We are witnessing a different Xu Xin in this tournament. This is the World Cup version of Xu Xin, not the typical World Tour version. Focused, determined, with the desire to win and bring pride to his country. Normally, in world tour events, Xu Xin is arrogant, likes to play around, maybe even childish. But this Xu Xin right here did NOT wanna lose against Harimoto. He wanted to remain the only CNT member who is yet to be beaten by TH at all cost. Not arrogant, not childish. Just ice cold, determined and dominant. THAT'S the Xu Xin I want to see!
Nive1337 definitely he played amazing today. If he didn't he would have lost. He was focused and energetic. I could watch these two play 100 sets. They both played incredible.
Should also give some credit to Harimoto, he made really nice blocks against Xu Xin's spinning loops that many players could not block that close to the table like Harimoto can
Xu Xin vs Harimoto contest is typical (spin vs speed) confrontation, which shows winning for spin-oriented playing in this match . Earlier Harimoto won Zhou in quater final. Harimoto has fantastic speed of action and ball feeling. His touches are very confident and sensitive. His strongest feature is the ability to switch playing hand from backhand-forehand-backhand-forehand. But Harimoto is still lag in producing topspin, especially forehand topspin in rallies. His tactic is continuously switching ball direction left-right-center-stomach-left-right to force opponents to move. But Xu Xin often leaves far from table before the starting of rallies to have enough time to react and to find to produce strong topspins, which create unforced errors from Harimoto. By that way of strong topspins, Xu Xin forces Harimoto to go far from the table, where Xu Xin dominates with his extreme topspins. But Harimoto often chooses to stand closer to table and accepts to make more unforced errors. Xu xin has ability to realise his right choosen tactics, and clearly wins. Earlier in the quater final, against Harimoto, Zhou Yu step by step followed the style of Harimoto, so Zhou time by time made less topspins. Zhou became stay closer to table and have not enough time to effective spin balls, and fall in the rhythm of hit/block/counter with continuous switching ball direction and less spin. In this woman style, of course Harimoto is absolute king with his nature phenomenal reaction.
Yes. In this game particular, Harimoto had so many forehand smashes that went over the table. If he was able to but some more topspin in, he whould have hitten more. His flips are allready world class.
For top players like Xu Xin, Ma Long and Fan Zhendong, the biggest pressure to play against Harimoto is the age difference since they will be criticized for losing to a 15 yrs boy if they lose. Other than that, they should be able to beat Harimoto comfortably if they just play their game well. Harimoto is a super talent but he isnt at the level of the world top players yet.
Edgar M I bet it will make a lot of sense if you are the one who is in that situation. Of course you need cool head to win matches. But it is a different mental game of playing against a comparable opponent than playing a 15 yrs old wonder kid. Playing against a comparable player only has the performance pressure but playing against a really good 15 yrs old kid will have both performance pressure and the pressure of being humiliated. Your mental state is different when it's ok to lose than when it's a humiliation to lose.
There is no reason to feel humilated by losing to a 15yo table tennis player if you are mature enough to acknowledge him as a brilliant tt player FZD, ML and XX are critized for losing to EVERY other player that is non-chinese and non-CNT It is clear that Harimoto lacks consistency and experience to get to a greater mental level, but his gamestyle is above the one from CNT and any other players Assuming that his wins over ML and FZD and maybe other top players like Timo Boll etc. only derive from his opponents having a weak mentality and being afraid to lose to a "kid" is ridiculous
Nik krau Easier said than done. Even if you acknowledge him, it is still a pressure there for you to cope with. It will partially making your task more difficult or more different for you to deal with. Imagine that you are one of the best players in your circus where people look up to you and then a young kid suddenly show up and beat you. You still have to acknowledge him but you definitely would still feel an uneasiness. Having a great fighting mental doesnt mean you dont have to deal with the uncomfortable of playing against a kid. And I'm not dressing it as the whole reason that cause them to lose to Harimoto but it is definitely one of the biggest pressures that they had and will have to deal with. They also could just have a bad day or so. But certainly, its a different mental aspect when your opponent isnt a 15 yrs old kid.
Fun fact: every time Harimoto loses a point I give a victory yell. I could almost tolerate some yelling when he makes a great shot but yelling when your opponent makes an error is low class.
they say he has an outdated style but he is the only one who remains unbeaten by the player who arguably has the most modern style of them all. take that flat hitters!
jghfk1 it's really a fallacy that Harimoto is a flat hitter. He doesn't do many slow arching loops from three feet back. But he's still putting as much topspin as possible without sacrificing speed. Occasionally he hits an obvious flat hit but it's rare. Seemed like his forehand was more powerful this tournament. He's still growing. Xu xin really came out ready to play today.
Well done for xuxin come back. And hiramoto done a good job too, given so much pressure to China team. And I think he doesn't need to be ashamed, as he is so young n talented with huge potential, and already proven himself the top tier players in the world. even defeated by xuxin, it's quite normal, and nothing to be shame of
