We don't see matches opposing 2 blockers and counterattackers that often and that is refreshing! They played really fast using good placements and forcing their nature to attack all the time and striking the ball as soon as it bounces. We could just see that both of them clearly lacked of power hence their placement and blocking games. I wasn't rooting for someone in particular as they are both promising and spectacular, especially Kenta Matsudaira these last months but they did the job!
Kenta is my favourite player so gutted that he lost. But the commentator was a joke.. I think it's called the 'tomahawk server' not the 'squatting server'
Maybe its because(And correct me on this assumption if I am wrong) but the announcer doesn't sound American, which means they don't have Tomahawks over there which means they wouldn't invent that name for that type of serving there. Tomahawks being an American thing.

It was nice to see them smile at the finish. Geat match.
