Quadri Aruna showed why he is TTC RhönSprudel Fulda-Maberzell’s strong pillar on matchday seven of the Table Tennis Bundesliga (TTBL), when he led the home team to end TTF Liebherr Ochsenhausen’s winning streak in the competition.

Fulda prevailed 3-2 to rise to third place in the table tennis Bundesliga. The support from TTC RhönSprudel Fulda-Maberzell home fans paid off as Aruna recorded one of the biggest wins of his career to throw the supporters into frenzy at the venue.

He defeated the duo of Maciej Kubik and Simon Gauzy, while Alexandre Cassin and Fan Bo Meng partnership aided the club’s 3-2 crucial win at the weekend.

With five wins from seven matches, Fulda are third on the log behind league leaders, Borrusia Dusseldorf and TTF Liebherr Ochsenhausen.

“In the end, we deserved to win,” said Fulda coach Qing Yu Meng after the game.

“It was a great game, and thanks to a large number of spectators.” The atmosphere was finally fantastic again after a long time. Hopefully, things will continue like this on Sunday in the German Cup,” he said.
Ochsenhausen, on the other hand, was sad that a sensational winning streak has come to an end.

“Both teams played great and fought hard,” admitted TTF Liebherr Ochsenhausen coach Fu Yong. “Fulda was very strong.”

In the opening singles, Aruna beat Maciej Kubik 3: 1 (11: 8, 5:11, 11: 7, 11: 9) in the top singles and then defeated Simon Gauzy 3: 1 (11: 9, 11: 5, 3:11, 11: 5).

Fulda’s second success factor was the new dream doubles team of Cassin and Meng, who were playing together for the fourth time, and for the third time, they won their match.
