Never thought i would ever see Axelson 'struggle' against an opponent ... LCW is really another level ..

[@reily-bc3uh]

oh absolutely, LCW is probably the toughest opponent Axelson has ever faced

[@xyzcv5]

@@reily-bc3uh even at 35, on his good days, I think LCW could beat any player of any era, although barring Lin Dan if he is also having a good day. But overall, old age and the building up of all the injuries make him have more bad days than the younger players, so overall, even now, Kento Momota still edges out in terms of h2h record against Axelsen, even though, in my opinion, Momota was not as good a player as Lee Chong Wei. I find that whenever Lee Chong Wei loses one-sidedly, people tend to talk about it over and over, like his big loss against Wei Nan, and Axelsen, as if "See? LCW is a fraud all along". As a badminton fan (I don't care about nationality, that's beneath sports in my view, I also don't personally know any of the top players), I always feel a little itchy when people don't recognize that LCW might have possibly achieved the highest level of badminton. It's a tragedy for me that such a great athlete gets as much disrespects from fans as he does.

Semasa di zaman kemuncak kehebatan Lin Dan=LD & Lee Chong Wei=LCW, LD pernah berkata : 'Hanya LCW sahaja yang boleh memberi cabaran sengit & boleh mengalahkannya. Pemain lain tidak dapat beri cabaran sengit kepadanya apatah lagi untuk mengalahkannya'

[@wisdomtales4739]

Axelson was helpless here..The biggest difference is LCW's ultra strong defense which basically tarnished any confidence of axelson to play attacking games by using his smash...

[@zachmerryweather805]

How come no other player can penetrate it except Lin Dan?

[@CoolNumber1]

LD is explosive smash, more like a caught off guard smash. VIktor too tall to be explosive.@@zachmerryweather805

[@pham1020]

​@@zachmerryweather805 Lin Dan has the best shot quality of all MS players, I've seen. May sounds not too significant, but with the fact that prime LD was a fast, consistent and powerful player, it makes a lot of differences to add shot quality to it. Plus LD was also one of the best readers of the game too.

LCY should be appointed as national Coach because he had a great game during his times. He can pass his experience as player under few coaches. With this combination, no doubt he can produce many talented players.

[@azad9294]

Beating a young world's number 1 at retirement age in a straight set is insane.

LCW is god tier level, the lighting speed is superb

[@barberismeable]

"People always said that LCW has GOAT footwork. Now, when I look closely, I understand. You can see how smooth and synchronized his footwork is. Viktor's is less smooth. It's like an engine with fully synthetic oil-when everything is smooth, he can move faster. That's why LCW can defend against most of his opponents' full smashes."

[@nelsonngu]

WE will never see another player like LCW soon. I wonder who is next to hold that LCW title.

[@lasmirandadennsivillia5048]

Axelsen improved a lot since then, but especially his defence looked way more nervous here in the 1st set.
