PALEMBANG: Already out of reckoning, Indian men ended their campaign on a positive note, beating Nepal 2-0 in the last group B regu match of Sepak Takraw competition at the 18th Asian Games here today.
India, comprising Rupesh Sunar, Dipesh Jung Thapa, Govinda Magar, Sanjeet Dhimal and Rabin Bhattarai, beat Nepal 21-5, 21-15 in the Group B match.
India had lost to Korea and Malaysia before beating China 2-1 in earlier preliminary matches.
Last week, Indian men's regu team had won a historic bronze medal in the Asian Games after losing in the semifinals.
Sepaktakraw is a volleyball-style sport in which players use their feet, head, knees and chest to hit the ball across the net.
They are not allowed to use their hands.
