The best match? Have you seen the Olympics?
After 11 years, no match is as exciting as this...... Legendary.
This is probably the best match ever in the badminton history.
The best match is Lee Cheuk Yiu vs Ginting
@@tatyeechan349 it was a good match, but no offense, shot quality wise, its not even close than this game
@@tatyeechan349 No, the best match is Aadit Jain Vs Aarav Ovalekar 2015

I keep coming back to this match. World #1 vs World #2, 43-1 vs 38-2 going in. Absolutely incredible.
Other than me, is anyone still viewing this in 2023? 😉
見てます😅
me
same
Almost 2o24 now
Best big game between these two legends
come back here after watching 2023 world champion; the pace, technique and power are not on the same planet. LD or LCW in this form in 2011 will destroy anyone nowadays.
True! These goats played at a way higher level than Kunlavut and Naraoka did for around the same amount of time. Only people that would even stand a chance against LD and LCW nowadays would be Ginting and Viktor
here i am in 2020, still think this is the best ever man's singles match
No doubt. This was the peak of human performance in badminton.
Actually
One of the best match in the history of badminton
En effet.
with a biased commentator.
Why Skilling the best
Best defense and best smash
Its the best match in modern era
i can watch this match over and over again........... what a match............ LCW & LD forever badminton gods............
Asiri Paranagama it's really sad to see them lose their former glory. Their matches are truly the most spectacular out there
Agree. Look at the speed of their movements..... just insane........
Me too bro
You stole my line.😂😂😂
It's 2021, still the best men's single match ever.
This is the most close time for LCW to win a world title ... He literally got the championship point ...
And did it twice but couldn't close it.
The camera man fell in love with the coach of Malaysia.
me too
Happy Retirement dlcw! Thank you for your great service to nations:(
One of the most exciting yet heartbreaking single matches in the entire badminton history.
LinDan is the best,no doubt about that..but my heart goes to Lee Chong Wei,he lost so many times to LinDan but he never gives up,he is a champion in my book :)
This wat make him so popular nw
one correction, chongwei once gave up in the 2013 world chapionship final, with a score of 17-20 to Lindan. he just quit the last point.
both of them is actually good. lee chong wei must be so nervous they both match point so many times but still lin dan win but chong wei never gives up. both of them is legend
.3
You can say that Linda’s read lcw inside out
Even though I knew who was the winner the last game always gets me, really feel for LCW but his mental strength wasn’t strong enough to beat LD. Amazing comeback from LD, saving 2 match points and won the title. Sadly these 2 legends are no longer playing, miss LD & LCW so much 🥲
Lin Dan is something more than a great champion...
Lin is a sheep with horns. Some cultures call that GOAT.
@@watchman835 xD i like
@@watchman835 😜
Whenever I feel low, I come to watch this game and leave pumped.
Xiong Xiong Same
come back here after kunlavut won 2023 world champion. this 2011 final is 10000x more interesting than 2023
This is the best badminton match I've ever watched and I've watched many since the 1980s
These two legends were truly best of the best. We're nearly into 2022 but this is still one of the best men's singles final ever.
Comes from Lin Dan retirement… I cant believe it GOAT Lin Dan…
Both players are absolutely amazing! LCW and Lin Dan kept making each other better throughout their careers.
I keep coming back to this match. - Final match of the most prestigious tournament (aside from Olympic) - Two highest seeded players playing against each other - Two highest ranked players playing against each other - Two greatest players of all time playing against each other, in their prime - Lee Chong Wei defeated Lin Dan in previous tournament (All England 2011) - Lee Chong Wei on a mission to snatch Malaysia's first ever world championship gold - Only one year after this tournament, the two met again in Olympic final when Lin Dan cemented himself as the greatest of all time (if not before this) - Very tight match, lived up to the expectation
Very well said. Too bad the Olympics didn't have a deuce, and the audio was weak. Camera angle also much more exciting in this match. LCW was very, very close here. He completely demolished Chen Jin (2010 winner) in the semifinals, and like you said, beat Lin Dan easily in that All England (worst I've seen younger LD play in a final, he didn't even attack much).
Same with me..
I love the way lindan hugs lee chong wei. Badminton is full of respect!
