That commentator seems to be a big Ma Lin fanboy, lol. Can't blame him, though. Ma Lin was just amazing.

Ma lin is the most skilfull table tennis player of all times, He is a show man!

[@andreialexandruparfeni7129]

Glauco Soares I would disagree about the most skillful part.

[@nofrigginidea3728]

best forehand of all chinese players

Me too :)

[@CHABIEPORTNOY]

I miss this creativity with table tennis

[@saikarthikbathula7108]

Just one month before this match was played, Ma Lin was defeated by Ma long in the quarter finals of world championships in Rotterdam. Ma Lin took the revenge this time... ;)

[@alexliu5282]

这解说的真是好，尽情享受比赛的感觉。非常喜欢最后他给马琳的的评价，a magician,Ma Lin !

[@MultiApplet]

If you don't like Ma Lin, you haven't seen him at his great moments! Suuperb!

[@Engmazzouz]

really fantastic, Ma Lin is absolutely magician

[@luka3450]

We need him back I love him!

[@lopchurng]

4:45 ma lin twiddles his bat to shakehand and then back to penhold so quickly and effortlessly

[@jds2010ful]

I really like this video, and others like it. The overall color of the ball barriers, floor, table, ball, etc., make it so easy to follow the ball in play. Great job for whoever is responsible.

[@ankeyao]

Ma Lin is my all-times TT hero...Regardless of who plays better, I enjoy watching Ma Lin playing cuz he looks more experienced.

[@spideyjos]

ma lin really wants to be at london next year... love to see him there with this performance.. great play

[@PongsarinChessClub]

Absolutely True :)

the guy that commentates this game makes the match much more exiting :)

[@konnichwakid]

I have never cared for Ma Lin much. Until today! That was amazing. To make Ma Long look that frustrated takes so much power and skill. Incredible!!!!!!!!!!!! That guy is awesome.

[@peterwind8101]

Ma lin is the real showman. So interesting watching him play

[@АндрейШаршаков-э3м]

Ma Lin - God of table tennis!

[@PongsarinChessClub]

This video deserves 1 million views. Great victory ,Ma Lin.

[@HSHAZAM]

This should be Ma Lin's first champion title in single after Beijing Olympic, also the last in his career which ended 2 yrs after this match.😢

[@simonshaw2449]

Speed glue ban destroyed his career after the 2008 Olympics.

[@metonato]

Ma Lin, you are absolutely greatest player ever of all times

[@vidyutharni6151]

This is the crown jewel match of table tennis between two superb champions..

[@kettlebell_dan]

Only had to watch one Ma Lin video to remember why he's my all-time favorite player.

[@mit5oner]

i think i'll change my name to ma.. it may help

[@lesliefrancs]

Wow Ma Lin is definitely experienced. Create power without committing your whole body to the shots (barrel rolling forehand), while playing slow, spinny balls until the first attack, picking on Ma Long's short game. Amazing wily fox.

[@georgewu5]

I was so excited watching this ! George Wu, AIA 2011-12-22

Great match from MA Lin whom finally find the key/tactics and magic shot to beat Ma Long.

[@gabtubeify]

o ma lin é muito bom!!! eu sou muito fã dele!!

[@machine0071]

the point at 5:48 is brutal sick. great final, CG Ma Lin!

[@peacefulmind1409]

When Ma Lin in his prime, he has the best footwork in Chinese table tennis history.

[@peacefulmind1409]

In China, people never think Malong is better than the previous Chinese legends. I know Malong is one of the best now along with ZJK in this period of time, But People from other countries should just stop overrating Ma Long. He has not become the greatest Chinese player of all time.

[@christianadriananiceta2753]

I thought the best footwork belongs to Ryu Seung Min.. but yeah.. Ma Lin in his prime is very very fast

[@vijayyadav-fk1dc]

Not at all. Ma Long is insanely strong dude. Ma Long at the end is going to be the greatest ever and already the best ever

[@peacefulmind1409]

Christian Adrian Aniceta. Ryu is South Korean, not Chinese.

[@nofrigginidea3728]

ma long isnt as talented as ma lin or wang hao

[@VTI777]

is this the only commentator for every finals in major events? I seem to hear his voice every single time.

[@QuantumStates]

Awesome angle at 7:10!! The photographers have the best angles for watching table tennis.

Excellent match !

Those are by far the two best ping pong players around.. but I still think Ma Lin is the best

2:04 legend pattern.. 2:59 Ma lin's cool expression 3:42

[@peacefulmind1409]

I do miss Wang Liqin and Ma Lin's generation, and also Wang Hao who is the legend of backhand.

[@peacefulmind1409]

People now from other countries only know Malong, BUT if you are a chinese table tennis fan, you should have know Malong is just one of the stars, but not unique.

