Outclassed: Malaysia’s Mohd Khaizul Yaacob (right) was beaten 5-0 by Vietnam’s Nguyen Van Tri in the final of the men’s 90kg to 95kg category.

PENCAK SILAT exponents Mohd Khaizul Yaacob and Mohd Fauzi Khalid took the blame as the team ended their Asian Games campaign without a single gold medal.

Hopes were high on Khaizul and Fauzi to end the team’s gold medal chase but they were outclassed by their Vietnamese opponents in the finals at the Padepokan Pencak Silat arena in Taman Mini Indonesia yesterday.
