Japan Open 2011: Kenta Matsudaira-Lin Gaoyuan

[Re1Mu2R3]

1:45 = "Fak youh!!!"

[ingullar]

It seems like Kenta has 3:1 psychological barrier...

[wwwytan586]

lin will be one of the best player.I like his play.

[Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh]

Blocking style is a fail.

[tanxu]

wtf!! kenta won so easily the first 2 games and then cant play no more!!

[NZttGuru]

Everybody seems to have forgotten Kenta's 4-0 win against Jun Mizutani last year.

It just shows when he plays good, he plays REALLY good...

[djGlycol]

CHOOO CHOOOO ...OMG suuuuucker!

[DaFaiGai]

@djGlycol ur a sucker omg. get to his level at age 16 then talk.

[cxxdx1]

The block of kenta is so fuckin amazing ._.!

[TheMthuber]

ovtcharov is annoying with his cho

but lin sucks like hell...

[GuiMXC]

1st - Remembering that game between Ma Lin and Kenta, makes me think that Ma Lin played really bad that time. Never seen Kenta make a good game before or after that time.

2nd - WTF, 16 years old? Shit, China will be on the top at list for the next 15 years ahead.

[scylla24]

@GuiMXC yeah, everyone was gushing over kenta after that ma lin game, but since then he has failed to impress. His game is all blocking so yeah when combined with his quickness, it can cause problems for Ma Lin whose style is fast and spin. But against other styles he is weak.

This match was really really impressive for Lin. I thought he was in trouble after being 2-0 down, and he didn't seem to have the power to overcome the blocking of kenta. He is better than Ma Long when he was that age.

[KaxMisha]

@scylla24 It's true that Kenta is really over-rated and will never amount to anything special, but it certainly is not true that Lin is better than Ma Long was at the same age (though Lin is really good). Heck, Ma Long beat Boll rather easily multiple times when he was 16. Search for: "Ma long vs. Timo Boll 2005 German Open"

[scylla24]

@KaxMisha honestly, I actually wouldn't be surprised if Lin if he played with Boll of 2005 skill level, that he would win. Boll has gotten better since then, so I don't think he could beat Boll atm, but I think Lin's skill is definitely good enough, he is a pretty good counterlooper atm, and he has the speed and skills. Ma Long was around 17 in 2005, or very close to it, if you give Lin another year, I definitely wouldn't be surprised if he could have beat Boll of 2005.

[ingullar]

@GuiMXC If you mean the game between Ma Lin and Kenta 2009 WTC in Yokohama, let's be honest to te end - Kenta played really, unbelievably good that time, and Ma Lin played as usual he plays. Never seen Kenta plays on such high level again...

[max095]

Great match, a close one indeed, sadly Matsudaira loses again, he can't find his way when playing chinese players, even if hi is ahead, he just can't finish them... On the other hand, Lin Gaoyuan is a monster with only 16 . No doubt he is gonna be at the top of the ranks someday, beside Fang Bo and Ya An... Thanks for the match TTprovider.

[GecaPhoenix]

Great match,thanks ttProvider!

[Zharioo26]

Screaming after each point... So irritating *_*

Thanks for upload !

[hawkfish88]

So many unforced errors.

[ioriz]

Table tennis is too competitive in china. He is definitely playing his best for his age group. We wont know how he will perform in 4 years time or keep up with the level or even go beyond. A good example would be Fan bo, watching his teenage games and his recent games now. He cant even start a rally and his personality has changed.

[scylla24]

@ioriz really? Fan Bo brought Boll to the last game of the match just this past month in the super league, and he and Yan An are pretty close together. So I wouldn't say he is a total flop or anything.

[Opalance]

God I hate junior players...

[perniciousnc]

as fast n consistent as ma long, as explosive as chen qi

so sad for kenta, before really becoming an impact already tasting the power of the nx generation.

thanks for sharing.

でもすごい！

[BollForte94]

Lin Gaoyuan vs Ma Long would be interesting :D

[BollForte94]

how can they play table tennis ? very dangerous in Japan cause of Fukushima ...

[Tischtennis3]

omg my ears!!!!! CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

[yourikahoka]

here comes the CHOOOOOOOOOOOOO BOY again!!!

[CrawSpecificated]

Yin Hang and this boy will be like Zhang jike and Xu Xin now are within a few years.

Nice match!

[Tobiasdaneels]

@CrawSpecificated I think Yin Hang won't make it. He's not better then he was two years ago. Lin on the other hand improved a lot lately.

[Berycg]

Lin Gaoyuan. My new favourite.

[WianekJumper]

2:10 _O_

[kitmo123456789]

@WianekJumper what the fuck-_-!!

[KillerFace3000]

good comeback by lin, but I wish kenta would've won...

[MrPawany]

@KillerFace3000 Me to man :(
