Am impressed with the way Aruna played here, but ma long was just better in all department. Hey Aruna been no.11 in world is no joke. Keep improving ur game and tactics. Big love to you............from Nigeria
@@premjitchowdhury262 And why is that? Chinese players are the best in this sport. If you go with expertise and merit - very many ping pong aficionados would support Chinese players.
Sad way to end a good video. I wanted to see the chemistry between the players at the end . "A pad on the back and a smile with respect and love" 💕 nice game
How can you end on 10-10??? Either way I am amazed by how much pressure Quadri Aruna can bring on. Some of his opening attacks are just crazy aggressive and he makes it work. Much respect to both players!
Its testament to Aruna's talents to perform at this level, with no where near the training and calibre of players to practice against, coaching and resources to improve to one's maximal potential with.
From what I have read, the reason for this "lazy" high camera angle is NOT for the best table tennis viewing experience, but is to make sure all the sponsors' logos can be seen fromm a high and wide camera angle. In other words money trumps the spectators satisfaction. We should not waste our time complaining to ITTF, WTT, nor any other table tennis governing bodies. But we should redirect our complaints the viewing experience to the sponsors, letting them know that we are not satisfied with way in which the content is being presented. If the sponsors complain to them , they may switch back to the spectators' preferred viewing angle.
People need to understand that's it's not only about "your perfect viewing experience". If it's for sponsors it's a good thing. Table tennis is STARVING. Especially if you consider its popularity. Do you think WTT pockets all that money? They don't. If you want the sport you love to grow and become more prestigious and popular we need this money! It makes it more viable for professional players to get into the sport and keep playing instead of sacrificing their whole lives for little to no reward. The prize pools have increased and there are more events for lower tiers. Furthermore, even though directing decisions may not be perfect, this arena is beautiful, video quality has improved *dramatically* compared to the blurry crap it was a couple years ago, there is a new app to find content and schedules and match highlights are released much faster. Not everything is perfect but things are happening! But people ignore everything because "bAd CaMeRa aNGle".
I think maybe when they were keeping score on the screen they messed up? Checked the website and apparently the last game ended in 9-11 for Ma Long victory
Impressive Performance Aruna. Wow, Aruna you have improved quite alot especially your backhand you have a surprise spin-wack to your backhandnow, comes out every now and then. But please your backhand needs a lot more improvement. Practice more spin drive backhand ball returns, rather than just punching every backhand ball. I have seen how your opponents in other tournaments take advantage of this fact that you punch most of your backhand shots. You have to have a surprise factor to your backhand shots mix it up to keep your opponents guessing. Then onto your Forehand, it's quite powerful. But after 2, 3 or 4 Rallies it becomes inaccurate and inconsistent. In this match especially you missed quite a bit of Follow up Forehand shots, Especially, the ones you have to twist your body to make. Practice more long away from the table Forehand drills shots to build some consistency in it. 🇳🇬Good luck And keep Moving up!!! 🇳🇬
I think Aruna tried to slow the game which effected Ma Longs game very much in the second set. But after the rallys became faster Ma Long showed his trough power
@@timuitdewilligen Yes, Aruna played very good tactical game. But, Ma Long missed a lot of easy kill that he normally doesn't. But that's not a surprise because consistency is always a probably for most of players at this age.
@@arshiachidambaram7764 Not quite. Even if he performed better in the match against WCQ, that doesn't change the fact that he didn't look great in this match.
PLEASE WTT, GIVE US BACK THE LOWER, DYNAMIC, 3-D CAMERA ANGLE THAT WE WERE JUST ENJOYING! THIS BIRD'S EYE VIEW FLATTENS EVERYTHING AND MAKES IT 2-DIMENSIONAL!
Terrible coverage. It's ridiculous when the camera follows the ball toss into the air then cuts away so you can't see the contact. Plus they cut the match point. Fire the producer and director.
Ma long played very strange in the second set. But he became much better the faster the rallys became. Ma long plays way better against Chinese players in my opinion. When the rhythm is too slow Ma Long seem to have problems.
Had to gut it through the WTT "eff the fans" camera angle to watch the GOAT play. The side angle provides zero information on spin and makes the game look like a video game from the 90s. Great job, WTT -- you continue to alienate fans who actually play the game, while trying to target the casual non-fans who will never even watch or appreciate these videos...
He lost the second set "cause he couldn"t match him from mid distance.It's not surprising 'cause his knees are shot and compensates with huge swings just like Aruna but Aruna is just taller.
@@robertod893 cant agree more. Its not just pure athletic performance that makes Ma Long so good. His table tennis IQ makes him who he is. Same as Timo :)
