@@james1274 I won't take anything away from axelsen because he played absolutely spectacular that match, but Chen Long was already 30+ of age... and I recall he had a great blister on his foot that match Regardless of everything... I'd still take defense of top form Chen Long over defense of top form Axelsen
@@dukedave7 it's not his peak because he would have lost to his younger self by a lot He just happened to still be good enough to win gold in 2020, and probably in 2021 if he didn't have golf ball blisters, but that wasn't his peak anymore
Chen Long is alwasy humble and plays all his opponents as if he is the underdog and gave 100%. Great player and mentality of a true champion. He was really really good in this match.
i was watching this match live ...errrr ... over at youtube livecast and i was rooting for LCW. But no matter what LCW threw at CL, CL seemed to be able to fend it off. CL was truly untouchable and at his peak from 2015 - 2016 (and maybe 2014 too).
LCW's attack can definitely penetrate CL's defense if he play his top game like when he beat CL and LD in All England. LCW just got nervous and became passive during those WC and Olympics finals which is why CL defeated him.
Solid defense of CL.this guy actually ruined LCW title for any big tour after LD.for me LCW already got this WC &Olympic...CL is a new comer and not in his era
That's just an assumption. Even if LEE met LIN in the final, the greatest possibility was to encounter CHEN at semifinal stage, and LIN would mostly have an easy match to defeat AXELSEN (at the time he was not as good as today). Therefore, LIN would have plenty of energy waiting for LEE at the final...
Lcw plays good at start and when leads tries variety shorts not stick to basics so loses points and get nervous when other player leads and lost all the time or most of the times😂😂😂😂😂
Lcw u dont win games by defending, u have a good smash, use that, stop lifting and defending 90 % of the time, chen long was attacking all the time not defending,u have a good defense but most of time u cant defend chen long smashes so why u keep defending simple as that and your faster than chen long, use your brain lcw, u could won the world championship
You honestly think this? LEE was near the end of his career; and do you know what it takes to constantly attack? The answer is energy! Because he knows he didn't have the required energy to play this style, that's the reason he was playing the style in this game. Otherwise, he could have lost the match even faster...
Chen Long, every point you get on him is so hard. That’s why it is so hard to beat him. Truly a phenomenal athlete.
Yeah, he was just like the great wall of China on the court
No words, CL game was off the charts!!
Chen Long’s defense was just too solid in this match
"Great wall of china"
@@theonewhoasked9520lol. Axelsen’s smashes destroyed his defense like no tomorrow, watch Tokyo Olympics final

@@theonewhoasked9520 agreed people don't realize that Chen Long's defense was unrivaled during his prime era
@@james1274stupid axelsen fans here lol
While it was only about 30-36 months peak, Chen Long had as dominant a peak as anyone not named Lin Dan.
Well, I'd say his dominance is longer (at least from 2014-2021), because winning silver at the Olympics is definitely not easy...

Oh man what an impenetrable defense!
LCW vs Lin Dan China Masters 2007 pls
Viktor Axelsen vs Lee Zii Jia 2021 All England plsss
Ah Chen Long in beast mode would have destroyed everyone today.
Except lin dan

what a backhand from chenlong, so stable and aggressive
2:21 That's the LEE Chong Wei smash I have been waiting to see!
Solid defense of CL.this guy actually ruined LCW title for any big tour after LD.for me LCW already got this WC &Olympic...CL is a new comer and not in his era
The intro is just too long. Btw CL’s backhand is very good 👍
Even Lin Dan cannot easily defeat Chen Long. Their head to head won by Chen Long.
lin dan vs lee chong wei CHINA OPEN 2015 please
Chen long is only one player can shine and make his own name and level..Not in LD shadow..in his way between 2 goat LD LCW
what's the name of music in the video?
How did chen long comeback from 9-5 to 13-16 ?
Chinese coach know the pattern style of lcw..
2015 is prime Long year
Stop lifting lcw ifu cant defend cl smashes
some people said 2016 Rio , if LCW wasn't playing LD in SF , he should won the gold medal ....
Dogshit logic chen played victor who went on to beat Lin in bronze match so Chen had the harder opponent, cope he could never win 😂
