The captain, the dragon, the dictator, and the GOAT.
I couldn't say it any better. He's all of the above and more.
That you say is true
Back at 2017, there wasn't a single match where Adam didn't mention this in full. Fast forward to 6 years later, he isn't the captain anymore (cmiiw the new one is FZD), he isn't the dictator he used to be, but he is still the GOAT and a fierce firebreathing dragon.

Ma Long had a good workout. He's a great athlete. In fact, he let Felix win the 4th set, rather than Felix snatching the victory. Felix himself scored 8 out of 9 goals in the 4th set.
God damn whats with all the hate? Ma Long has proven himself to consistently be a top 3 TT player(pretty much number 1) for years. It shouldn't be surprising that he won. At the same time, Labrun is still young but still played well against Ma Long and has much more room to grow. Both are good, great even, but Ma Long is exceptional. No need to hate or downplay either of them.
Felix comes with a sense of belief, and he has recently won 2 out of 5 last time. Also he plays fast, and gives the feeling of disrespect towards the GOAT, whether intentional or not. Bottom line, when the fans of the GOAT see there idle being challenged, they will scream louder when someone like Felix comes along and threatens seriously the order of things. Make no mistake, he has every intention of disrupting the order of things in table tennis. 2 losses to the GOAT is not going to change that. What Im concerned about is his mental preparedness when the lights are off. He is already showing he can handle it when the lights are on.
What 'hate' are you talking about? Your a over reacting touchy-feely liberal.
'Disrespect'? In what way? Explain precisely how here is disrespect.
@@walterpoelzing9412 he has every intention but can he beat them is the grand question? I don't see him doing it before his 20s.
@@hillsideonly He can do it in 20s for sure He can still improve himself Like Lin
Great match from both. Ma long has still improved! Hes backhand is awsome!
Ma Long cool as cucumber, composed, methodical and clearly the superior player here. Credits to Lebrun for not giving up and snatching a set after being crushed in the 2nd and 3rd set. Same in the last set : he was overwhelmed but carried on trying until closing to 8-10. A very good display from both of them, Felix can see the gap and which aspect of his game he has to hone in order to get closer to this level. Ma Long is really the one the Chinese National Table Tennis team can count on in beating every foreigner 🙂
I think WCQ and FZD have a even better record against non chinese players.

The Lebrun brothers are just incredibly talented. As a Chinese I dare to say I have never ever felt there were any foreign players out there that can pose a major threat to the Chinese team despite there are indeed many other great players out there that can beat the a Chinese players every now and then. But with the Lebrun brothers I felt they have the potential to eventually dominate the games and take over from the Chinese in many various Championships.
🐱 Félix le rois des gaulois
Merci 🙏
Nah bro
Don’t give up Felix! With Ma Long it’s all the about the subtleness and attention to fine details. Ma Long can read you like a book within a very short time. It’s all about the mind games now (like chess but much more dynamic) when it gets to such a high level. Remember, you can only beat such a wise goat with wisdom (on top of all the skills package, agility, resilience and strong mentality that you have already got). You already did a lot in this whole tournament. And we all audience appreciate what you have contributed so far. We will keep supporting you!!! Good job Felix! 👍👍👍
Well said. Can I post this comment on twitter?
I think you're a bit oversimplifying the problems ma long poses to his opponents. For example, he is 35 but I find him to have better reflexes than 99% of his opponents and I include Felix on that list. Compare the speed of racket, the reflexes and the power of both Felix 's FH and ML's FH and you would really wonder who was the 17 years old between the two
Sure I don’t mind. Would I be credited for the comment? Or how does it work?
Dommage bien sûr mais perdre contre le joueur le plus titré de l'histoire n'a rien de déshonorant. Bravo Félix, tu nous as bien fait vibrer depuis le début de ce superbe championnat au milieu de tous ces grands joueurs. Merci à toi.
That's why. Ma Long is a man with a kind heart. Give him a one wining game to avoid humiliation.Merci bocu

I feel the sequence from 6-8 for Felix to 11-8 for Ma in the first set is where the game shifted. Felix was looking sharp but the GOAT turned it up a notch at that point and never really looked back.

