@@TheCHRISTENSEN92 Yes, Zach, easy opponents, I’m sure you would also win against them ! That’s why you write this comment and have a gold medal I suppose ?

@@TheCHRISTENSEN92 injured but still beat Ginting easy ? Mysterious

@@TheCHRISTENSEN92 Stick to volleyball

Viktor!!! had ice in his veins the entire tournament. Congrats to Viktor!!!

He is lucky uncle Chen Long had already past his prime. In addition, Chen Long also isn't in perfect form during this competition due to blisters in one of his feet. This is like a match up between Axelsen [at his best] vs Chen Long at his 60% capacity. If Axelsen met Chen Long in his prime form, [2014, 2015, 2016] No way Axelsen would have beaten him. Conclusion: Axelsen is lucky to live in a generation of mediocre MS PLAYERS. HAHA

Huh? Those are just some minor beginner stretches to hold the racket.

That's just the warmup. The actual training you need to super set bench 405 without a bench into a strict overhead press.

you need those training for baseball lol them chubs need to lose weight

Honestly anywhere the shuttle was sent he'd smash it with some crazy power

he's like 190cm, height is quite an advantage

I feel bad for lee chong wei, he won three consecutive silvers, let's hope he wins in 2024 olympics

I think badbinton will eventually became all about Extremely tall players like 6.4Ft and above....... Volley ball, basketball, tennis ... Now badbinton..... Genetics >>> skill

@@munmunhazarika5247 what about ginting, rank 1 kento?

Kento ?

crying shows it was a terribly painful journey.

He deserved an audience.

Viktor is sooo coool..

They trained their whole life for this exact moment. anyone would break down in this situation

So much pain so much training. This is a beautiful reaction

Also greetings from Germany

Chen's my favourite Coz he got the best smiling attitude among all players

He has gold in rio 2016, so for this match he has no presure to win it,, even tou he want to win it

@@vanderpraast4938 You're telling me there's no pressure playing the gold medal match in the olympics?

@@ronald2042 ikr

Best I've seen in a long time, especially from Chinese players. I really turned around on Chen Long, really started to like him after seeing that. :-)

@@vanderpraast4938 you have no clue about Gold medal pressure amongst Chinese athletes. There have been enough reports on how Chinese netizens mock silver and bronze medalists. Just Gold, it has to be. Also, Chinese players are generally not this gracious and welcoming post their win point. Be it badminton or any other sport. Chen long and Lin Dan are among rare exceptions.

You think bronze medal is just ?? Getting bronze is also not so easy??

@@BroPro_123 For him Gold medal means lot more than the bronze medal .

@@pasindupansilu4477 respect all china,Denmark

Bronze at Olympics is a huge achievement

@@pasindupansilu4477 OG Bronze Medal is more worthy than All England champion

@@jakkeon546 That "chinese dude" already has the olympic gold medal from 2016, and has a couple of world championships, and was world no.1 for a few years. If anything, he's likely an inspiration to Axelson, not the other way around.

@Orenji Weirdo

Just because he didnt meet momota of course! But yeah he's truly olympic Champions

Chen long looks like he is injured though.

@@agungjanuar5434 Axelsen beat the guy who beat the guy who beat Momota… I almost feel back that Axelsen didn’t get to play Momota, because he would have destroyed him this time

I mean tbf Lin Dan in 2008 was an equal if not more dominant badminton run in Olympic history. Not taking anything away from Axelson but Lin Dan has to go up against Peter Gade and Lee Chong Wei in his run too. O

@@agungjanuar5434 Oh shut up!!! Inferior LZJ beat momota in QF all england 2021. How could momota beat beast axelsen?? I think axelsen will've been able to reach 2nd olympics in 2024 if he keeps consistent like this

Just an amazing match. I never get to see this sport

Badminton is also a very comprehensive sport that pursues speed. Although I heard that there are few badminton halls in the United States, I am glad to welcoming you to join badminton.

Me too.

🇨🇳VS 🇮🇩

he basically handed Viktor his gold medal, as he won in 2016, not that Viktor played bad at all, Viktor is a machine at this point, winning every tournament he competes in :)

@@mikkelbgebjerg1987 dont your words mean that chen lost intentionally

@@sahajpreetsingh2093 i know that i May Sound like that, but that is not what i meant, my comment is just poorly phrased, I Meant that Chen Long Basically gave his own medal( chen Long won the previous Olympics ). not that Chen Long wanted to lose.

Exactly! He was so professional while still playing. But once he won, he almost broke down. The rigorous training. Early morning practice session. Staying away from social media. Hitting gym. And keep aiming the Olympic medal for four years. And finally you get there. The emotion, the tears, the feeling!!! ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE!

it was a watered down version of Lin Dan vs Lee Chong Wei.

Goddamn You're hot, wow😍 Hit me up if You're ever in L.A.

@@jameswall1987 do you genuinely think that would work?

