beautiful game
01 December, 2008
no, im not going to talk about the derby, because i believe you all watched it. the so call duel between robinho and ronaldo did not worked out, with the latter got sent off for a silly foul. silly boy. thank god we got rooney. he did the talking during midweek, and got his job done on the weekend. i think there ought to be some action for his reaction towards the city fans, but then, as long as we win, i dont care.
ok, the game i want to talk about is actually the men doubles final at the hong kong event. the game took place at the evening, and involved our owns fairuzizuan-zakry taking own some korean pairs, which i completely forgot their name.
the game clearly was something to enjoy. both sets of players used all their techniques and different strokes, which results in a pulsating game. really, you just love it when that zakri guy does his deceiving drop shots. get in, son!!
they malaysian pair lost the first set, but they lost after giving a very good account of themselves, pushing the game to a few deuces before losing. at that time, i just can feel that it will be the same result like always, so i decided not to watch the second game.
however, my instinct deceives me for once, because as i got back on the game, they already managed to won the next set, and now they are playing in the decisive set. clearly that got my spirit boiling again and this time around i stay back throughout the game.
early in the third set, they were down by five points. however, they managed to clawed back to 5 all. from there, the game became a very tight game, with both sets of players using every bit of skills they have to outclass their opponents. it was like watching zidane and figo trying to outdo each other in a skills duel. ok, that was overrated, i know.
in the end, the tendency to play fancy games in the malaysian pair cause them to commit a few fatal errors, which resulted in a defeat for them. really, after such a wonderful performance from them, it is a shame to ended up on the losing side.
however, from what i saw, i clearly belive that in them, we already found a good doubles pair, to continue the legacy of malaysian shuttlers. there still a long way to go for them, and they must make sure that they must get their mind setting right, or ended up like koo-tan pairs, or even worst, hafiz hashim. it will be a huge task to take on,but i believe they could do it.
so guys, be sure to watch when our shuttlers competing in kk this december when they took part in the final events of the bwf super series. who knows, any one of our boys and girls will be able to win something to cheer up the local fans.
malaysia boleh!! hahaha.. i feel very patriotic right now.
