    Wang took the upset with a lot of grace, looks like he said "good match, good match". Great sportsmanship
  • @drj9506
    Proud of Sweden, Truls is going to be in the gold medal match on Sunday. Hope he wins it all
  • @needsmorsleep
    his paddle is a hexagon? Is that the new ping pong meta?
  • @tbarron1631
    I loved the shock on his own face when he won.
  • @fly2sky671
    Big congrats, and now he is in the finals!!
  • @YCHTT
    Was he the Chinese player that got his racket damaged by some journalists or someone after his mix double victory?
  • @sabrinaliu1531
    Wang’s paddle was broken by photographer right after he won the gold medal in mixed doubles. Super sad
  • @George-cp2eh
    how about not snapping Wang's racket before match next time
  • Congratuations, Truls!!!! Historic winh!!!! Sweden is the world capital of table tennis!!!!
  • @nycsimon2024
    Congratulations 🎉 🍾 Well-deserved victory.
  • @siyangliu303
    NBC omitted the fact that the ping pong bat of Wang was broken by a cameraman, whether on purpose or by accident nobody knows. Wish Truls can have the chance to march to the finals to play the other chinese player.
  • @shallot4991
    the amount of foot and legwork required to play this competitively is insane
  • @shotaomori6246
    The difference in mental state was obvious. Truls was super focused like he was in the zone. Wang looked uncomfortable and felt like he wasn't quite there. The level of concentration Truls showed really drew my attention that he wanted to win way more than Wang.

    Wang’s body language gave me a feeling he wasn’t as sharp as usual.
