The Chinese crowd were cheering for Saive!

@ttclaws55 mind you, he did what most coaches won't do, getting up there to help saive up when he tripped over. that gesture indicates lots more respect than not clapping for a net/ edge point

[broro100]

@skatejimmy1 no matter what happened, saive didn't win. what determines the "stupidity" of segun for you, race? you shouldn't ever judge sportsmen like such by any means. saive clearly isn't better in this match, if he was, then he would've won.

[broro100]

@masanf to judge their manners to such a disgusting extent with such comparisons makes you look stupid. world class athletes can hit nets and edges very easily if trained to, but if they do so, where's the sportsmanship? if you know racket sports well enough you'd realize that tennis and badminton have these kinds of manners as well. please have a start on learning sportsmanship before judging sportsmen' manners to such extent.

4:16 epic defence by Saive and powerful smash by Toriola. Great game!

@iniafaha he needs more power.（Morale?）

[iniafaha]

Why do all table tennis players turn into monsters when they score a point....."yeaahhh, YES! YESS!!"

[masanf]

Apologizing for nets and edges is one of the most ridiculous thing about table tennis. It is like a baseball player apologizing for hitting the foul pole on a homerun or apologizing for a ground-rule double or a field goal kicker apologizing for bouncing one of the goal post before it goes through the uprights. The net and the edge are as much a part of the playing surface as the rest of the table and acting as if hitting them is somehow wrong and merits an apology is fucking stupid.

that was freakin awsome. I love it !!!! TABLE TENNIS RULES OVER ALL

[zedzulzorander]

Hell yeah! Black guy owned! I can't believe the other guy hit the barrier twice lmao.

The best match I've ever seen...
