite well against jang but must raise his game if he wants to beat kj. i hope the whole mas team is fired up to bring back the thomas cup!
It's really hard to say about KKK, yes i agree that he played very poor yesterday when he&ccm against Korea pair . Maybe he is trying to showoff or maybe he is nervous. I think he need more motivation from his coach or psychologist. Is it all about attidude and mental only. Tomorrow will be another hard test for them. MAS team must really workhard as they already miss WCH in MAS team. Really hope MAS can come back with Thomas CUP!... Malaysia BOleh!!
and who do they field as 2nd doubles? they cannot place any pairing in any position they like. they need to conform to the order of the international ranking.
