ITTF World Tour Grand Finals,09 Jan 2014 - 12 Jan 2014, Dubai, UAE. Men's Singles Final.
Xu Xin's attitude is truly amazing, he stays focused on the game but at the same time enjoys it like no one and keeps smiling and clapping for great rallies.
Just like waldner
That is the best thing about it. Enjoying!
Amazing way to finish it off with an exhibition rally, but Xu Xin too kind giving him the point.
Xu Xin is smiling throughout the whole game. Dude is really enjoying himself.
That ending though.. this is why I respect both Xu Xin and Ma Long as great ping pong players.
yes!
Table tennis. Not ping pong.
@@amarnathjv did you just reply to a 5 year old comment?
@@aei.u4383 hahahaha
And here we are, all replying to the comment made 5 years ago. Lets be frank here, no 1 gaf
Ma Long even went out like a winner.. true champion
How's that
simp?
@@mindrover777 Yeah, that made no sense whatsover.
I love how they respect each other , truly great sportsmanship
of corouse theyre teammate
これはもう神的な強さで 許昕改め、主神やね！
Pen-holder at his best. Aggressive. Superb short ball kills. Many great shots XX directed to Ma Long's forehand. Fantastic footwork. Awesome match. Very entertaining. Thank you for editing and uploading.
LongTimeTTFan true!
I used to think pen holders may reduce after Ma Lin... Many Chinese moving to normal grip. But this guy XX has taken it to a different level
This kinda stuff makes me wanna learn penhold. Seems like a powerful style that can still focus on control and technical play. That backhand is so wonky tho lol
@@raghus8746 The Chinese encourages Penhold players who meet the requirements in body type and athleticism because of tradition as well as more diversity of play for their team in tournaments and practice partners. It’s just few rise to this level to be one of the best.
@@godgunsandgoldens thanx Jim. Very nice insight...
This sport is unbelievable. That speed in even everything and precision. And the chinese have the apex of that sport. Pure art!
Xu Xin at his peak form, using his forehand to do 90% winners and ditching his backhand errors is the way of victory, well done!
ioriz yeah the new ball destroyed him
@@Kevin-zl3ci һэж6t65
Xu xin has now adjusted and has the best track record against foreign players of recentn
@@epic1053 ikr, the new ball actually destroyed ZJK. tbh western player adjusted to new ball pretty quick with no injuries, but chinese player took some time and most of them got some form of injuries during the process, with ZJK retiring....evil scheme by ITTF
@@vincenttran5920 bring back 38mm ball and speed glue
This is by far my favorite ping pong match. My two favorite players goin at it and showing respect and good sportsman ship to each other
Xu Xin Footwork > So Amazing
Benoit Britte Ryu seung min
Loved it. 2 of the best. Great entertaining match and good sportsmanship by the 2 of them
+kendalljazz Indeed
Xu Xin at his best!
2人凄い楽しそう。見てるこっちも笑顔になったんだけど。これからも頑張ってほしいな~
They showed what is called THE BEST PLAYERS!
Worldranked #1 player vs. #2. Both are very skillful and fast, maybe the best table tennis players the world has ever seen. Thanks for this great upload with superb quality.
What an epic final after so long. Great to see both xu xin and ma long in their top form.
Великие игроки!От их игры,получаешь настоящее эстетическое удовлетворение!
Thanks for all the uploads, much appreciated.
I always saw Ma Long as the most hardworking and ambitious table tennis player. After that match I can also say about him that he has huge respect for his opponents, because what he showed in the end standing there an aplauding together with the crowd is what I call true sportsmanship. Huge respect to him for that. And of course also don’t forget about Xu Xin‘s great performance 💪 What a match🙌 I absolutely loved it. That are two true champions 🏓
Great match and great production value. The quality is getting better and better: nice angles, slo-mo's and points. Absolute pleasure to watch.
