- New York Cosmos Assistant Coach Alecko Eskandarian considers himself a force to be reckoned with in the sport of table tennis. But would a showdown with a 13-year-old from United Way's ReadNYC program change that? Watch incognito ping pong prodigy Estee Ackerman prank the Cosmos and bring Alecko to his knees.

The dude was humiliated AND he was very gracious about it! Bravo!
Layton Payne good human being
I mean...no reason to assume he wouldnt be gracious either
@@nickz5849 It was kind of set up that way.
He also was trying to pat himself on the back.
I'm with you on this Layton Payne, Give credit where it's due.
Estee Ackerman is a beast when it comes to battling not just her but also her family members Kenny Ackerman , Levi Ackerman and Mikasa Ackerman you should check them out when it comes to battling.
Dude nobody got your reference here XD
beat me to it
Lol I get it aot (attack on Titan)
i didnt get it lol... still dont
Hahahaha
I really like how he handled that. Proper respect and admiration, what a lovely guy. And Estee rocks at table tennis!
And she wasn't even playing anywhere near what she is capable of.
@@graemeedwards8623 it's three years later and I have zero recollection of this video. So I watched it again and echo my original comments. This is what a 'prank' should be.
He took that in good spirit - I'm mid 'pro sports players pranking people binge' 😆
Props to him bc he figured out very quickly she was better than him, and instead of getting his ego in a bunch and going all Joe Intensity to try and beat a 13yo girl in a friendly match he gave a legit, but not full-on, effort (yes, he'd still lose if he went full-on, but ego will make ppl do stupid things, and he held his in check. Good on, dude).
Why do people reward modesty though as if they assumed he would react like a douche? Is it just because it's a man vs a girl? Unbelievable
BECAUSE IT IS at the least assumed to be atypical, but pleasant to see! full props! @@nickz5849
@@dmmusicmusic That's just misandrist then... Men are not just universally know to be assholes towards women
Nick Z I think it’s cause she’s way younger, most people would make up excuses, but he didn’t.
let's all appreciate Estee's performance...I can imagine it being quite difficult to pretend you're an amateur at something while you're really an expert at it, but doing that so convincingly at such a young age..props to her!
I do find it funny that they felt the need to give her a fake name, as if anyone would recognize her as the ranked #8 for under 14 girls. It's not exactly a household name.
because theres google, and people will start search for her name the moment she show her skills
@@biteme9505 i doubt anyone did that
@@wasupman2284 I bet you are the life and soul of the party. Wait you are the only one at that party, as no one invites you to theirs, so you have to party and bore yourself. Oh wait, I bet you do not bore yourself.
@@marknorville9827 Did you say something? Sorry, I was busy admiring the new president of the United States of America.
If you're into USA table tennis like these people are, you would probably recognize her name
I loved both of their reactions....he took that in a very good spirit and she was gracious the whole time with her smile.
This guy was admirably totally cool. Enjoyed his event against someone he could never possibly beat.
Props Mister!!
Love this, great sportsmanship all around!
I grew up playing soccer with Alecko. A great person from a great family. Absolute class acts.
I feel old, I remember shopping in his dad's store and would ask him about his little kids.
@@imateapot51 yeah. Alecko and I will be 40 next year. No longer little kids.
This was so much funny to watch! I loved the reaction of the kids, loved that Alecko was funny and gracious during and after his loss! What wonderful sportsmanship! Estee was terrific!
*so much fun
Now that is how you play a sport, with true sportsmanship.
I love watching this kind of video.
He was pretty polite took it well, respect.
Props to the coach for taking it all in stride and giving her the proper respect.
That’s awesome! I loved watching this!
I like her smile.
She's so cute and strong.
NBI
ikachanusa fbi open up
Perv
@@shawnbrown6413 nigga what.? hes just appreciating her smile. weirdo
ikachanusa 6 more years and you're good
He's a great sport. And she's quite talented. Enjoyed the vid.
That's a great reaction by the coach... well done
That was fun to watch!! Thanks
Humilty is a great lesson to learn, no matter the teacher.
