European Championships: Timo Boll-Patrick Baum

2010 Liebherr European Table Tennis Championships 11 - 19 September in Ostrava, Czech Republic. Men's Singles Final.

[@hubfred]

Gotta love Schlager at 9:33. It seems as if he is enjoying just anything no matter how "small" the achievement is (ending up 3rd). Taking it easy. And why not, he was World Champion. Cool motherf***er.

thanks for upload!

[@Yobbyable]

Go Timo

[@gwenkuf]

I like Baum's variation in blocking, like placement, aggressive and passive block, there are a lot of changes in rhythm. However, he needs to be more dynamic like Michael Maze to give more trouble to Boll!

[@jsjw2]

Timo is the final boss of Europe Table Tennis

[@boozeman56]

@NightcruiserMA try mizutani or xu xin

[@Aizensama153]

2:50 hahahah xD

[@johnbozi]

@cata60 what was the prize money?

[@DKPOWA]

Why are there so many funny parts on this video?? xD Very nice match, Timo played an interesting match, showing why he is Europe´s #1, Baum wasnt that bad, he just needed to keep on doing intelligent stuff instead of getting in long rallys with TB.

[@yobmas722]

how many hidden jokes are in this video? haha first the other players are just texting then there was a running table tennis bat that tripped then a camera man with table tennis balls for eyes

[@badcompany2984]

looks like a showmatch.

[@TTridata]

Schlager's face @ 9:33 and 10:54 xD

[@DELIVERUS126]

2:32 the match is so boring XD

[@evgeniy_moscow_gooner]

+DELIVERUS126 Angry birds!!!!!!!!!

[@Twiddle_TV]

Haha, Jorg is like "these 2 idiots blocking each other out again ZZzzZz"

[@ttime9947]

They already know who is gonna win this

[@padiltimo]

timo is unbeatable in europe..except when he got injuries

[@furqanulhaq7250]

exactly

[@Ottowizard]

6:00 wtf lol

[@555Jimson666]

6:00 ! :D:D

[@thekidofpt1]

2:32 are they all texting? lol

[@DaKrazedKyubizt]

5:58 lol.

[@Detherocable]

timo and schlager: true winners

[@Assassine8]

all very fair sportsmen

[@cata60]

German players were in an impresive form,a mention for Suss and especially Baum,who was beatin 2 great names in t.t,Samsonov and Schlager Anyway,all players,boys and girls altogether,show some lack of enthusiasm,due mabe to the empty hall where matches took place or,more probably,due to completly lack of money prizes!

[@shai15099]

6:00 :OO

[@Izraphel]

baum started the match motivated and sharp, but timo's spin variations dulled his edge. spin based players are his weakness, he obviously wants to engage in hitting and blocking contests where he excells.

[@NexxtGen]

It's almost absurt how much better Timo is in general to the rest of the Europeans...

[@TheKarub1]

i think he just acted like that win ment something to him I mean he's won that title at least 14 times

[@max095]

Timo Boll once again Europena Champion... by the way, does somebody know what happened to Michael Maze?

[@Opalance]

Just lacking a tiny touch of control by Baum, just missed a couple shots here and there...

[@BTYTenergy05]

2:50 wtf))

[@NightcruiserMA]

My thoughts: Waldner was the best player ever, and had the most incredible longevity. But his style was not as exciting as it could have been because of his block and smash tendencies. I respect Waldner's abilities more than any other player, but imho, the most *exciting* players to watch of the last 30 years are: 1) Wang Liqin, 2) Timo Boll, 3) Joo Se Hyuk, 4) Jan Ove Waldner 5) Can't decide on 5th - Schlager? Grubba? Persson? Appelgren? Long? But I'm leaning toward J.p. Gatien as my 5th.

[@GS-26]

@max095 he has an knee-injury!! poor michael.

[@cata60]

@johnbozi noone .some prizes from sponsor

[@plot000000]

wtf that ball glasses dude freaked me out

[@allandario]

if Baum want to have a chance against timo, he needs to stay closer to the table and don't engage in those long rallies. also because Baum is not playing with coach he doesnt have a clear strategy. i enjoyed Baum's matches against Samsonov and Schalager. i think he is a talented player with good technique. he also has to stop doing that slow loop to start this attack, against Timo that is just asking for it.

[@IsteraN]

how much money is first prize?

[@perniciousnc]

seriously tis matchup is so boring lol

[@Yobbyable]

Go Timo

[@DocCouz]

@bartek4443 iPhone 4 rulezzzzz !!!!!

[@laksefiske]

GREAT VIDEO! Except spectacular table tennis we also get to see the dumbest mascot ever borned, as well as Franziska, Ovctharov, Rosskopf and Schlager texting while the final is going on.

[@lutove94]

@NightcruiserMA five is schlager

[@sibagproduction5422]

where is Michael Maze?

[@mlw22160]

It is really nice to see Baum playing at this level again. Very exciting. After reaching world rank 29 in Feb, he has plummeted back down to 50. You definitely don't want to see that kind of trend in a young player. Hopefully he starts moving back up now.

[@stefankick2710]

Baums Blocks sind eine Augenweide.

[@GuiMXC]

Anybody knows what happened to Kreanga before the game against Matenet? Injury or racket control?

[@alfonsogmzg]

Lol @ 2:32 Rosskopf, Schlager, Suss and Franziska texting, the Belarus coach yawning and Pavel Platonov is like wtf

[@Listermintsluesh]

Boll seems to accelerate from nowhere, such an awesome power player. ...

[@Opalance]

@KingWobba 6:04 XD

[@niklwitart]

@Opalance omg ^^

[@zosterinski]

@bartek4443 that's pretty sad. maybe they're tweetering

[@TabletennisDavid]

Historic win for Boll! He's the best :P

[@marcii253]

hmm schade dass Patrick's Rückhand nicht so sicher kommt wie sseine Vorhand.. sonst hätte Timo echt mehr Probleme gehabt ^^

[@TTridata]

[@nitale55688]

[@TheHeidi24]

[@Tracid85]

2:33 loool...alle mit handys ^^

[@tanxu]

we all knew the outcome. althugh baum improved alot Boll is wat to steady for him. baum's opening loop is so weak.
