@scoopdotmy: Malaysia ended a 36-year wait for the Asian Games men’s team regu sepak takraw gold medal in emphatic fashion after beating arch-rivals Thailand 2-0 in the final at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games today. The victory at Poloma Mizuho Arena in Nagoya was particularly significant as Malaysia’s last gold in the event also came against Thailand at the 1990 Asian Games in Beijing. Malaysia’s decision to field its strongest combination in the opening regu paid dividends, with Mohammad Syahir Mohd Rosdi, Farhan Adam and Mohamad Azlan Alias edging Thailand’s Marukin Phanmakon, Phutawan Sopa and Pornthep Tinbangbon 15-9, 5-15, 15-11. #AsianGames2026 #SepakTakraw #Malaysia #Thailand #Nagoya
