[@emiiin1619]

Match filled with highlights! Amazing to watch

[@orlandoescobar5174]

Great angle! Really shows how illegal Jinbao's serve is lol

[@luccagabriel9038]

Lol o think the same

[@Splatersby]

Ehh most were okay, but agree a few were hidden behind his hand

[@orlandoescobar5174]

@@Splatersby Uhm, yeah, when he does side spin, it's fine. It's his reverse pend. You can see he hides it behind his hand

[@MrCooperscoopers]

@@orlandoescobar5174 yes, that's so obvious. On the other hand, take a look at Taimu's reverse pend., he didn't block at all.

[@slchang01]

The rules require that players need to toss the ball up in the palm (avoid spinning) before serving. Whether you block it intentionally or not with the other hand(not body) is of no consequense as the serving hand's motion will give away the serving types by the opponents...

His surname Ma only means horse. The character is 马。Mother and question would have different characters :) Thanks for the upload!!

[@LosAngelesTableTennis]

Thank you for the explanation!

[@chimyshark]

@@LosAngelesTableTennis yeah, it's not possible for his last name to mean the other "ma" like mother and question, there's no it could mean this, that, or that, the ma surname is always horse.

[@MrCooperscoopers]

@@chimyshark well, technically it's not entirely true. Lots of people in north west China also have surname "ma". And that "ma" doesn't mean horse. It is a shortened name of Muhammad. So if Ma jinbao is a muslim Chinese, his surname "ma" means muhammad. But if he is han Chinese, then you are correct, ma surname means horse.

[@MrCooperscoopers]

Where is Kou Lei ? Is he still injured? I like his play style.

[@LimoneneDaddy]

High level of play here

[@tabletennistips5232]

[@KANA-rd8bz]

[@tiyuxianfeng]

Itis cool

[@my_name_is_gonan]

5:08 perfect illegal serve. Both players should be ashamed of themselves.

[@freehoa9315]

both looked like illegal serves.

Hard to watch: too many cut, view angle change.
