Jun Mizutani vs Petr Korbel[Japan Open 2011]

[siteswaper531]

Korbel played amazingly in this game. That said, props to Mitzutani for keeping his cool. I'm sure he didn't expecting Korbel to be so consistent, such great footwork, etc., but Mitzutani was able to maintain an extremely high level of play and not get flustered, even until the very end. Great match!

And some people say the players of past wasnt good as the current ones. But they forget that in the past they had hide serve and smaller balls, that change everything in therms of rallyes and impressions.

[alead1]

and I think Korbel lacks power and he should do smth else, not TT )

[tomo48101992]

i think Korbel was using speed grew .

[spifo]

petr korbel is the coolest player I've ever seen

[plot000000]

the table sounds plastic and hollow. haha great match though

[tyoungos]

Like the famous WWII American General Douglas MacArthur once said, “Old soilders never die; they just fade away.” What he said about old soldiers is also true about old professional table tennis players like Petr Korbel (fourth in the men’s singles of 1996 Olympics), Jean-Michel Saive, Persson, etc. #LOL

INCREDIBLE MATCH!!!! I thought the commentator (who's hiliarous, btw) was saying "1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1" ... which would've been monotonous even in binary. @_@

[manochka3]

[MarcusKuan]

[CrawSpecificated]

[ultrasbad]

[petedogg629]

love miz's 5:34 win

[stoja2305]

4:50 nice point

[lightmobile]

I see Korbel changed his shirt before the last set...that must mean he sweats a lot like me. Now I like him even better.

[geoggg]

I feel that there is not much speed on this open comparate to other last competitions... Maybe they found a way to detect boosters and stuff like this ??

[01TheViewer]

4:51 korbel did his best!! his backhand is powerful

[MathiasEliseu]

Great game, well done Petr Korbel!

[Mauke1903]

korbel is 40 years old and still such a great player!!! he deserved to win!!!

[Berycg]

@Mauke1903 I on 100% agree, but there is no "deserve" in sport.

[Mauke1903]

@Berycg as we can see ;)

[petedogg629]

@Mauke1903 Please don't ruin it for the people who did not see it yet. Thanks

[AznBoi07]

@petedogg629

Actually, I'm pretty sure that Mauke's comment concentrically is a very ambiguous one. lol

[AznBoi07]

@petedogg629 * coincidentally

[Chowqiao]

7:11 Awesome chops from Korbel, there are so low over the net.

[ttsnap]

4:50 is amazing

[hopeless2809]

their loops looks so powerless ... 

[Chowqiao]

@hopeless2809 Indeed. Mizutani plays quite defensive and Korbel is old now, he tends to rely more on tactics than raw power.

[ikaros21]

@hopeless2809 if you compare it to the chinese yes but the camera angle plays a trick here. those loops are way more popowerfull and faster than us lol

[MAT0art]

skoda, moc som Petrovi fandil

[mothgods]

BRILLIANT! simple as that



[DuchDoby]

Petr Korbel still got it. He can beat top players. Love his backhand.

[kitmo123456789]

[donzytyta1987]

Pure luck mizutani

[leankints]

wum wum wum wum wum wum wum wum. funny commentator! LOL

[SideOnStudios]

Love Jun's reaction to Korbel's chopping :)
