TOP-RANKED Lee Chong Wei won his fourth All England Open crown in Birmingham yesterday and changed his mind about it being his 13th and last visit to badminton’s oldest championship.
After swatting aside first-time finalist Shi Yuqi of China 21-12 hydro flask 32 oz wide mouth sale , 21-10, Lee said he will return to defend the title of his favorite tournament.
“Every year I come here I feel like I am playing at home,” the Malaysian said.
Before the event, he said this would be his last All England, then almost didn’t make it. He tore a cruciate ligament in his left knee on February 4 when he slipped on court mats in training hydro flask wine tumbler black sale , and wasn’t cleared until nine days before the tournament. He still played in pain and with the knee heavily strapped and yet, despite all the pre-tournament drama, sliced through his draw — dropping just one game.
No. 10-ranked Shi knocked out Lee’s great rival, Lin Dan, in the semifinals. He won his maiden Superseries final in Paris in October. But he’d been well beaten in his two previous matches with Lee and never looked like hurting the Malaysian in this final.
Lee outmaneuvered Shi hydro flask wine tumbler white sale , made him scramble, and smashed winners to his left and right. He was behind only once, by a point early. He won five straight points for 18-10 and an air of inevitability enveloped the final.
Late in the second, Shi earned a net kill to trail 10-18 but rolled right over his right ankle and needed strapping. Two unforced errors gave Lee match point, and the latter took it with a smash winner.
His fourth All England title tied him with countrymen Wong Peng Soon and Eddy Choong hydro flask wine tumbler blue sale , who won theirs in the 1950s when the All England was the unofficial world championship.
Lee didn’t retire after the Rio de Janeiro Olympics, where he won a third straight silver medal, to fulfil his dream of a world championship with his Olympic chance gone. He’d suggested the worlds in Glasgow in August would be his swansong, but at 34 and on a less-than-perfect knee, he remains a formidable opponent.
Fifth-seeded Liu Kai and Huang Yaqiong of China saw off Malaysian sixth seeds Chan Peng Soon and Goh Liu Ying 18-21 hydro flask wine tumbler red sale , 21-19, 21-16 to win the mixed doubles title.
" Argentina's midfielder Angel Di Maria celebrates after scoring during a friendly football match between Germany vs Argentina in Duesseldorf, Germany, on September 3, 2014.
ARGENTINA spoiled the party for world champions Germany by hammering the hosts 4-2 in an international friendly in Duesseldorf on Wednesday in a repeat of the World Cup final.
Manchester United's record British signing Angel Di Maria scored once and made goals for Sergio Aguero hydro flask wine tumbler green sale , Erik Lamela and Federico Fernandez as Argentina won their first game since losing to Germany in Brazil.
Andre Schuerrle and Mario Goetze replied but Germany were brought crashing down to earth by a ruthless Argentina display in what was Gerardo Martino's first match in charge of the South Americans.
Goetze's extra-time winner at Rio de Janeiro's Maracana on July 13 sealed Germany's fourth World Cup triumph and there was a jubilant, capacity crowd of 51,132 packed into the Esprit Arena on Wednesday evening.
Before kick-off the home fans got a chance to say a final farewell to Arsenal defender Per Mertesacker, record goal scorer Miroslav Klose and World Cup-winning captain Philipp Lahm.
All three retired from international football after Germany's success in Brazil.
Only four players who started the World Cup final were in the German line-up, with Manuel Neuer captaining the side in the absence of his injured Bayern Munich teammate Bastian Schweinsteiger.
Argentina's team showed just four changes from the last time the sides met www.hydroflaskwinetumblersale.com , with Javier Mascherano wearing the captain's armband in place of absent Barcelona star Lionel Messi.
Di Maria, who missed the World Cup final through injury, set the tone of things to come with a piercing run early on before Mario Gomez missed the first of a string of scoring chances that came his way.
Argentina keeper Sergio Romero stood tall when the Fiorentina striker was sent clean through and turned his shot over.
There was real quality on show when Argentina got the opening goal after 20 minutes.
Getting possession near the corner of the penalty area, di Maria played in a sumptuous cross with the outside of his left foot that left the unmarked Aguero with an easy close-range finish.
Toni Kroos fizzed a shot just wide for Germany before Gomez was again denied by Romero.
This time the keeper saved with an outstretched foot after Marco Reus set the German forward up inside the box.
Argentina always looked dangerous on the counter against an inexperienced German defence and di Maria, in particular hydro flask tumbler sale , was thriving on the right against Borussia Dortmund's Erik Durm.
Five minutes before half-time the former Real Madrid player again found himself in space and he had plenty of time to pick out Lamela.
Standing to the left the of the penalty spot, the Tottenham winger caressed a volley past Neuer and into the top corner.
Gomez scuffed wide on the rebound before half-time to howls of derision from the crowd and two minutes after the restart, Argentina went further in front.
Di Maria's excellent free-kick from the left was met by the head of Swansea defender Fernandez at the back post.
And just two minutes later di Maria raced on to Mascherano's through ball before cooly dinking the ball over half-time substitute Roman Weidenfeller for Argentina's fourth goal.
Schuerrle poked home from a corner after 52 minutes in a madcap start to the second half. Goetze, a second half sub, reduced the deficit further with a deflected shot on 76 minutes shortly after Reus had struck the post.
