Lip read Harimoto saying "congrats" to Liang Jingkun in Chinese as they shook hands. Felt his pain, but great sportsmanship after an absolutely outrageous fight!
An extraordinary match, breathlessly tense from beginning to end. Always seemed like Harimoto had to do something superhuman to win a game, and that could only last so long. Match of the year so far.
Glad to see Harimoto throwing more forehands in. Game 5 he pooped the bed on those two last shots. But I do believe he has all the potential to be the best in the world at some point. It’s only when he plays fearlessly.
@@Titteeeee Don´t forget how super hard it is to beat the chinese top-players! China has like 20 super strong players, and only the best of the best compete in the tournaments. So they are always in best shape, otherwise another chinese player would be there. All other nations have their national team competing in the big tournaments, so they also have a "bad year" from time to time.
@@Titteeeee Dude, people generally peak in TT when they reach 22-23 and it takes around a decade of being pro before they peak. It was the same thing with Ma Long, FZD, and Zhang Jike, they all started early at a young age and reached high levels but took them a long time (from 7 to 10 years) before they finally peaked. Harimoto is still a kid who just turned 20.
Hats off to both players! Every single game was sooo close and fiercely fought over it could easily have gone the other way! Best match of the tournament by a country mile!🔥🔥🔥
Они примерно равного класса, но китаец лучше и точнее в решающие моменты. Да и китайская школа куда серьёзнее японской, корейской и европейской вместе взятых.
@@st1ckman07 Харимото вообще и есть китаец. Его китайское имя Zhang Zhihe (привет Zhang Jike)😊 Неудивительно, что он спокойно общается с китайцами на общих тренировках
This game Was INSANE! It constantly kept me on edge. Every Set was sooo close. The speed and Power were unmatched. Haven't seen this in a very long time! Harimoto will win next time❤
it's funny to see Liang Jingkun often lost against some minor opponents but won those who are deemed to be tougher ones for top players such like harimoto, lin yun ju, wang chuqin, etc., and sometimes he would easily lost some decisive points and crashed out of a game.
In my mind, this match is the highlight of the Durban World Table Tennis Championships, even beyond the final. WangChuqin was simply vulnerable to FanZhendong, especially in the last two rounds, but Liang Jingkun and Harimoto were like two warriors in the arena, only the attack did not defend, and the fight was over until one man fell (and they did fall on the ground after the match🤣)
These guys should make millions, not soccer players or base ball players. Fastest sport in the world, mentally, technically, and fysically the hardest sport. What a match this was!!!
First of all some of the players do. Second, neither table tennis nor football players are paid because their jobs are important, but because people are watching them. More people pay a lot of money to watch football (and probably baseball) so they make more money.
The ceiling camera was surprisingly a very good camera angle 😮 I can see clearly where the ball is hitting on the table. With the camera that was from the side of the table it was hard to see that
@@onimaxiis1 хотелось бы там Ма Лонга увидеть, судя по всему это его последний ЧМ, но вряд ли он пройдёт этого киборга... А Фан умеет с Лян Цзинкунем играть, что показали неоднократно прошлые турниры, так что вероятность такого исхода -95%
Wauuw what a game and so emotional too, every point counts got damn table tennis is intense.. It’s not like in the old days where ppl played defensive, now both players attack and it’s so great to see/watch,…. Wauuw just wauuw
Every competitive player knows this very very rare moments, when your body looses your mind, and you begann really to play instead of construction . this is what we have here in a perfect example.
Gutted he lost as he is the only one capable of beating the Chinese players. Incredible match. No idea why harimoto doesn't work on his backhand to forehand transition, clearly a weakness in his game and has been for many years.
Этот Харимото только орёт после каждого удачного розыгрыша с целью психологического давления на соперника, но не понимает что на класс игры соперника это никак не влияет.
These guys are super human. I don't even know what i am watching. They hit shot of the year everytime, that's their standard. 👀👏
Completely agree
These are speed beasts but they are defeated by technique beasts like ma long and Wang chuqin
@@inifin8 If anyone should be called a speed beast, that one is Wang Chuqin LOL
@@inifin8no, Wang was defeated by Liang in 2023
I've never seen them both like this. Best game!
Absolutely unbelievable standard from both and a lovely show of respect at the end. TT doesn`t get much better than this!!
These guys come from another world. For me this is the best match of the competition so far. Respect to both of them
Great handshake, superb sportsmanship from Harimoto as always!
Lol
@stuxnet750 no, I think he isn't actually, I was though a little bit
Crazy game , the 2 players were on fire
Great match and coverage. No commentary is so good!
i agree
Yeah… this match was self explanatory AND finally with a “decent” angle
Agree. There is always no commentary, because when he plays, my speakers are turned off...
Commentator was fired because he could not keep up
Finally a good diagonal camera angle. Keep this up!

