Q:

Hibernate generating mysql error when saving object

I getting a mysql error from hibernate when saving a simple model object but can't seem to find what the problem is.  My model class is: 
@Entity (name = "match")
public class Match {

    @Id @GeneratedValue (strategy = GenerationType. AUTO)
    private int matchId;
    private int size;
    private int maxSize;

    @Temporal (TemporalType. DATE)
    private Date createDate;

        //setter & getters
 }

The method that saves instance:
@Test
public void save ()
{

    Match match = new Match ();
    match.setMaxSize(10);
    match.setSize(8);
    match.setCreateDate(new Date ());
    Session session = Hibernate.getSessionFactory().openSession();
    try 
    {
        session.beginTransaction();
        session.save(match);
        session.getTransaction().commit();
    } catch (HibernateException e) 
    {
        session.getTransaction().rollback();
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

This is the error I'm getting from hibernate:
 com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException:You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'match (createDate, maxSize, size) values ('2013-06-28', 10, 8)' at line 1

I think this might be a dialect problem but I'm not sure I am using org.hibernate.dialect. MySQLDialect for my dialect class. 

A:

match is a reserved MySQL keyword.  Change the name of your table.
