Truls Möregårdh's successful day: "I played fantastic"

The table tennis star shot Truls Möregårdh would never have started in Europe's top 16. But he was called up in a flash after Mattias Falck withdrew.

Now the 19-year-old, who won World Cup silver this autumn, is successful.

On Saturday, the sharp Frenchman Emmanuel Lebesson first struck out with 4-1 in sets.

- I won relatively easily.

I did not believe.

I played fantastic, says Möregårdh.

"Felt strong"

In the quarter finals, his experienced compatriot Kristian Karlsson was waiting.

It was a tough fight that Möregårdh finally won 4-3.

- I knew it would be a super tough fight.

But I felt strong and it was nice to win in the end.

In the semi-final, which is played on Sunday, the German star Timo Boll is waiting.

He has won Europe's top 16 seven times.

- He's a super legend.

It's going to be fun to meet him.

Will be a replay from the World Cup semi-final.

It will be an interesting match.

How are you going to beat him?

- The key is to lie on your own and not make simple mistakes.

I must not fall into his pace, then it will be difficult.