The best match in badminton, not one of!!! Don't say that Lee deserved the gold medal, no one deserves, you have to take it by your skills, unbreakable will, strong belief, and most importantly, by yourself! Super Dan won the game fairly, and this match had everything a good match should have, it deserves to be watched again and again! I really miss Lin Dan at the year 2011, young, good looking, inexhaustible and strong will to win! Hope Lin Dan all the best in the coming Olympics in Rio.
I think so
20:12
Can i just say you just said that lin dan does deserve the gold medal but you just said "no one deserves"
kevinwyf2008 I agree with you
@@justazir9990 Yes you can virtually say anything.
Prime Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei, what a dream match, hard to imagine they could play at these speed while looking at them now.
This is one of the match of centuries. Really really breathtaking, with really really tight game from two best player of Badminton... 🎉🎉🎆👏👏👍
Lee Chong Wei, thank you so so much for striving for Malaysia...Way to go...you did your best!!!...to every athlete, congratulations!!!...the results do not matter...what you guys did...how much effort you put in and the process of working hard is the best to enjoy...There's always room of improvement!!!..We can always achieve more to be better....GAMBATE!!!!!!!!!...^_^
I have watched this game at least five times! The best match between two best players! Really enjoy it!
I think Lee Chong Wei's reaction when he lost was very sportsmanlike. He lost a World Championship and he had two matchpoints, but he lost it. And after that he was only sad, but he kept his calm and stayed relaxed, and this is why the Asian players are good I think, because they are very relaxed when they are playing, and they can lose like a gentelman, and they can concentrate to the shuttle.
Lee Chong Wei is asian lol
This view of the court is much better than the standard top down view from a slight angle.. This is more up close and personal IMO..
The best match in history . Can't argue with that. Period.
LCW the fighter....Lin Dan the Finisher.....!
facts
27:00 SICK POINT
thank you, iam looking for this point moment for my whole life!
What is it?
I went to watch that match 12 years ago, and it is still the best one ever.
Lin Dan is the greatest of all time
He is getting old this year, not sure if he will be in 2020 Japan Olympics.
Exactly
I still come back and watch this match every now and again, in my opinion the most legendary badminton match in history , both players at the height of their powers forget 2008 and 2012 olympics this is the match that the two greatest players of all time had their greatest battle.
This and the 2012 Olympics final are the best matches I've ever seen
1 Hour and 30 Minutes of PURE Badminton
For me, the mighty Lin Dan is the greatest of all time.
The two legends badminton will never forget.
After few years I coming back again, miss u guys so much…😭😭😭
After over half a decade Lin Dan still made it to finals for WC2017. Lin dan is GOAT
Lindane become major players in the world 's only super badminton history. Lindane is the first time in the history of world badminton 's Olympic sweep ( 2008 , 2012 ) , World Championships ( 2006 , 2007 , 2009, 2011 , 2013 ) , the UK ( 2004 , 2006 , 2007 , 2009 2012 ) World Cup ( 2005 , 2006 ) , Thomas Cup ( 2004 , 2006 , 2008 , 2010 , 2012 ) Sudirman Cup ( 2005 , 2007 , 2009, 2011 ) , Asian Games ( 2010 ) , Asian champion ( 2010 , 2011 ) , BWF finals ( 2011 ) all men's singles champion and World Team Championship athletes.
19th World's Major Title until now(Individual&team)), Only one left to 20th World Title, hope it coming ealier in this year 2018 !
And 0,9M$ to 1,7M$ earning in LCWs favor.
双圈大满贯
2018 Thomas Cup and 2015Sudirman Cup
Денис Васильев. Because of all big titles such as OP, WC, Asian games, Thomas Cup, Sudirman Cup, World cup, etc. All those titles are winning for honor pride with no $$ attach to it. Lin Dan just happens to keeps winning those again and again for the 20 times.
Bestest singles match ever! Priceless Pleasure to eyes and senses! (p.s- commentators were biased, not giving lin dan his due credit)
This was a very inspiring video to watch! It gave me the goal of becoming a badminton player that could play against these type of players in the future. Love this sport !
Lindan's footworks are insane at this period of his career.
I watched the hole video and it was not one second boring ! Very interesting match !
