Thomas Cup 2008- Indonesia and Korea

Indonesia lost to Korea by 3-0. Do you guys think Korea did a right strategy by losing 2 of their games in the group in order to choose their opponent.. Hmpphh.. Anyways, Korea won Indonesia today.. Wanna what happened if Malaysia did the same strategy and play with Indonesia instead of China. But am glad that Malaysia didn't play that strategy and show their fighting spirit to play with China. Although they had a chance to defeat China, but they just couldn't do it. Haih.. Even though Korea show unsportsmanlike to lose all their group matches but I can't blame them, is the failure of the competition format. They actually play well today and do deserve to win the matches. Now the finals will be between China and Korea.

The results are:

Sung Hwan Park won Sony Dwi Kuncoro: 21-12 12-21 21-18

Jae Sung Jung/Yong Dae Lee won Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan: 21-19 18-21 21-10

And

Hyun Ii Lee won Taufik Hidayat: 21-13 21-14

rather surprised indon lost this time round. they are usually very strong in thomas cup.

malaysia is not very strong team ever since 1992... and maybe in 1996-1998.

Quachee- Welcome to my blog. Nice to meet you. I agree with you. I was also surprise that Indonesia lost. Even this semi-finals with Korea, I expected either Indonesia won, all they will play to the final tie to decide the winner. Haha