Said gong xi which means congrats
But sreams are horrible, that constant yelling is so irritating
@@djhumantorch it's mad drama. Loved it from both players.
@@djhumantorch you will get use to it when watch harimotos' games😉
But still horrible…and no one forehand.. juste impossible to beat chinese players like this
An extraordinary match, breathlessly tense from beginning to end. Always seemed like Harimoto had to do something superhuman to win a game, and that could only last so long. Match of the year so far.
Harimoto was too passive sometimes, anyway great blocking skills
Don’t worry Harimoto this game will make you better this is type of playing I want to see more from you
Woah , this match was so great , i was lucky enough to have watched it live on yt..
Wish I would've seen this one live in the arena
Glad to see Harimoto throwing more forehands in. Game 5 he pooped the bed on those two last shots. But I do believe he has all the potential to be the best in the world at some point. It’s only when he plays fearlessly.
Nope. He is here since many years and still not capable to beat chineses players in big tournaments
@@Titteeeee bro he is 19 and beats fzd and wcq in 2022 wtttc

The camera has very good sense of depth. It's like a live watching experience. This is the Best of the best recording every made.
Спортсмены красавцы!
Показали себя во всей красе!
Выложились по полной программе!

@@bibukov1 согласен
Харимото можно отнести тоже к китайской школе. Отец его вроде в сборной Китая работал, и Томокадзу начинал тренироваться в Китае

WHAT A MATCH!!! How many times are we able to see a match in which each and every freaking game is so close that could've gone either way? Wow.
What an incredible great game..😲
Harimoto is an absolute beast. This was a fight between tigers, and the one called LJK had the last laugh!
And the last scream
Tiger vs Lion! Good fight!
This match was so satisfying, the ball sound, the camera angle and obviously the players. Pure pleasure to watch.
Ce match de zinzins de l'espace !!
Merci à Harimoto de jouer avec autant de passion
최근에 본 경기중에 가장 흥미진진하고 수준 높은 경기!! best of the best
Two fantastic players, a great game.
Congratulations.
This game Was INSANE! It constantly kept me on edge. Every Set was sooo close. The speed and Power were unmatched. Haven't seen this in a very long time!
Harimoto will win next time❤
5:34
Crazy
5:35 this rally was insane!
THANK YOU FOR CHANGING THE ANGLE WTT THANK YOU. NOW IM GOING TO WATCH EVERY VIDEO
An outstanding game and what a nice sporting gesture by both of them at the end. This is table tennis 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
What a match Solid Jingkun
Absolutely insane and great camera angel!!
Harimoto wanted that game more than I've ever seen him . I was actually fist pumping for him.
For a long time, I haven't watched any game so competitive like this. It s inhuman👏👏👏👏
WoW! One of the greatest game of all time!
5:35 That is the best point I remember watching.
5:34 amazing
That was a close game! Both players played well.
always so excited to watch the pro playing. Absolutely amazing match. 🏓🏓🏓
The backhand battle
crazy! LJK's backend improved sooo much
The sheer intensity in every point was insane, shame it did not go to the seventh
Very intense gameplay. The outcome of every set was unpredictable. It could have gone easily the other way too. Great match.
One of the best Match ever!
What a match! The best by the moment!
it's funny to see Liang Jingkun often lost against some minor opponents but won those who are deemed to be tougher ones for top players such like harimoto, lin yun ju, wang chuqin, etc., and sometimes he would easily lost some decisive points and crashed out of a game.
Tough one for Harimoto, almost making it to the semi-final. But LJK is really good in WTTC, maybe he can advance further than semi-finals this time!
這個攝影位置是最好的，速度感滿滿
两个人状态都不错，表现的非常好，当然心理压力都很大，张本是非常想赢的压力，靖崑是不允许输的压力。
恭喜靖崑🇨🇳🎉🎉🎉，张本选手加油，再接再厉！💪💪💪
你说反了😂
WTF, both of them are on fire. Absolutely wonderful match! BTW, the angle of camera is better than before.
In my mind, this match is the highlight of the Durban World Table Tennis Championships, even beyond the final. WangChuqin was simply vulnerable to FanZhendong, especially in the last two rounds, but Liang Jingkun and Harimoto were like two warriors in the arena, only the attack did not defend, and the fight was over until one man fell (and they did fall on the ground after the match🤣)
As for the round where Fan Zhendong was reversed, I'm guessing he was thinking about what move he should celebrate with later on🤣
Who needs forehand when your backhand is like that.
Супер заруба))
This is the game of the tournament so far.
Great game. I'm now convinced that Harimoto's vocal cords are made of steel. How do you still have a voice man😂
Фантастика🔥👏👏👏
The speed in LJK shots is overwhelming
These guys should make millions, not soccer players or base ball players. Fastest sport in the world, mentally, technically, and fysically the hardest sport. What a match this was!!!
Uhm not exactly physically but the rest I agree
There needs to be millions of people watching the sport for them to make millions.
Some of the players are millionaires like ma long and Timo boll

