Austrian Open: Ma Long-Petr Korbel

[mcortezzzzzzz]

korbel is slow

[table5280]

must be frustrating for korbel

[yilawren]

korbel got angry for ma long cho-ing at his mistakes.

And said the F-word. Got yellow card.

And wanted to complain after losing game.

end of story

[pbsmick]

I use the Petr Korbel blade...

[ttCrawsaive]

Watch this match, and then watch Wang Hao vs Ma Long in Swedisch Open:D

[Barnabas198427]

he played well against Ma long considering his age

[BloxorzWizard]

@Barnabas198427 Petr gave gave a good account of himself, considering the fact that he was playing the man who is probably the best player in the world.

[josuecochi]

6:23 Ma Long says: OMG!

[inhocs]

Petr go home and play with your grandsons ;)

[panteraistheshit86]

they look funny together,korbel, get some faster rubber fgs

[StreetPerforming]

My Mom asks: Is Korea Playing against Malaysia? xDDDD

[mcgcarlos]

Peter Korbel's backhand is truly amazing!!!!

[Pengkui]

What exactly did he say at 6:53?

[strikewzen]

@Pengkui at 6:52 he said fuck this

[vinnen6]

And after the match Korbel downed two bottles of vodka just to help him relax

[sjasi1982m]

he is complaining about the fact that ma long was delaying the game when it got really tight in the final game. korbel was ready to play and ma kept walking around, etc. you can clearly see it in the full video on the ittf site. also, he got the yellow when he yelled out a question to the umpire about why it is that ma is allowed to just not play in a continuous manner...

[Dante007]

I heard a F@CK at 6:55-6:56 maybe that's why he got the yellow card, dunno!

[pwnage696969]

@Dante007 yea your right he said like fkin bullsh1t

[Walker0811]

Korbel is still awesome :)

[jSlipkNoTj]

he receive the card because he said "fuck". i hear it clearly.

[RA07010]

amazing korbel!

[lldreamf]

Why did he get yellow card?

[choutoun]

I love the point at 4:15, Korbel understood that Ma Long played the first 3 sets on his bh, so he anticipated every topspin form Ma Long and his come back on the third set is everything but random! Worderful tactical player!

[WazzaScooba]

That flip at 6:05 was beautiful.

[luispepeful]

what pass in 6:56 ?¿ he insults?¿

[MrWaaghals]

Korbel gave Ma Long a good match!

[Kayres9]

korbel was complaining about ma long waiting too long. at the end he said that the chinese do that very often and that the ref should not allow this.

for they yellow card, i guess he got that one because of swearing.

the refs really show yellow cards if one player gets a little aggressive. so i think that one is correct

[ttCrawsaive]

Korbel is still a threat to the Chinese players! eventhough he didn't play his best game, Ma Long had to pull off all he had to win.

[DuchDoby]

Nice match. Korbel is not easy oponent. He still play great.

[threefifteeny]

what was the "i want to play and he didn't play" Korbel said when he got the yellow card??

[threefifteeny]

Korb was really pissed

[Beeray11]

"chinese, always the chinese" what was that about?

[plot000000]

looks like ma long was playing his strange non-chinese father

[Chowqiao]

When I look at the scoreboard, I was thinking "Who is from Korea? And which country is MAL?"

[BennDuong]

damn, the old man still has a lot of kick in him.

[DKPOWA]

Weird match, Ma Long should drink a Red Bull before his matches :P

[yogistyle92]

wow, that yellow card is huge...or the referee is small. haha

[Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh]

Crying baby

[molitatron]

i hate both korbels bitchiness and the referees passive attitude, wth is she doing there, counting? a 10 year old could do that

[jimiclaptoncarl18]

@CharelIT

LOL... did you even watch the ENTIRE video??? Korbel gets the yellow card @ 6:59.. listen to what Korbel says @ 6:55. That's why he gets a yellow..

As for a red card... where do you see Korbel getting a red card... I don't.  That red thing is called a pen.. :P

[IseeYouNewb]

Wow petr was good, great game! :D

[GeneralSpecific3]

@Opalance 20 years ago Korbel would have still lost

[Opalance]

@GeneralSpecific3 If you can get a game off of the #2 player in the world at 40 and lose 2 games in deuces thanks to edge balls...20 years ago in his prime he would have given a much better showing in his own era of 38mm ball and speed glue.

[qazwsxa1029]

@GeneralSpecific3 20 years ago ma long was like 3. korbel probably would have won :P

[LookB3hindU]

@Opalance Can't really compare the two. They are in 2 very different games. 21 point vs 11, hidden vs clear service, 38 mm vs 40 mm, switch every 5 vs every 2 services. If Korbel was younger and playing in this era Ma would still win. If Ma was born 40 years ago and played Korbel when he was younger it would also be up in the air because China was still dominating back then as well.

[TTMemo]

@LookB3hindU i think the key is Ma Long's Physicality,,,,even in Korbel's prime time, his physicality has never been as good as Ma Long, if Ma Long can play this speed in 40mm and non-speed glue era....imaigine how fast he can play with glued rubber and 38mm ball

[utahjai]

@Opalance 20 years ago MaLong was a baby. Really, Peter played splendidly for his age.

[BollForte94]

Ma Long moved slowly ....

[animatorcharles]

beautiful game! really beautiful!!

Does anyone know what Korbel complains about? and why is the yellow card?

[mikael1992]

@animatorcharles Korbel complains about Ma Longs behaviour.

He got a yellow card for wasting time but when Ma Long has the service, he was always ready but Ma Long wasted more time...That's what I think he complained about.

[charlieucc]

@mikael1992 Ma Long got yellow card for the same reason before..

[roadi1983]

@mikael1992

ma long always wastes time to piss of the opponent, ive seen that many times, and ma long got MANY yellow cards for it, so i guess Korbel was right in this case.... thats ma long´s dirty little style - wasting time when everyone is ready .... dirty trick ma long.

[lP3rfecTi0nl]

@mikael1992 hmm i think he got a yellow card cause he said the f word at 6.54.. thats what i heard, or did i hear wrongly? i dont think it was because he was wasting time..

[dingyibvs]

@mikael1992

Uh no, he got a yellow card for using the F word. If you watched the match live, you'd have seen that Korbel changed his service stance to surprise Ma Long, and ML countered by signaling that he's not ready to receive yet, which obviously ticked Korbel off because by the time ML was ready it was no longer a surprise.

[GuiMXC]

@animatorcharles He is complaining about WHY he received the card. he did not understand that, as we.

[brenktt]

hate korbels's attitude

[tyoungos]

☆☆☆☆☆

2 generations of players are competing on the same ping pong table.

Petr Korbel from the 1990’s communist era of Czechoslovakia

vs.

Ma Long from the new capitalist-communist China.

[TheOleCool]

What was the yellow card for?

[GStabletennis]

Why did Petr Korbel get a yellow card? And what was he angry about?

[jwzhu]

did Korbel utter the F word at 6:55? is that why he got the yellow card from that attractive referee?

[jwzhu]

The KOR and MAL at the bottom of the screen confused me for a sec... I thought this game was between Korea and Malaysia... =)

[fzolesz]

@jwzhu LOL :DD