XX has improved soooo much!! Who could say that, in their first face to face, Harimoto got to lead the match 3 x 1... But eventually lost. But now, the boy is still playing quite stunningly, and even so, doesn't stand a chance against Cloud Walker.
XX seemed to have found some weaknesses in Harimoto's style (something we have not seen very much of!) and really prevented him from playing his game. It looked like he was having great success with his serves; Harimoto rarely made a successful first attack
For sure the Harimoto style of play has been studied in depth by the Chinese. Harimoto still has problems with the forehand, the power of his forehand is not yet competitive with the Chinese team. It seems he still has a "kid" game. Usually, in China the boys have a style very similar to that of Harimoto because they have not yet developed the power and speed necessary to get away a little from the table and become the topspin machines. (The same thing happened with Fan Zhen Dong in 2013 at the Chinese national games, when he was almost 17 years old, he had a style very similar to that of Harimoto then over time he changed moving away from the table and playing more power loops.) Now Harimoto if he does an inside-out with his forehand he can not cover the opposite corner of the table and has serious difficulties when playing on his forehand. I wonder if he will grow and develop power, muscles and speed his style change slightly or it will remain the same. I think it will change slightly over time.
XX, like Maze and Kreanga is always a pleasure to watch.. he will never win a WC because of his style and the fact that the chinese know him too well.. but will be missed when retires..
How was the audience able to disrupt the game so often? Conversing loudly during gameplay of the semis is just asinine. Who is in charge of telling them to stfu or leave? Stunned that the nearby watchers did not police the situation themselves.
You two must not be pong players then... A loud cho is all a part of the game, no matter the intensity. You either have thick skin in table tennis, or you must gtfo...
High level does not mean high sportsmanship anymore with all annoying screams. Xu gave him a good lesson in humility that harimoto may or may not learn.
+Ricardo Murillo Unfortunately some people never learn. Michael Maze is a player who sometimes gets angry but manages to keep it under control but you have other players like Chen Weixing and Bastian Steger who are constantly angry and on edge. Hopefully the screaming boy does not grow up to be like them
Xu Xin made awesome blocks, flicks and of course deadly topspin in this world tour. Sometimes he pulled of a strong RPB which surprises me but most of his weak RPB is easy to counter and exploit.
6:37 Xu xin moves after Harimoto's push, and still fast enough to take 2 full steps to make that gigantic angle possible. fucking unreal speed and footwork
This kid is learning very bad manners...that shouting is not only distracting but also disrespecting towards the senior players. But this kid has very fast and powerful shots.
Screaming after the point is no different than screaming fans after the point. It’s not like he scream after every hit like in tennis. People just likes to hate.
to those who said that people are just jealous of harimoto everytime they complained about his screaming and other players do it too..you might want to see other videos of him playing..he screamed like at EVERY point he won and no other player does that more than him..btw i do admire him..and yes i did mute the video but i still can see his facial expression and his screaming voice already recorded in my mind.hahha
Even though I am a huge fan of Harimoto, I also really like Xu Xin. The Game was super interesting but Xu Xin was better. He was faster and stronger than Harimoto, who sometimes seemed nervous and/or confused. Harimoto did many unnecessary mistakes but Xu Xin proved himself to be among the top player. Well I did enjoy watching the game and even though I'm sad that Harimoto's out, I cannot wait to See Xu Xin win🤗
I rather enjoyed Harimoto 1/4 final match. He was more flex and more relax. Today, Harimoto has to more relax and enjoy the game to avoid the unforced errors and maximize his powerful BH to aim Xuxin BH. He's too stiff or completely lost his flexibility, and forgot to find weak points of the opponent during the game. One more thing Harimoto has to learn is to constantly changing his playing patent and force the opponent uncomfortably playing along to win the match.
michelt0612 yeah Xuxin was leading the game since he totally took advantage of harimotos weaknesses. Well Xuxin is very experienced so this is as expected. Can't wait to see Harimoto becoming stronger though
E só o xu xin para de fica arriscando tanto que ganha fácil fácil de todos , sai demais da mesa seloko , um absurdo o tanto q sai da mesa , ficou mais na mesa ganho fácil fácil
Saw venue Melbourne on screen. Harimoto has all the fabulous/basic skills for a competent player but needs to stay cool during the match. Screaming is OK at the end of winning but not throughout the whole match. This has nothing to do with establishing himself in this circuit (he doesn't need it), something that he might not realize at his young age. XX played this match with 100%, no doubt. It makes me wonder if top Chinese players are occasionally told not to win, for unknown reasons.
Harimoto's weaknesses are being studied as he plays more, but that does not mean he is not learning too and very quickly at that. It is only a matter of time now and the trolls are not going to stop him how ever hard their hearts desire.
Great game. Xu Xin will always be one of my favorite players

