Face your fate! Timo Boll wins table tennis game with crazy comeback, saving 6 match point

At the Liebherr 2017 World Championships in Düsseldorf earlier in the year, in the fourth round of the Men’s Singles event when facing colleague, Xu Xin, he held a commanding seventh game lead and suffered defeat.

Now, some five months later when opposing Germany’s Timo Boll, on Saturday 21st October, at the quarter-final stage of the Liebherr Men’s World Cup in Liège, Belgium, China’s Lin Gaoyuan was once again in control in the deciding game; incredibly once again he experienced the same fate.

“It was a crazy match and I had to fight because this is my living room. I just felt I had to fight in this wonderful arena with the huge support from the fans and I was lucky as well. I think I have to use the next 20 minutes to enjoy this victory.” Timo Boll.

A Paris labor court ruled on Tuesday that Paris Saint-Germain must pay more than 60 million euros to Kylian Mbappé in a dispute over unpaid wages and bonuses linked to the end of his contract before his 2024 move to Real Madrid.

Lawyers argued last month before the Conseil de prud’hommes de Paris. The court sided with the player amid accusations of betrayal and harassment surrounding the breakdown of their relationship.

PSG was seeking 440 million euros from Mbappé, citing damages and a “loss of opportunity” after he left on a free transfer.