Great sport and great talent. This was awesome!
ah estee's smile is so adorable!!~
Reminds me of the Princess Bride - "I know something you don't know....I'm not left handed" LOL
Inconceivable!
Props to cream for realizing he’d been had right away and taking it like a man.
She was so cool and relaxed and then just kicked his butt. Good for her
That was fun to watch..well done to all
Levi ackerman, mikasa ackerman, kenny akcerman, and now her
Ackermans are to be feared.
Uchiha's
Lmaooooooo
Loool
I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT THIS
That was fantastic! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Full of smiles.
They should play against 10 year old Chinese
uhhhh they do? Is it called competitions? Never heard of them? Not to mention that she is expected to play in the 2020 Olympics where there are plenty of Chinese competetors. She was hardly trying against this guy, she looks so relaxed because she know's they are not anywhere near the same skill level.
Swoosh
I know right. MY grandpa plays better ping pong
@@davidvaldez9670 nigga what? She's a top table tennis player not to mention only ranked top 8 in the U.S. but not a ping pong player. There's a huge difference between ping pong and table tennis. Dont run your mouth if you don't know shit .
A new chinese fetus could beat me at ping pong
Love videos like this!
So sweet..both of'em..
She has got such a wonderful smile.
Great display of sportsmanship from the guy.
Dude was great about the lost, never made an excuse while getting smoked by the young buck.
Epic.. Great idea
This guy is such a good sport.
great sportsmanship
If she didn't change her name, he would've totally known that she was a top 10 in US in her age bracket.
This is how a guy who often wins and likes it loses with grace to an opponent he totally under estimated. That is class. Very rare to see something like that. And well, yes, she is amazing.
Can't hide true skill for more than a few seconds.
“She’s going to smoke me! I’m trying, I’m trying guys” haha
Espectacular!!!!
I love the look on someone's face when I say I've never played b4 and I'm holding the paddle with a Japanese Penholder's grip. The first serve is usually a dead giveaway. LOL
I love her personality ❤😉
Do you know her?
I love her smile :)
haha, nice prank, nice plays and skills! thanks!
What a nice guy.
But can she do it on a cold Tuesday night in Stoke?
Is it 2004? Dragging this old comment out!
Quincy 1976 - 1983
Bwahaha 😂
she'd probably shoot some smack and get passed around by a group of P......is
That was great!
Good sport , nice to see.
Amazing! 😀
estee...the world class player
dude was a super good sport.
The best part of the whole video for me was him giving her props after she kicked his ass. Good on you bro.
at 1:52 when she bounces the ball off the ground is when he should have known something was up.
i thought the same!
Alecko : I did o right, I did ok, right?
Estée : Yeah, you are pretty good. 😂
That was excellent
"there's something I ought to tell you." "Tell me!" "I'm not left handed, either!"
Dude was classy in defeat. good stuff.
Totally changed my mind about this guy. Self defecating and a great sport. your number one in my book my friend for having such a good spirit. Your game face at first scared me, you did a little bit of acting too. If only more sports guys could be like you , heck, not just sports but your great way to be period. Looking back, I can see why you have such good friends on your team.
He is self-defecating.
lol I thought it was funny...
Sport? A game, I would say. Like curling, bowling and pool.
Lmao at self defecating
They make Depends for that you know.....
And to think Estee was still not even playing her best, once she caught up and past him she let off a little and had some fun. Brava Estee!
1:05 That girl's thinking, Hehehe y'all don't know about my skills, just wait, and you'll see
Who says in sport there can’t be winners all round! He showed himself to be a great guy, she an accomplished actress. It ain’t easy to pull complete doofus moves when you are a champ, but she had a few. I especially liked her hitting it wide onto the next table. Good vibe in that club.
That's what's great about sports.😀
imagine having the last name ackerman and missing the absolute chance to name your child levi
After seeing this 6 year old Chinese kid would be like
Hold my milkshake 😂
That's how an adult loses to a child. Good guy. competitiveness is allowed if you're gracious in defeat.