I believe the final will be Liang Junkin vs Wang Chuqin. Liang is showing crazy strength the last couple of tournaments. I really like his playing style. But we can't underestimate Ma Longs power. I think he had some troubles because of the slower pace in the first two sets. But I believe he will play way better against Chinese players
Do not understand why insist on taking pictures from this angle is not football! The angle behind the player is an angle that gives the pleasure of watching table tennis
why is nowadays Table Tennis game looking less and less like a serious sport?? This one definitely looks like a bar or a video game layout. Where are the blue tables and red rubber floors? I don't even want to mention Aruna's green paddle... geeze
People be like Ma is playing slow n all! Really!!! Come on. You can't nuke a country which you can take with guns. No offense to QA. He played fantastic. He has improved a lot. But if anyone watching Ma's play, then you've noticed Ma brings out all his weapons when it comes to final of a tournament. Just go n watch him playing against Dima in Tokyo 2020 n final against FZD. He doesn't do much effort in league matches where he can win easily
utterly disgusting camera angle from wtt, shame on you guys, even if i were to spit on this angle, the angle would be unworthy of,, and what about the score towards the end? how can they make such a mistake at such a crucial point in the match,,,,,,for God's sake, come back to the normal angle like ittf used to have
Am impressed with the way Aruna played here, but ma long was just better in all department. Hey Aruna been no.11 in world is no joke. Keep improving ur game and tactics.
Big love to you............from Nigeria
He's better yes for him Aruna was an awkward player to play against.
Any player from any country against Chinese would get support from all the crowd.
@@premjitchowdhury262 And why is that? Chinese players are the best in this sport. If you go with expertise and merit - very many ping pong aficionados would support Chinese players.
If you are "better in all dpt" you dont lose almost 2 sets, shut ur mouth
Sad way to end a good video. I wanted to see the chemistry between the players at the end . "A pad on the back and a smile with respect and love" 💕 nice game
I agree. The reaction at the end is nice to see..
Trt ist 56ggffgggggggggggggv'
5:53 this is the angle we want
Nope
Too much behind the player for my sake. It would be better to have the same angle that they used at WTT Muscat
@@adrian16281 at least it is better than the actual
@@deinemutter2061 that is true
no, if the person is right handed the camera should be coming from the elft, the angle is good if it is the same height from the left side.
Aruna is really on the top level now. Amazing play against the dragon.
He first need to learn how to serve legally
@@mrmf4712 What's wrong with his serves?
@@mrmf4712 Please respect the judges. They know the rules.
How can you end on 10-10???
Either way I am amazed by how much pressure Quadri Aruna can bring on. Some of his opening attacks are just crazy aggressive and he makes it work. Much respect to both players!
The last few points are displayed wrong. The game is ended. The video shows all.
@@StephenHui726 The umpire even says 10 all
Aruna's form is crazy!
Its testament to Aruna's talents to perform at this level, with no where near the training and calibre of players to practice against, coaching and resources to improve to one's maximal potential with.
Quadri's movements are so much different than the other players. It's very fun to watch a player that is different.
Thanks WTT for ruining the experience by inventing this awesome viewing angle, really - out of the world
Because they don't realize that only table tennis players watch table tennis!
@@istvanwasserThat's actually very accurate.
@@istvanwasseryeah this is so horribly true
Quadri has one of the most powerful forehands in the world. If he improved his backhand, he would reach top 5.
Agree
He still have chance now? 34 yo already.
Yes 35 and hes improving you see age is just a number never underestimate the power of will@@gwstws
sorry but what about the last point(s)? Video stops at 10-10, 2-1 Ma Long...
I checked the site, Ma Long wins.
Quadri Aruna 1 - 3 Ma Long
Umpire made a fault before, the actual score before last point was MA 10-9 Aruna.
it could be that the last few points were all errors, not much to see.
The score board was wrong. Ma Long won the 11-9 the final game.
@@mytube30005 Thanks!
I hate the camera angle...
Yes yes yes....we should raise our voice....no spin ... nothing is visible
Exactly
Wow quadri, a big inspiration. Love from 🇳🇬
Nigerians tsking ober ebetything
Aruna's forehand movement is so unique, even weird, but powerful....
It's an unknown enchanted skill from Africa😏
Quadri Aruna played well against Ma long! This is impressive
wow, by this performance, I can say Aruna can beat any top player on a good day
Him good and them bad day. At least the chinese.
Nope... Can't beat top player any day unless a miracle happens❗
@@shanelawson5072 Liang from China is a top player and Aruna has defeated this year
@@GhanaTableTennis Oh really? A true miracle... like I said.
Miracles DO happen sometimes.
Not the top trio viz., Fan Zhendong, XuXin and Ma Long.
Ma long playing only with heavy spin and counters, what a genius.
The camera angle of 5:51 is perfect
Checked the website and apparently the last game ended in 9-11 for Ma Long victory, probably just messed up the score at some point
Yes at 7-9 Aruna missed the ball hit ma long's leg.
Very nice game. I love to see Aruna play. IMO he never have been better. He plays an old style of table tennis but damn he is good at it!

