This was state of the art superbrilliant table tennis

... This was the greatest success in Baum's career, LOL!))))))

what a critical net shot to go up 9-6 at the end there

this is why you NEVER give up.

que buen partido y que tecnica Patrick Baum

I am officially a Baum fan now

What a match!!!

Baum is a very good player. He should be in the top 20 at least.!

baum reminds me to korean Lee Jung Woo.his service,movement,forehand.

Samsonov´s forehand took a little vacation during this match.... That, and the fact that most of Baum´s forehand topspin were always with less spin than Samsonov thought...

@Labcher i thought English was close to German and maybe if i try i could figure out what said, but i have no clue

wow, samsonov had really FOUL luck. But credit to Baum, he never once gave up, even at 10-5. Besides, Baum showed great technical ability and fitness to win.

Baum was on fire and Samsonov was a little below average for him. I don't think Samsonov exactly gave his leads away, Baum had to hit some pretty great shots to keep his comebacks alive in the 2nd and 4th games.

Wow, with Dima out Buam stepped up nicely.

Baum is very well!!!

Someone was on fire :D

If you think about it, it's actually pretty cool: 2 German players beat Samsonov in the Euro Champs, and none of them is Timo.

@4101991 er meint wohl welchen belag..also NI oder NA .das der belag schwarz ist ist ihm wohl klar.

nice to see some fresh blood beating the old timers :D:D

patrick baum hats einfach drauf :DD

@TTabacho I seriously doubt that it's due to Rosskopf. He's been coaching them since august 1st while Baum is improving constantly. Baum beeing in SF is not as surprising as kuzmin in semis last year. After all, had Vladi not blown his 10-7 and 10-5 lead in the second and fourth set, he could win easily 4-0. IMHO Baum could reach even the final because he already beat Schlager several times and this win will for sure boost his confidence a lot.

Baum got a few lucky balls in this game

was spielt der Baum auf der Rückhand ?

great match. If Samsonov was a little bit younger, he could beat Baum right away in game 4

what's wrong with baum?

Samsonov gave this one away, if he finishes his games off he wins 4-0

I am really glad for Baum and Suss but i feel both of them lack something Timo has which is style, is my own personal opinion though i wish i could play like them.

@djGlycol ich lach mich schlapp

:D ab 4:36.. lässig reingedrückt

@Seanlabor das dachte iwie auch grade xD diese labberigen augen als würd er schon n halbes jahrtausend leben und seit 100 jahren nich mehr gelacht haben

@BollForte94 einen Gummireifen

You can tell Samsonov doesn't like Baum either.

auch wenn er irgendwie unsympatisch ist und gefuehlte 136791357 netz- und kantenbaelle hatte goenn ichs dem jung irgendwie :)

meine Handschuhe sind für mich, um es in einem Fleischwolf Tropfen nass

I would love to like Baum, but I don't..

Extrem geile Technik von Baum, aber ziemlich unsympathischer Mensch, erinnert mich an Gollum.

Baum and Crisan- by far my two least favorite players.

European table tennis. So boring.and mechanical
