After the match I was shocked and frustrated. I looked at the stream for whole 30min after the match, the stadium was empty.
Ma Long really hesitated on his backhand. Why can't he play his backhand like at the Swedish Open final against Wang Hao? I think the memory of 2011 and 2009 comes back...
What I am curious about:
What did Wang Hao say to Ma Long after the match was over? He does not really look friendly. It was like the 2011 semifinal in Rotterdam. Wang Hao screamed 4 times and showed his fist in Ma Long's direction. There was less than 3m distance.
(At the end)
And at the...
Ma Long is still your favourite? If he meets Wang Hao in the semis old memorys comes back, 2009 and 2011. It's not easy to forget that. Besides there is a Yan An who can beat everyone.
Ma Long will have a pretty hard way to the (semi-)final.
Xu Xin and Zhang have an easier way. Ma Lin is...
That's 100 % true.
I always start to make a video about a different player, but in the middle my motivation fades away. I have a Xu Xin, Ma Lin and Dima tribute on my pc, but no video is finished. Just between 1 and 2 minutes.
At least they are not able to do it every time:):D
Dan, what is your favourite final match up? Mine is Ma Long - Zhang Jike.
I will watch the final with a friend and he is Zhang - Fan. This will be a battle ...
