No repeat
Malaysia failed to repeat their exploits of the 2002 Busan Asian Games when their men's team crashed to a 17-48 defeat to Japan in their last group match.

Japan picked up two more lonas to wrap up the match and put themselves in contention for a medal. They will face India in the semi-finals.
