壓軸出場的是國家隊乒乓雙雄馬龍及樊振東,二人一出場即贏得全場熱烈掌聲。馬龍透露這次巴黎奧運只參加團體賽,唯一目標就是與隊友們一起合力拿下這項項目的金牌,馬龍說:「我覺得奧運會是每個人的夢想,當然拿到金牌更是每個人的願望。不管之前拿過多少金牌,奧運會(對我來說)每次都是新的舞台,所以我還是很開心與隊友再次拿到金牌。」至於樊振東,則指很開心在奧運會上認識了很多朋友。
















二人獲安排示範迷你乒乓球花式表演賽之餘,還與為數六人的青年團進行友誼賽。不過由於雙方實力懸殊,大會安排馬龍及樊振東以「笑聲拍板」、「鍋蓋」及「鍋鏟」代替正常乒乓球拍。獲分配「鍋蓋」的東東落場前雖大嘆「肯定有難度」,但他打了兩、三回合後,即與「鍋蓋」變成好朋友,成功拿下不少分數,相當快上手!