Lux gil where is the hole? Lol
@@mrbeginner123 Good question!
12:51 "Lee has never won the Olympic title or the World title. Lin Dan has won it all." This just tells you who is the God of badminton!
It is explain that the top one isn't always the best one. LCW had been world number one ranking in many years, and LD more often in number two position, but in the end, LD had won 2 Olympics Gold Medal and 4 World Champions titles when LCW had won none of it
Who? Taufik Hidayat?
@@syauqimuhammadnurfikriisla3877 World ranking is overrated. LD chose to focus on the tournaments that mattered: Olympics, Worlds, All England. There was no point for him to add wear and tear to his body keeping up his ranking in small tournaments. At the end of the day people will remember he was the 2x Olympic Champion, 5x World Champion, 6x All England Champion. 28-12 head to head against LCW.
@@luf4rall agree, lin dan always shines in bigger tournaments that actually matters
LCW! The greatest beloved and humble badminton student of any badminton teacher !.
1:04:37 holy cow. Lin dans reflexes. He jumped to the perfect position to smash almost immediately after the shuttle left lee Chong wei’s racquet
I am more impressive for LCW because he was able to defend it back even Lin Dan was quick in smashing
Super Physical Ability
Lin Dan is like michael jordan.. His concentration ability is incredible. He reminds me of michael jordan who takes a cruch shot in the Final when Lin Dan was in the situation where he was losing by 1 point and finally win
A fantastic game of the best two men in the field of badminton.
Thanks for updating this great match, Wish that the match was available with other commentators though
Morton frost yelled when LCW serve at match point 20/19. " yah, its coming, its coming, ITS COMMING". funy he goes "iya ya ya ya ya" when Lin Dan smash and save that match point. Again when lee serve at 21/20, he was urging by saying "Come on". Morton broke down and didn't say a word for few minutes, finally he said " i have said all week and i will say it again. Lcw play THE BEST... overall. its just disappointing he did not win the title, he deserved this time". Lol Morton bias to the next level.
+high su- who cares about morton who ?...
Morten Frost was the one who excavated LCW's talent. Of course it is expected to not see him being neutral. Just like Chinese commentator tends to favor more on Chinese side when commentating and Indian commentator tends to favor more on India side when commentating. It's normal.
ramseyozil johnn chinese commentators was just to boarcast for chinese audience, same with indian one. They don't get paid by or hire by BWF. They are not the official bwf commentator. Morton frost and Gill Clark are the internationl one who hired by BWF so they should be neutral. Yes it's normal for him to bias. But it's just not right to do so, specially the whole world is watching. That's is why he looks like an idiot by saying lcw is the best even lin dan had just won.
@@highsu7124 could agree more. If Morten can not stay neutral, he should quit this job of commentating for BWF
I would take Morten's word had he been a World Champion himself lolz Sadly he himself won 2 Silvers lolz
22:20あたりのクリアの打ち合い後のドロップで決まったシーンは相手の足の状態を見て打つラリーの組み立て方の参考になりました。
Congrats to Lin! He has made the history. However, I respect Lee to the fullest! Lin won't be who he is today without him!
I've watched this final for how many times... Best match in history.
True
After so many years , this still the best game to watch, these are two best player in badminton game, I like both player but I am always a Lin Dan 's fan
So true! The best match in my opinion.
Yes, I was amazed by Lin Dan's courage to play without fear at such critical moment. On the other hand, when LD has a match point, LCW did not respond with the same courage. That's probably explains the difference between them.
After almost 10 years, this match is still the greatest. Even Lee and Lin themselves never reproduced the quality of this world finals.
Today still come back to watch this legendary match ,,11years no doubt still best match ever I watched ( better than Olympics game final 2011 is the best form between 2 player ,,super outstanding performance,, next 50years nobody can arhived this level
Lee Chong Wei lost 7 chances to win the World Championships and Olympics gold medal all because of 2 players: 1) Lin Dan - World Championships (2011 & 2013) and Olympics (2008 & 2012) 2) Chen Long - World Championships (2014 & 2015) and Olympics (2016). So sad for him...My badminton fighting hero...