He ate some humble pie haha
Years ago my wife and I played Ping-Pong in our garage for exercise. I thought I played pretty well. I heard of a local church where players gathered once a week for practice and competition so I decided to drop in. I had no idea how good, "good" could be! I didn't have a chance. In fact I was so out Played I was totally embarrassed and knew there was no way i could ever be good enough to even give any of them a challenging match, even as they tried to show me the moves! There were about 30 people there that evening and they all blew my mind!
That's my blood right der. She's just more nicer than me.
LOL..."Are you hustling me?" ..... uh yeah
Lol you give an inch people will take a mile
Words have never been more true
Great job kid!
He should have flipped the table like "WTF!?!?!?"
She's smiling the whole time lol
good sport. I love a good pranking :)
Awesome good sports !!!!!
Guy was a great sport about this prank.
The girl went super saiyan in the middle
he knew when she switched hands
Call it T-T or P-P, it can be fun w/o too much effort. How about a freighter transit from Auckland to SF in winter, when storms off Oregon sends purdy big rollers into the SW Pacific Ocean. A typical evening on Argentine Star (Blue Star Line, since retired) finds me arguing with Captain Strong for dowsing the stack lights so I can get a star fix, about 9-minutes. This is really a safety procedure which few naval officers keep up. I learned in 1954-5 with USAF. Anyhow, p-p, aided by a gallon of beer and a 36-deg roll, can work wonders for ships morale. JL
At 1:02 when she was pretending i knew this was going to be great
These are the kind of pranks that I love, not the stupid ones.
Mikasa : I'm so proud of her.
I once played Carl Prean. He gave me a 20 point lead and beat me... And I played hard...
And that is what we would expect! No shame there........
My town Springfield Vermont we are the cosmos
Ackerman . I already knew what was gonna happen
I'm surprised she wasn't recognized right when she walked in.
LOL
Superb
Pride comes before fall!
I love she whipped the floor with him too
Magnifique :)
Good hustle
another ackerman slapping
"Undercover" I'm sorry but shes the 8th ranked girl under 14 in the nation ain't no way she neede to be undercover.
If you asked anyone in the Cosmos team, how many of them can name the #1 player in US, not to mention the 8th ranked girl under 14.
Ken...ya that’s kinda the point he was manning, man.
I think that more meant, they didnt announce who she was, and moreover played it off like she was new/bad. More of a hustle, but for humility instead of money.
Her: 2-0 down
Also her: i have only been using -5% of my power
A friend of mine and myself decided to join a local ping-pong club, thinking we'd just play eachother now and then.
In stead we somehow got enrolled in the national membership lists. We didn't mind as we were placed in the lowest division, we had after all hardly any experience at just 17-18 years old.
Then something happened within the ping-pong federation, and all of a sudden we were in 3rd. division. Because of that we were told that we had to go to a national tournament in a city a few hours away the following weekend. Sure thing!
The first thing I did when we arrived, was to check out when, where and who I was going to play, but neiher my pal or I could find our names on the list.
So we asked one of the volunteers for help, and after a while she came back with a big smile telling us we were now in first division! And just to top it off informed me that I should consider myself lucky as my two first opponents had competed in the Olymics, repeatedly. I told her I bought my first paddle three weeks ago and asked if I could go home now. 😲
I've never been so thoroughly beaten my entire life. I managed to hit the ball - whenever it was my serve. When they served I was lucky if I hit the ball, but when I did it would go the opposite direction of where I intended, and I don't think it ever passed the net. 😄
Everybody there knew about the mixup though, so like here everyone was just laughing.
One of them said he'd go easy on me.
"The only way to humiliate me is to go easy on me", I said. Boy did I ever regret saying that!
The only time I have been more exhausted was after challenging a collegue to a game of squash (and I've been through bootcamp).
How the hell was I supposed to know that she, that tiny little thing, used to be a pro player with tons of sponsorships before she retired and started working at my firm?!
Jupp, she taught me a lesson about what happens when you underestimate the wrong person.
And she loved it! 🤣🤣
That is hilarious. A pal and myself once ended up on a TENNIS COURT WITH 2 WORLD RANKED PLAYERS.. it was absurd how god they were. Pointless us being on the court (we split the pairs)