Nive1337 I agree! He used many third balls, which is not so XX wise.
Nive1337 definitely he played amazing today. If he didn't he would have lost. He was focused and energetic. I could watch these two play 100 sets. They both played incredible.
I think his aim is Tokyo, not the tour.
Should also give some credit to Harimoto, he made really nice blocks against Xu Xin's spinning loops that many players could not block that close to the table like Harimoto can
Xu Xin is not the only,Liang Jungkun and Lin Gaoyuan also have the all-win record against harimoto.
Thank you Xu Xin for muting this screaming bell.

I want someone to shut down this screaming bell too.
But she won her 3rd World Championship Gold. Sad.

How penholders play very well ? O.o
Every time I watch Harimoto play, I wish the ITTF would enforce a rule of no excessive screaming.
I can only watch Harimoto with the sound off, can't stand his pathetic shouting.
I am so proud of xu xin.He played to win.No pressure at all.He played like a champion
Not many players combined ART , SPORT and offcourse Entertaint like XX does!! Bravo

digital soul view thank you for this analysis
Yes. In this game particular, Harimoto had so many forehand smashes that went over the table. If he was able to but some more topspin in, he whould have hitten more. His flips are allready world class.
2:01 "Oh yea" chill commentator
Excellent play by XX, so fast and powerful
Thanks XX, haven't seen Harimoto not screaming for a long time.
For top players like Xu Xin, Ma Long and Fan Zhendong, the biggest pressure to play against Harimoto is the age difference since they will be criticized for losing to a 15 yrs boy if they lose. Other than that, they should be able to beat Harimoto comfortably if they just play their game well. Harimoto is a super talent but he isnt at the level of the world top players yet.
Q Pham think so too, I love Harimoto but he still has lots to learn and this game clearly showed us the diffrence in technique and experience.
That makes little sense,since you can get to this high levels with such a weak mentality.
Edgar M I bet it will make a lot of sense if you are the one who is in that situation. Of course you need cool head to win matches.

Your mental state is different when it's ok to lose than when it's a humiliation to lose.
There is no reason to feel humilated by losing to a 15yo table tennis player if you are mature enough to acknowledge him as a brilliant tt player
FZD, ML and XX are critized for losing to EVERY other player that is non-chinese and non-CNT
It is clear that Harimoto lacks consistency and experience to get to a greater mental level, but his gamestyle is above the one from CNT and any other players
Assuming that his wins over ML and FZD and maybe other top players like Timo Boll etc. only derive from his opponents having a weak mentality and being afraid to lose to a "kid" is ridiculous
Nik krau Easier said than done. Even if you acknowledge him, it is still a pressure there for you to cope with.

