Misi balas dendam tak tercapai


CHONG WEI sekali lagi terpaksa akur dengan kehebatan Lin Dan.


HAJAT jaguh negara, Lee Chong Wei untuk membalas dendam terhadap seteru utamanya, Lin Dan dari China tidak kesampaian.

Selepas tiga bulan menunggu, akhirnya Chong Wei kembali 'disatukan' dengan Lin Dan.

Bagaimanapun Chong Wei sekali lagi terpaksa akur dengan kehebatan Lin Dan apabila tewas 18-21, 9-21 pada perlawanan akhir Kejohanan Badminton Terbuka China di Gimnasium Yuen Shen, Shanghai semalam.

Terdahulu, Chong Wei turun dengan misi membalas dendam selepas dia tewas kepada jaguh China itu pada perlawanan akhir Sukan Olimpik di Beijing Ogos lalu.

Pada aksi semalam, Chong Wei yang dilihat mampu memberi tekanan kepada Lin Dan khususnya di set pertama terpaksa tunduk dalam pertarungan yang memakan masa 39 minit.

Berbekalkan sokongan padu ira-kira 20,000 penyokong sendiri, Lin Dan ternyata sekali lagi berada dalam kelas tersendiri bagi menjinakkan Chong Wei yang juga pemain No. 1 dunia.

Sebelum itu, harapan untuk menyaksikan beregu wanita negara muncul juara juga tidak kesampaian.

Gandingan Wong Pei Tty-Chin Eei Hui sekadar berpuas hati muncul naib juara apabila tewas 14-21, 19-21 kepada beregu tuan rumah, Zhang Yawen-Zaho Tingting dalam tempoh 46 minit.

Dalam acara perseorangan wanita yang melibatkan pemain tuan rumah, Jiang Yanjiao menewaskan Zhu Jingjing, 21-15, 21-13.

Bagi acara beregu lelaki, pasangan Korea Selatan, Jung Jae Sung-Lee Yong Dae terpaksa bekerja keras sebelum menumpaskan pasangan Denmark, Boe Mathias-Mogensen Carsten 17-21, 21-17, 21-13.

Manakala bagi acara beregu campuran, satu lagi pasangan Korea Selatan, Lee Yong Dae-Lee Hyo Jung menewaskan pasangan China, Xu Chen-Zhao Yunlei, 21-16, 21-15.

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...

Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’

Saya setuju. We are working on more coaches! “ @ManOlimpik : Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’ http://t.co/7D7wmHWaNy ” — Khairy Jamaluddin (@Khairykj) June 10, 2014 The benchmark. Can our junior athletes train as hard as Malaysia's world No.1 badminton player, Lee Chong Wei? “IT IS okay lah. The training is not too bad lah. I will try lah … Wah, so hard lah today.” These are some of the common statements I hear from our juniors nowadays. It is not only in badminton. It is the easy-going, laid-back attitude and lack of competitiveness at grassroots level that we have problems producing quality players. I have travelled quite a bit. After ending my decade-long career with the national team, I went to play in the league in Europe. It’s different there. The European athletes know what they want. And they do it with real focus. Even the young ones possess admirable self-control and show a high level of commitment. During my time in the ...
