Paris Olympics: 'It Was A Really Good Match, Learned A Lot From Axelsen', Says Lakshya Sen After Semifinal Loss
La Chapelle Arena: After failing to progress for the gold medal match in the Paris Olympics, Lakshya Sen termed it a good match against defending Olympic champion Viktor Axelsen of Denmark in the men's singles semifinal here at La Chapelle Arena on Sunday.
Lakshya lost in straight games 20-22, 14-21 in a match that lasted for 54 minutes. The 22-year-old shuttler had three game points in the opening game while in the second game, he started with a dominating 7-0 lead but failed to pull things in his favour as India's dream of maiden Olympic gold in badminton faded away.
However, Lakshya still has the chance to end his campaign on a high as he will take on Malaysia's Lee Zii Jia in the bronze medal match on Monday. He is the only Indian shuttler alive in the quadrennial event.
