Because Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei retired, so he didn't need to fight againse them and Momota also lose some of his skill, so he have more luck to win gold medal
@@theclimax4218 lucky? Lol you make me laugh even if LD and LCW still there iam sure axelsen now could beat them even 2019 momota have no chance with axelsen now ... axelsen completly diffrent athlete now he improved a lot
@MaxLui-mz9io Viktor has been number 1 for a while, and there is noone close at the moment. Even if he wins an Olympic medal in 2024, I believe he is not done yet. That us why I say Legend in the making, because he still has plenty more years to collect trophies.
Congratulations from Bolton UK. You deserve nothing but credit for this acheivment beating the 2016 gold medalist and now you know Vik this is where all your hard work went. The whole world is PROUD OF YOU. Well done son
He didn't wanted the bronze as bad as gold when he was fighting it over LCW. You can feel it. And Here Victor Axelson was giving his best. Miss them both LCW and LD.
I honestly don't feel it. Both performed awesome and had troubles with calls and nerves. They gave their everything, even when they made mistakes. LD maybe gave a few points easy in the end of the 2nd, but even then he needed the break, especially mentally. 3rd was LD giving his everything again.
@@abuqawiyy2488but he still trails behind by over 6 or 7 all Englands and world championships combined. He'll have to be consistent for at least 4 to 5 more years to catch up with Dan's achievements.
I guess, I should thank you for finally uploading this match?! Since I critizised you elsewhere for not uploading many full-time events from the Rio Olympics. AND mentioned this specific match as an event, I would like to see again! Thank you!
True but honestly he would not have gotten gold for world championships or Olympics if kento never had that car accident. Dude has a way better record head to head with victor if not for his accident victor would lose to him
Wow. Axelsen was very impressive. While Lin was past his prime, he still played well by his standards, and Viktor proved that he could be one of the greatest ever. I'm happy for the kid.
@Divine Blood yes. Viktor has won the most number of tournaments in 2021. He would've won the European tournament too had he not been disqualified after the semifinals due to corona.
@@Bones12350 offcourse because what are the condition in match nobody knows. Victor deserves bronze and he also prove it lol. If u asked lin dan that u want that Rio bronze then he must say 'yes'.
2016: He beats the 2012 Olympics champion. 2020: He beats the 2016 Olympics champion. There are patterns everywhere 😇❤️ Now, he has to beat himself to defend his title in Paris 😀
Lin Dan has won too many matches - on his way out after a decade at the top, Victor axelson has a gr8 heiht advantage. This broze medal must mean the world to him - he won against Lin Dan ( though not in his prime but still)
obviously this match did not matter much to Lin Dan, by far not to that extent to what it mattered to Viktor. Almost feeling with LD in the final stage of third set, where he clearly was given unjustice at 17-17.
Fun fact 2012 : Lin Dan won a gold, Chen Long bronze 2016 : Chen Long won a gold, Axelsen bronze 2020 : Axelsen won a gold, Ginting bronze 2024 : Shall Ginting become the next gold medalist in Paris??
Last 3 points lin dan was very unfortunate like his Semi where he equalized but was unfortunate again. What a player and what a sporting history fate had scripted for him. The one and only GOAT.
Lin dan was so upset cause every Axelsen Shots was always in line, Axelsen showed a lot of respect to Lin dan even though Lin dan was so resentful of Axelsen.
Who After he win gold medal against chen long 21-13 21-12 in Tokyo Viktor Axelsen The greatest Motivatiod Me The real champion but Lin Dan loss is also so vary vary sed......the legend 🤗😓😓😓🇮🇳🙏🏻
It's heartbreaking to see Lin Dan cry for losing a bronze medal even after winning gold medals in back to back Olympics. Viktor deserved the win though
Viktor has a great advantage of height against lin dan , most of the athletes who lost to lin dan are short than his height but Viktor is one of the few who is taller opponent for lin dan , the super dan 😮
