Lakshya vs Axelsen LIVE: Right from the word go, Lakshy looked little nervy, tired and jaded. The moment of the legs was far from swift and smooth.
The effect of Lakshya’s marathon effort to defeat Lee Zil Jia on Saturday clearly took toll on the youngster.
The 1st game was a complete one sided affair with Axelsen with his trademark jump smashes completely smashed out Lakshya. The Dane won 21-10.
In the 2nd game, Lakshya started rallying little better. But it was too little and too late in the day. The Olympic Champion from Copenhagen won the game and match 21-15 to win another All England title to his name.
