I Paid Panda Pong To Review My Table Tennis Match (vs 1500 USATT Tricky Serve Guy)

On my road to get better at table tennis, I hired Mr. Panda Pong to review my match footage against Atul Rathoer, a 1400 player out of California, who I felt like I had an opportunity to beat but couldn't return his serve.
I paid my online coach, Panda Pong, aka Brian Zhao to review this match against Atul Rathore who I should've beat but had no answer for his serve and lost 2-3 in the U-1600 Round Robin at the 888 Silicon Valley Championship USATT Tournament.
Hopefully you enjoy this match review from Mr. Panda Pong himself!

Tournament tactics and practice match tactics can sometimes be different. Your opponent landed 2 decent loops the entire match. He can't attack. He can't even block well. He can only do 2 things : 1 - push well and 2 - serve well. Even if you had trouble with his serves, you didn't need to attack them hard to prevent him from attacking hard, you just needed to lightly block them back with a loose grip. You pretty much just needed to return them on his side of the table even if your return was weak. You were either pushing his topspin serves which of course will go off the table or you tried to hard loop his serves which often went off the table. None of which was necessary against an opponent like him.
When you're out of a tournament setting, you can practice stronger returns against good serves but when your opponent has such glaring weaknesses you don't need to lose the game on your own behalf before your opponent is inevitably going to do exactly that to himself.

Okay, can't really hear any advice in the review. So, your stance is wrong, take the right foot back to play a nice forehand! Then, learn a forehand push...you lean into that backhand so much, you really have to jump to play a forehand! After your serve stand (right foot back) in the forehand side...actually you can't do a backhand against underspin...the rest looks good enough to win some points! How do I know, I play myself, teach others and learn from better ones😀
