LD did very well to nullify Taufik's weapon. either by not allowing him to have to to back up to the rear court, or by not netting so close so Taufik cannot re-drop tightly. in various occasions net-net returns created a very tense match as neither side would want to lift. taufik was smart in a couple of occasion when he jumps up and drop instead of smash. catching LD off guard. LD doesn't have much chance to smash either as taufik was able to avoid lifting to Lin as well. very close game.
