JAKARTA, Aug. 22 -- The Chinese shuttlers survived heated atmosphere to beat hosts Indonesia 3-1 in the men's team final at the 18th Asian Games here on Wednesday evening.

Chinese men's team, the 2018 Thomas Cup winner, stood atop Asia for the sixth time, and undoubtedly made amends for their loss to then hosts South Korea four years ago.

After losing the first game 21-14 to Anthony Sinisuka Ginting, China's Shi Yuqi had to save two match points in the second game to force a decider at 23-21.

The two players went neck-and-neck in the first half of the decider. Despite cutting the deficit to one point at 15-16, Ginting appeared to suffer hamstring and called for a medical timeout.

Ginting was further hampered afterwards as he could not completely make his moves, but he managed to possess a set point at 20-19 due to Shi's error.

However, as the injury got worse, Ginting decided to give up when trailing at 20-21, and had to be stretchered off.

"I became more concentrated when fighting back in the second game, trying not to concede too many errors. I fully trusted myself and fought until the end," Shi pointed out.

In a highly-anticipated doubles clash, world champions Li Junhui and Liu Yuchen failed to stop world No. 1 Marcus Fernaldi Gideon/Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo from marching on 21-17, 21-18.

Chen Long put China in front again as the Olympic champion prevailed on 20-year-old Jonatan Christie in full sets.
