Tomokazu Harimoto vs Koki Niwa | 2019 ITTF Men's World Cup Highlights (1/4)

[@pham1020]

Never get tired of watching Koki Niwa plays even though he didn't win.

[@mohammadisa9728]

Honestly i like to watch niwa playing compared to harimoto. Niwa is so cool and he was actually having fun there. Mad respect for niwa. Rare talent.

[@tinminator8905]

These players are their polar opposites

We can get ball rpm's and speed but we still watching videos at 2004 quality

It's so nice to see koki actually try :)

Image Harimoto issued hiw own musical album... hard-rock at its core...

[@quinnbaker1935]

I listen to hard rock and I still wouldn't buy that album

[@Frizio]

Harimoto could make for a good source of green energy. All it would take is bracket-mounting an acoustic system on his shoulders, with the subwoofer right in front of his mouth, and connect the cables to a battery. He can surely generate a megawatt at every game, no less.

[@harvindersinghuppal2162]

I watched a junior tournament today with 2 kids doing the loud mouthed Harimoto impersonations, wow was it annoying. Which other sport would allow such unsporting behaviour, it could unsettle the opponent to the extent whereby it could be deemed as cheating!

[@Frizio]

@@harvindersinghuppal2162 I wholeheartedly agree.

[@aleron844]

Koki niwa is a good example for not losing your voice

[@lildavey09]

Noooooooooo, I wanted Niwa to win :(

i was like where austin at lol

[@travelator3035]

If Koki Niwa had power in his shots along with his creative play, there’s no use stopping him and would’ve beat Harimoto.

[@dickn.ormous1064]

His creativeness is overstated.His short game and serve is nowhere near the Chinese.He can win some points in desperate situations with the side chop block but that has more to do with his left handedness.

[@epic1053]

@@dickn.ormous1064 no one's short game and serve is anywhere close to the Chinese

[@bioinformaticsonline5988]

Short stature is not good for table tennis.

[@dickn.ormous1064]

@@epic1053 Samsonov's serve is too conservative but his short game is exceptional.I think his rubbers are quite tacky,that would make sense.

[@epic1053]

@@dickn.ormous1064 In terms of pushing/control Samsonov is exceptional, in terms of flicks not so much, he's one of the few top pro players to not use banana flick at all. And his forehand flick isn't that strong it mostly relies on catching his opponent off guard.

[@tonychan9062]

Koki do you know there is a straight line in table tennis?!

[@marcosmusixpcmusicam]

The mic on the net should be fixed: it produces an ugly sound every time the ball hit the net!!!

[@christianadriananiceta2753]

great performance by Harimoto... keep up the good work

[@thisisnotme2064]

Holy koki niwa played well

[@濵ちゃん推し]

Niwa has a special skill!!

[@emc8564]

06:53 that's why I love watching koki niwa play and Harimoto's answer @ 08:56

[@shenzhenpingpong]

Niwa can actually rally well, he tried hard to win this match, but if out of position, he won't bother to move back to the middle at all. Harimoto has much better footwork. Also, Harimoto's backhand block is so good, Niwa can't loop through him there, Niwa should've played some angles instead to find an opening.

[@ラフィ-w4z]

[@adrians3267]

So weird looking at koki there

[@chiholam8016]

Keep watching it again and again

[@keeganscott1061]

Is it just me who thinks harimoto has one of the best backhands right now?

[@berateyn]

He mostly blocks with backhand, if he would topspin too, you could be right

[@towningbranford5022]

Who else searched this up to see if harimoto would still be screaming his head off even against his teammates

[@robmarth2226]

How can Niwa stand this screamer boy?

[@에브리-y6e]

Nice harimoto

[@truberthefighter9256]

Again, my two favourite players facing each other early. I did expect very little quality: Last time, it was very painful to watch. Harimoto outpowered Niwa with his FH; the flow of the game was very bad. Now, they have played full risk. I love those games, where the players are hitting quickly. I love to watch them, I love to hit as hard as I can when playing at myself. (I cannot hit hard.) Very entertaining to watch! Nice! It is really fun

[@公司鑫榮]

張本的力量也大了,不再像過去只靠速度 壓兩大角的控制也讓對手吃苦頭

[@mahyarV13]

Niwa was perfect smart player he could win but his shots are too slow and Harimoto can easily return them!

[@976murphy]

koki niwa énorme fabuleux

[@magic_master8936]

6:57 I mean look at that talent, if he just trained properly... Man he would be a magician in TT

[@gordon8655]

Koki Niwa trains properly, according to the head Coach of the national team he's the hardest working guy of all of them.

[@theviniso]

Being nonchalant is not the same as being lazy

[@dickn.ormous1064]

Nothing spectacular,just a couple of crosscourt backhands.He just had more time to swing.A lefty with such short span will always be vulnerable to wide shots,even all the talent in the word wouldn't make much difference.

[@ぷりん-k2l]

この二人はいつも競るなぁ

[@quickzilver333]

I wanted Niwa to win so that I don't have to listen Harimoto Screaming.

[@dave2706]

Richardson Prucien nah hes right. Harimoto is annoying, i can understand screaming once in a while but harimoto fucking screams every fucking time. Its not being fragile, its literally called "stating the obvious"

[@rotatorful]

Harimoto deserved it cause he wanted it more than Niwa. Besides his forehand has improved a lot

[@bluecatsss]

1:46 10:55 神技(命中率8％w

[@TheLethal99]

Harimoto deserved to win

[@MalKediler]

Everyone wanted Koki Niwa to win because everyone wanted Harimoto to lose

[@gigacat1703]

or they just like Koki and his unique playing style, and the thought of such an entertaining style in a world cup finals is very interesting to people, not everyone is that bitter

[@MalKediler]

@@gigacat1703 Yea thats a factor too but in my opinion main reason was the annoying sounds that was coming from that little boi

[@calebwee328]

Niwa looks like he's not even trying lol

[@bioinformaticsonline5988]

Chinese fans cheered for Koki Niwa, who would have been an easier opponent for MaLong.

[@wd9165]

That's not the reason. Some of them really hate Harimoto and Koki Niwa is probably the most popular Japanese player in China right now.

[@dariogutierrez6716]

Epic. These matches are the best

[@aim372]

Very fast table tennis.

[@MrKorvin77]

13:59 - Possessed??

[@kavinxavier4552]

You can tell Harimoto has a lot of respect for his teammate. Great match

why is harimoto so excited for this win? why not show more humbleness in front of Niwa, his senior?

[@creepkafka4832]

His choles are getting louder man, they need to give him some warning about it. No doubt about his play but it's obviously disturbing for the opponent. I wish it was Koki against Ma Long. Rip ears.

[@timmyaz7112]

He shouts after the point is finished so it is your problem to get disturbed . You need to shut him up by winning the game :)

What is Harimoto yelling? Can someone write out the Japanese that he's saying? As annoying as it is to hear him after each point yelling, I'm learning the language and I'm curious. :-)

[@theorrb1846]

In dont think its japanese its probably Chinese cause TT Players around the world also sometimes yell that even Timo Boll but Not After every Single point

[@timmyaz7112]
