Well, dont underestimate Kento Momota. He's really good & possible candidate that may become top players in the future.
He may be young but he has a high ranking (No 14), higher the Wei Feng (No 27).
He really plays well when he played against DU Peng Yu. So anything can happen here.
I salute him because he has a very good fighting spirit regardless the ranking of his opponent.
If CWF is able to play well & dont crack under pressure, the match can go either way.

HTH/TBH also need to play well. They usually lead then at the end lost. I saw it in during the matches against Korea & Denmark.
I hope they can play well 2morrow. Please avoid the way they played in Game 2 against Indonesia.

China won against Japan 3-1.

LCW I saw at twitter he mentioned about swollen foot. I hope its not serious. The problem with Kenichi Tago is he is not very consistent.
But, he's good on form when fighting against Chen Long though.So, there is a possibility for him to create upset.
Hopefully LCW can prevail the 1st match, if not I believe the team will fall apart.

MS3, I dont really have confidence in our player. Liew Daren lost all his matches. Japan has better chance here.

Most importantly Mas must show a good fighting spirit & dont be affected with all those expectation to win.
They need to focus on their game & take 1 point at a time.
If not, there is possibility for them to crack under pressure, lose focus & lose to their opponent.
Anyway I'm proud for them to be able to reach final. Honestly, I dont expect them to reach so far in
this year Thomas Cup.

May the best team win.

Just my 2 cent

Yes there's a live telecast.

Well anyway I'm not sure if all the rewards given will help our badminton team. The players may become big headed & same things will
happen after TC 1992. Mas badminton has been in slump after they won TC until the success of LCW.
I'm worried similar things that happen to KKK/TBH will happen to Mas team.
BAM will not try to improve & seek new talent. MS looks bleak in the future after LCW retires.
Wei Feng & Liew Daren are already 27 years old.
No other young MS looks promising & able to carry the nation flag in future.

For e.g, Japan has promising youngster in MS, Kenichi tago & Kento Momota.
Kento is only 19 years old though.

Even MD is also not very consistent in winning. Up & down like yoyo.

Yeah this year is a very unexpected as not many people put a high hope in Mas team.
If Mas fail to win TC this time, not sure how many years Mas need to wait
as we no longer has a reliable MS after LCW retires.

Due to the ranking, Lin Dan play as MS3. However, China didnt managed to play until the last matches as Japan won 3-0.
The problem started when Chen Long fail to deliver the 1st crucial point.
Then the team falls apart.

That's why I said never underestimate Momota. Mas supporters though Momota is easy meat. He is rank 14 at 19 years old though.

Well not a surprise. That's why many people think Momota as future top rank players that may take WR1 in the future.

Easy meat?Lol

Mas should win MD1 just now. So the probability to win will be higher.
Momota is too good for CWF. That's why CWF rank is low than Momota.

I guess the game depends on MD2 whether Mas
can still continue their challenge or lose 3-1.

Liew Daren is not that good. He lost all the games in thomas cup. He played LD I think long time ago. I dont put high hope in him.

I think sayonara Thomas Cup.
If MD2 crumble under pressure,then no hope for us.

Liew Daren =__=''

Lol do u know that Momota has better skills than CWF. It's not a surprise for him to lose.
Momota rank 14 while CWF only 27.
Only some Mas supporters though Japan is an easy meat

Yep. I think he is new Lin Dan in the making.

Well u can saw their last match in 2012 end up in rubber game. CWF won small margin 22-20 in the third game.
That time Momota only 17 years old.

They are not a regular pair. This pair is formed during TC. In other tournament, GVS is partnering with LKW

hehe I have not posted in BC for quite some time. You're also here~I think u r also not very active in BC already right?

haha me too. Just come here to LoL The comment here is too interesting I can say

I think Liew Daren wants to become the 1st captain that lose all matches in Thomas Cup.
Bravo! 1 more game to prove u r a loser..lol

Hopefully we can. This time no Lin Dan as BWF didnt give wild card.

Agree. So near yet so far

Problem with Mas players are attitude & laziness. So many nonsense here.

Maybe in 2years time he can play another TC. However, not sure if we can ever get a chance again to go into final.

I think the problem here is BAM just depends with LCW success.
They didnt try to groom another MS player.
They are just talking but did nothing at all.
I am totally frustrated with BAM.