I could almost tolerate some yelling when he makes a great shot but yelling when your opponent makes an error is low class.
Gee DoubleU its the young players style I also shout every time even when nets
@@王哥-j4g Shouting on net or edge is very rude for the opponent. Stop doing it, please
GotinPich2012 it’s because you don’t play pro Table Tennis
@@王哥-j4g Lol i am top 10 in bulgarian and calling me unprofesional is funny. Do you see a pro player shouting on net or edge...

jghfk1 If you think Harimoto is a flat hitter, you have a long way to understand his game.
i could count on one hand the number of times he flat hit during this match.
xu xin is such an incredible player... love it! and harimoto had not that much to scream :D
Great match! Xu Xin had an answer to the menacing Harimoto.
大蟒歸來 剛剛看這場比賽時看得我驚心動魄 後來看到大蟒狀態都回來了 甚至進步了很多 便放心很多了
近幾年大蟒狀態低迷 15年世乒賽因傷負於隊友方博 16年奧運會團體賽給日本小左手由10~8到10~12反勝 16年世界盃給小胖壓制 17年世乒賽好不容易死裡逃生贏了林高遠 但被馬龍壓得死死的。
這幾年隔著螢幕也感覺到大蟒的勞累 身體上可能有 更多的應該是心累。大蟒心臟從來也很大顆 輸的原因大多不是輸給自己 而是反手被壓制跟新球時代帶給他的困難。換球換賽制
對老一輩的球員影響最大 以前水谷隼丹羽等等的日本選手都是摩擦著稱 例如前者的發球 後者的神仙球 主要都是靠摩擦。現在球換了 旋轉沒甚麼了 拉個弧圈球也能給蟑本拍死 變得都是撞擊 沒有以前年代處理球的那種細膩。
今次比賽蟑本還是用八個月前對陣大蟒那場公開賽的戰術去打大蟒 可是大蟒早已有備而來 而且狀態極佳。上面說到大蟒進步很多 除了反手技術更加穩定跟有威脅之外 高質量的發球後特別注重前三板跟小球臺內技術 擺短擺的很成功 多次成功造就進攻機會 同時堅持不退台 真的不行才退幾球 而且還能得分 在處理球的技術上面很久沒有看到大蟒如此細膩 。除此之外 更加重要的是大蟒銜接非常好 沒有給蟑本太多機會壓制反手 及時側身搶拉 差不多是全臺正手 把直拍優點發揮得很極致。
大蟒是我近幾年來最憂心的 他一直在找突破 但是他每場比賽我也擔心他會輸 他不像馬龍這樣的六邊形戰士 大蟒直拍漏洞太明顯而且很容易被預測 他自己也說換新球了需要更多的是反手技術 全臺正手難打天涯 希望大蟒未來能維持這樣的好狀態 再把反手練得更有威脅一點 那這樣肯定可以衝擊2020東京奧運
huu shi 昨天下午大蟒的直播 看的我好紧张
楼主说的很对，真球迷，许昕本身是左手，多年来的训练习惯促使许昕拉球的位置比较薄，旋转会比别的选手更强，这也是他的优势，改了球之后优势就不那么明显了，这也是近年来时常爆冷输球的原因，但是许昕正手拉球带侧拐，力量也大，所以一般对手很不习惯，张本这场就是的。张本志和目前来看击球的质量只是平常，但是落点变化和时间把握的很好，当机会出现绝不拖拉一板，这也是他能赢这么多名将的原因。中国队需要给予重视，2020年他的威胁不大，但是2024应该是他身体和技术的巅峰期，需要重点防备。
huu shi 放你狗屁心。整个中国男队基本都被这个日本小屁孩打败。打法没有新意！
我只能說大蟒這場球打的超帥
我也是許昕多年的球迷. 這幾年他狀態一直找不到, 札不住根的感覺害我好怕有一天突然他就宣佈退役不打了. 這場我看得也是比較開心的. 可是你一直把張本的名字改了來說讓人感到好不尊重的感覺. 大家是運動員, 而且張本在近年乒壇來說是一個好有天份也有足夠實力的選手了. 乒乓球只有一國獨大會好玩嗎?
Were the audience imitating Harimoto's shout whenever he lost a point?
Truely XX os in another level. He seems not to be bothered with that horrible screaming
홍남경 but ma long ang zhang jike seems bothered by that scream, i could see from their face expression in japan open 😂
This made me so happy.
Go Xu!
Well done for xuxin come back. And hiramoto done a good job too, given so much pressure to China team. And I think he doesn't need to be ashamed, as he is so young n talented with huge potential, and already proven himself the top tier players in the world. even defeated by xuxin, it's quite normal, and nothing to be shame of
Thank you Xu-Xin
No more screams in the stadium...
The Screamer still do not know what the manners are in the game.
XX has improved soooo much!! Who could say that, in their first face to face, Harimoto got to lead the match 3 x 1... But eventually lost. But now, the boy is still playing quite stunningly, and even so, doesn't stand a chance against Cloud Walker.
XX seemed to have found some weaknesses in Harimoto's style (something we have not seen very much of!) and really prevented him from playing his game. It looked like he was having great success with his serves; Harimoto rarely made a successful first attack
CloneHat Yes! XX serves were short. And he managed to attack first as soon as was possible. He knows Harimoto does it well!!
5:12 my man is going to headbutt the ground one day screaming like that 😂
Nice,XUxin

