I feel like Chinese badminton team trained Chen Long almost specifically for playing Lee Chongwei: solid defence to counter Lee's quick smashes (24:08, 21:53, 15:41, 11:02, 30:07) great backhand to counter/inject change of pace (15:43), higher reach for quick smashes for not giving Lee any time to break (28:32, 20:12, 14:00) Lee's only chances were 1) baiting Chen into attack/bating Chen into soft drops, this way he moves Chen around and mess up Chen's defence (11:04, 2:42, 5:00, 18:00) 2) to speed up and gain control of the front court (4:00, 4:29, 5:00, 16:35). He did try to speed up many times in early/mid game, but unfortunately for a man at age of 34, he couldn't keep up the full speed for the entire match. Chen also played a better base game, as Lee made many mistakes towards the end of game 1 (29:28, 31:25, 27:27) potentially due to tiredness from speeding up too early & a dreadful match with LD the day before. Anyways, this was a great match, and I am glad to analyze it after 4 years. Thanks for the upload.
Definitely agree with your analysis of Chen Long's style. It seems created specifically to counter Lee Chong Wei. He happens to struggle against some opponents like Lin Dan and Victor Axelsen even in his prime, but he was head to head or even edging out Lee Chong Wei, who was more all-rounded.
Hi, do you think that if Lee Chong Wei had not been tired from yesterday's match with lin Dan, he would have won? Lee chong wei won Chen long in the last 4 encounters before this too
@@JohnSmith-kj3jyHard to say. Lee made too many mistakes later on in the game, which to me it looks like he's tired. However, Chen had an upper hand psychologically from the start, as he was the reigning world champion at the time, and Lee had past his prime already
@@junlinyi4892 the way I see it is Chen long was simply playing some good, solid badminton. I agree Lee ching wei had a grueling semi final match, but I do not want to undermine Chen long's ability when it matters the most.
Respect to LCW....the most consistent player in Badminton, 3 consecutive silver medal in olympic and 4 consecutive silver medal in World Champs. All of the seven medals defeated by only 2 players, LD dan CL
@@GirlSmotheredToDeathwe all can see how many errors he made in the finals. It was his last Olympics, this was the 2nd time we saw LCW nervous 1st in 2008 Olympics final and 2016 Olympics. But Chen Long was at his prime in 2016 he was ruling like a king between 2014-2017. He deserved the gold But Lee deserved it more.
Badminton is an underrated sport. It’s so fast and so difficult it’s crazy that these people can react to a tiny shuttlecock flying super fast and manage to calculate the position it will be when they intercept it. All within 1-2 seconds! Wow.
I preferred him to Lin Dan from the Chinese stables. Lin Dan was too aggressive for a graceful sport like Badminton. Chen Long in his prime could frustrate any top player. He played the "Long" game well.
@@sugdesenats6007 I don’t remember asian game 2016, as far as I know Asian games held once per four years, if you are talking about Asian championship, it’s lower tier tournament.

0x olympic gold medalist 0x world champion Lost 4 finals of those tournaments to Lin Dan, 3 to Chen Long 0-7 vs them in the Olympic/World Championship finals
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...
Lin Dan and CL are stronger and better, if u re watch the matches above, the only close opportunity to LCW is Olympic 2012, but if watch closely enough, even that match Lin Dan controls the whole game, LCW was just responding fiercely. He never reached the best form of CL, let alone LD. I respect him though and wished him to win in his last Olympic.
Imagine if Lee Chong Wei matched Lin Dan in this Rio final, It would have been really epic. If Lee Chong Wei won, he would have gotten his redemption after so long and if Lin Dan had won, he would have upped his legendary status by being the first & only men's single to win 3 Olympic finals. Would have been a dream for us badminton fans to watch.
For those think that Chen Long got lucky: He's a 2 times world champion in 2014 & 2015, he has achieved gold silver & bronze medals in 2016, 2021 & 2012 respectively
@@HWD-7799 Only once, and Lin Dan lose. LCW already faced many times situation like that from China players, ppl just ignored it and say LIn DAN Chen Long is better than LCW
This 2016 men's singles finals and semi-finals is really top notched. All 4 are top rank players, no low ranking players. So it's really a match of the world's best. Getting the gold is no easy task.
Lee Chongwei/Li Zhongwei is a hero of both China and Malaysia because his a Chinese and a Malaysian. As a Chinese I feel sad that he missed his last chance for a Gold Medal but at least he get to beat his former opponent Lin Dan. His defeat made me happy and sad at the same time. Long Live Sino-Malaysian Friendship.
At the moment, I really hope that Dato LCW will get his gold medal. He was really on pressure. Either lose or win, he still on my heart. Love from INA❤️🙏
Lee Chong Wei ..may be you didn't won olympic gold ..but you won the heart of many of us in the world ...the badminton lengend with largest number of fans in the world ....LEE CHONG WEI ...
Lee Chong Wei doesn't seem to be very worried/serious about his loss in the final. May be he would have, if he had lost against Lin Dan in the finals. To simply put, Winning against Lin Dan in Semis gave him more comfort than losing the Gold in the finals against anybody.
he also said in an interview the year prior that he would be happy and satisfied with getting a silver in 2016. I think he had gotten over taking it too seriously like in 2012 and 2008

