Don't Mess With This Dragon!

Congratulations to the Chinese team for their triumphant outing by winning the prestigious Cup for a fourth consecutive time and their eighth since they made their entry in the series in 1982. They deserved that win albeit receiving brickbats from some people.

Lin Dan, with a formidable combination of intelligence and determination, was not his "usual self" after he won his matches, hands down (against Taufik Hidayat)and that was a "real disapointment". And China's first doubles, Cai Yun-Haifeng showed their superiority and clinched the "all important" second point after a thrilling three matches! And Chen Jin, China's second singles, sealed the fate of the once mighty Indonesians after an initial scare!

Ater China's victory, there was a "wall of silence" in the Indonesian camp and their very vociferous countrymen fell into a dead silence. Clearly, the writing is on the wall! The Chinese shuttlers are supreme! This dragon breathes out fire! And who will be the next dragon slayer?
