2014-03-09来源:Xinhuanet

BIRMINGHAM, March 8 (Xinhua) -- Defending champion Chen Long of China will take on two-time titlist Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia in a repeat of last year's final at the All-England Open Championships here on Sunday.

Chen, 25, took only 32 minutes to beat teammate Wang Zhengming 21-17, 21-17 to reach the final, while the 32-year-old Lee, who lost to Chen last year, labored to edge South Korea's Wan Ho Son 14-21, 21-19, 21-15 after over 70 minutes.

"Every time I play him, it is always very difficult," Chen said of Lee. "I hope we can put up a fantastic match for the crowd tomorrow."

Chen has kept a perfect record against Lee since he lost to the Malaysian at the semifinals of the London Olympic Games.