Amazing game. Ma Long is tactically very strong
In Pai makes really the difference here, the French is panting at powerful topspin balls while the dragon is simply spitting fire from the whole body. Felix cannot beat the dragon, especially in rallies, unless he reaches that level of In Pai. Thank you coach EmRatThich for the valuable lessons you offer us
@@AthanassiosHatzis yes, you are right
Thank you
Even though Lebrun lost this match to Ma Long, I just love to watch him play. His ability to make incredible and often unpredictable shots with his panhandle style makes him the most exciting player right now. And what impresses me most about him is that he doesn't seem intimidated at all against any of these top Chinese players including the GOAT Heavenly Dragon. Lebrun still got a long way to go in terms of consistency and not making unforced errors against the top players, but boy he did make Ma Long work pretty hard for the win.
Amazing game by Ma Long.
Every lost is a big win for Felix at this stage....you need hardcore pain to forge the ultimate blade....Paris 2024 Olympics are coming ....
Spiritual vorbind,Ma Long este un Dragon.Felul meu preferat.Respect!
Finally a couple of full speed forehands from Ma Long. Just a few but they were clear winners. Use of a few zero-spin loops on both sides from Ma Long, using the bat angle instead of wrist spin, very effect causing an overblock into the net. Also a biting downspin serve that was disguised with a tall hop and some extra forward momentum so the backspin was harder to read. It's a risky serve because you can flick it, but it worked. Excellent match, closer than the final score.
I love your musics, especially Vivaldi, and so suprising to see you in table tennis matchs 😂
NICE MATCH ❤
Great game!! Felix is very young, his future is very bright.
INCREDIBLE VOLLY @3:15
love the way Mas coach supports him throughout the whole game
TBH, there is still a big gap between the two. I am dubious about the “he is only 16” sort of argument (people applied that argument to Harimoto too). What differentiates Ma Long from the other players is the level of consistency of his game, mental strength, and wisdom which do not automatically grow when one gets older. Harimoto does not play as well as when he was 16.
Makes no sense to say those things "do not automatically grow when one gets older", ofc it's not guaranteed, but of course you tend to work on those things throughout your carreer. You gave one of the rare example that was better at 16. Tell me which player in the current top ten that had their peak at 16 ? Answer: none.
The only 16 argument presumes that Felix has yet to peak physically. Meaning his body is yet to get to its strongest point. He's yet to hit harder and move his fastest
Do you even watch table tennis? Mima Ito and Hirano Miu are good examples to the front. Truls also didn’t play as well as he first came out. My argument is it’s much harder for one to improve especially if you became famous at the age of 16. Why? Because people start studying your game closely, and if you don’t reach the next level, you play worse when you got older.
Whatever. Ma is just gifted. It's called skills.
Felix is 17 actually
Je félicite les parents de Alexis et Felix LEBRUN de nous donner des joueurs de ce niveau.
This is the first time we see Felix LeBrun play but he reminds us of Mima Ito; restless impatience. A burning energy inside that is hard to control and contain. It pushes them to play fast and make a lot of unforced errors. If he can bring down this energy and set up his game more strategically, he will be hard to beat.
Felix at age of 17 has a very bright future.
What a duel bro. I loved it.
This Game was insane. !
There is a reason why Ma is the GOAT
Hello guys, what a palette do you recommend? I'm from CHILE, I'm learning table tennis, what do you recommend? I was thinking about a 7 star loki, what do you think? is it good or not?
Ma Long has an uncanny ability to put out even the hottest fires
Felix is coming for the throne guys
Un jour ça va le faire Félix, encore beaucoup de progression en vue 🙂
Félix a beaucoup progressé sur son coup droit, l'avenir est prometteur... hâte d'être aux JO (s'ils ont lieu car la colère gronde chez nous en France)...
Incroyable formidable La France a un incroyable talent
Tremenda paliza se comió felix . Ma long una bestia de jugador
TT is a little bit a more the game of nerve n mind in comparison to other sports. Ma Long has that control on his mind n nerve. A legend in making with consistancy.

Felix is one of the greatest talents of the sport I have seen. In this match, his potential flashed again and again but he is not enough consistent yet. In a few years he will show what he can achieve.
Très bon match peu importe le vainqueur, ils jouent tous les deux très bien.
Felix Backhand is insane with the Penhold!!! Just wish he would stop barking when the other one starts to serve. Disrespectfull. Glad he chilled down with it after 2 set Great game doh
Talking about respect while commenting from your couch... He's not "barking" but encouraging himself. Good he's not waiting for encouragements from Internet trolls...
@@iansmirna5183 He does it each time the other one stands and get ready to serve and LOUD! He never does it before getting ready to serve himself. He toned it down after 2 set and suddenly it wasen't disrespectful. You need to learn what "to troll someone" means if you consider my comment as troll.
Малонг папа в теннисе✊🔥‼️что тут ещё говорить. А очкарик ещё молодой
Malong tem que agradecer ao wang hao, depois de anos perdendo para o hao conseguiu aprender a jogar contra um classineta, mas o Felix tem muito ainda para desenvolver seu jogo. A olimpiada de Paris vem ai, então vamos ver os próximos episódios.