Hello hello
I am getting angry
Thank you for posting these highlight! It would be very nice if you put the players' rankings/seed next to their names like in tennis.
💯
What the hect, no end?

Good to see Quadri's BH has improved a lot.
Though he won, Ma Long doesn't look like he's in the best shape right now.

@@pham1020 he wasnt trying, aruna is nothing compared to a full try ma long, see against wang chuqin when he needs to win he will try

Can anyone tell me do they allow to use green rubber? Especially in World lvl tourney?
WHY THIS ANGLE?!?
did the video end at 10-10?? or is the score board wrong, that was 11-9 to ML?
Terrible coverage. It's ridiculous when the camera follows the ball toss into the air then cuts away so you can't see the contact. Plus they cut the match point.
Fire the producer and director.
WHERE IS THE END WTT????
Wrong score ma long win last set 11-9

This is a bit too high tbh but if we slightly lower (like it often is) it would be perfect for me. Still not as bad as you describe it imo.
could you change the angle please like the angle in 0:45
Who do you think has the better forehand in topspin rallies between these two?
Ma Long of course
Quadri Aruna
@@Bukolaajayi Ma Long no doubt mate !
He lost the second set "cause he couldn"t match him from mid distance.It's not surprising 'cause his knees are shot and compensates with huge swings just like Aruna but Aruna is just taller.
@WTT Please add the players’ current world ranking, as well as tournament seed number, to the score graphic.
I thought when you toss up the ball for a serve it has to have an almost vertical trajectory but aruna throws it far back this is legal?
3:12. This is one of the best forehands I've EVER SEEN!!!! ✔️ CHECK THIS OUT
Where is end game? Who is won?
Proudly 🇳🇬
Is this Best of 5? Or 7
Well done quadri keep doing what you doing ma long was finding it difficult to read your game which is a big improvement keep it 👍
some tough luck to play the dictator in r32...Quadri is my favorite player, punching gorilla backhand is genius
So who win?
Big Ma Long fan here, but let‘s be honest: Can you imagine him beating Wang Chuqin in the last 16? I can‘t.
I can’t imagine him losing a single match before someone actually beats him. He’s the goat and still in his peak.
@@robertod893 cant agree more. Its not just pure athletic performance that makes Ma Long so good. His table tennis IQ makes him who he is. Same as Timo :)
Ma long shows up when it comes to international tournaments. I think he will beat WCQ
Are you kidding are you basing this on his performance here because Aruna played amazing here!
I believe the final will be Liang Junkin vs Wang Chuqin. Liang is showing crazy strength the last couple of tournaments. I really like his playing style. But we can't underestimate Ma Longs power. I think he had some troubles because of the slower pace in the first two sets. But I believe he will play way better against Chinese players
Does Aruna coach himself?
Do not understand why insist on taking pictures from this angle is not football! The angle behind the player is an angle that gives the pleasure of watching table tennis
what's up with this shit camera angle again. They've got to fire their media manager....
Кто выиграл?
INteresting match
time to launch during match?????? bad work really
Aruna tiene una potencia increíble
what a video. no ending 😂
would be a great match to watch if not for the angle of the camera
man please add slow motion replay!
What is the deal with the stupid camera angles? I have not watched any new table tennis videos just because of this
wtf where is the end of 5th set
This is angle is so bad... Not able to see POV of any player in this angle. Hope they change it...
這場球讓我們重溫了典型的乒乓運動
What is the point of these highlight videos? Cutting points out, even critical as the last ones. Who was the genius behind this...
I’m not Malong fan but he is GOT , I am a fan of quadro .
big super star, Aruna who does not only play a good game but also attract more African kids to join into the event
Big dislike due to the side angle
Awful view. Need to be from end corner of table angle view. (5:50)
Me wandering why they're usually so dramatic with their serving😂
Aruna's backhand is his Achilles
Though strong forehand
Quite different styles of play, each being awkward to the other upon any return or rally.
Amazing Quadri
Probably my last video which I wanted on this event. Side angle view ruins everything.
Of course I will unfollow this channel
@World Table Tennis
So do that. That will be one less complainer.
@@taiwoidowu2854 I will continue complaining under every video with a Side angle. Count on me!

Football boots don't come in the same colors , just saying tho .
Aruna gifts his opposition to many points, let them work for it man
5:54 YEAH JUST KEEP THIS ANGLE!!!!!!!!!
Ok so we have to live with this shitty angle for all our life now !!!!
No we can stand up against this shit!
The great captain,the great dictator table tennis is Long Ma strongest chinese player into the world 🇨🇳🏓🇭🇺!
Saya suka quadri aruna dgn pakain hitamnya melambangkan kekuatan yang sufer pawer
It’s always the people who I’m routing for always lose 😢😂
Эм, у него вся накладка зелёная?
Once Ma Long gets a hang of playing Quadri, there is no turning back. It’s just a matter of time.
The second game was just a blip.
In fairness. Aruna was winning on those power forehand rallies.
非洲老哥这个后仰正手真是一绝，但是反手和步伐不行。
May be Aruna would have a better chance winning if he buys a professional paddle in place of this light green plastic one that kids play with! 😂😂😂
Don’t show highlights …

poor Aruna. Playing against someone he does not want to play.
