“We were really encouraged to step up, step forward, and not be too low and late on the shuttle,” explained Lohau. “We also knew they had a lot of pressure as the reigning world champions. So we knew that mentally there was a big chance for us to play well and win here.”

“It is a lot of fun on court, you could see us smiling, even though at 19-18 we made a mistake… but we’re still smiling and enjoying the game, and this helped us a lot on court. There are really a lot of emotions,” said Lamsfuss.
“I know that at the end of the game, we are there. And I can count on Isabel 100 percent. I know she’s doing the right stuff there. And then it’s easy for me actually, just to be behind her and have her back,” he added.