[@andreialexandruparfeni7129]

Chengyan Ruan He is very unique. He is the best right now, a Grand Slam champion, and quickly moving up on the all-time greats list.

[@peacefulmind1409]

tteverywhere 97 I agree he is the goat after Rio.

[@andreialexandruparfeni7129]

Chengyan Ruan I don't know about being the GOAT just yet, but he is certainly Top 3. Let's see what he does in Düsseldorf.

[@yong-haotan6576]

Exactly. Watching Wang Liqin and Ma Lin doing topspin rallies is an absolute treat.

[@jimiclaptoncarl18]

Wow! What a great match!

[@sethsitjar457]

Muy buen juego, se ve que juegan juntos todos los dias.

[@Lerthas]

@odyssey20011 no he is not table tennis federer, he is ma lin, the one and only:D.

[@0o0jf0o0]

@PreppyPoser1 no, he really did twiddle, but it's very hard to see. he just held the bat in some kind of shakehand grip for a very short time, slow motion on itTV shows it =)

[@martinbunda35]

The quality of the video looks like it was in the 90's

[@Bordeepat]

Ma Lin is so fantastic

[@kiwiyoghurt]

Ma Lin is amazing!

[@allgoo19]

Old guy rules!!! ^_^ You can't argue with the level of their skill. Pretty amazing.

[@shatil321]

Ma Lin's best game against Ma Long. :)

[@peacefulmind1409]

When Ma Lin was in his prime, Ma Long was just a little boy. youngsters now only know Malong, but he is just one of stars in Chinese table tennis history.

[@TTTTCJGKS]

Ma Long has always had no problem dealing with Ma Lin, he likely just choked in this match as he was still quite young. Ma Long IS one of the greatest table tennis players in history. I don't understand why people think Ma Lin is so great. He still has never won his grand slam. Ma Lin was just a great player to watch, he is definitely still a legend of table tennis though.

[@talalpern6868]

groudon4616 Ma longs competition simply disapeared for him to achieve greatness. ZJK was gone. FZ is still young and inexperienced. XX style is too predictable thats why he always lost to WLQ. Ma Lin always had tough competition to beat. his chinese compatriots. Boll, Samsonov, Waldner kong and liu guoliang when he was younger. today hes out there alone at the top with one competiter who is still up and coming.

[@dickn.ormous1064]

​@@TTTTCJGKS Still quite young?At 22?He was not a teen.Ma Lin faced huge competition and was relevant for over a decade,surviving tons of changes like the 40mm ball,the new serve rule etc .Ma Long's biggest trophy before Wang Hao's retirement was winning the World Cup in 2012 against 31yo T. Boll who hardly played any tournament that year to save his body for the Olympics.Greatest t.t player my ass!Most of his opponents were in their 30's when he became invincible.Seems like you first started watching tt after 2015.

[@EdenZq]

i really want to see a match between a younger ma lin and the current ma long. Ma lin in this video moves a bit too slowly.

[@mindrover777]

Malong will get destroyed, obviously

[@TheRafaelBond]

this is one of his best matches, it doesnt get better for ma lin... ma long is obviously better overall

[@peacefulmind1409]

Rafael Mertin Not really, he was 31 here, his prime years were when he was 26-28, 2006-2008’s Malin is the best Malin

[@DanielVazquez-oh6kk]

Prime Ma long was just something else though

[@Chinhoyin]

I LOVE U MA LIN!!!!!!

[@leopulga]

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE MA LIN

[@christianadriananiceta2753]

Who else misses players like Ma Lin? talk about class and style..

[@christianadriananiceta2753]

wait there is only one Ma Lin... I meant players with unique style like Wang Hao, Ryu , Wang Liqin.. and gotta love the old Zhang Jike

[@Pengkui]

@razhorblahd Yes, when smashing a high ball, Ma Lin usually twiddles this paddle to shakehand style, and uses the non-tacky rubber to smash, for speed and consistency. At 4:45, Ma Lin deliberately did the twiddling to give Ma Long the impression that he was going to smash...

[@Meurth]

Great commentator :D

[@chokibert]

Please pardon my perhaps silly question but, what is the chinese government policy regarding prize money for the players in the table tennis national team???

[@lonelyboy5192]

Amazing! A great match!

[@longle0402]

I love this commentator, very passionate

[@LookB3hindU]

@chokibert As far as I know a stipend is given to the facility while the rest is given to the players. Is that what you were asking for?

[@EliasAxelPettersson]

Thanks for the great quality video and for cutting out the ridiculous commentary (for the most part). Just pure table tennis!

[@wanxing6]

MaLong plays like a robust, but Malin plays like a wise man. If Malin retired one day, we will never see this kind of player anymore, just Waldner disappear forever. Nowadays, young players prefer play like Malong.

[@MagisVizNapoli]

Ma Lin SHOW!

[@TechCrack]

He is correct. 2011 China open..