i really think luck wasnt on lcw side that day. or maybe he wasn't the fated one to win gold for us. there were just too many 50/50 shots that should have went lcw's way but they just didnt. when he played safe the shuttle didnt cross the net. when he played aggressive he missed. its like one of those things where he wanted to go aggressive but after a few mistakes, he was scared of going so much on offence and started play safe. so in sport terms, he started to play chen long's game. was just a really really unlucky day for him
Ridiculous reason. He lost in 2 games 2008, you could say he was young and inexperienced. But after 2012, where he was so close. He should have trained himself to disregard the pressure. If he could not, then he does not deserve to win the title. Chen Long were even younger than him and also had tremendous pressure.
@@yl6869 not as same as LCW's, not even close.. Imagine if Chen Long had lost at this match, people still made excuse of him because he was young and did his first olympic final (like LCW's first experience of Olympic Final in 2008), but how about LCW in 2016? 3 times of final.. with 2 defeat on result before, not to mention another fact that in SF he'd already won against Lin Dan who defeated him in 2 previous final.. Simply said that the public expected LCW to won the final no matter what ! We all surely know that every professional player like LCW should deal with the pressure, but we have to admit that (so far) no other badminton player has a similar case like LCW particularly in Olympic Match, so the pressure may be different than another badminton player ever carry
@@yoeltrianto1223 Chen long was 27 in 2016, that was his second time. He lost to LCW 2012, and he was a bronze medalist. And imagine people’s expectations on him when Lin Dan got taken out. China being the dominant power in badminton cannot accept their player losing gold medal. So if he lose, he will be doomed. LCW is just not on the same level with CL and LD. Facts
@@yl6869 CL just stepped into semifinal in 2012, so it means this was (2016) his first time reaching final. And as you said, CL was ever defeated by LCW in previous Olympic match, so this would even add more burden and public's expectation on LCW for winning this match. Then, no wonder if China also expected more on Chen Long to win the game. But i have a little bit of doubt about statement of China's domination in badminton at that time, even China just put 2 contestants in all sector's final match (Chen Long and Fu Haifeng / Zhang Nan) at Rio Olympic. Maybe the pressure on Chinese player would be bigger on Beijing 2008 (when China acted as Olympic host) or London 2012 (all Chinese got gold medal in every sector, so if one of them supposably failed.. Chinese people would blame him severely)
After all those years, LCW could be the uncrowned king though he won the heart of all ! huge respects for these legends. Badminton at its finest, indeed!
I had hoped LCW will be gold medalits in Tokyo 2020 before he suffer cancer and decide to retire from Badminton , but for me he still one of the best player in the world although he never gold medal in olympic .

I hate that CL never got the popularity he much deserved. For one, he is literally in the Tier of Linda and LCW. The rivalry between LD and LDC had overshadowed his presence. Even after landing 2nd place at Tokyo Olympics- adding another medal to his portfolio, He was still not regarded (by fans) as someone who is truly legendary (just like how fans treated LD) Haist ...... 😔

Feels really sad when watching the best player losing his last opportunity to win that gold .but it reaaly doesnt make him from what he is. The best player who will always be remembered
Lee chong Wei and Lin dan are the best rivals in the history of badminton, such a shame LCW couldn't win any titles, especially this one after winning against Lin Dan
Shame? 🤨🤨 Do you think he wanted to lose on purpose??? He just had a very physically and mentally draining 3 set match with LD just in less than 24 before of this... It's not shame for him to lose this... He just did all he could do from his side.
Lee chong wei have years of experience. More than Chen long. But Chen long still can defeat LCW😭😪 THANK YOU DATO' LEE CHONG WEI FOR BRINGING OLYMPIC SILVER MEDAL🥈 FOR MALAYSIA🇲🇾 !!!😢
Its sad how LCW was still probably kinda tired from his match with Lin Dan the day before. Was sad watching this match for the first time seeing all those plasters around him
How sad Lee Chong Wei tried so hard to win an olympic gold medal but he never did, he played #3 olympic finals but he never won, he never stopped trying and he should deserve an olympic gold medal🥇🥇
Chen Long get break for 1 days if I remember while Dato LCW only get 12 or 15 hours after his epic semi final match against Lin Dan....so advantage goes to Chen Long
lee chong wei did not play badly in this game. its just his stamina, focus and endurance are declining with his age. chen long made full use of his youth and firepower