Well done xu xin!! Amazing! ! This is really the best ! 👍
3:26 wtf
hes excited lmao
Gustavo Kenzo Goofy’s watching the game
Spectacular play, especially in first 3 sets.
Excellent! Bye Harimoto 👋🏻
XX, like Maze and Kreanga is always a pleasure to watch.. he will never win a WC because of his style and the fact that the chinese know him too well.. but will be missed when retires..
HT had no answer to Xu Xin. His ball placement was just unbelievable.
Harimoto screams like a 300 pound lady jump on him and crush him, calm down dude
How good is Xu Xin❤️❤️🔥
Harimoto should conserve his screaming and channel it to his hits. That will make him better. He spends half his energy probably screaming
Harimoto could have been my hero but rather I love it when he loses. Sooooooooooooo annoying and spoiled when he screams.
@Moel Moel blah blah blah
He is a kid and has to cope with his nervousness. I don't like it neather, but I can understand him.
@ and yet I notice 113 thumbs up to my comment. I rarely get that many so I guess I struck a chord. Harishouter must be annoying. Good but annoying.
@@ricardomurillo5205 it's how he relaxes himself during the game. By shouting
I think Harimoto will be world champion one day! But today he is scream's world champions!!
too many unforced error by Harimoto. Xu Xin feels the ball more in this game.
How was the audience able to disrupt the game so often? Conversing loudly during gameplay of the semis is just asinine. Who is in charge of telling them to stfu or leave? Stunned that the nearby watchers did not police the situation themselves.
Agreed. The asinine noise around 3:24 was a great disrespect to both players.
Since screamingmoto was making ugly noises so I don’t expect the audience to be nice
100% still better than having to listen to CHO!!!!!
You two must not be pong players then... A loud cho is all a part of the game, no matter the intensity. You either have thick skin in table tennis, or you must gtfo...
attrix09 they will never understand that, give up.
Thank you xu xin!
I just want to see that boy lose
Jason Jason he must be the most annoying kid I know.
High level does not mean high sportsmanship anymore with all annoying screams. Xu gave him a good lesson in humility that harimoto may or may not learn.
+Ricardo Murillo
Unfortunately some people never learn. Michael Maze is a player who sometimes gets angry but manages to keep it under control but you have other players like Chen Weixing and Bastian Steger who are constantly angry and on edge. Hopefully the screaming boy does not grow up to be like them
Just see him after like five years, he stops screaming for sure.
Zeus TV but moaning
Xu Xin made awesome blocks, flicks and of course deadly topspin in this world tour. Sometimes he pulled of a strong RPB which surprises me but most of his weak RPB is easy to counter and exploit.
Good job, Xu Xin gave so much pressure on H, it made him no mood to shout.
Xu Xin は、一番好きな選手。ドライブ主戦だが、前、中、後陣どれでもこなす。左特有の曲がるドライブ、臨機応変なプレイはとても魅力的だ。手首の柔らかさ、フットワークも素晴らしい。
the way the clips cut in the middle of harimoto's shouts is hilarious
I love Xu Xin!!!!
6:37 Xu xin moves after Harimoto's push, and still fast enough to take 2 full steps to make that gigantic angle possible. fucking unreal speed and footwork
Respect to XX.
what blade was Xu Xin using for this game?
2:03
Ten year following tt videos. And i dont realize xuxin forehand swing is unpredictable not only for me. But even rank1 wolrd cant predic
Did he stop yelling in the 4th? Finally this kid is learning smth :)
This kid is learning very bad manners...that shouting is not only distracting but also disrespecting towards the senior players. But this kid has very fast and powerful shots.
underrated babe Harimoto,it's so sad
5:10 I would have thought Harimoto has won the match if I didn't see the score.
i love how much he celebrates a rally being down 0-2 haha
never been a better human candidate for a dog barking collar
HM is still so powerful. He will be more seriously powerful from time to time, no metter what the people like or not.
In terms of play style this is what happens when you have Harimoto (Wild Hot 🔥 Fire) V.S. Xu Xin (Control Cool ❄️Ice)
Where and when was this tournament?
So what was the moral of this match kids?
KIDS: NEVER SCREAM AGAINST SERIOUS CHINESE.
@JG Lee bright future of more screaming? He has his mind developed, he should know that he is loud af
Screaming after the point is no different than screaming fans after the point. It’s not like he scream after every hit like in tennis. People just likes to hate.
我觉得张本的吼叫声是不是会影响到他自己的状态？
Thank you xu xin
comments about Harimotos screaming in 3..2..1...
To be fair, I'd rather hear tomo screaming than dima moaning. That makes me feel so uncomfortable.
cancer
weeela n it's hard to ignore his scream, so fcking noisy
Genrel, but some fans apparently love their little boy screaming.
i think the kid has problems , 2:40
Can anyone tell me what blade Xu Xin is using in this match? Is it a Butterfly?
stiga's new blade
haha that harimoto went quiet. can't believe it
to those who said that people are just jealous of harimoto everytime they complained about his screaming and other players do it too..you might want to see other videos of him playing..he screamed like at EVERY point he won and no other player does that more than him..btw i do admire him..and yes i did mute the video but i still can see his facial expression and his screaming voice already recorded in my mind.hahha

