Two years of age, to fancy themselves to Simcoe
He's not going to make it easy, Alexi, he never does
From Falck on that opener
Alexi got to the final, but lost to Hugo Calderano
Alexi LeBron
Wow, that's a firecracker
To his arm
For the big LeBron
That's nice from Falck
2-5
The clutch
Wow
He looked too tight to play it
Wow
He's done well here, Alexi
He gives the snowball out of control, just resetting mentally
Go in again
Sponge it up
With his backhand
To Alexi LeBron
He doesn't take a game
Long serve from Alexi LeBron
And he survives it
Terms up
Left
And you can fool your opponent
My goodness me, how is he crazy, crazy backhand from Alexi LeBron there
And he goes against
Barely come back, those forehands of his
Falck, two ahead
With the way the fray are playing right now
Bring the wrist back to create spin
Bit easier, bit more
Five game points
To the ferocious Falck
Surely he'll take one of these four
There
There's so many here, it's not surprising actually
He takes it this time
Game number three
Matias Falck has leveled up, ladies and gentlemen
So he's got to commit
Sacrifice a bit of table to get that forehand in
By table
The style of Falck
Is a limited style
Sometimes it's just seeing here
They love their table tennis
They love it dearly
Falck doesn't love that
Who does?
Apart from Alexi LeBron
Matias says Alexi LeBron
Shows you don't need a big stroke to make a powerful stroke
You just need in the back
And legs
Two!
Falck changing to do the backhand serve from the forehand side
Look at this side
Nine-four up
Two!
Intelligent attacking
Some fortune to finish but it was a look that made the difference there
A dominant display
Falck fighting to prevent a 2-0 deficit here overall
Some feeling
Some defence
So they've played him here in the semi
Falck
Getting off to a perfect start
Because he knows Alexi is not going to push a long ball
Unless he's very surprised
Wow! Matias Falck
Needs to win this game
If he is to survive
Not how he moved into it
Change
Of spin
Throw in the tight
Absolutely loving the atmosphere
It makes a championships
Here comes the lollipop
Another service
Predictable
Living and breathing every single shot along with Falck
The Swedish team
He's three ahead in this decider
Oh my god
Pinning him down that backhand
To keep his wits about him
I lose my voice I think before
The final tomorrow
In there from Alexi
From sealing the deal
It's down to them now
Conclusion on this epic second match of the tie
Raised the roof
To Sweden
