This is mental toughness on Timos part. He is a class act and a role model for kids. No insane screaming after ever point- just quiet determination. Wonderful.
I never taught Timo Boll was a world number 1 in 2018. Timo you dont have to retire yet you still got it, most old school are now retired, you can still beat new bloods and show how its done, nice job.
@@rhyzekarnage71544th ball, Timo does a block with his backhand. It's called soft because he goes back with the hand, creating a slow ball and slowing down the game.
Keeping a lead is mostly just a matter of mental strength. And NEVER show your opponent your fear or concerns. It's what drags you down that lifts them up.
It once happened to me in a double. We were 2:10 behind. From then we attacked every ball. And everyone hit, 10 times in a row. Thats about 20 years ago and I still can't believe it.
At 10-4 in the deciding match the pendulum swung from physicality to mentality. Lin Gaoyuan lost the battle in the mind before he lost it over the table.
5:20 First time seeing professional table tennis from this angle. Everything is so much more entertaining from here. I think this goes for most sports such as volleyball. But I understand why they have to do that angled bird-eye's view.
Actually it was the third time in 2017. In Chinese Trials 2017 he led 3-3, 10-7 against Ma Te (lost). Against Xu Xin in WC (led 10-5 and lost). And now Timo (10-4).
Worst reaction ever, he should change his coach. Still can't believe this trash reaction from someone who is supposed to support you in win or in lose ...
I was the 'Lin Gaoyuan' of our annual church fall festival family games where a bunch of us 'regulars' would sign up for table tennis. We were basically 'garage players'. I usually ended up in the final against 'John', and our similiar ages mid-late 50's. I lost 7 years in a row, and using the rediculous 'Dan Seemiller grip.' In 3 of those years I had a 3-to 5 point lead for match and lost (choked) I even tried one year to play him with a traditional penhold grip to beat him, which didn't work at all with that non backhand. The 8th. year I finally beat him going back to the Seemiller grip (which is still a lousy backhand) I ran around almost every backhand to hit a loop forehand, and Im very quick for my age. I think I hit a total of THREE backhands the whole game, the game being 21 points.The ONLY thing I changed was my mental attitude, I was relaxed, and my mindset was to have fun, dont sweat and fume a lost point (common for me UP TO that point) I mostly had a blank expression on my face and only concentrated on the ball and my opponents racket, never even looking at his face, blocking out the children playing other games in the background, the gallery, and others milling around. If l lost a point I forgot about it and played the next point. The game is MANY points. If I won the match great, if he wins, that was O.K., we are not on the world stage as TT professionals. Needless to say I won the match by 5 points, and during that match for one BRIEF moment I thought 'Oh-oh, I'm ahead, now he's gunna catch up and Win'. I threw that outa my mind quick. Winning was wonderful after 7 years of choking the 3 of those 7 years head-to-head matches with John. And after ALL THAT, being 65 years old last year I tried and converted to the Penhold RVP grip and got the dream backhand I never had (for my level) and it's my best shot! I thank the Wang Hao videos, that grip and style. What a wonderful hump to overcome after SEVEN years, BUT I even changed and also improved..I WAS the church member Lin Gaoyuan...LOL!!
this is table tennis! naa gyud panahon nga malason kag kalit. ug naa pud panahon prehas kang timo.. Good Job timo! keep it up caster! really need a heart medication for this game, heart stopping...so thrill...just wow! greetings here from ubec ph.
If you are actively playin tt you kinda get a sence, when the game is over- you feel it when the enemy is mentally so much ahead even if you got a lead- that lead means nothing at that moment. The moment you think about loosing or the enemy being better than you- you loose
Lin Gaoyuan should've tried to serve a long one and fought it out. At the end, he was too predictable with the short reverse pendulum to Boll's forehand and too much reliance with going to his own forehand for the backhand flick
Hindsight is 20/20 and all that but I reckon you're right, a long serve might have been more likely to force the error. Then again, there was a time out and you'd have thought that that the advice he got during the time out was informed on statistics of how TB reacts during points where the pressure is on.
It easier to say that he should have varied the serve. But if you noticed timo ball, he too used the reverse pendulum time and time again and it worked.
Kevin Zheng I really don't understand what Lin did he knew that he would serve him in his FH side as Lin will try to a BH flick so instead he should have just placed the ball and finished it
If it was a match between Chinese players, they might even started a performance with mutual agreement in 10-4 score... That’s how decisive it looks. And yet... Age is just a number to Timo Boll!
@@gabrieloentoro3802 did you at all read what mudi guo wrote? Who is Sandeep Jawahir? How does Mudi know that Sandeep and 2k Chinese fans liked the video? Does he have a secret algorithm to find out who are the actual people to like a YT video to make that statement? That absolutely doesn't make any sense. Got it kiddo?
Timo Boll shares the same smile whether he wins or loses. Such sportsmanship.
He is balanced inside ❤
This is mental toughness on Timos part. He is a class act and a role model for kids. No insane screaming after ever point- just quiet determination. Wonderful.
Yeah. Truly agree. Always screaming really irritating buddy.
its amazing what a headband can do.
I miss Ma Lin :/ Do u ?
It’s actually a bandana
Imagine what he could do if he was wearing a fanny pack also.
Look at ninja
TheQzzyollie He's a Blood
His name is Timo Boll
He must have some hella sponsorship with T-Mobile
was lookin for this comment
tylergesseman123 glad I could help
Like Mizutani with Mizuno
good one
can't believe it took so long for someone to finally draw this analogy
look at to quailty of video. that's what we want for all videos.
Ikr!
Aynen hocam
There is a Turkish guy who watches tt matches.OMG! Ben de de Türküm ve hiçbir Türkün masa tenisi takip ettiğini bilmiyordum
SupErdem12 , maalesef Türkiye'de spor futboldan ibaret :/
М.М KARAKAYA size katılıyorum
T-Mobile is really missing a huge sponsorship opportunity. ;)
Lmaoooo
Hey man, I'm sure Timo followed your down picking advices to improve his wrist strength and his technique :)
Ohhhhh Timo boll, T-mobile, they sound similar! 😂
Big respect to the legend Timo Boll.
I never taught Timo Boll was a world number 1 in 2018. Timo you dont have to retire yet you still got it, most old school are now retired, you can still beat new bloods and show how its done, nice job.
Great commentating by Adam B. Made me noticed that soft block from the backhand at 5:10. Epic match. Legendary performance by Timo.
i dont get it
@@rhyzekarnage71544th ball, Timo does a block with his backhand. It's called soft because he goes back with the hand, creating a slow ball and slowing down the game.
So ITTF offers nice video quality only for unbelievable comeback of Timo ??
😂😂 imagine if ITTF answered this a yes 😂
@@valerianrafael6432 😂😂😂😂
yes
So this is the true quality of ittf.. I see you, I see you.

