Olympic medal for Malaysia


Malaysia finally ended their 12-year wait for an olympic medal when Lee Chong Wei defeated Lee Hyun-Il of South Korea 21-18 13-21 21-13 to enter the final and assure himself and Malaysia of at least a silver medal in the olympics, the match was certainly pulsating and filled with excitement as it was Malaysia's most realistic chance of getting any medal in these games. When Chong Wei won the 1st set I am sure almost all of Malaysia rejoiced but when he lost the 2nd game most Malaysians would be left biting their nails, but in the end Chong Wei redeemed himself to win the last set in style. It assures Malaysia of a medal at long last, what colour will it be only time will tell, but let's all bask in the moment,

6.30pm this sunday will be when Chong Wei meets Lin Dan for a stab at olympic immortality, can he do it??? I'm secretly confident that he could, but we will all have to glue our butts on the couch and sit back at enjoy what might turn out to be a momentous and historic moment for Malaysia.


Gold or Silver?? I hope it's gold
