Burma snatches sepak takraw gold

Burma’s sepak takraw men’s doubles team won the gold medal after defeating Indonesia in the final on Friday in front of a partisan crowd in the 5,000-seat Wunna Theikdi Indoor Stadium.

Despite losing the first set 10-21, Aung Pyah Tun and Wai Phyo fought back in the second, winning 21-15.

Roared on by the home supporters, the Burmese pair prevailed in the final set to claim the SEA Games title 2-1.
