My two favorite players
They are fantastic

[@ttime9947]

This match was so good!

[@ald7mEeEe]

[@askingwhyisfree7436]

red floor matting for me is the best color for table tennis.

[@LeaLMartin]

at 8:22 very good point :D

[@KoalaBear7]

such a troll lol

[@vuongtranminh6898]

Xu Xin will be number one on the future.

[@lucaslima4218]

Yeah! He was and I believe he will be again!

[@CertifriedRatBastrad]

Well... This comment didnt age too well...

[@DIGITALDREAMSSUBLIMATIONTIPS]

Awesome match...great effort by both .

[@calisthenics_coach_india]

camera angle superb

[@cocochocko3783]

6:03 in that moment you will know how Ma long great is WOW 😯

[@ubaidraza1165]

Ma Long has a huge fighting sprit.

[@paddle_smith]

I don't understand why xu xin gives so much table space for his forehand considering he is pretty good with his reverse penhold backhand

[@videoprasanna]

Demons, both of them! Good come back ML

[@Max-Op_11]

Fantastic, very fast game. Ma long and Xu Xin best China players.

[@Renat1985]

best games are Ma Long vs Zh J K (Austrian) and Ma long vs J K (the last World cup mens)

[@mohammadeskandari4385]

The red player has a lot of potential.

[@sphinxman90]

Not sure what they are saying or what language it is, but at about 00:18 - 00:20 seconds, it always starts Google Now, like if you say 'OK Google' on my GS4. Try It.

[@simonholz69]

German :D

[@joschilambo9071]

It is an Austrian commentator and the language is German

[@rninesaver8079]

5:42 Xu really injoy this game

[@user-zw5gu3ti2h]

1分56秒のチキータ左手ついてない？

[@rolandtan1176]

6:03

[@uleyzano6178]

I think they don't play for score. They just entertain. Perhaps they start compiting in the 7-th set.

[@trixmagic83]

The score counter at 10:41 is quite cute

[@christianadriananiceta2753]

hey she's also the one who Freitas argued with for calling out on his serves
Freitas vs Gerell ETTC 2015

[@CrayCow]

she reminds me of michelle from gta 4

[@user-ep4he9xo9f]

Хоть я и болею за Ксю Синя но должен признать что матч выдался шикарным, что не удивительно для китайский звезд, это не европа :) кек

[@anonymousjep459]

Ma Long's technique looks so much more stiff than Xu Xin. Grip issues much?

[@uchihamadara7248]

SH does usually is more stiff than PH because of lack of wrist movement in SH(compared to PH ofc)
I think SH is a more balanced grip

[@ramkumarsridharan]

I wonder why Table Tennis players don't congratulate each other cordially... Their post-game handshake is briefest, almost no eye contact... They are rivals, I understand, but they are professionals, shouldn't they be gracious in their defeat and congratulate the opponent whole-heartedly...

[@oleksandrboiko7667]

The amount of effort and time they put into training.. they won't be any bit happy if their opponent wins

[@wd9165]

You gotta understand these two know each other too well are best friends. At that point, the gesture does not matter.

[@watsonzou3059]

Ha, how can Xu xin defeat Ma long? anyway, a great match. thx.

[@HakkinenRUS]

Because Ma long is Better ))

[@llawliet7945]

Shut up xu xin is way better

[@thenewguy7527]

@@llawliet7945 no way

[@Mischgi]

Xu Xin defeated Ma Long many times, Xu Xin is better

[@user-cw1ck1nm9o]

Xu Xin played against God...

[@peterstill3760]

Young Xu Xin was really a scary opponent.

[@evgeniy_moscow_gooner]

9:20 illegal serve!

[@Terr0rMKD]

oh no

[@eric62451]

why is it illegal?

[@goowhite]

Evgeny Shumilin it looks ok. He was behind the white line of the table.

[@Richard-hv5cq]

Guy White he threw it starting at the white middle line and it moved horizontally like a foot to the left of the table, it’s supposed to be a vertical toss up. A lot of players do this sadly. But also he is almost definitely hiding it behind his body

[@TankNSSpank]

they should change the referee's uniform. it's really ugly

[@olaniyi570]

Rats!

[@ewooll]

Shake hand is a better technique than penhold. That's the bottom line.

[@notanut7839]

+ewooll I disagree. It just depends on the player.

[@ewooll]

NotANut I agree that Xu Xin is a top man, but if you look at the top 20, there aren't a whole lot of penholders, even less with the women's game.

[@notanut7839]

true. penhold is slowly dying :(

[@TTTTCJGKS]

+ewooll I think it's just the end of an era really, a new Wang Hao will likely rise up at some point.

[@ewooll]

It's possible, and we do have Xu Xin, who is maybe even better than Wang Hao ever was, but there must be a reason why 90% of the top 100 use shakehand. Although penholders now use the backhand, it is pretty obvious that it isn't technically as good as shakehand BH.
