All England 09

All England 09 (AE). I saw Chong Wei's game with Taufik for semi finals and he won, and then I found out that he's meeting Lin Dan for finals. Lin Dan. The guy who beat him in Olympics last year..in not even 30mins (i think)...and he made Chong Wei looked like a beginner in badminton.

SO here i am wathcing the final between Chong wei and Lin Dan, hoping that Chong Wei can give his all...I do hope he wins, but if he doesnt, at least give a tough play to Lin Dan - cos I really thought the game during Olympics was C.R.A.P.

Like the game he played with Taufik...and also with Lin Dan last year..what I observed is that he is a defence player...he just literally take shots after shots from his opponents. He hardly attacks! Why ah? Strategy ah? Even the first set of AE he only gave ONE good smash, and good thing he made a point from that smash. And from what I see he gained points from Lin Dan's mistakes! Lin Dan won the first set, 21-19...out f the 19 points from Chong Wei gained, I think about 9-10 were made from Lin Dan's mistakes (mostly on the nets).

Oh my now Lin Dan is still leading for the 2nd set...come on Chong Wei!!! I'm rooting for you!!!! Attack attack!! Alamak...as much as Chong Wei is giving a few attacks on the second set..he is making the same amount of mistakes as well. Hmm..pressure is showing dy..even when i type this the commentator said the same thing. my, its 12-19!.... o'ow..mata akhir for Lin Dan!!!! Here comes the shot from Chong Wei....the shuttle goes to Lin Dan....and..OUT!!! Lin Dan got the game point!

Well, at least this time Chong Wei played a better game against Lin Dan. But I'll still wait for the day he can beat Lin Dan :) If not him then some other local player. Anyhow, CONGRATES Datuk Lee Chong Wei! Still rooting for ya! ;)