i really think luck wasnt on lcw side that day. or maybe he wasn't the fated one to win gold for us. there were just too many 50/50 shots that should have went lcw's way but they just didnt. when he played safe the shuttle didnt cross the net. when he played aggressive he missed. its like one of those things where he wanted to go aggressive but after a few mistakes, he was scared of going so much on offence and started play safe. so in sport terms, he started to play chen long's game. was just a really really unlucky day for him
Ridiculous reason. He lost in 2 games 2008, you could say he was young and inexperienced. But after 2012, where he was so close. He should have trained himself to disregard the pressure. If he could not, then he does not deserve to win the title. Chen Long were even younger than him and also had tremendous pressure.
@@yl6869 not as same as LCW's, not even close.. Imagine if Chen Long had lost at this match, people still made excuse of him because he was young and did his first olympic final (like LCW's first experience of Olympic Final in 2008), but how about LCW in 2016? 3 times of final.. with 2 defeat on result before, not to mention another fact that in SF he'd already won against Lin Dan who defeated him in 2 previous final.. Simply said that the public expected LCW to won the final no matter what !
We all surely know that every professional player like LCW should deal with the pressure, but we have to admit that (so far) no other badminton player has a similar case like LCW particularly in Olympic Match, so the pressure may be different than another badminton player ever carry
@@yoeltrianto1223 Chen long was 27 in 2016, that was his second time. He lost to LCW 2012, and he was a bronze medalist. And imagine people’s expectations on him when Lin Dan got taken out. China being the dominant power in badminton cannot accept their player losing gold medal. So if he lose, he will be doomed.
LCW is just not on the same level with CL and LD. Facts
@@yl6869 CL just stepped into semifinal in 2012, so it means this was (2016) his first time reaching final. And as you said, CL was ever defeated by LCW in previous Olympic match, so this would even add more burden and public's expectation on LCW for winning this match.
Then, no wonder if China also expected more on Chen Long to win the game. But i have a little bit of doubt about statement of China's domination in badminton at that time, even China just put 2 contestants in all sector's final match (Chen Long and Fu Haifeng / Zhang Nan) at Rio Olympic. Maybe the pressure on Chinese player would be bigger on Beijing 2008 (when China acted as Olympic host) or London 2012 (all Chinese got gold medal in every sector, so if one of them supposably failed.. Chinese people would blame him severely)
Feel so sad for LCW.. he will always remember as the legend without crown..😭😭😭
After all those years, LCW could be the uncrowned king though he won the heart of all ! huge respects for these legends. Badminton at its finest, indeed!
I had hoped LCW will be gold medalits in Tokyo 2020 before he suffer cancer and decide to retire from Badminton , but for me he still one of the best player in the world although he never gold medal in olympic .
He is one of the best in history, man!
Yes
He retired as a professional player
@@gonthestoneageboy2707 a legend
Cancer? No wonder he looked so skinny, pale and No vitamin D, no sunlight on his skin at all.
chinese dude could win the gold medal but lee chong wei won my heart, won people heart, won the world badminton fans heart❤

