2 Legends 2 Warriors 3 sets of Game 1 Winner And no looser. Thats what this match turned out. No other players can attain this level of respect in Badminton World. LCW and LD are the best Shuttlers of this Century. Rest follows them.. 😍 this video is like BadminPorn 😁😂😅
This is not only memorable, but also one of the most epic badminton match ive ever seen in my life. Look at the quality of both players on netting shot, smash, lob, and everything! That is why both player fight hard to get one point.. But simply, Lin dan was just too good. He deserve it...
Miles Chan cause players dont have the stamina nor the technique to play offensive style like those two . The closest one is Viktor in 2016, but he could nt keep his form due to injuries.
I dont think badminton has ever been played on a higher level than this match. Both players at their peak, incredible fast game. Even if Momota is great but from the tempo standpoint, this match is on a totally different level.
Yeah, hard to compare, cause Momota plays low risk shots all the time, so a match like that wouldnt be possible. But it would be a hard time for him competing them at this point xD I mean, they were both so fast and still so patient luring for the kill (Maybe LCW not patient enough sometimes).
Three guys who are speaking sense. Yes, Momota is a percentage player. Low risk, more defensive compared to Lin Dan. Some of the Danish commentators say he has a better “basic game” compared to his peers now, which is why he tends to make less errors. Different style of play compared to Lin Dan but yeah, I would agree Lin Dan and Chong Wei are probably better players than Momota during their peak.
If Lin Dan didn't exist I don't think anyone would've believed that there could be someone better than LCW, like people would've laughed at you for suggesting that.
@@iitbombay5736 that's a baseless assumption...given that he was also no 1 (beating lin dan many times) and has won quite many championships as well... It was LCW and chen long as the main opponents for world no 1
Insane how both sustained such high level through out the match. Incredible rallies. In the most important moments Lin Dan just kept hammering the LCW deep forehand side, and he was rewarded with errors in the last two points.
Every time when I see this match I got so angry and upset that it's always just a little bit more for LCW to win the world championship title, only a tiny teeny bit more. Argh!
lol.. that is because you don't see the strategy.. LD started to make heavy midcourt play receiving the shuttle very early on mid court, making LCW worry... LCW is no longer able to keep LD to corners. That is why his game starts to step down.. In the last point, LCW gets the strategy, he also tries fast midcourt pushes, but he did not calculate things good enough, the second last stroke of LCW was just above the net.. before making a hard push to net, he should have thought that, if more down, it will go into net, but in order to speed up the play, to make pressure on his opponent, he missed that calculation, and thus lost.. So it was not just a little more, it was a lot more.. don't just look at the points. Look at the strategies as well..!!
Incredible match. Besides the 2012 olympic final probably the best match ever played between the indisputable best male players ever picked up a badminton racket.
This is the benchmark for pro badminton player. Its really hard for any players to reach this level. The speed pace, accurate, skills, stamina, pressure l, luck, fans reaction and etc etc so insane and hype af. Just like my lovely british commentator said UN-BE-LIEVE-ABLE
Awesome game n beautiful edit.. but commentators should not put anyone down. Let's just agree that no commentators/explayers is as good as these 2 legends.
Lin Dan is the GOAT without a question you may say LCW was very consistent but Lin Dan has won most of the major tournaments.. which makes him the greatest of all time.
Best badminton match, if I watch other matches I have to use fast forward button frequently but not in this case, every bit of this three set is a delight to watch
It is amazing to see these 2 top caliber players sweating it out. LCW were definitely searching for weak point ,unfortunately the deception play of Lin Dan are merciless settings up killer shot after killer shot. Well , besides that to push or isolate LCW in the game, Lin Dan 's defense is immaculate and attacking shots devastating, world class that what it takes to defense the title , nothing less. Thanks for sharing the video.
Robby Burnpipe doesn’t have to hurt any Malaysian. Chong Wei is a legend is his own right. Most weeks at no. 1. In my personal list of legends, I’d probably put him behind Lin Dan, Chen Long, Taufik, and maybe Yang Yang. He’s probably up there with Lin Dan technically, but mentally it was tough for him for some reason.
In the last set Lin Dan keep feeding Lee Chong Wei in the right side back of the court and every shot Lee Chong Wei return were at the front side. Lin Dan must have predicted those returns... BUT AN AWESOME MATCH
and only in the last Olympics semis ...Lee changed that return to forehand net corner .. and Lin Dan was waiting for the shuttle on the other side of the net .. and Lee won that point and semis ... Lee took 12years to understand LinDan's tactics.
I for sure am an absolute fan of Lin Dan. But you are right, I would never be disappointed when LCW would have won this match. He as Lin Dan would have fully deserved it. LCW played so well in this match.
LIN DAN is more calm and composed player. He waits for the perfect time to smash unlike LCW. LIN makes the badminton so smooth than power hitting or strength. Both are great player. But LIN have a slight higher edge in handling the match.
Agreed. It's sad that LCW doesn't have as much mental fortitude as LD in high level matches. You can clearly see LCW has such great skills but his nerves get to him when it counts the most!!!
I am hardcore fan of LCW..but i will never put dislike on Lin Dan match..he has my respect...coZ i know how good he is...mayb who hit dislike is from country with no badminton history..who knows😂😂
Why the heck second commentator is so biased towards Lin Dan. You are watching two giants of the game. Just be grateful and appreciate the shots and their game.
Commentator: Lin Dan losing point, great play by Lin Dan Commentator: Lee Chong Wei amazing point-saving shots, great play by Lin Dan to be ready for net shot.
