3 yrs later I still come back to this match because there's is no one right now in badminton who can play as smoothly as LCW

The key of his success : How he respect his opponent and how he treats his coach is amazing Like if you miss watching Lee Chong wei fight again!

I really miss seeing Chong Wei on the court. He is a hero and a living legend to Malaysians. The way he always kiss the Malaysian flag on his jersey whenever he wins a game will always be touching to me. Lee Chong Wei, uniting Malaysians the way our politicians can only dream to do. We miss you. May you be blessed with a great health and a happy life.

Coming back to this after watching the Sudirman Cup matches, miss DLCW so much

I can't believe this is the last match for Lee Chong wei😥 Thank you so much for Dato Lee Chong Wei

lee chong wei is like the fittest badminton player of all time. Still playing so intensively at the age of 35

Kento Momota has young age, power but Lee C W is a legend.

LCW last game before retired. At 35 years old. At the end of his career. He don't even give his opponents to take even a set. True Legend.

Kento must feel honoured to have played him last before his retirement even though he lost. This is iconic for lcw. I truly think LCW would have a good shot at the olympics in tokyo if the unfortunate didn't happen to him. He was in great form before retirement.

Imagine Dato Lee Chong Wei still can beat top form Kento Momota at his retirement age (as a sportsman). Remarkable!!!

I don't think I will ever be able to get over This Absolute Legend of a Man 🔥🔥🔥 Lee Chong Wei 😭😭😭 I miss him soo much

Lee Chong Wei is the No.1 all time. His attitude, norms, behaviour, and sportsmanship are just far far better than those of babyish other players. Lee Chong Wei will be there in the hearts of millions who love badminton most.

Saya salut dengan lee chong wei karna walaupun menang dia ga sombong,, semenjak saya liat kisah hidupnya penuh dengan perjuangan saya aja terharu,,sukses selalu untuk lee chong wei

When you notice that his first and last career champion all got in his country, it's really cool and touching.

Man I miss Lee chong wei so much. Lee zii jia is pretty good.....but he just can't replace Lee chong wei. Lee chong wei will always be in my heart and this match I don't know how many times I watched this ❤ 😭🥺

It is too clear that in this match, LCW overshadowed Momota in terms of skill and strategy. But at 13-9 2nd round, LCW is clearly tired due to age, hence Momota caught up. Thanks to his experience, he still managed to win. And let’s not forget, this is LCW at retiring age VS Momota at his Prime.

To me LCW is still world numb one. His way of playing is different and very high level game. His very rare to find in Malaysia.

Thank you Mr.Lee thank you so much for being such an amazing player, we love you!

I just want to say you’re the incredible the powerful the man standing for my beloved country Malaysia your name will never ever and ever be forget for the rest of your life! I wish you good health and you will be happy for the rest of your life ! Thanks !

LEE CHONG WEI BOLEH!!! Even Lin Dan can't beat Momota now but Lee Chong Wei managed to beat Momota in straight sets! He is truly a legend!

Let's give credit to both Chong Wei and Momota for giving us the best badminton match to date. This final was of such high quality and entertainment value that it had me on the edge of my seat for most of the latter half of the second game. Though each fan may have their own favourite sportsmen to support, let's be civil to one another and enjoy the game without insulting or calling each other names.

Thanks DLCW.. no one can replace this legend 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾

Watching this on January 2020, just admit that we all miss Dato' Lee Chong Wei on court 💓

1:17:00 One of historical ending of one of the greatest legend of Badminton in All Time... All Respect To DLCW!!

LCW is amazing. He is like Messi to me. The G.O.A.T. Unlucky not to win Olympics just like Messi never won WC. But man.. we will miss them when their time is over..

1:20:22 the moment everyone is celebrating and momota in a corner calm and sad and preparing to win the next year title :(😷😷

he might have endured all his pain, but he continued to fight until the end of the match. he was very extraordinary. One of the badminton dragon kings who will always be remembered throughout the ages

This is LCW's 65th international title....nobody has won more Super Series titles then him. He is also knowned as the king of the Super Series. Although he never won the Olympics ( 3 silvers ) and world championship ( 4 silvers), LCW has won 4 All England's and 4 World Grand Prix championships and was ranked world no 1 for a record 7 years.

