Yes and this is what quoted by Misbun in thestar.com.my

“Lin Dan broke Chong Wei's rhythm in the first game. He sent the shuttle above Chong Wei at the back. This made it difficult for Chong Wei to return with accurate shots,” said Misbun in a telephone interview from Base.
“Chong Wei did well to come out of it in the second but he just did not have the finishing.
“Overall, I think, Chong Wei did well. He did not lose out on skill but on not having the right strategy to get back at Lin Dan. I am sure that the next time they meet, Chong Wei would have learnt well on how to handle a similar situation.”

I agree with Misbun. LCW panicked when LD rushed to a 10-1 lead in the 1st game and lost that game tamely. LCW tried to come back in the 2nd game as he held a 10-6 lead before LD scored 6 straight points to regain the
lead at 12-10. That obviously frustrated LCW but he somehow managed to gain a 17-16 before LD take over at 19-17. LD only allowed LCW to score another point before sealing the match.

After losing the 1st game, LCW still had a chance in the 2nd game but just couldn't finish it. LCW should have stayed calm and should have learned from LD (9-21 in HK07) and LHI (4-21 in KO08) on how they recovered from a 1st-game loss to eventually win the match.

Apparently, LCW still needs to improve mentally to stand a chance in the Olympic.

I disagree with you.
LCW needs to improve tactically to win in OG08.He has so many weapons to put together effectively, it's not easy to get it right all the time. But when he does, he leaves his opponents behind.(LD in JO07 and SC07;BCL in IO07 and FO07; CJ in JO07 and FO07)
 
LCW was dissapointed by his lost to Lindan. He did admit that Lindan played better than him yesterday. But do agree that he lost tactically and also did alot of errors which is unlike him.

I'm not sure whether u watched the match. But I'm trying to say is that LCW needs to improve his ability to change his game plan on court besides mentaly prepared for worst scenario. From my observation, obviously he didn't mentally prepare to lose the 1st game so badly, and after losing the 1st game, he lost his confidence slightly and his gameplan didn't work well on LD who played much better.

Dont think LCW is scared while facing LD, just that his brains cant seem to work properly in crucial situations. Wrong strategy in the 1st game, although nice try in the 2nd, but still stumble in crucial situations.

The strong drift was behind him in the 1st set, he should hv attacked more instead of lifting the shuttle, it was long for a dozen of times and giving away cheap points..... I wonder whats going on with his mind... :mad:
If he is able to keep the points in play, it might be a much closer match.
LD was smarter in that sense, he attacked more in the 2nd set when the drift was behind him.

Drift or no drift, LD is a much better player shuttler than LCW. And he showed that last night by totally outplaying LCW.

yeah,at least some of my famale teammates ranks him the most handsome player. but imo he seems to lack manliness.

Taufik used to be the favorite player in our club when we were expecting wonderful head to head in confrtation with Lindan. but now it is LCW. we need to give special thanks to the three above,for bringing us the coolest era of badminton.

"That's exactly the problem, LD. I lose, they say I'm not good enough. I win, they think I'm not good enough either. There's no pleasing anybody, is there?"