True, imo he should have won against lin Dan WC 2011 and Olympics 2012. Somehow he never seemed to get that close to beating CL in the WC and Olympics but he would have been stripped of his championship in 2014 anyway. Tbh I don't really think the WC has held much value since it became a yearly event. These days it's much easier to be a WC winner than previously when it occurred less often. But he should have won at least one of each
that is amazing how LD focused on the match points
LCW seems to have these moments of lapse of judgement where he just goes with the flow of the rally which plays to Lin Dan's killer instinct. For example near the end he continues the straight net return, when Lin Dan is just waiting to pounce on it. Other times, LCW just lifts with indecision.
Just watched the full match again, so joyful! What a match!
Just watched it again from the beginning to the end!!!
The fact that LD and LCW is the best opponent of each other.
So heartbreaking for LCW. It really could have gone either way, especially the last couple points where the shuttle clipped the net. LD really has crazy focus to confidently save two match points and then win.
Now that I watched this again, I noticed LCW’s coaches displayed so much excitement at match points instead of trying to keep LCW calm and focused. LD’s coaches on the other hand, were ice cold and only displayed emotion after he secured the title
Some ppl just has slightly better nerves. Better composed under pressure. Even 0.1% makes a difference at this level.
2 legends... i miss them
Superb 1st game with a lot of electrifying intensity !.
Still watching in 2021..Lee & Lin is the best
U R ALWAYS THE BEST TO THE MALAYSIA DONT GIVE UP GO FOR IT ^^
2019 anyone
Neck to neck !. Both top fit and at their level best and their peak. Very close and Lin Dan is very very very lucky at crucial moment !.
Lucky ? He always does it, that's what you call champions mentality, nerve of steel. Always dealing with pressure.
i have watched this for god knows how many times, but everytime i watch i get nervous in the end even though i know the result, same with olympics 2012 finals as well, badminton and we fans are lucky to have you both :)
27:14 the best rally of all time nothing comes close to this
lin dan broke the string
The only difference is Lin Dan is master tactician and strategist. He constantly change the game plan into Attack and Defence then Base Line and Net let LCW to work hard to find answers. This is what Taufik lacks most and contributed to his downfall. He has the same game in 2012 as he played in 2004. LCW always wait allowing LD to take initiative. All credits go to Lin Dan for what he is. Keen mind , Strong , Fast , Orthodox(Diving) , Explosive and Aggressive.
What a contest 👏👏👏👏 both deserve gold…. But at the end winner is winner, well done Lin Dan ☺️ … love you both 😍
The best match in world badminton history
27:25 the best part 🔥
Lin D's victory @ 2012 London Olympics was amazing. He deserves the gold
My heart almost jump out wen I saw Lin and Lee and the first round best match ever 😱
Every rally is perfect in this match!
この試合マジで2人とも動きが異次元
Lin Dan my idol
legend both of them without doubt
GOAT from badminton.
It was so close for Chongwei to win a world championship.
its ironic that morton frost is so biased towards lcw but recently morton frost and lcw are huge enemies. "I will never forget what Morton Frost did to me" -lcw
What? What did he do?
The way Lin Dan saves the two match points against him is incredibly brave: cross-court defense and smash down the line, and then a clip of the tape.😯
Watched many times and still very interesting to watch.
Both LD and LCW might not be at their best form ever in this match. But this is the best men's singles match that I've ever seen.
+Quang Pham Lin dan's best form was in Olympic 2008. but this was LCW at best.
+high su I think LCW's best form was in the All England 2011. He defeated a good form LD. LCW was still superb in this match but he made more errors becuz he was more nervous compare to the All England final.
@@qdp-kt7vl LD was the one looks nervous , and peter Gade gave LD a hardtime in SF
As an englishman i apologise for the commentators,as much as i hate it every commentator seems to love the underdog,and dont give any respect to the rightful winner of games,it happens in football too, really frustrating
I think Morten Frost Hansen (the great Danish badminton player) is one of the commentators and he's biased here. He knows LCW personally
@@santosawidjaja this was 3 years ago so i have no idea about the context, and i believe you, im just pointing out the trend (which is still true) off english commentators being biased towards the weaker player/team

What a super duper epic match ! Once in a life time !.
