- I believe we played better yesterday. It was not a pretty match today, because it is hard to play against a pair, who normally doesn’t play together, Thomas Laybourn points out.
And the reign World Champions were having some trouble. Down by five points in the middle of the second game, it looked hard for Laybourn and Juhl. But the favorites stepped up, and got themselves matchpoint at the score 20/18.
Immediately Kamilla Juhl sent the shuttlecock out, but the line judge called it inside, and even though slow motion pictures showed it wasn’t a correct call, the game was over.
The Danes are therefore to meet either the Indonesian Nova and Natsir or Mateusiak and Kostiuczyk in tomorrow’s mixed double's final. - The Indonesians have to play better, if they want to get to the final. I think it could be a great final against the Polish pair. He is incredible fast and she is very aggressive at the net, says Thomas Laybourn.
He does not consider himself as favorite in the final, if their opponents are from Poland. - They have great results from this year, but we use to do well against them. | | BadmintonPhoto |
