Wang Chuqin is getting so much better. Ma Long seemed very slow and doesnt have any motivation. After spending energy on major tournaments, this is when his performance drops like the previous years. He needs a break instead of playing. He shouldnt even participate in Korea and Australia Opens.
Just one word to describe Wang, DANGEROUS. He was strong over the table, targeting MA long's wide forehand, outsmarting the GOAT and not falling for MA long's tricks. He even do it with an Injury and that's the most amazing part.He will be the next world champion for sure.
What a marvelous win for Wang! He played a really smart game. Pretty much a textbook match for the new ITTF ball. At such a young age, he has pretty much all the shots, smarts, tactics and mental focus. If he can keep this up, the sky is the ceiling for him. This is why he won the Youth Olympics last year over Harimoto. The scary thing is that he can only gets better.
Totally agree. But don't forget there's also Lin Yun-Ju. Considering CNT has more supporting environment and research, WCQ has more chance then LYJ. But who knows...
Even though Ma long played very smart and tried all his tactics, Wang is so powerful and consistent on his forehand. When I watched Wang beat the screaming kid in earlier match, I can tell Wang is at his top performance in this tournament.
Wang Chuqin played at almost godlike level while Ma Long is a 30 year old player showing wear and tear in his physical and mental game after 4 back to back tournaments.
Phenomenal play by both Wang was the better player on the court today However did anyone notice ma long having relatively close matches against non Chinese players that he usually dominates
Lol ittf page has all the spoilers. If you want to avoid spoilers than just get out of RUclips 😒😒 Early or late post, ITTF still get criticized, this is how BS people are nowadays
I don't think highlights is supposed not to spoil it in any sport. ITTF is just like all other federations in uploading the highlights. That's just highlights not a live show though bro
WCQ is a young beast. So humble, so mature, so young. Wasn't it the injury, he might have beaten XX as well. I really can't decide whom to stand for among ML, XX, WCQ, LGY! But as I love penhold, I pick XX first :D
if the men's final could be set in the next day just like the women's singles, so wang chuqin had the chance to rest and adjust his lower chest mescle more. The men's final was kind of boring to watch, wang couldn't really full swing his forehand. the final just leaned to one side. but the semi-finals were really exciting.
Ma long is sluggish by his standard... made many errors during his signature forehand counter rally. He also lost many first set recently... which is atypical. Maybe age is finally catching up on him.. Wang moves very well and balanced on both wings.
ML needs a mentor who can chart a course to his next WC. He needs to conserve his energy for the very best. Yuppies are a plenty now and he cannot take them all all the time.
Again...ML is not even trying, and is not his age, i think is motivation or maybe is taking care to avoid injuries, you can compare the hungry dragon footwork before WTTC and this poor version of ML. In the other hand, WCQ is playing awesome, but XX with some powerful strokes and very good footwork, as usual, beat Him 4-0.
As soon as you watch him play you know he's gonna be amazing for years if he keeps working hard and is good mentally at the end of games..he's so quick and consistent, like a better version of LG
WC played great because ML took it easy on him that is my humble opinion. I think the Chinese team is grooming and building confident in the next generation. I do see that WC has become a much better player in this tournament...a lot less error.
Yeah it's annoying af, if these fans follows other players than Ma Long they would know that a lot of players has improved significantly. But of course it's has to be that Ma Long is tired and don't have the desire to win BS.
I won't discredit WCQ, he got talent, attitude and mentality, the perfect successor for The Dragon. But you cannot deny that Ma Long WAS injured (and no press release from him that states he has fully recovered from it) and IS INDEED TIRED (Champion of Qatar, WTTC and China Open, runner up of Asian Cup and Korean Open). Regarding his lost desire, I disagree with that since from the interview after China Open, he said that he still want to fight, he hasn't reach the enlightenment yet.
"Я успеваю улыбнуться - я видел, кто придет за мной". Ма Лун местами явно давал ему поиграть в свою игру. Парень хватался за эти шансы и отрабатывал очень высококлассно. Школа, талант, психическая устойчивость - все при нем. Будущий мировой лидер.
@@fraer111 Согласен. На данный момент Ван самый перспективный, на мой взгляд. Взять к примеру Лина, техника отличная, но хватает бойцовского характера и психической устойчивости, чтобы быть лучшим.
The dragon giving the flag to another dragon, here it come, I was very sad when I saw ma long beaten from any one except for this time , because i knew that Wang is waiting for his time to fly over the ittf world (not fsd)a born for a new dragon and new dectator. But the question is can Wang beat ma long in his top form? I don't think so.
He earned it. I feel like Ma Long backhand is not as strong as the one of younger players. Maybe a general switch in playing style from forehand dominance to backhand dominance is coming
@@Kevin-zl3ci ohhh whoops I misunderstood sorry. Yeah FZD was my most favourite player when I started playing, but ever since he started going downhill, Ma Long has taken the spot. I really hope we can get back the FZD that destroys anyone (except Ma Long) he comes across 🙁
@@귤귤-t5l hahaha it's no problem, I just wanna defend FZD rn, cause people are kind of doubting and putting him down, so I'm trying to defend him when I can😁😁😁
It definitely looks like Ma Long has lost his hunger for the game at the moment. The truth is his playing style is probably the most demanding ever physically, and without a high degree of motivation, he isn't nearly the same player. Will he find a strong inner drive come the Tokyo Olympic next year? Let's hope so.
Nah his drive never wears down. He's just chilling until the Olympics. He has nothing to prove. He just has to stay in good condition and not overstrain himself.
Ma Long in my opinion should switch from DHS rubber to Tenergy or Any other rubber. His style with this age already requires less energy consumtion rubbers.😊😀
The outstanding young generation table tennis player like Wang Chuqin, they always fight to play with no fear, no hesitation and so much confidence in any match that even a dictator like Ma Long won't bring any special threat or pressure to them in the match and they'll just fight with their best to the end as usual that who will win the match in the final when they both meet like in this match will be then hard to tell and absolutely unpredictable beforehand. The so called dictator players like Ma Long. Xu Xin or Fan Zhendong etc. must be very careful from this moment…
Well I won't be too sure about that, wcq just has more motivation to perform better and prove himself. Lgy has been playing a lot of tournaments and he's pretty burnt out, like fzd and ljk. He'll bounce back soon
BetterDanGaming i watched LGY since U21 in 2010, only backhand is impressive. imo he is not a very good double player too although as a left hand player.
Well the thing is the leader position is still up for debate. Last year, Fan Zhendong is on the rise, Xu Xin still stuck in a swamp, Wang Chuqin is the strongest out of CNT U-20 but he still focused on Junior World Tour, Lin Gaoyuan mentality was weak, Liang Jingkun haven't showed any good result. Now if we look at this year, FZD is falling, Xu Xin is rising, WCQ is making a name for himself, LGY mentality is getting better, while LJK hasn't got any fame. So who got to be the leader then?

