Volkswagen 2010 Cup - Braunschweig, , GER, Nov 30 - Dec 1. Men's Singles Quarterfinal.

[@ooh29]

That was the Battle. You can feel the tension in the air.

[@sashazxtt]

The two legends. I've watched this a dozen times at least. Will watch as many again. The screaming Harimoto should watch as well to learn what a respectful behavior looks like.

[@claude9532]

Harimoto is one of the most humble players...

[@sashazxtt]

@@claude9532 Not when he wins a point. After a match, yes, he seems very polite. But during the match, I don't think so.

[@Smacfest]

My two favourite players :)

[@ferrox_liberia6735]

[@jspark8721]

smasonov stayed way too left, so Joo was ready to change the rubber

[@kashcole5038]

[@pudi5858]

good job by samsonov he really makes it hard chop

[@shubhamthehumble]

love joo se hyuk

[@cbsmusic2745]

i think if Joo plays attack, he could best tt player in the world!

[@kimbreed2241]

8:10

[@ttennisvader]

It seems that big players are definitely advantageous against defensive players. However, when playing against a defender, it is more important than the ability to overcome a backspin ball without a mistake rather than a speed. In that respect, Samsonov, Oh Sang-eun, Wang li-qin, the heavy but slow ball of the defender is easy to handle.

[@kaizhangtabletennis]

That was twiddling, and he did it so smoothly.

[@TheNinetySecond]

Amazing match up. Watching Samsonov try to outmaneuver Joo Se Wall Hyuk was a blast. Good at finding the cracks, but not enough power to get past Joo's defense, Samsonov had to improvise a bit, it seemed, though not as much as Joo had to adapt. The switch from defense and those classic chops to quick, aggresive counter shots was beautiful, and surely would have got him the match if he had done it a little sooner. Great match over all. Nice to see something that isn't quite as high octane as other match ups, but still gripping and dynamic throughout.

[@7855561]

WOW!! at 12:15 its amazing how joo just flipped his bat around at the last millisecond and blocked his way to win the point

[@ankushbarua4327]

My Two favorite players but since I am a chopper myself so I am bit inclined towards Joo. But after a long time I witnessed a good match :)

[@meinCtutWe]

amazing match ! and samsonov won the game, look he did the last point, so he must have won :D

[@DaFaiGai]

love vladimirs backhand :P

[@arrisbunuan8944]

wow!

[@811Leon]

at 3:0, samsonov scored and they counted it for joo, so they corrected it

[@user-dg9vm3fv6m]

Грамотно Самсонов играет.

[@AceofDlamonds]

LOL I can't believe Joo blew that first game after a 4 point or so lead. Well, both are great defenders. Match well.

[@plot000000]

good to see joo attacking more. love that backhand twiddle XD

[@thenewfire]

plot000000 that backhand twiddle was EPIC!!!

[@IWantSomethingNew]

Very Waldneresqe point @ 2:23!

[@MartinWyatt]

Great stuff

[@perniciousnc]

joo is epic

[@fernandoxislas]

PAra ganarle a Joo hay que jugar a máximo nivel.

[@MrWaaghals]

Awesome net ball at 1:20

[@cruisekong7760]

Samsonov is good player!

[@yogistyle92]

Ouch!! Vladi had enough of Joo's down-the-line counter-attacking at 11:50. Joo wasn't having any of it by taking the next point with über class (12:11).

[@napleee]

@atthy4 "unintelligent " is not the word to describe Ma Lin's shots.

[@dalemiller2160]

Joo is not playing with double inverted! either Dtecs or TSP Curl P-1r

[@npnutra1768]

nice rallies

[@victorhugoalvessouza7681]

0:04 Wasn't it point of Joo?

[@michaelmcguire93]

joo is just like tooshay samsonov with that backhand block

[@shogrran]

Confused with the scoring at 0:31 7-6 Joo. Then Samsonov makes a point... then the next screen the score is 9-6???

[@pudi5858]

its a highlights video so it skips some shorter/less interesting rallies

[@shogrran]

pudi5858 i know it skips shorter rallies. But that's a point for joo and 7-6 should be 7-7 but it went 9-6 instead. They awarded the point to samsonov with what looked like a point for joo I wanted to know what happened. Did the ball hit his short or joo moved the table?

[@pudi5858]

oh youre right sorry, i think they messed up the scoring overlay for the tv since it also switches a little later in the set

[@CrazyHynter]

The score becomes 9-6 For Joo, and the point should've been awarded to Samsonov. So the actual result would've been 9-7 after that, I don't know why they gave the point to Joo though.

[@proservise1912]

Неправильно расположена камера трансляции этого ,интересного матча(если можно так сказать).

[@tsantsanb]

12:15 change the world?

[@bachforelle11]

i dont get that scoreboard...

