After watching this final, I got a conclusion: Nobody in any era can defeat this version of Lin Dan. Amazing speed and unstoppable smashes! Well-deserved badminton GOAT!
I was amazed how LCW handled the game, he was calm and even smiled at the game point knowing that Lin Dan would win the match. Lin Dan was absolutely dominating the match.
@@habibabukasim2030 i dont think Axelsen can beat LD at this time. Axelsen has powerful and accurate smash, really strong defense, but his net play is not even close to LD, and LD has everything Axelsen has
I miss them sooooooooo much...Without them, badminton men single became so boring. The two best badminton players, ever, with Dan the absolute GOAT: so many titles, 5 times world champion, and 2 times olympics champion. Love you GOAT.
Not saying he did not lost any game, when he really wanted to win, Lin Dan was simply unbeatable in 2006 to 2012 period. Lin Dan was not perfect in terms of techniques (no one can be perfect in all kinds of techniques), his determination made him the greatest player so far in badminton history.
I watched this game when I was living in Malaysia. It was at roadside restaurant with a dear friend whom I had just met. I had my first indomee double that night LOL. Was a sad night though cos LCW lost. Ended up living there for another ten years before I moved on. I miss Malaysia ♥
@@interestedingeopolitics prime in terms of when they were most skillful, rather than there physical prime. Even that is debatable, lee chong wei peaked from 2011-12, and his longevity beyond that was still incredible, staying at world #1 past 2016.
I remember Gil Clark saying she’s never seen a badminton player moving as fast as Lin Dan in this game. I haven’t seen it since then either. He was smashing drop shots on the front court 😂
at this time LD was far away from the gameplay today. No Momota or Axelsen is near to this performance. The Speed, Power and tactics are godlike. I hope in the future we´ll see someone like him.

people have their own opinion on who their GOAT is, we do not need your validation thank you. Past achievement is a great measure for success but people's varied definition of GOAT is something that you cannot argue with. I personally prefer LCW more but LD was undeniably the better one in terms of achievement. Nothing could tell me otherwise. People like you who criticize others for who they prefer is what's wrong in this world, have a great day buddy.
i dont think records are the best means to compare two players at highest level.....coz if you see the matches, you'll realize how close of a win it was for lin dan
You have to know that LCW got lot of pressure because he represents Malaysia while LD have no pressure represents China who always win title. But if you want to compare record, LCW have more winning record in badminton career compare to LD and LCW is the only player who hold the record of longest week as world no 1.
his coach says that what make lin dan different from other players was, lindan is a player who play like he see the game from above. he could control his opponent next shot most of the time. that's why he always play like he is walking during the rally.
I actually think it's the opposite Look at the last 3 or 4 points of this match He's cheating to the front almost every shot and then just uses his superhuman speed and explosivity to get back and still easily hit a smash. For 100% of other badminton players after cheating that first step, they'd have to hit a clear. He doesn't know where the shuttles going. He's cheating every shot so heads, he's going to play an incredibly early shot at the net Tails, he's going to jump back and smash you to oblivion. It's impossible to play against this version of Lin Dan.
You can tell Lin Dan had absolutely no intention or need to preserve his stamina at the second interval of the second game/final game because he starts to play doubles shots...
2012 seeing LCW lose still gives me chill.......... on one side he is most successful player ever (max superseries titles) on another he could not win gold in olympics, asian and world championship........ simply brutal
I think Lin Dan has prepared to face this event for a long time.. He was greatly deferent in this tournament.. He beat everyone easyly even the world no.1.. He smash every lob ball, as a robot who never tired 😯