8:12 brilliant strategic play by Chen long, Badminton players should watch that two shots Chen long planned..
Heart broken moments for every badminton lover 😭 LCW is Legend
Incredible to see and think How much sweat the players shed in one singles game!
I hate that CL never got the popularity he much deserved.
For one, he is literally in the Tier of Linda and LCW.
The rivalry between LD and LDC had overshadowed his presence.
Even after landing 2nd place at Tokyo Olympics- adding another medal to his portfolio,
He was still not regarded (by fans) as someone who is truly legendary (just like how fans treated LD)
Haist ...... 😔
how is it rivalry when only one guy won everything. the other is just a side character.
Can we just Appreciate Chen long
Everyone in the comment are in support of LCW
Chen Long just win the gold, but LCW wins almost million hearts
Lcw should against Chen long then Lin dan
@@zafrizulkfli4388 the winner the better
haha , even LD himself said once , he feel weird about LCW has more fans than himself ^^"
Reposted I feel like Chinese badminton team trained Chen Long almost specifically for playing Lee Chongwei: solid defence to counter Lee's quick smashes (24:08, 21:53, 15:41, 11:02, 30:07) great backhand to counter/inject change of pace (15:43), higher reach for quick smashes for not giving Lee any time to break (28:32, 20:12, 14:00)
Lee's only chances were 1) baiting Chen into attack/bating Chen into soft drops, this way he moves Chen around and mess up Chen's defence (11:04, 2:42, 5:00, 18:00) 2) to speed up and gain control of the front court (4:00, 4:29, 5:00, 16:35). He did try to speed up many times in early/mid game, but unfortunately for a man at age of 34, he couldn't keep up the full speed for the entire match. Chen also played a better base game, as Lee made many mistakes towards the end of game 1 (29:28, 31:25, 27:27) potentially due to tiredness from speeding up too early & a dreadful match with LD the day before.
Anyways, this was a great match, and I am glad to analyze it after 4 years. Thanks for the upload.
Two all-time legends battling each other for the glory 🔥
Chen long is a beast when it comes to defence
Feels really sad when watching the best player losing his last opportunity to win that gold .but it reaaly doesnt make him from what he is. The best player who will always be remembered
I was sad when I watched it live but LCW is still a legend and a warrior the pride of Malaysia he will always be in our hearts ♥️
Did he die
@@Tiff321v no he retired don’t u know that
@@audreyong3384 no I’m new to this sport so I didn’t know
Malaysian sport people very sad at this moment. true legend LcW
The golden era of men's singles...
I miss playing this sport....the wall in my room just isn't doing the trick😂😥
Bent u vlaming of nederlander?
Who is here after Viktor Axelsen's 2nd consecutive Gold at Paris 2024?
I guess LCW has drained most of his energy during semi-final against Lin Dan...
Unlucky for LCW
It's no big surprise for a 33 years old badminton player... esp. single
Agree bruhhh
Loser spesialist👍🏿👍🏿
@@88kay12 you loser
@@88kay12 bruh it's "S P E C I A L I S T"
Lee chong Wei and Lin dan are the best rivals in the history of badminton, such a shame LCW couldn't win any titles, especially this one after winning against Lin Dan
Shame? 🤨🤨 Do you think he wanted to lose on purpose??? He just had a very physically and mentally draining 3 set match with LD just in less than 24 before of this...
It's not shame for him to lose this... He just did all he could do from his side.
Lee chong wei have years of experience. More than Chen long. But Chen long still can defeat LCW😭😪
THANK YOU DATO' LEE CHONG WEI FOR BRINGING OLYMPIC SILVER MEDAL🥈 FOR MALAYSIA🇲🇾 !!!😢
27:48 this is chen long funniest Face🤣
Because every point is so precious in this match. You don't even feel sorry anymore when you win a point by luck.
so true.
Tears for winner 🫰 and tears for le Chong Wei ❣️
Badminton is so much fun to watch
No matter who is the winner....my all time favourite will be Lee Chong Wei😍
One of the fewest times I had my 💔 moment
Its sad how LCW was still probably kinda tired from his match with Lin Dan the day before. Was sad watching this match for the first time seeing all those plasters around him
Elite badminton player is trained to be able to play 5 or 6 intensive matches in week, so that is not an excuses.
I got Chen Long racket btw.. hahahhaha.. :) proud using it for more than 3 years now.. :)

How Chen is soo cool..
In his gold medal 🏅🏅 match
Lee zii jia is watching👀
@@green_day_2688 May be😂😂
Olimpic Gold medalists are all legend
How sad Lee Chong Wei tried so hard to win an olympic gold medal but he never did, he played #3 olympic finals but he never won, he never stopped trying and he should deserve an olympic gold medal🥇🥇
Chen Long undeniably is one of the players which makes badminton to fall in love with 🔥❤️❤️
Chen Long get break for 1 days if I remember while Dato LCW only get 12 or 15 hours after his epic semi final match against Lin Dan....so advantage goes to Chen Long
Chinese fans were spoiled by Lin Dan and Chen Long. Now we realize that's our prime era and Chen Long was so underrated because of Lin Dan.
Lee Chong Wei is the greatest ......in n out of the court ...... humble..... inspiring.... determined.... carrying the cross the the whole country...
2016 Olympics is the nightmare for Malaysia. Men single lose from China, men double lose from China, XD lose from Indonesia.
Chen Long gives all his racquets to the spectators. Awesome! 🤣
Respect for two country.from Indonesia 🇮🇩✌️
Literally goosebumps on his victory moment 🔥❤️
LEE CHONG WEI IS MY FAVOURITE 👍❤
Please add all badminton matches from Rio Olympics semifinals quarterfinals pre quarterfinals and group stages as well please please 👻👻👻
you can go to the Lin vs Lee SemiFinals vid by Olympics...there in the comments or descriptions they've linked all the vid u are asking for...✌️
I am Chinese, but to be honest, I hope Li Zongwei will win this championship.
lee chong wei did not play badly in this game. its just his stamina, focus and endurance are declining with his age. chen long made full use of his youth and firepower
Mantabb
Chen Long is so lovely
Such a good match!! Good job guys!!
It hurts so much 💔 to see LCW losing
Permainan yang super menakjubkan,,, keduanya memiliki kwalitas yg seimbang dan sangat menarik untuk di tonton,,kwalitas tingkat tinggi.
good jobs !!!
If only LCW win at least 1 olympic gold medal, he will be regarded one of the greatest
