Kishikawa

Has Kishikawa been benched for Team Japan? He hasn't played the last two team matches.

 

[bricephan]

Joo S Hyuk's level is undoubtable.. lot of ppl were actually laughing at him and Korea 'coz he is still in the team, but watch him play right now you will have to say: Chinese super league is not a fool to still let him take part in, Ningbo team is not joker to still employ him upcoming season, and i won't be surprised if he still play CSTTL for several more seasons

I hope that. Also I think they should replace Koki with masato Shiono, koki has a weak head.

I wonder if anyone has noticed new commentator on ITTV, what do you guys think about Adam? To me he is really okay, he doesn't talk to much, he lets you watch the points and than gives his opinions, not so bad for the first tournament

 

[MDanielCRO]

Watching Chuang C.Y. vs Jung Youngsik this really reminds me of women's table tennis

 

[Sali]

Joo SaeHyuk is really good this time. His attack is better then last time I saw. he will be very hard to beat even by chinese.

 

[Sali]

I really want to see Mizutani vs Freitas. I wish there was on ittv

 

[sacofrito]

OMG.

Brazil 2x3 again.
Its so close to win but not this time...f@##

 

[pingpingpongpong]

Hong Kong Men's Team has no more chance for the main draw... This is humiliating.....

Meanwhile, Hong Kong Women's Team is undefeated!

 

[TTFrenzy]

How is that possible ?? after yesterday win over Japan, LOOOL

I think it was a bad call of the coach along with poor performance from Gionis and Kreanga. The team's 4th player Lagogiannis, is very consistent against defenders so coach Vatsaklis decided to put him in the fight against Pattantyus (Lagogiannis won against him in the past) instead of Papageorgiou. It was a tactical decision but it was wrong in my opinion cause Papageorgiou has a stronger personality than Lagogiannis and he is a fighter. Im not blaiming Lagogiannis, he is a great player but I think it was a tough decision for our coach to select among two almost equal players.

All in all we were winning 2-0 before lagogiannis lost and then gionis and kalin lost also

As I know, Papageorgiou is also very good against defenders, I was watching him on ETC when he was playing with chtchetinine and he really showed great performanse, he has wonderful ability to put the ball short. I don't why did the coach replace him

 

[pingpingpongpong]

Will Shiono ever be used? Or he will be the secret weapon in the 2nd stage? He celebrated his birthday today btw haha

North Korea vs South Korea tomorrow! Joo swears to win, but the North has to win to make their record 3-2! It is going to be very intense imo

 

[allencorn]

I hope that. Also I think they should replace Koki with masato Shiono, koki has a weak head.

I suppose it could be purely tactical - do the teams they have played have good experience against choppers?

I love to see Zhang Jike playing his best. And he is going it here in 2014 WTTTC!
This is the hardest part of being a Zhang Jike fan: You have to wait so much time to see him playing his best again. In this case i think Ma Long is a more "fan friendly" player because he goes 100% in every match.

Go Zhang Jike!