This may not be the most exciting match in badminton history, but it is undoubtedly the highest-performance ever played in the history of badminton. Lin Dan seems to be playing doubles all by himself.
@@highsu7124 go and watch bwf tour match brother Lee chong wie always dominate normal tournament but when he play in big tournament like world championship and Olympic he always choke in final doesnt matter who is his opponent he always lose 😁
@@sachinshukla4512 I have watched most of ms and ws in all tournaments. "Lcw always choke in final doest matter who is his opponent" Thats not truth. Lcw was rank #1 or #2 since 2006 but his first final at worldchampion was in 2011. That mean he choke even in first round. How can you be Champion if he got that kind of weakness. At the end of the day, When lin dan won 5 WC and 2 Olympic compare to lcw 6 silver. A word "choke" doesn't explains it.
Not only the home court advantage, look at LIN DAN's speed at game 2, is that a human? No, that's a beast! LEE lost four points in the same place four times when game 2. LIN DAN knew his weakness is backcourt forehand, so he targeted at it. Find opponent's weakness and aim at it, this is what we called "match". Besides, the gap between the two's physical fitness was also disparate, you can compare the arm muscle. Before the Olympic match, LEE was the second seed, and LIN was the one. Maybe at that moment LEE could defeat almost every Men's Single easily, but 2008 Beijing's LIN DAN was never on the list. 2012's LEE Chong Wei was regrettable, but 2008 he had 0% possibility to win. Maybe my words sound harsh, this is the fact.
But the thing is we never see lcw in prime in a match with prime lin dan. Because lcw prime is 2016. He butchered every single player that year just like lin. His defence was unbreakable and his smashes and power went through the roof . Its sad we can never know the result of this match
@@sudeepkaur9293 Nah prime lcw is same a LD, they both same age. Lin Dan just slow down after olympic because he already has everything, that why LCW catch up. But the gap is still there.

I really miss the time when Lindan himself alone makes his own class and LCW is the top player of the lower class. Hopefully some day I can meet my hero in person.
This may not be the most exciting game between the two. But it was definitely a game where Lin Dan was on full fire and exerted all his advantages to the extreme. After the last ball was returned to the net by the opponent. Lin Dan jumped excitedly into the air, lying on the ground and covering his face with his hands. Then tears filled his eyes. Facing the coach who came to congratulate with a smile on his face. He cried loudly like a child between Coach Tang Xianhu and Coach Li Yongbo. The loss of Athens, the pressure and doubts suffered for four years have dissipated at this moment. The preparation seemed to be slightly insufficient, and Li Zongwei, who was in poor condition, lost the game. Li Zongwei did not appear particularly sad. No gaffe. Instead, he politely smiled and shook hands with Lin Dan to congratulate him. Lin Dan also patted Li Zongwei with his hand to express comfort and encouragement. Maybe this is friendship
His journey to gold in Beijing 2008 looked so easy, but when in fact that was the Olympic games, the biggest sporting event in the world with the best of the best competing, he was just in a league of his own.
Lin Dan was the fastest of all time moving backwards You can see his neutral position in 2005-2009 was an entire step more forward than anyone ever, including himself 2010-retirement That's why his front court shots were so devastating. And as we can see, he has no trouble getting back for smashes. Plus he seemed to have unlimited stamina. By playing this far forward he's moving around a lot more than his older self.

Lin Dan was the fastest of all time moving backwards
You can see his neutral position in 2005-2009 was an entire step more forward than anyone ever, including himself 2010-retirement
That's why his front court shots were so devastating. And as we can see, he has no trouble getting back for smashes.
Plus he seemed to have unlimited stamina. By playing this far forward he's moving around a lot more than his older self.
When he slowed down, he retreated to a normal neutral position, same as LCW or Momota's depth.

41:19 Im feeling really sorry for LCW, like LD was drawn to the net like a magnet

🥇🇨🇳 🥈🇲🇾 🥉🇨🇳
I became fan of Lin dan after watching this
I've rewatched this over 20 times, and here I am again in 2024
2024再次重看，16年过去了。
当年还单身的我，现在带着三个孩子每天去球场练球。
心目中的第一第二依旧还是林丹李宗伟。想您们了，怀念我的林李时代！❤
He won all the matches in 2008 Olympics with straight sets ..
23:24 beautiful play
Lindane has an absolute advantage in speed and strength.
I LOVE LIN DAN
ME TOO!
New players could never beat these players in their prime

LCW aged better but lin dan at prime is still the best
LCW special Runner Up Olimpic 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Love to watch LD vs LCW in any game, both are legend in badminton! as a malaysian,i still feels the tense watching this game as if i never know the result and hoping for LCW to win 🤣
2006-2008 = prime LD. He was simply unstoppable.

anyone will surely be Annihilated By this Lindan
I am back after the PARIS2024.
Just can’t get over this match❤❤❤❤❤❤
巅峰林丹，尤其是北京奥运会主场还有鸡血模式。两局李宗伟总共才20分，都不够赢一局的，不是李这场烂，而是没有任何人想在北京奥运会决赛打林丹，这就是人类羽毛球历史上最强的超级赛亚人😂
确实是超级赛亚人，发型都像😂
Greatest badminton player of All time Lin dan super dan The goat (2024)
I was still in grade 8 when this happened and remains my fav match since then
