It's simply a brilliant game for both players. Ma Lin is obviously seen much more mature and calm very experience, he succesfully explored his mental strength against the raising star Ma Long who at the end must admitted the best of Ma Lin. Very amazing and interesting game.
This match is better than any Jedi fight, maybe the greatest match of all time. Ma Lin is the true legend of table tennis as a player then as a captain of team China who rules over the world of ping-pong since twenty years. Ma Long is the best tennis player of history but that not enought against Ma Lin the wizard ;) The public was lucky.
This is the best of the best of MA Lin. Beating MA Long who is a solid player rarely anyone can beat is MA Lin greatest accomplishment. According to statistic information, MA Lin beat more than 88% of the time against his opponent. He is the greatest of all time. Play 7 times in world championship game and won 4 world championship, 1 Olymbic Gold, won single, double, and team champion for gold which no one has done. He play since 5 for about 30 years and retired, but did come out for exibition show game afterward.
Totally agree with the point of this being the best of the best of Ma Lin. But according to statistics in ITTF official page, Ma Long has a 93,5% win percentage. Ma Long only needs 1 Olympic Crown to be better than Ma Lin, sadly for his fans. Ma Lin had his time. Now is the time for Ma Long and Xu Xin (although I personally think that Xu Xin will low his rythm) and soon will be Fan Zhendong time ;)
Never been world champion singles. Surely if you are the greatest you should have won that. Wang Liqin won it 3 times. Waldner 2 times + olympics as well. Ma LIn is a fantastic player and a legend but not the all time best.
Poor Ma Lin, great player as he was, never won the WTTC Single Title. If I am correct, 3 times runner-up. Nevertheless, he defeated Waldner back in 1999 in the WTTC semi-final as a new player. Since then, he became the table tennis maestro for many years. However, I think he did not peak at the right time and lost to Wang Li Qin twice in the WTTC finals. He also lost to Liu Guo Liang in the 1999 WTTC Final.
Ma Long did find out the weak spot of Ma Lin at the beginning: Ma Lin's entire right side ! However, for some reason, Ma Long did not follow through to the rest of the game. Any way, I have learned something here that if you can put the pen-holder aggressor to his left and attack his right empty side with a surprise. That is the only way to force a pen-holder to become a defender, and a pen-holder defender usually is a poor defender ! George Wu, AIA 2012-5-27
Ma Lin has a deceptive bottom spin serve, where he immediately follows up the chop/slice by quickly flipping the racket and delivering a false top spin. The result is a chop serve that looks like top spin. It fooled the commentator consistently, and Ma Long once or twice.
A young Ma Long made a lot of judgement mistakes which I think that wouldn't happen after 2015. This match reminds me of how the Dragon lost to Wang Hao at both WTTC semifinals. The Dragon is confused by the speed and spin variations from an old and wily Ma Lin.
Both are amazing player. In fourth game, come back of Ma Lin was something very surprising for me... Thank you for uploading this match,,

I wish I could play like they warm up. It's such a great feeling to crack the ball at that pace. So fun.
My favourite match !
Ma Long's extraordinary psychological strength make him the best player in the world, we can see that through the first turn.
these guys are so good
I like MA Long. He is very tactical
Same here.
Why do they keep wiping the table? Both of them are doing it in the same place -- the top left of their side. Thanks.

Ma Lin he is a great player wwooww
It's simply a brilliant game for both players. Ma Lin is obviously seen much more mature and calm very experience, he succesfully explored his mental strength against the raising star Ma Long who at the end must admitted the best of Ma Lin. Very amazing and interesting game.

Best traditional penhold. Rare to see it now a days. Now they hold modern penhold style.

Just went on to comments mid video to see if anyone had mentioned the commentator. Wish I hadn't read the outcome
And 2 years after my comment, Ma Long turned out to be Olympic champion :P Feels so nice ^^
there's another great one with Ma Lin v. Zhang Jike...who took Silver against Ma Long, and Gold in Team. :)
Dear commentator, please tell us what is meant by "Nothing shot" ?
+Aman Srivastava im not the commentator but, it means a shot for nothing?
Made in China Legends!!!

Who is the sports commentator here?
Ma Long has got a long way to go after 2011. George Wu, AIA,ARHITECT,NCARB 207-6-28
But that's reasonable! He's truly magician :)
who was the commentator here?

He also lost to Liu Guo Liang in the 1999 WTTC Final.
nonono, Liu Guo Liang is his teacher when Liu Guo Liang was not in the WTTC anymore, and then Ma Lin becomes is the greatest
good game
Love penholders, traditional or RVP...
China number 1
Jossss, Ora umum.. mantaaap
Regarding the negative comment about stating the match result. Why would you want to look at the comments before you watch the match?
Ma Long did find out the weak spot of Ma Lin at the beginning: Ma Lin's entire right side ! However, for some reason, Ma Long did not follow through to the rest of the game. Any way, I have learned something here that if you can put the pen-holder aggressor to his left and attack his right empty side with a surprise. That is the only way to force a pen-holder to become a defender, and a pen-holder defender usually is a poor defender ! George Wu, AIA 2012-5-27
Ma long very consisten
One of the most mental games ever

17:05 WHat serve is that? THe commentator says topspin but malong pushed it back?
Ma Lin has a deceptive bottom spin serve, where he immediately follows up the chop/slice by quickly flipping the racket and delivering a false top spin. The result is a chop serve that looks like top spin. It fooled the commentator consistently, and Ma Long once or twice.
I wish i can meet ma lin and ma long 😔 im a ping pong player too im from ph

马林是乒坛传奇啊！
那必须的！
British commentary is not so much technically descriptive, and treads the middle ground, but is interesting and worth listening to.
that good tenis the table
Được đấy

Its a tradition for most people, as well as it wipes the sweat off their hands and keeps their racket and hand dry.
Сплошная крутизна.
I like the commentator just fine. Thumbs up.
Diamond hard on might say...jeez
37:55
20:07 that is hard, I think
ma long was higher on the ranking that moment and still, why only superlatives for ma lin..?
Beacause Ma Lin WAS...
Ma Lin was Ma Lin and Ma Long the paper no1 who had won nothing at the time.
Isthe best
מי יועד איזה גומיות יש להם??
wait how can people sitting that high up see the ball?
A young Ma Long made a lot of judgement mistakes which I think that wouldn't happen after 2015. This match reminds me of how the Dragon lost to Wang Hao at both WTTC semifinals. The Dragon is confused by the speed and spin variations from an old and wily Ma Lin.
yes but youth gives energy
the older you become the more experience you gain but you lose alot of power and speed
so its better young
The commentary person is on shrooms he keeps talking about magic and harry potter hahaha ;D
But crazy game Ma lin is doing really well for his age :P
because their hands are sweaty
Roger Liu moms spaghetti he's nervous
Awsome match ... but sorry son Ma long .. Papa of the Game Ma lin is the best everr

People knock the Brittish commentator unfairly here because he is not table tennis 'technical'. I rather enjoyed him because he WASN'T.
i didn't know Sean Connery is a table tennis commentator.
Doesnt even sound like him
They look like father and son
4:18 ma lin is using his voodoo
