I prefer Limpele/Marissa to play against CHN XD tomorrow... I hope INA's manager will have a brilliant decision for the final.... Keep going and winning the Cup now..Indonesia... bringing to back home that title.....
yeah.. about tomorow will be really scary for INA... as i might turn up 3-0 for CHN just like last time :crying:
Prediction? china will win but I hope we can steal 2 matches....dont put high hope tomorrow...as long as they play..thats enough for me....
My strategy against Team China tomorrow: XD: Flandy Limpele/Vita Marissa vs Zheng Bo/Gao Ling -- if INA loses this, then we can kiss the Cup goodbye. So, I think the coach is likely to field Flandy/Vita since they have yet to play against Zheng/Gao. Fielding Nova/Butet will be risky. Also, Flandy will be fresh and Vita also only played straight sets today. This will allow Butet more time to recover. MS: Taufik Hidayat vs Lin Dan -- an absolute cracker...and IF Flandy/Vita manages to steal a point, Taufik will be even more motivated to win. WS: anyone vs anyone -- basically who cares...its a give-away point! MD: Candra Wijaya/Markis Kido vs Fu Haifeng/Cai Yun -- they have proven themselves today, so, its likely that Candra/Kido will yet be fielded again. The match experience today will also be crucial. WD: Greysia Polii/Lilyana Natsir vs Wei Yili/Zhang Yawen -- well...CHINA might choose to play this one before the last match (like today), so, safe to say that CHINA will win the cup if the scores are 2-1 or 2-2. Well, CHINA will definitely win the Sudirman Cup again. But, INA can surprise if we play the cards right
10% for INA is too rude!!－．－ｚｚｚ．． well although i cant hope too much for this.. but i still want INA to win lol.. anyway, we did great today.. and for tomorrow.. just play our best =) 'our' means INA in this case hihi
88-12% in favour of China. 50% for Taufik to win, 60% for Candra/Kido, 40% for Widianto/Natsir. How is Chen jin's record against Taufik? China might even field Chen instead of Lin. If Indonesia is to win the only possible score is 3-2. If they lose the opening XD then it's all over.
China 4 Indonesia 1 CHINA 3 vs INDONESIA 1 I think China still can be a champion this time. China will sure put point from MXD (Zheng Bo), LS (Zhang Ning @ Xie Xingfang) and LD (Yang Wei/Zhao Tingting) or MD (Fu Haifeng/Cai Yun). Indonesia may be take point from Taufik Hidayat for MS according current performance. Not more five matches......
tough for INA...well...just hoping for the best...I have no expectation for INA....but you will never know....the odds are in China's favour...
Yeah, I agree with most of the comments here. Like two years ago, the only way for INA to win is to win the XD, MS and MD. However, this is very unlikely. For these three matches, they are 55% to China. Nevertheless, I look forward to seeing Taufik play Lin Dan again tomorrow on Sky Sports Extra. Whenever those two clash, all other world-class players look like absolute beginners.
Now, I am not sure LYB wanna even field the not in form Lin Dan tomorrow. Bao Chunlai or Chen Jin can be fielded and they can afford to lose that point
OMG I do not agree, if Bao Chu Lai fielded I cant choose the winner TH is MY Country player but Bao is my favourite player aniway for tomorrow, which team that can get 1st point, that team will be the winner, 3-2 for INA or 3-1 for China, if order of play like today (MXD-WS-MS-WD-MD)
How is the lineup submission done? Does INA submit it first and then China gets to see who they can field? Or is it a double blind submission?
After watching the semifinal today, I will also say the same with you guys... It seems to be difficult for INA to beat CHN this time..., CHN team are in their top form... but impossible is nothing (as addidas adv)... If INA could win tomorrow... the badminton history would be a bit interesting of course...
Indeed, most if not ALL realistic INA fans like me DO NOT HARBOUR any hope of winning the elusive Cup. Getting to the Final itself is already considered a job well done as INA was drawn in the so-called Group of Death for the group stages. Not to mention INA has to endure trailing ENG 0-2 just now. So, there's nothing to lose for the players, except to just enjoy the matches and play their best.
