No one can be perfect even you are the best, this is not only the game of skill, stamina but also the war of mental and pressure. Ma Long has proved he could win himself when he faced pressure to overcome toughest moments through years. He lost against FZD, LYJ, Boll, Harimoto but immediately comeback stronger and won them. He kept every opponent in his control and that keeps him stay on the top for almost 20 years. That's why he is legend of legends, now he's 32 and the history of his adventure keep writing. . .

Jeoung said he studied Ma Long specifically for a month before the Olympics.

[@canicetang8837]

The best player in the World often have other gears and tactics. Best of all, Ma Long can adjust and he had the best technical coach in the planet in Liu Guoliang. He has been there before, knew the situation inside out. He was a World Champion, Olympic Champion and so on. In this match, he knew how to encourage and guide the "Dragon" back to his top form. All the early momentum by Jeoung was gone, everyone can see he was getting nervous, second guessing and making all those unforced errors. This is a great experience for all table tennis players to adjust and find another ways to win. Also to calm yourself to focus to attack on the weak side of your opponents. All those little margins you gain will be the difference between winning and losing.

[@glossary90]

Poor Jeoung this would have been one of the biggest upset of table tennis history. I bet Ma Long have never felt such pressure before. Super tense match with superb play not to mention the atmosphere which is a cherry on the cake. Too bad the olympic channel doesn't release high-quality footage even years after the event.

[@minus21334]

actualyl it's just malong not accustomed to his backhand at the beginning. and this match was lost because Jeoung forehand was too weak

@DannyDeVito Probably meant break as in he doesn't come back stronger

[@benthekeeshond545]

Believe me! He did. To be fair, we will gauge Ma Long in prestigious events. The world championship is the toughest TT tournament. Ma Long lost to Wang Hao 2 or 3 times. He broke or choked. I believe Mr. Ma was the #1 player in 2011 and 2013. Credit Ma Long, he adjusted in the latter part of his career and became the GOAT.

[@lancew8687]

[@benthekeeshond545]

That was one of the great matches. Mr. Jeoung played well in the first two games but he was the blocker, not initiating attacks and Mr. Ma was not as consistent as he should be. Blockers cannot win games or matches consistently. After that, Mr. Ma returned to his unbeatable mode. Then getting a game from Ma Long would be considered an accomplishment.

Wow! How do you measure strength? There must be a lot of players with a stronger backhand but can they get the ball in and win a point consistently? As of now, Fan Zhendong has the most consistent and powerful backhand in the world of TT. There are almost no one player in the world can oppose Fan's backhand and beat him. Guess what? For the last 8 years, Mr. Ma was the only player that can go toe to toe against Fan Zhendong and beat him consistently in both domestic and international competitions.
