Left behind in the first game, Apri/Fadia took the lead in the second game and forced an extension of the match with a rubber game. However, the long struggle ran aground because they failed to win after the final score showed the results 12-21, 21-19, and 20-22.
The third match was Putri Kusumawardani's turn to appear, this moment was also not easy for Putri because she had to win in order to maintain the opportunity.
Putri KW faces He Bingjiao in the third party. However, her efforts to open the first point for Indonesia have also disappeared. Putri actually failed in two straight games ending 21-15 and 21-19.
Putri KW's failure in the third party is clearly not what she expected. The daughter who tried to appear focused said that this opponent was quite difficult.
He also regretted the draw results which immediately brought together Indonesia and China. Even so, Putri remains optimistic and immediately shifts her focus to individual numbers.
"I don't really think about the condition of the team that is left behind, I just focus on preparing myself. If I can play well and win, the team will also benefit," said Putri KW in a statement after the match in an official statement.
"But earlier the opponent really limited my game from the top ball. It's enough to regret the draw why you have to meet China directly, but that's the draw so we in the women's team team are determined to face and fight together. After this, I want to immediately prepare for the individual number, "explained Putri.
With this result, China will meet Japan who beat Taiwan.
