Japan Open 2011: Koki Niwa-Song Hongyuan 

OMG, Koki is playing a fantastic game, he can block, smash, topspin, lift, w/e he wants without loosing his cool, love his over the table counter smashes, his footing is great!

koki is in my age and his one my favourite players

Wow Koki has great touch.

love koki's over the table counters

Where is song now..he has completely disappeared...

nice! thx ttprovider!

Jr world champion vs jr olympic champion. amazing match

Koki Niwa is a great player in the world in the future. .... I'm not Japanese.But I love the Japanese table tennis.

Koki Niwa got some quick footwork and a rather stable lob defense.

Must have felt nice for him to beat both the finalists of last year's WJTTC :D

Koki is in his form

BRAVO!!!!!

やっぱり強い...

i hope it will be like today :)

@MrTopspin21 you are exactly correct. His FH is going to be great. Watch his footwork and how he tries to setup his shots with his backhand.

koki grew! hahahaha

丹羽の打点の速さは異常 後衛でのプレーも上手くなってる 体が大きくなれば水谷にも劣らない選手になることは間違いない

@perniciousnc May be .. the second commentator is Peter Korbel.

Song's forehand has a hint of Wang Liqin in it, he is going to be a beast when he get's older and improves and obtains more pro experience

love how often the second commentator was clarifying the main commentator live Song's right hand is in awkward position when he does forehand loops, but good power for his age Thanks for sharing

Wondering how table tennis will be in 30-40 years?

koki is scary

ランキングが７０位から３１位に上がってる

Pure talent, Koki Niwa, should get a bit more power to proceed to the top. Anyway, he finally defeated Song Hongyuan and this is already a good point.

@simpanz OK, I stand corrected. I checked the itTV page and it _is_ Korbel. Wow. His voice in English is really weird

@AlanKarMom The British guy is considered the "Color," while the other is the "technical."

6:19 Koki is so small in front of Song

@AlanKarMom I seriously doubt that the other commentator is Korbel. Unless he caught some bad cold or changes his voice tone significantly when speaking in English, it's not him. His voice (at least in Czech and German) sounds different