@@austinlogan4247 haha I forgot I wrote that. It's worth a shot😉

Cry😂😂😂

Indeed

Even without audience, Japan did an excellent job hosting.

And how much better would this be with commentators!

just watch 2013 bwf mens world championship final

LCW vs Lin Dan and LCW vs Chen were really emotional as well..

Viktor is sooo coool..

Heve u seen final women double?

It is! but you should check out the women's double that was uploaded recently.

Don’t forget the mighty Morten Frost and the magician Høyer Larssen

Chen Long became famous for winning the Rio Olympics 🥇

@@peekaboopeekaboo1165 now he got both silver and gold medals loll axelsen better get at silver next time so he can flex a gold, silver and bronze medal hehe

@@youngfigaro chen long got bronze at London 2012. So his medal is now complete.

@@siray4471 oh did he noice he got the full collection

Chen L might be famous for you but not match for Axelsen🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

And the world championsships in 2017 and All England in 2020. In fact, I would argue that Kenneth is a better coach than he was a player

Viktor is sooo coool..

I don't think that's the reason. He said in an interview after, that the reason he reacted the way he did, was because, his journey was fulfilled (at Tokyo) and just wanted it all out

Can you explain to me how he got that last point?

It was a painful and long journey for him

All yes great

Lol haha 🤣

Ginting gk kuat lwan mereka power smash, stamina ,daya jelajah tangan panjang chen long sama axelsen susah buat di hadang sjlipun menang 3:1 ..

Tak kan ada yang bisa mengalahkan axelsen, jikapun lindan masih dalam performa terbaiknya, tak kan mampu mengalahkan axelsen..

Aamiin

@@roadfood8608 yaila exelsen sering kalah sama kento momota, makanya di olimpiade ini kento momota gugur di fase group itu udah nguntungin exelsen banget, karna mnurutku cuma momota yg bisa menjinakkan exelsen

He also had an amazing defense and those forehand smashes were really precise and fast. There wasn't much chen long could have done in this match, viktor was just way better

@Rajashree Kar lee Chong wei is not a world champion gold medalist or Olympic gold medalist. But he still legend

@Rajashree Kar lee chong wei never got gold medal..but still legend

who?

You call it soccer So you most probably don't even what football is and the emotions goes in it

YES!

but still dominated by China and Indonesia following by Denmark and Japan

@Proud Hindu Yes India after Japan..

@@riduanapplebee Malaysia before India

I think Axelsen need sudirman cup too

He can bring that too💯🔥

Axelsen was also Junior World Champion in 2010.

All England champ too

always??? do you know death??? aging??? injuries??? retiring??? lack of interest??? While making it to the olympics is a great achievement in itself, your consolation seems just ridiculous!

@@wydadiyoun umm They were trying their best to make a consolation. However your unnecessary remark is what's ridiculous

Well, not sure if Axelsen would have won against Shenlong though! There was Chen Long on the court :D

Just shows his determination in focus to win gold!!

Yes

CUZ HE'S DA BOSS

because he met ez opponent not too hard except Chen Long which face many so pro opponent likes Lee Zii Jia, Ginting, CTC and others

@@zupmutado5612 why would that matter if he beat Chen Long, who you are saying is better as he faced better opponents. nothing changes as essentially Axelsen beat your choice of best player in the tournament.

Most of the sports venue aren't new and already bn used by their athlete....

@dwdogs11 can u tell me what they had done

@@Keanureeves853 There are 2 kinds of Olympics venue, build a new one or reuse existing facility. Tokyo is already super crowded and there will be no space, plus there are already existing usable facilities in Tokyo area so there will be a no brainer to build a new one. Cities such as Rio and Beijing build their venues in a concentrated point where the demand is not that high, hence, many of them are wasted after the Olympic since there is less users and the maintenance is high. (One of the reason why host cities build venues in concentrated area mainly not because there aren't any existing venues but because those venues don't meet Olympic requirement such as distance from Olympic village, capacity, and other requirements)

Japanese politicians aren't dumb like the Brazilian or Greek politicians.

It's Japan.. Did you see the Bed for athletes???? That is example

He is danish legend now..better tuhan gade and hayerloursen

I also respekt this athlet

Who is Chen Lee?

Who is Chen Lee?

Kind?! No way! C'mon! Lots of, if not all, the badminton players are really evil because they get really happy and full of joy at the opponent's faults and mistakes and try their best to make use of them! 😄😋 Also the game of badminton is a great deal about deceptions so trickery is very much appreciated and welcomed. Kind. Ha-ha.

@@valeriystar8570 妳的言论真的病的不轻！快点去看医生，吃药。

He was just overmatched !! Chen is not a chocker

his feet is injured

If u watched his previous match, most of his winning points come from unforced error from his opponent but he didnt get that from Axelsen... Plus Axlsn smash r too steep for CL defence, so he basically hv no tools against Axelsn...
