wow! Great match! Saive's backhand seemed better than I remembered. Great to see that Saive still has that fight in him.

[@lightmobile]

Win or lose, Saive always plays with passion!

[@alead1]

8 minutes of pure awesomeness!! Great respect to Jean Michel Saive!

[@chrissantos1877]

What a delight too see these two monsters playing in a totally balanced match! Every set is a surprise!

[@brahms008]

Save is a real last all-round player. All shots of the TT in one match ;-)

[@QuantumStates]

Oh has such a relaxed style. It reminds me of Waldner.

[@1TonyXX]

i love oh back hand and block... but much respect to Saive

[@bomb9er4]

saive is like a brute warrior whereas Oh is a silent ninja...silent and composed, and only strikes to kill when necessary

[@animaysh]

Saive had a very good record against Waldner. Waldner 26 Saive 21.

[@aerotus888]

Wowwww! What a brilliant and entertaining game! Can't believe I hadn't seen this until now!

[@uleyzano6178]

What a wonderful game it was just 14 years ago. How much TT has changed for the worse with all that 'improvements'.

[@brahms008]

JM Saive belong to the old ancient time where the variety and allround play (Grubba style) was the norme. He proves once again without strong speed you can beat the #14 World Rank mostly on double counter attack... A lot of points were lots by Oh on double counter attack from JM. Despite JM is now around 40 years old, it's nice to see compete as a whirly Spartian Warrior. Good Job !

[@okthanxbye]

so somebody finally made a custom short for saive eh?

[@gaborgeous]

i didnt underestimate saive cause when he was young he played very well, he even beat liu guoliang, but i didnt think he could maintain this shape nowadays, great play

[@JaxAkaJT]

i hate saive's habit where he hop when he receiving serve but still his a good player

[@satyajeetghosh6238]

Hahahaha wtf

[@pingpongerke1992]

saive got swaggah, i also like his Humour. You can see him enjoying every point of the match, respect

[@unpoulet6859]

pingpongerke1992 thats not humour, thats passion

[@billalphonso79]

i cant believe oh lost from saive...i would bet all my money on the korean before the match

[@rosun82]

Oh Sang Eun is just tooooooooooooo lazy. He has soooooo much time after the first backhand shot but simply choose not to go for the forehand kill...

[@Franke40]

wauw! didn't see this one coming :| the old guy's still got it :D too bad though, i favoured Oh

[@cuninou]

Jean-mi is coming back to the top! No I'm kidding, but he stays strong and consistent even if he is not enough agressive anymore

[@Stuffcakes]

My thoughts exactly. Its actually kind of poor by Oh. He is a top player after all...

[@irikanji7]

Gr8 match ... S. Oh awesome ! Oh with perhaps with a little more aggression may have claimed a few points saive ended up winning... ?

[@cmoknijmammee]

Spectacular match

[@powertompa]

Oh Sang Eun has a very relaxed play style.

[@pingpongerke1992]

Yeah, he still can pull it off. He's pretty old but he's the Best

[@MrRothhaendle]

incredible

[@funss]

grande saive, como siempre dando un buen espectaculo y ganandole a grandes figuras.

[@plot000000]

that's cause he is old. haha he can still play though

[@Detherocable]

an awesome win for saive!! and sang eun... omg what a control!!

[@badcompany2984]

Oh Sang hatte zuviel Hypertonietabletten geschluckt.

[@remydelange]

Saive always reminds me that "hard work does pay off"

[@lyrock]

I like Saive, not only his skills but also spirit.

[@albertoli123]

saive looks so damn old. ---> bad footwork

[@Tilt87]

you can see that saive has so much fun, great game!!

[@ttpetio]

Saive deserved to win!

[@TeHSamueL248]

If Saive had more power, holy shit he would be hard to play...

[@theswizzler]

He did have more power. Check some of his matches from the 90s.

[@braquemar]

@DouggyFresh619 Yeah that is awesome.

[@MartinWyatt]

Saive must be Ohs bogey man..

[@Sharkijitsu]

jean mi is a great fighter !!!

[@최군자-u1j]

오상은이 훨씬 잘치는거같은데 졌네

[@MrMagatoo]

saive tries so hard

[@DrAzTiK01]

Saive is the boss !

[@alberto6620]

saive is old

[@เฉินหลง-ฬ3ฆ]

WONDERFUL

[@MrChenweixing]

I like Saive

[@DKPOWA]

OMG! Never in my life I thought I would see Oh loosing to a player like this... He needs to be more aggressive or more witted, he just played to Saive´s rhythm :(

[@youflywithme]

CHO!!!!

[@tanxu]

great effort from saive. ohh is too passive now