[@Thenakedchef5k77777]

とても素晴らしい試合ですね。 それにしても4セット目からの朱世赫、ヤバし。

[@olaniyi570]

No freebees against Joo. Samsi perhaps the 2nd best player against chop of all time.

[@evgeniy_moscow_gooner]

Samsoov plays so well in defence that Joo has to attack at 4:10:))

[@ttennisvader]

체구가 큰 선수들이 확실히 수비형 선수들을 상대로 유리한 점이 있는 것 같다. 체구가 큰 선수들은 힘이 좋은 대신 체구가 작은 선수들에 비해 속도가 떨어진다. 하지만 수비수를 상대할 때는 속도보다는 미스 없이 백스핀 볼을 넘길 수 있는 여유 있는 힘이 보다 중요하단 점에서 삼소노프,오상은,왕리친 같은 선수들에게 수비수의 무겁지만 느린 볼은 처리하기에 편하다.

[@MrJawsbreaker]

There are only two good. Vladimir Samsonov and Joo See Hyuk

[@matheusgarbellotto]

the ball is 5 stars ? Which is the ball ?

[@andreialexandruparfeni7129]

3 stars I think.

[@yaminerenri]

I like this game these players scream CHOOO after point

[@zs2001]

Lol!!!

[@hanshuang6438]

Vlad, chopper killer

[@Jeteso2009]

8:10 reversed roles

[@mistercat6169]

looks like joo is not only defense..........................

[@ferrox_liberia6735]

Emils Rubins because it is play idiot

[@mistercat6169]

becose it is game becose it is playing style but not how you was writting IF YOU DONT KNOW ENGLISH THAN DONT WRITE ANY COMMENTS IN ENLISH (hate peopoles who write comments in english but dont know what it means)

[@ferrox_liberia6735]

Emils Rubins yes my bad "it'is his play " i think its better ;D

[@saghin546]

Samsonov is so moderate, but he does show great control to fool Joo. Great game though not hot enough >

[@user-tr7ym1ho4j]

1:20 네트맞고 떨어진공이 다시 넘어서 굴러오네 ㅋㅋㅋ

[@staryhavran]

Interesting - Joo has got quite dynamic topspin! Each time he decides to strike Samsonov loses. I don't understang why has Joo decided to be defensive player.

[@percevalzinzin5983]

I believe he attacks on opportunity so he succeeds much more than an attacker who attacks by instinct and has a lower success rate.

[@maxk880]

3:04 fastest loop ever?

[@andreialexandruparfeni7129]

Not even close.

[@broro100]

Vladimir didn't win, joo did, look at @00:46, thts joo's game not samsonov's!!!!!!!

[@samheng29]

Now no one watched tennis anymore :)

[@espinasseclaire]

At 00:54 Joo's got 9 and Samsonov's got 6 and at 01:01 Joo's got 7 and Samsonov, 10 ! What is the fuck ?

[@AP-qu8sl]

Joo has some amazing aggressive shots and he wins the games when he plays aggressively. Don’t know y he doesn’t do that. Instead sticks with that stupid defense

[@billybobdozer569]

lol Samsonov at 4:48 "hey Joo Se Hyuk is not supposed to smash my serve, he is a chopper." Also 3:34 WOW Samsonov caught Joo Se Hyuk's smash with his left hand and just calmly returns the ball.

[@Kwonghun]

Vladimir Samsonov is so lame!!! Joo is the best :D

[@andreialexandruparfeni7129]

No he isn't.

[@Smijti0815]

I don't really like Samsonov. He stares at his opponents with a pretty weird "wtf-face" everytime he gets scored on. He's a heck of a player tho.

[@thenewfire]

Smijti that has always bugged me too!

[@marciovinicius862]

Samsonov 4 X 2 Joo Se Hyuk But 80% of the points that are showed on the video were made by the defensive player. That's nonsense. Terrible edition

[@theishaan3]

@shubhamthehumble joo se hyuk sucks as he is a defensive player and can be easily defeated by taking him far from the table and then giving him a drop shot. thats why Samsonov won the match.

[@wasdwasdedsf]

uhhhh

[@amasoftyou]

it is a good defense and attacking play by joo but somehow its really tiring to watch and the fun just at the beginning. that kind of play look smart but actually it is a disgrace of pingpong, lame play, and thats why smart and excellent players (ma long, zhang ji ke, timo ball, vladimir, fang, and etc) do not play like that. how ever great show by vladimir considering his age :)

[@riujithetechnician]

I dont think "disgrace" and "lame" are the right words for his style, the only disgrace I see is when someone plays defensive style is when someone fails to return those backspin heavy chops. Playing table tennis differently from the conventional style does not mean he's a disgrace, he is just unique plain and simple

[@thenewfire]

Disgrace? Is that why over half those people you named have never been in a world championship final and Joo has? The real disgrace is the ittf changing the ball AGAIN to cripple defenders.