3:23 even the photgrapher in the background is impressed :D
Haha
was looking for this
I saw that too. Lol
Here 7 years in the future, after Lin Gaoyuan blew a 3-0 lead to Ma Long in the 2024 World Cup final. The choking never ends
Timo is a Legend.
He is over 30 and still in the Game
Boll ist ne absolute Legende. Unfassbar, was sich in vielen seiner Matches abgespielt hat. Ganz großes Kino und einfach unglaublich...🏓😯

Absolutely cool scenario
Indeed
It looked like he was going to cry
Тимо Болл и настольный теннис - это синонимы. Лучший европеец !
Lin: I'm gonna win.
Boll: Uno Reverse Card
Haha bro, so true
more like uno reverse serve
More like: I’m about to end this man’s entire career.
5:20 First time seeing professional table tennis from this angle. Everything is so much more entertaining from here. I think this goes for most sports such as volleyball. But I understand why they have to do that angled bird-eye's view.
This happened twice to lin this year. Feel bad for him.
Fredrick Lompero the other one was against xu xin right?
romeo rey gingoyon yup.
Me to
Too*
Maybe just a bad mind
This never gets old.
This here is pure experience. Lin was a promising player back then but Timo had nearly 15 years more under his racket. What a comeback he had!
Def one of the greatest comebacks to this day.
Thrilling! The world needs to know how exciting table tennis is 🏓
This is what experience gives you. A heart of a champion and a mental strength of a legend
Chinese team gonna beat Lin when he gets home.
Jake Giuliano hahahahhah
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not exactly.. They are all always wary of Timo Boll.. Over the decades!!
Invokations A what exactly do you mean?
Invokations A lmao my ass
Great quality of the video. Hope that ittf will upload all there videos in 1080p/50
6:40 "If you do this shit a third time, trust me you'll go in jail !"
I really wonder what he told him there
Liu Guozheng: Let me tell you a story about kim taek soo...
as if to rub in salt you get lectured by Liu Guozheng of all people
lol ikr Liu Guozheng, the comeback king, scolds you for losing to a comeback
Actually it was the third time in 2017. In Chinese Trials 2017 he led 3-3, 10-7 against Ma Te (lost). Against Xu Xin in WC (led 10-5 and lost). And now Timo (10-4).
The quality is so good even scoreboard flags are moving lmao
Respect still remains in 2019!!!
決勝局從領先打到被逆轉,這在中國選手之中相當罕見...感謝波爾帶來這麼精采的比賽
Best quality I have ever seen in tabletennis videos
Look at Lin's coach reaction throwing fit and all 😂 priceless
Worst reaction ever, he should change his coach. Still can't believe this trash reaction from someone who is supposed to support you in win or in lose ...
That’s Liu Guozheng… how ironic cause Liu himself saved 7 match points against Kim Taek Soo in that 2001 Osaka team match in the deciding match.