Harimoto é mito mais ainda não aguenta contra o xu xin
everyone loses to him, but leave it to Xu Xin to always come out on top
許昕好有大將之風
Xu wrapped the Noisy kid up and posted him to Japan!!
😂
Was this match before Harimomo beat all Chinese players in Japan or after ?
Anyway, hurrah to Xu Xin for beating this young brat.
elau778 this is the latest match, by the way, after the Japan open hatimoto win all chinese players, he now keep losing to chinese players
Lim S.K That's not true.Harimoto lost to Liang Jingkun at Korea Open one week ago,which is after the Japan Open
I rather enjoyed Harimoto 1/4 final match. He was more flex and more relax.

What if China produces another RPBH monster?I do not think Harimoto beats that?

Harimoto will be out of commission for a few tournaments because of excessive back stress
ben parness really?! Where did u read that?
Thanks for cutting off Harimoto’s screams!
XX is the man.
anyone know what xu xins new blade is
Saw venue Melbourne on screen. Harimoto has all the fabulous/basic skills for a competent player but needs to stay cool during the match. Screaming is OK at the end of winning but not throughout the whole match. This has nothing to do with establishing himself in this circuit (he doesn't need it), something that he might not realize at his young age. XX played this match with 100%, no doubt. It makes me wonder if top Chinese players are occasionally told not to win, for unknown reasons.
I love Art tt Xuxin
please hook up microphone to this kid
Its been the kryptonite of the high motivating kid is the Cloud Walker!
Best backhand in the world vs best forehand in the world
6:26 Xu Xin said I am done and I will be winning now
Xu xin was prepared for harimoto skills....
why i fookin’ happy when harimoto “chore machine” lose?
I love Harimoto
thanks god XuXin win,i just hate this kid's screaming,it's very annoying.
Harimoto's weaknesses are being studied as he plays more, but that does not mean he is not learning too and very quickly at that. It is only a matter of time now and the trolls are not going to stop him how ever hard their hearts desire.
Open Kimono we will see then, you think those chinese players won't improve?
great to see xx play like this again. dont be too hard with harimoto, he is still a kid.
Harimotos flips are crazy fast.
経験も体力も精神も足りてない年齢で、多少調子が悪くてもこれだけ戦えるのであれば、何ら悲観することはない
nice match.
I miss you ma long
