This is what is called 'GOOD EDITING'- as simple and accurate presentation as it can get. Edit- I didn't even realise this comment has got so many likes. Thank you people for understanding my thoughts.
@@dieselnation555 Thats normal my guy. Winning any competition/tournament is heart racing. Let people have their way. Its bad if they become unruly like being cursing or somethin
@@socringe2217 true that but the chinese let it go to their head way to much timo could mess up a serve and malong would jizz his pants an jump around like a kidengarten Back when i was in highschool i started playing ping pong im completely self taught and ended up being second best in the central area of the whole province and im the only one who recieved the gold metal for sportmanship the 1st place guy had his own ping pong room and trainer i could only practice when i finished all the class work and helped my friends on top of it just for the chance to play none the less he was a great player and neither of us got our panties in a knot like the chinese do it just makes me cringe hearing them yell "charlie" or whatever tf they say😂
@@dieselnation555 well i guess the only way to say that is in the comment section😂 there are stuff we gotta hide to not hurt others i guess. Well as long as you dont show that to others then thats fine 😆 also they say "chole" if u wanna know exactly
Timo Boll ein Meister des Balls. Wer so viel Respekt zeigt und menschlich bleibt, ist einfach Groß! Er hat jetzt über so viele Jahre die Weltklasse mit bestimmt. Er braucht niemanden mehr etwas beweisen!
Leider hat er nie einen WM Titel bekommen. Das finde ich so schade und tragisch. Er konnte lange lange mithalten. Aber dieses eine Quentchen hat immer gefehlt.
Ma is little bit faster and has better forehand. If it was only for the technique he would have won. But it's not. When the end comes closer, nerves start to affect the game and then it's all about how you can concentrate only on the game and forget about the points. In this stage experience is what matters the most.
Boll is much older and has a serious back injury since 10years. You can see it when he avoids forehand topspins from the bachhand side, or fast movement with his upper body in general. So he has to rely on his ball placement and overall tactics. When he was younger he appeard much quicker.
@@felixklopper7940 Waldner was a much stronger player than Boll.Boll is closer to Maze in achievements,a bronze in the WTTC in 2011 beating Chen Qi.Chen Qi is in no way a better player than Ma Lin or Liu Guoliang players that Waldner beat in the Olympics while being way past his prime. Boll has the greatest PR manager for sure and whole Butterfly/ITTF hype machine behind him,even the Chinese like him 'cause he never beat them in a major tournament and makes them look strong losing to players like Qi Yike in the WTTC.His record in the WTTC is pretty poor,before 2009 he had never even faced a top Chinese player,in the Olympics he hasn't even reached the quarter final.But yes,his coaches will always hype him as the best European ever to promote themselves,he is a product of German system,huge amount of investment with marginal outcomes.
@@dickn.ormous1064 closer to maze? Beating chen qi ? Why do you hate timo so much man? He has beaten ma lin on many big occasions (5 times). give me any other no Chinese player who has beaten ma long 4 times ! He has beaten every chinese at least 2 times except for fan. Did maze won any world cup? Closer to maze. Did he won 8 European championships? No body did besides him. Maze might be a great player but When we discuss greatest European players maze is not even in discussion. This is the 4th time i am replying to you on a boll's victory video in a DAY. Did he hurt you personally? Why do you go watch bolls videos and write negative comments? How badly hurt are you? Seems like some timo hater employed you to write these fucked up comments. Timo doesn't need pr. He is a legendary player been no 1 three times 2 times worldcup winner and record 8 European championships and many opens. 6 silver medals in wttc and 2 bronze. One silver in Olympics and 2 bronze. Defeating wang liqin 4 0 when he was most unplayable and defeating your GOAT walnder in ettc teams and single events.
A battle of tactics, that's how ma long lost his usual style, timo was so cool to adapt and make variations making his posture deceptive. Such a great match worth watching for learning tactics.
6:51 and 9:50 Brilliance by Timo Boll!!!🔥🔥 I mean returning Ma Long's forehand is a big deal! That guy is a machine! Timo did a fantastic job with his skills to give a tough fight to Ma Long! Hats off!!
You are always able to play what the opponent let you play. It has nothing to do with “normal form”. Timo’s play style forced ma long to do those mistakes. Timo is a lot more experienced and longer time in this business
@@thomasb4357 Agreed, Timo Boll played well which makes one think that Ma Long is not in good form but the reality is, this is what happens under pressure with a worthy opponent, one makes mistakes.
Timo’s backhand is just a killer, usually in tennis games u avoid ur opponent forhand, but when it’s boll u have to avoid his backhand, i’ve never seen a wonderful backhand technique as his.
Timo back hand reminds me of Federer’s backhand in tennis. They both let it finish fully without holding back. And its the most elegant thing to watch. I have been practicing it, its still a low percentage shot for me, but when it connects right, it rips off the table
Unbeliveable performance from Timo! the fast counters close the table, thats the only way how can counter heavy and fast top spins from chinese players! that was very exited to see!! in his age have so strong reflexes! Timo is very clever player and he surprise Ma Long with so many shots in this match:) Good performance from both of them but i think Timo deserve this win:) i love both of them by the way :) Wp Timo! #germanylegend
Philip Beyer Beside hitting the ball with your racket, your only allowed to play with with your hitting hand. If anything else of the body touches the ball, the point goes to the opponent. Your shirt counts as a body part and therefore he gave the point to Ma Long
Comeback king Timo Boll 🔥🔥 Unfortunate he has no singles medal at the Olympics. Only European who can beat any Chinese Olympic champion. His big fan from 🇮🇳❤️
In Chinese, Long(龙) means dragon and Ma(马) means horse. The name comes from the idiom 龙马精神. The moral behind it is to hope to have strong energy and improve their self
Timo Boll can generate lots of variations on his serves ,returns and shots that affect Ma Long's attention .On The other hand Ma Long is faster and consistent player .Timo Boll is only living legends who can defeat Chinese
