Hi Bay,

The ball hits the net but then it bounces on the net clamp that is on the table.  It doesn't actually hit the surface of the table.  The whole net and the clamp is considered to be part of the net so it was led that the ball hadn't hit the table so it was out and the point awarded to Ma Long.