One of the best matches I have even seen in my life.... wonderful !!!!!!
god these guys are amazing - just plain next level. thank you very much for the upload
What an incredible match, Xu Xin brought back the penhold glory back to it's peak!
One of the “classics” from our current era for sure! Quite possibly Xu Xin’s finest hour.
What a show... Thanks for the upload ttCountenance!!
superb performance by xu xin
Best quality ever, thank you TTcountenance.
Haha ... Ma long gave the ending a little twist by winning the exhibition point and then had that big grin afterwards. Like a gentleman, he gave the point back. Bravo to both for a great match!
They had a perfect play,every point.
this match will be the best of the year.
Best of all time.
Has there been a better match than this? I haven't seen the quality of the components or this level of play for almost two decades.
この試合のシュシンめっちゃ見てて気持ちいい
Wow, such a magnificent athletes! Incredible performance!
I love Ma Long but Xu Xin did really well this time
damn this video is soooooooooo crystal clear!! love the quality sooo much!
Thank you guys. YOU ARE SOOOOO AMAZING. PEACE ✌ 😇😇❤❤
この試合好きやわ
This is absolutely one of XX's best matches.
I have to say this video's quality is THE BEST i watched.....
Just liked this video for the high quality of the footage and of course of the superb playing of these two super players
yes
Ma long grande como siempre sabe como ganar y también sabe perder muy humilde mis respetos también xu xin que es muy bueno mis respetos a los dos
If you don't have at leaset two X's in your name don't bother
What u talking about? Ma Long is one of the best players atm...
Hmm so I'm just as good then? XD
xD
That's it, I'm changing my name!
xerxes would be proud
8.48 the best professionalism I have ever seen. Accepting defeat is a hero's act.
Lol even umpire didn't understand what happened at 10:3 in the final set
@@h4zmeister They switched sides since Xu Xin was one point from victory, but Ma Long made the point confusing the referees
@@h4zmeister I think because of the easy ball return from Xu Xin. Amazing thing to see at such championship ;)
Harshal Kulkarni they always do that. Theyve known each other for long, when the game is over and it’s match point, they do that and have fun switching sides. Here is slightly different because he won the point, referee was confused x) The easy return was because he knew it was over, he gave up, and they did this.
Timestamp?
Nice sense of humor and respect for the opponent and the ability to accept defeat. That characterizes the asian mentality in general.
Both of them are very good !!!!!!
この二人がまだ中国トップ層に君臨してるのが信じられない
夏バテ中草壁実 それな
Yes
一人がペン使いと言うのが尚更凄すぎる
この試合は何度見てもすごい
will still go down as the best match in my opinion. Both players absolute legends at this time
Respect! for them both!
8:30 best point ever xD Lmao
Nova 'LeBlanc' Kirishima truly was. Announcer was confused 😂
Nova 'LeBlanc' Kirishima but he didn’t get that point
Why would they give up
@@TheKillerZmile Team mates and they already made the final, as long as they beat all the foreign players they go against its all good
ISM Gaming 10-3 is too big difference to ma long facing such a good player like xx to make it duece
Iam just watching ma long from start to finish just to see him smiling , he always put that serious face in every match
Thanks KZhead, recommended it, beautiful
At 7:31 - Xu Xin used traditional penhold backhand block - rarely seen on him as he has fully utilised reversed penhold backhand.
-When the two of them play against each other i think it is always the most spectecular match to watch. The only one that could be a little more exciting is Ma Long and Wang Hao
when
What madness did I just witnessed? LEGEND
Einfach wunderbar! Vielen Dank dafür
シュシンが相手を褒めるとこ好き
Did anyone else notice at 3:44 Ma long changes his forehand racket rubber to red just to hit the high ball, such an amazing presence of mind. I know these guys are trained heavily but doing it in real match is really difficult. Really appreciate it!
It comes easily if you are a professional player , only amateur like you will be in awe lol
@@dheemz 🖕😡
Epic match! both players played well!
