Being a Malaysian and a fan of Momota’s it was feeling complicated to watch this match, at heart I wanted my home country to win it all, while hoping Momota can also lift Japan their second Thomas Cup in the end. Happy retirement to one of the greatest men’s singles players ever. ❤❤❤

What ?! 🤷
As a Malaysian for me it is a QF with mixed emotions with joy of Malaysia made it to SF after 8 years, but at the same time a tinge of sadness of Momota unable to play on his last Thomas Cup with his team went out. Kodai absence was clearly felt by Japan but the spirits shown by the Malaysian players paid off eventually ending three previous straight editions disappointment. MOTD - LJH with his confidence and morale recovery booster after painful loss from Chia and Soh earlier.

@@Zheheng82Malaysia IS the underdog. If you ask any fan from any country playin QF , they would 100% wanna play Malaysia. In the QF Malaysia is the weakest , it's Japan who didnt capitalize to drag Malaysia until 3rd MS. If this tie were to be brought to the last MS , Malaysia would most probably lost and this is coming from a Malaysian. So ultimately , Malaysia IS the underdog.
Japanese confidence of winning their 2nd single and double base on ranking and record but the Malaysian players played superly.
While i was glad my team made it to sf, but seeing momota unable to come out and play somehow makes me feel sad. Best of luck in his future endeavors after leaving the national team.

the second team for double players are getting more matured and confidence than before.. they have shown their positive fighting spirit and attacklike ways of playing.. congratulations ....
for the first time Team Malaysia goes SFinal after being underdog and out of sorts. Syabas now we see the light at the end of tunnel. Terima kasih kepada jurulatih BAM Dan pemain yg bersemangat tinggi . akhir kata harus perbaiki Dan persiapan mantap ke Olimpiade
For the 1st time Dinfei beat Sato Koga.. H2H 3-0 before this... Congrat team... Malaysia Boleh...
Goh Sze Fei’s backhand closed off Momota’s career. As a Malaysian, even though I wanted Malaysia to win, I just wanted to watch Momota play one last time.
Malaysia 2 doubles pairs are a force to be reckoned with based on the past 3 matches played so far. We can beat China in the semis, if all of them play to their full potential.
Let's go Malaysia! And missed opportunity in not showing Koga getting hit in the back by Saito and dancing around in mock pain at 19-15 in the first set!
😢Momota, Happy Retirement! ❤❤Hope to See you as a coach someday
Going into the quarter finals is a given but to the semifinal is something to behold. While LZJ performance was super but when our lead double fell, I thought that's it, cos our doubles performance is like the famous quotes from the movie Forest Gum " live is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you get" of course until you eat it. Fortunately, the piece of chocolate was a gem. Joon How performance was expected to fizzle out under such pressure as he did earlier. He surprised me with that solid performance. His win gave hope and inspiration to the second doubles. Kudos to them. For now the team should enjoy what they can, comes semifinal, it's a different level.

Before Thomas cup, i dont put much hope in the Msian pair. Even Rashid Sidek said that but now, Malaysia Boleh! Bring back the Thomas Cup !!
Koki let us all down big time. We wanted to have a proper sendoff for Momota..
LZJ beating Nishimoto was no surprise but what surprised me was the margin. In the 2nd single, Watanabe was totally out of form probably due to failure to cope with the pressure -- bearing in mind he had a convincing win over Li Chun yi . The 2nd double revealed that the Japanese pair was outclassed in terms of speed and net control... Anyway, see some promising players from Malaysia but the prospect for Japan was dim given the next generation still to come up.
An achievement to Semis! Fight hard bros because your coming opponent gonna be the real-deal. Nevertheless great spirit for all!
what a bittersweet advancement to the semis. i wanna malaysia to be in the sf but then i wanna see momota play with our talented justin for the last time. farewell momota ❤️