@@rockyshi9609correct he didnt give a game to Otcharov
Surgical Precision
Felix’s backhand is good but to dominate in this game, your weapon has to be the forehead. Naturally, the forehand is easier to control with a higher arc than the backhand. Surprisingly, Felix’s backhand is better but as most backhands, it’s weaker than a classic top player’s forehand. He needs to pivot more and work on his forehand counter loops.
Good point. You see his FH from 2 years ago, you will notice how much his FH has improved. But that's the area he needs to work on. When his FH is as strong, he will really shine.
Lebrun is a very unique pen holder, but still faces that similar fate as other pen holders that played against ma long
Xu shin did him before...
What do you mean? Xu Xin is one of the few players to be able to absolutely sweep Ma Long on a good day, he destroyed Ma Long in one match and they ended up having a full exibition point "around the world" since Ma knew there was no chance that he could win! I believe Felix has the ability to reach that level as well, but he is going to need to add a lot more variation to his game, mainly in the forehand. His backhand is amazing, the sidespin flicks and counters he can get are out of this world. But his forehand needs work, and I'm sure he and his coach know it. right now his playstyle looks similar to harimoto and Lin Yunju, with a powerful blocking and countering backhand with a strong flick, but a more passive forehand in the open ralley. Lin has made his forehand MUCH better, and it shows seeing as he has won the Frankfurt tournament. Harimoto just refuses to change, depite being stuck at number 4 for so long, and Felix just lacks experience, I know that he will continue to improve.
Ma Long gave the lessons to the both of Lebrun brothers.
And Fan Zhendong still need to take his revenge on Alexis Lebrun :)
Lessons?..They are both only 17 and 19. They will win big matches in time as Ma & Fan fade into the sunset. Robert at 68.
@@bobmalack481so no other Chinese star will rise? Like wcq
@@greatzto I never said that or even implied that. The POINT is the Lebrun brothers are young at 17 & 19 and are likely to get better in time to beat top players and win big matches.

GOAT doing everything for that men singles last chance at olympics
Good experience for meet the GOAT I hope one day he can win over Malong With pen hold style from European player So Chinese will consider to promote pen hold Style again.
He will win against Ma Long when Ma long will be 36/37 and no longer among the best chinese players. But the problème is he will still get regularly destroyed by the best Chinese players around
in the last point for ma long , he pushed the table a little bit while playing the ball, is it normal or should have been a point against him?
There's a comment about that just above. It should lose him the point, but this set wasn't disputed enough to try to discuss this.
Felix Lebrun is reminding me a lot of Wang Hao with his backhand more decisive than his forhand. I believe that Ma Long used the strategy when playing against Fan Zhendong, to force the forhand.
I don't think Wang Hao's backhand was more decisive than his forehand... But Felix's definitely is. A grip change may be required... Fingers spread along back of bat will improve forehand GREATLY...
@@shanelawson5072 You cannot change grip so late in your career, Felix has played 14 years with penhold, changing grip would be as difficult as starting to play long pips...
The next Wang Hao, NOT Xiu Xin who was a predominately forehand RVP player.
@@Wole58I don’t think he meant changing to shake hand. I think he meant changing the grip..
@@Wole58 Yes, I meant ADJUSTING his penhold grip... Not changing to shakehand.
Красный дракон!! Силища
Lebrun tried to downplay the dominance and prowess of Ma Long with his post game interview after defeating Lee Sang Su. He said he wouldn't mind taking on either Ma or Dima. But he clearly knows Ma has a proven track record over Dima, and he has never defeated Ma.

3:17 nice rally
Felix's BH let him down in this match, many BH shots did not land. His BH is good and fast but not spinny enough to counter Ma Long's strong top spin. He needs a bigger swing or a slight change of grip to improve his BH, IMHO. His FH looks good though.
This kid is gonna be on top for a while..2 more years he'll be taking wins off the top Chinese at a decent percentage..Just needs more explosiveness and power on the forehand and to improve serve return a bit..
I find the commentator is heavily in favor of Lebrun. Either he's rooting for the underdog or favors European talent. Whatever the case, no reason for bias commentary.
Lebrun style in holding the paddle allow hin to be quick in return but it its harder to control. It sacrifice too muchnfull body motion for the flick of the wrist.