why does LGY act like hes about to lose when its 10-4?
Tony Ma maybe it’s because of he knows that Timo Boll is to good at epic comebacks
@@MrAlex-lk8zn Ufff 😂

Just because he's a loser. Lady Lin, that's his nickname in the CNT.
because it's rigged
Lin Gaoyuan- Hao Shuai of this generation.
Travelator so true haha
Timo is the best
I wish I could play with him😭
Timo, big player with big heart
TIMO is really HERO!!!
I just love the fact that Adam Bobrow is commentator
Big balls of an unbeatable veteran.
Evan Zeng big balls of timo boll ))
He’s beatable
1:39 “It’s never over until it’s over.” -Confucius
no it's rocky balboa
бундай камбек қилиш учун жуда кучли асаб ва ирода керак, қойил Тимо Болл
1:34 en ese momento Lin sintió el verdadero terror, y se arrepintió de haber forzado a Boll a que jugara con todas sus fuerzas xdddddd
Good way to spend time in quarantine - by watching German tennis legend.
Timo is too cool for this energetic game.
Poor Lin, he was weak on mental level, but not anymore.... Now he is more mental strong is on top 3 best china players.
I am glad to hear that buddy
Timo Ball. The legend
Love Timo but my heart went out to Lin this time. Poor chap, it was a mental defeat for him than physical
Timo: "This match was hell for my back!" 6:28
Timo was enjoying the match! That's the secret
The video Quality is so inegal on this channel.......
Timo Boll you are amazing.
Lin Gaoyuan should've tried to serve a long one and fought it out. At the end, he was too predictable with the short reverse pendulum to Boll's forehand and too much reliance with going to his own forehand for the backhand flick
Was wondering about the bh flick myself. Why didn't he just play his FH instead of move to play w/ BH?
Hindsight is 20/20 and all that but I reckon you're right, a long serve might have been more likely to force the error. Then again, there was a time out and you'd have thought that that the advice he got during the time out was informed on statistics of how TB reacts during points where the pressure is on.

He is my hero, I wanna play like Timo
That's what legends r made of...
respect for timo
After every point it's like the guy knows that's the comeback is going to happen and can't do anything to avoid it!
"Its never over until its over"
:P
ちゃんと解説が水谷が許昕にあと一本のところから巻かれた試合にもちゃんと言及していて流石だと思った
Quality is fantastic
This is one of the best match i ever seen in my feel tim ball is my favourite non chinese player
What a great comeback!😱
Man this T-Mobile guy is amazing :D :D :D
Amazing match
an all time great comeback
Lin Chokeyuan
Keith 😂😂
When you've played 2 grand slam events and you've already become a meme lol
He was so nervous and lost himself in last 5 balls
6:39 Coach to Lin, "you think this is tough? Just wait....."
найкращий комбек за історію настільного теніса)
Can't even imagine the pressure and rage from Lin.
That's why I love timo boll. Who agrees?
Still amazing in 2024 🎉😊
Para mim, a melhor partida do ano!
So was the upcoming Ma Long match next for Timo? If so, then WOO, people were in for more surprises!
Timo is playing mind games
What a Legend ! 🙌
What a comeback.
Bool, medium and long billiards, very stable and strong, this is a scoring tool !
The best comeback ever.
Headband Timo, Headband Klay, I need to get myself a headband too!
Тимо крассавчик)))) железные нервы!
both are amazing
Thank you
Knew he was going to win. Still amazing.
Fantastic
Hätte gerne den ganzen 7. Satz gesehen
If it was a match between Chinese players, they might even started a performance with mutual agreement in 10-4 score... That’s how decisive it looks.
And yet... Age is just a number to Timo Boll!
1:40 you can hear French Timo fans shout : "Aller Timo, Aller Timo, aller"