Lee Chong Wei :like Lin Dan: Comment Let's see who is more popular

Why did i even watch this? I guess i just miss lcw so muchh 😭 I have always been proud of him as fellow malaysian thank you so much lcw for bringing our country to the top!!! You are a legend 👍🏻

Malaysian fans atmosphere is amazing!

You know LCW is on another level when you see Momota struggling against him. Great Match overall. Watching this again makes me miss LCW ):

Thank you very much LCW for telling me how fun badminton is from the time when I stated playing badminton.(around 10 years ago) I've been always your great fan and enjoyed watching the rival relationship between you and Lin Dan. I'm actually Japanese, but in this game as well, I supported LCW as you were my favourite player over the years. Thanks a lot for all the performance. Rest well and hope to see you somewhere. Probably in Tokyo Olympics if you'd come to watch.

Hope Lee Zi Jia learn something from LCW...He is only the very potential player to be no 1 single player in Malaysia

In 2022 still watching this ! Miss the one and only our legendary, DLCW 😭

Momota: I have similar style as LD, young and at my very best/peak. LCW: I fought LD at his very best, beat him in Olympics 2016, 11 times Champ at my own home ground, fought Taufik, Pete Gade, Chen Long at their peak, came back from Rank 200+ after my doping accusation went up to top 5 within 5 months and I'm gonna beat you at 36 yo.

Lee is a legend! Love from China!

LCW is still being the real NO.1 even 36 years old !!!!! When LCW is at the top , there is only one in the world who can beat him , Lin dan.

50:00 the reaction says everything

Rindunya dato lee chong wei atas court.:')

It's been really long time since I watched such high quality match. Very well played by LCW and Momota. And more importantly the spirit that they appeared.

I wanted to watch LCW VS Momota again in TOKYO Olympic 2020. It will not come true now . But I believe that Malaysia badminton players inherit LCW's legacy and spirit.

Kento has improved so much since then, also Lee C W is so goood, he beat km when he was 35

Came here again 12/01/2020 I miss dato play on court again..so Sad he must retired. Forever legend ❤

let's all hope Dato Lee will recover soon from cancer. KEEP THE FIGHT ON!

lee cw has literally outdone himself beating the japanese prodigy. tbh i was predicting K. momota would win this match considering his fearsome 2018 record. well played! glad to see him still competing on top level at his mid 30 age

Chongwei is controlling the whole match. Momota is just running everywhere on the court. Amazing control...

Lee Chong Wei has the best supporters 🙌🙌 listen to the crowd whenever LCW smashes

Sportsmanship to its highest standard. I have watched the match more than one time and it just continues to excite!

Not bad 35 years old playing at still best

It has been 2nd year of witnessing LCW's dramatic match to defend his motherland as well as to get his 12th malaysia open title!!! Always remember every 1st july to commemorate LCW as his last victory in malaysia open 2018!!!

Hope that LCW's spirit can be sparkled again in the badminton matches and unite us as Malaysian . Thanks our hero.

Never thought that this will be the last champion for LCW.

Thanks LCW, I started play badminton after I known your name, I like your style, I like your amazing smash. you are Idol of many badminton players in my country and also in the world. From your FC from 🇱🇦🇱🇦

Even though 5 years have passed, I still want to watch this match again because after this match LCW inspired me about this sport. Thank you, legendary Lee Chon Wei❤️

I was so lucky to live in DLCW era 😉

lee chong wei the living legend. So sad he retired, but i'll rather see him living healthily than putting his life at risk.

This was one of the best match I've had the chance to watch in a long time. Two very talented player playing in top shape (despite LCW old age). It was almost 2AM in the morning when I watched this live and the whole time I was quietly rooting for LCW. The only other time I felt the thrill of a match like this one was when LCW played LD way back at the 2012 Olympic game. The whole time I thought I was watching an anime brawl-out (think Prince of Tennis). Momota resemble the typical antagonist with the pimple under his right eyelid, and the thirst for a good game. And Lee Chong Wei being the main character everyone knows and love, playing at his country home at the age of 35, in front of all his fans, kids and wife. If you ask me, it would have been the perfect retirement match! Ps. Sorry, I watched too much anime.

Tengok balik tahun 2021 rasa sedih, sedih dlm happy MAS menang....rindu moment2 kemenangan dato LCW.. LCW is always idol in my heart forever💕

I miss DLCW playing in court so much, his sportsmanship 😭😭, and everything, the truly hero of Malaysia 🇲🇾😢

Only dato lee can make momota so tired.....

