QF | MS | Kento MOMOTA (JPN) [1] vs. Viktor AXELSEN (DEN) [7] | BWF 2019

[@sernikpl2010]

This felt like a final match, well played Axelsen! He improved a lot in the 2nd game, it’s frustrating to see him play like the 1st game most of the time against Momota. But again, congratulations Momota, his quality against all types of play is superb.

[@しょう-z7q]

1:13:50〜1:14:20 I think this is the reason why Kento can keep up with his ranking of world no.1. This drop is supreme in this tight rallies.

[@gamechoi4242]

35:46 wth haha, that was classic from axelsen.

[@chrislai6691]

once again momota’s stamina is out of this world

[@1187624]

There's still Ginting tho

[@Duccuonghoang8410]

@@1187624 ginting is always out soon, there's no way he can match Momota in term of stamina, Momota's loss in french open was partially due to Momota's fatigue form after tournaments

[@doods20fer41]

In fairness w Axelsen, he fight & played so well this time around, unfortunately his best is not enough for the King of Badminton at present, Momota..

Axelsen... literally the only dude that has the balls to run off court to attempt to grab a new racket.... in a SinGles MaTch....

[@KeithHiew]

Farid Musbah Momota the only dude that can force him to use such desperate measures.

[@hidenmotif7097]

lol. lin dan has done it a few times

[@msfss7312]

These 2 are the nearest u can get to Lee Chong Wei and Lin Dan. But those 2 back in their prime are like god vs titan. Miss those good old days ☹️

[@yan5524]

1:21:30 The line judge called "OUT" even before the shuttlecock hit the ground???

[@xNatdanaiz]

It's not the voice of the line judge. But that voice was Viktor AXELSEN's.

[@vertie2090]

Axelsen has really manned up from those previous encounters with Momota

[@CheyChonTV]

Everyone has. Lin Dan is getting better too.

[@fireshow4288]

@@CheyChonTV If Lin Dan were 5 years old younger, it would be a lot easier playing against Momota. Unfortunately father time affects everyone. In 10 years, Momota would have the same difficulties as LD now if he's still in the badminton scene.

[@krishanrathi9119]

@@fireshow4288 Lin Dan game has improved a lot skill-wise, nowadays he has become a very tricky player, only issue is that he just got little slow.

[@KeithHiew]

Krishan Rathi you mean he won all those world and Olympic titles on low level skill? If anything I think he’s making more unforced errors in his game now compared to pre-2015. That points to a lower skill level instead of an improvement. You can’t rely on him to play a long rally these days, you know the error is coming.

[@krishanrathi9119]

@@KeithHiew I meant these days he is playing more trick shots, obviously his skills along with Lee chong wei were always better than everyone else.

[@ki3lt322]

Momota stamina and mental killed the Danish

[@TPerm-hj4sf]

Who else agrees with me, that Axelson’s smashes have a bigger preload action, easier to be read by the opponents. I hope axelson to iron that out.

70% Energy for Momota ⚡. Need to save energy for final tour.

[@LarsVonHired]

Axelsen has the skill to beat this guy, he just goes mental boom always, so sad.

[@MrWagermajor]

Daf this was not mental haha this was purely physical. He simply lacked the stamina to compete with Momota in the last set

[@paullord3549]

Occulent It’s not about skill, it’s about fitness. If Axelsen doesn’t win in 2 then his lack of stamina dictates that Momota will always win.

[@doods20fer41]

I think it's more physical than mental, u can obviously see that in Axelsen's face in that deciding set

[@hmken668]

not true. he is not good enough.

axEl en is loser ，no more strong er

[@Nichideutsch]

Japanese badminton has no future because none of its players can smash. All of them only know defense but not offense.

[@jordanchai7313]

I would rather have a better defence than a better smash. smashing doesn't give you the win but having a solid defence, you can always win. Because Kento has probably the best defence in the world, he's almost unbeatable.

[@Himmil-Hana]

You think only offence will bring the winning??? So noobs

[@jimw8615]

Ricky Ray either u are blind or no common sense.

[@kenou1818]

Good smash or a unbreakable defence? It’s stupid to think that you need to smash to win. Also Yuta Watanabe has a pretty good smash

[@quanganh9102]

Stupid ever or you never play badminton!
