JAKARTA - The Indonesian pencak silat team has passed three representatives to the 2021 SEA Games final. The final match will be held today, Wednesday, May 11.

The three Indonesian representatives who qualified for the final were Puspa Arum Sari (women's singles), Riska Hermawan/Ririn Rinasih (women's doubles), and Anggi Faisal Mubarok/Asep Yuldan Sani/Nunu Nugraha (men's team) from the arts competition.

Puspa Arum qualified for the final after defeating the Lao athlete, Poukky Salerbucha, with a score of 9,965. In the final, she will face the Philippines athlete, Marry Francine Padios Cezar, who eliminated the host, Thi Binh Vuong.

"For the final, I don't think there is a problem because Puspa has matured technically and movement," said the coach of the Indonesian martial arts team, Eko Wahyudi, as quoted by Antara.

He hopes that Puspa can perform optimally in the top party and continue the positive trend. Eko certainly asked the athlete to be able to show his ability 100 percent.

Meanwhile, the Riska/Ririn pair qualified for the final after getting a score of 9,915 against Singapore athletes, Nur Azlyana Ismail Binte/Sharifah Shazza Samsuri Binte. In the final, they will face the mainstay of the host, Nguyen Thi Thu Ha/Ngyuen Thi Huyen.

Meanwhile, Anggi Faisal/Asep Yuldan/Nunu stepped into the final by getting rid of the Philippines representative with a score of 9,960. In the final, the Indonesian team will meet the Thai trio who beat Vietnam in the semifinals.

"So for this final, all preparations must be perfect. There can be no mistakes. So every movement must be perfect so that the core movement cannot be separated," said Eko.