9:42, even though WCQ missed that shot by hitting the edge of the blade, you could see how powerful that shot is and how quick his footwork is.
The dragon and his “junior”. Both player display a good performance. Congratulation to WCQ he might have bright carrier in the future
career
Watching his performance, I have a prediction here that WCQ will be world NO.1 in some day in the future🌝
Totally true
but xu xin 4:0 beat WCQ.
Totally agree.
But don't forget there's also Lin Yun-Ju. Considering CNT has more supporting environment and research, WCQ has more chance then LYJ. But who knows...
tom liu come one la! U can’t say for just one game! WSQ born in 2000. WSQ has more chances in the future!
@@krystallin6233 ya,maybe WCQ would be the NO.1,but I just want to say there is 2 matches between Xu xin and WCQ and the result is Xu xin always win.
This 19 year old is lightning fast. Future world champion, we'll see..
"Form is temporary, Class is forever". Ma Long will come back in the near future!
Der Diktator ist dennoch unsterblich xD
Ma Long seemed to be tired
Is this for real?? My god..What a performance by WC beating the dragon,the dictator 😱😱
Karthik Udayasankar nowadays dictator becomes a democrat.
Next World Champion
I really hope xu xin gets the chance of playing in the olympics for China 🇨🇳
I think you mean the singles, he has already played olympics but in team. But I agree

Yep, saw that the second time I watch the play
Wang the new #1 !!!!!! Im your fan guy...amazing!!!!
go! go! Wang Chuqin! my new favorite player!
Phenomenal play by both

Great play from Wang. But the Dragon will sleep till 2020. Not even 60%.
Great comment.
Oh yes,Ma Long won the most important tournament in this year, wait for Olympics
ML was obviously tired in the last game, starting off with such a big trailing
CNT needs to focus on WCQ and not LGY lol

Ma Long doesn't seem to be as fast as he used to be. He has won many Slams. I think he is a little jaded.
Marcus Wong I agree with that.
He is quite weak than used to be...
but he will recover soon.
Everyone has slumps.
He hadn’t lost to a foreigner so far unlike Fan Zhendong.
Ma long has got over 30+ gold medals, maybe he can't find any passion in these games anymore.
@@athan2274 I agree. He is no longer hungry for such titles. He plays his best for the Grand Slams.
Only Ma long is my idol in table tennis

Wang CQ is young and plays faster. Ma Long was hard to win on relay with him. Wang CQ will be No. 1 sooner or later.
no, Patrick Franciska will beat him
That’s for sure Wang will be the best one day. I knew it.
As soon as you watch him play you know he's gonna be amazing for years if he keeps working hard and is good mentally at the end of games..he's so quick and consistent, like a better version of LG

Chuqin on his way of being a world men champion.

Do we see changing of guards? I thought harimoto will replace ML as top player but after watching WC beat him and now ML,, I changed my mind.
Harimoto never has chance to be number 1, so many Chinese players are better than him.