oh my gottttt ..this is insane ..this so fast ..soooo tight...sad that harimoto didnt win..he deserved it
dddddddd 🤣
Well LJ clearly deserved it more ...
@@Akumetsubgyes, LJK had defeated Harimoto for 7 times and only lost one time in 2018.
Absolute monstrous backhand at 1:50 🤯
Bitchslap from hell backhand
So brutal 😮
Great game this is why we love the sport
12:49 I love their sportsmanship
What a match between two backhand beast !
非常好看的對決~這簡直是冠亞軍賽了~~~
Since when is LJK such an absolute backhand monster?!
so emotional game!!! great match
Лианчик, вперед, за золотишком!!
Holy shit that was the most intense match of the tournament. Speed and power. Even the screaming combined with the crowd made it more intense.
Same here. Gotta love the additional excitement this kind of passion brings to the sport!
Liang Jingkun 好样的！ 👍👍👍
тупо 13 минут махача без остановки, лучший матч пока что, из тех что видел!
На этом чемпе - так точно!
Самый напряженный
Ван - Фан финал будет) там тоже помашут от души

コメント欄にハリーへの賛辞が多くて本当に誇らしい気持ちになる。
ジンクン、ハリー共に素晴らしい試合をありがとう。
Harimoto favorite❤
Harimoto was unlucky a lot of times. A lot of his shots kept hitting the top of the net and going off the table.
Hard luck harimoto, too many net shots, unlucky but still incredible performance from you ♥️. If only you won the 1st game which was yours😭
7:22 signature celebration. I was waiting for it lol
haha, if someone made a Harimoto bobble doll with sound I would buy it.
2008: no one played backhand.
2023: no one plays forehand
game of the tournament so far!
12:49 - wow, I never see asian players handshake like this warm. nice!
Fantastic match, bravo.
Это было сильно оба на данный момент равны,💪
Superb maybe the best match I ve ever seen
Wow great game, great angle thanks ITTF
Wauuw what a game and so emotional too, every point counts got damn table tennis is intense.. It’s not like in the old days where ppl played defensive, now both players attack and it’s so great to see/watch,…. Wauuw just wauuw
thank god i dont have to watch a screaming matchups anymore, Liang is a beast lfg
5:35 Legendary!

the best match 🏓
Wooow what a match!
wow, what a game
The screaming like a lunatic after every point is so not necessary
12:51 so beautiful 🫰
One of the best matches I ever seen.
Wow, amazing fight by both 👏
Этот Харимото только орёт после каждого удачного розыгрыша с целью психологического давления на соперника, но не понимает что на класс игры соперника это никак не влияет.
Best play of the year.
Пока что, лучшая игра на чемпионате
О, да!
harimoto was totally annoying, but in the end I changed my opinion, because of the handshake
To be fair Liang Jinkun screamed almost as much himself.
Exactly same here.
@@ToDDHeaDD Watch again
仍然好撚勁！！！LJKing🎉🎉
The difference between Battle and Match.
Lmao you right tho😂