Two great legends in the world of table tennis. What an end! Without meaning, both understood each other and started the show going round the table. It was really so amazing. Ma long wanted to make fun, he ended the point for himself. The crowd was so excited. Then, he ended the last point deliberately forJu Jin to end the whole match. What great heroes.
Modern table tennis players really need to have everything a smashing forhand loop, a relatively stable backhand topspin, forhand chops, blocks, counters, a good serve, good ball placement, reading opponents movements and angles, good serves and last but not least a outstanding footwork to bring this all into play!
Wisstihrwas I guess good serve double the importance?
@@5566693 as long as the opponents return game increase proportionally i wouldnt support that statement...
Legendary match with legendary players
superb and mind blowing match ... loved it
5:20 That touch shot from ML is absolutely insane. It may not look as crazy as some other touch shots, but if you play table tennis at decent level then you will be able to tell how difficult that shot is.
Yeah, I could feel the brushing and touch of deception he used there, and from above the table on top of that, still sends me chills
Correct it's difficult one
最後エキシビションに持って行くの好き
Ma long is the greatest forehand player of all time Xu xin also legend who beats the goat
WOW... Agree, the ending is very respectful. Love both!
Beautiful to watch
have to reduce the speed to watch this game... damn
the real action is at 5:06, ;) but fr this is a perfect example of a player getting into the "flow" and relaxing to bring out top level performance, definitely not the kind of player Ma Long or anyone else wants to play!
An absolute masterclass.
Wow.. So definition Very quality
Talvez Xu Xin venha ser o maiso show man da estória desse esporte. Suas habilidades são espetaculares , sua movimentação é insana. Percebo algo no jogo dele que é a questão dos efeitos e das bolas altas. Ele gosta de usar demais esse recurso devido a plasticidade, porém contra Ma Long( O maior jogador da história) e Zhang Jike( o segundo maior jogador da história) ele teve q se adaptar e usar batidas de maior velocidade e menos spin. Xu Xin num dia inspirado pode vencer qualquer atleta
ttCountenance, in the future of your videos, please dont take a way last point in a set, and i think that im not the only want that wants to see the last point in every set. But great match and thanks for uploading!! :)
Yeah I've also noticed that >_< Thanks anyway for you uploads and the awesome quality
dfunkt Yea, that would be even better... I just want to see it all and as you said, the pauses between the balls is not important for me and just take time...
When xu Xin is in his mood it is his win always attitude / power /pen-hold / fast moving / invasion of all corners of table ..... classic
Beautiful match!!!
when two experts play, they dont make a single sound until the end
What's up with the dramatic music on the replays? lol
@@srt-fw8nhwhy did you reply to a comment 4 years before and still get 6 likes
Hi
I'm here because this was the first time I saw Ma Long played a match. And since 2014, I am a big fan.
Спасибо за игру .
Xu Xinの回り込みって無敵じゃね？
俺がいるから無理
Anyone watching in 2018?
Dont you mean 2019 😂
ttcountenance was the best channel of table tennis
KZhead recommended me BEAUTY 😍
Thank you for not putting a music overlay throughout the match, would have spoiled a very good match between two top players!
table tennis was 2x better in that era than what we have now
Unreal match, very enjoyable to watch. Xuperman flies
Im watching this in 2022 again and enjoying
打つコース全てがエグすぎる 高いロビングが1番打ちにくい
Xu xin at his best!!
This is a showcase. Amazing.
damn great both of them. gratz xu xin.
epic game
2人とも楽しそう笑
Ma Long is working while Xu Xin is playing) so nice to see them both at their primes, like two magicians.
Be grateful guys because we all can watch this for free.... it's really worth it to watch... amazing match for both xu xin and ma long...maybe we can't see a match like in the future...
許昕強すぎ
Oh my god xD. I had to laugh so hard at the point to 10:4 xDD. Awesome match and awesome quality as usual. Thx ttCountenance!!!!
wonderful!and amazing
The best part truly at the end-time, how respectful.
