Good job Harimoto
Fucking harimoto
Me molesta oirlo gritaaaar 🙁 arrecha este hpta
3:36 There was nothing wrong with that serve. It was almost identical to the following serve.
Harimoto is even worse in sportsmanship now than ever before. All those screaming and yelling before each and his opponent's serves. That's ridiculous! Why on earth didn't the ITTF have rules against that? That's a definite yellow and red cards for those behaviours. If not, both the Japanese coach and him needed to be reprimanded. This screaming like a baboon is a disgrace, period.
Harimoto wa bakayaro deshita yo! Totemo situree deshita.
Harimoto makes it hard not to dislike him (even if he is just a child). However I see that he is very polite when the ball brushes the net or the edge. Also other japanese kids shout very much too so maybe it is a coaching thing.
Very strong mentality to not break down in the end
Good fight although all that screaming is annoying. I have seen people choying after winning critical points but not before each serve…maybe helps the kid calm down before each point?
Thats one annoying kid. Winning by distracting your opponent., good job. not.
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
never seen a japanese guy behaving like that, with all this breaking free, very latin ahahahahaha, in a good sense, i mean, i'm latin too! sportsmanship or not, i never seen an oriental guy having this emotivity coming out so easily, and maybe the only lacking is to carry on screaming even during the service s "momentum" of the opponent, anyway, they played great rallies. i enjoyed
Have tried to put my thoughts in order, and I can't do it. All I can say is he's a great talent and he's horrible in equal measure. And I agree it's up to the ITTF to say this is wrong. Especially the noise before his opponent serves. It comes across as a really low-down, dirty tactic. Yes, you can say Cho (the Korean) should just ignore it, but I think there's a cumulative psychological effect. It's like loud punk rock being drummed into your head all the time.
I really like the way Cho Seungmin plays, he has great potential. As far as Harimoto goes, great fighting spirit and impressive play, but it is true that he is over-doing it. Now, he is only 13… most kids his age get crazy when they win the smallet event against kids their age.
Great match to watch!
Unfortunately, the umpire might change the outcome of the game.
Believe me he will beat those chinese at Tokyo
guys he screams to get pumped up and stuff. Imagine being like 14 and already on the world stage. Kinda takes a toll.
一生一緒。ついてく、離さないで