Had to come back to this game, thank you for a great 19 years and all the memories Lee Chong Wei!

He is icon for sports aggression respect motivation.. Brilliance.. Speed.. Technique... Simply all in one man Lee respect from Dubai

Big respect for momota..not arrogant at all 😘🇲🇾

Momota is not arrogant at all. He is just so cool and zen-like! He is the next Asian super star of badminton!

This Are No Doubt The Best Game Of LCW. I Watch it Again And Again , His Foot Work , His Skill , Gosh , So Amazing . We Are Going To Miss Him On Court. He is Definitely The Legend In Malaysia Badminton History.👍👍

King LCW❤️❤️...tears in my eyes what a man what a player what a Legend. Thank you for your services to this beautiful sport. Forever King LCW fan❤️

Lee Chong Wei always the world number 1 for me❤️

To me this is the best ever match for 2018. I have been watching it over and over again (why hasn’t BWF made this downloadable yet 🤔? ). Plus I’m super happy that Gill Clark and Steen Pedersen were the commentators for this match, they are the best combination.

Who's watching this after watching his retirement video?

Rewatching this. Lcw has done a lot of 400km/h shot in this match. Heck even his average speed is at least 350km/h+ smashes in this match. More than current matches I think. Miss the legend.

This match and the semi final match against Lin Dan, has to be the top 2 best games LCW has ever played.

Lee chong wei is one of the best badminton player of all time 👍👍 greetings from Indonesia

What a beautiful match, probably one of the most incredible I've seen ... two great champions ! LCW is legendary !

5 years later i was here again

Lee Chong Wei is teaching Momota the arts of badminton - you can't keep up with my speed and plays even if you're 10 years younger

Now, I’m still watching and felt so happy! Wish everything the best for him. Our Hero! Always 👍🏻

I couldn't found the match that are technical and excited without LCW. Love from Malaysia!! Happy Retired!

1:17:28 .. it painful for the blue shirt.

Awww Kingston and Terrance are so cute cheering on their dad!

All the love and support in the world goes to lee chong wei, but let's not forget about momota who, in no small part, help to bring his opponents to their absolute limits. I never get bored of rewatching this match.

A legend..... I love lee chong wei.....love from indonesia

came here just too see another brilliant performance from datuk lee chong wei..miss you legend

LCW truly is the GOAT of badminton

1h10min for 2 games! It was a battle!!! Well played by both players. Amazing achievement for LCW!!!

Not many can win over Momota nowadays..only legend like you can stop him..proud of you!!🇲🇾

Old World No.1 Vs. New World No.1 😀

Come back to watch this match again. LCW perhaps has the most elegant looking hitting motion n footwork. Momota came close in that department. Hopefully he regain his form n confidence soon that was badly affected by the accident.

Amazed to see Lee C.W. still playing at such a level after all these years. He simply outplayed both Momota and Axelsen in the Malaysian Open, and played with such confidence. Also noted a change, and in fact improvement, in his style since he teamed up with Hendrawan (probably my favorite player in the 80's) as his head coach.

This is one of the best badminton match I have ever seen. So thrilling.

Lee Chong Wei is a legend but Kento Momota is an amazing player.

I congratulate Kento Momota for playing so well against The Legend LCW

I so touched... LCW at age of 36 still perform well.

What a great match after years. Congrats LCW. Great crowd cheering for his tiger.

01.08.21 .. still watching .. i really miss DLCW on the court .. the living legend ..

What a way to end his excellent career! This match is so intense! Kudos to both players for this magnificent display of will and skill! It's very fascinating how LCW controls the tempo of the game despite of Momota's speed -- being a youngster in the tournament. I can't help but to be amazed, too, by Momota's prowess and humbleness. He got this inherent charisma that resembles to a champion. LCW will leave the tournament proud for his legacy will continue to go on for decades to come and for the youngster, the future looks bright ahead of him! He already resembles a champion I'm sure of it! He's gonna be the next rank 1 all over the world.

Great match to watch! The legend LCW vs 2019 best singles player Momota. Love to watch them play!

6:00 me preparing for a match 6:05 My friend getting ready, ezpz

I miss him so much 😌. My idol, legend. DLCW 🙌♥️

Always the best! Keep repeating watching lcw's matches
