Match summary

Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Shohibul Fikri dominated Kim Won-ho and Seo Seung-jae with a decisive 21-19, 21-17 victory, controlling the tempo with aggressive driving that generated four winners in the second game's crucial 8-7 to 8-11 run. Kim and Seo stayed competitive with lead changes in both games and a three-point rally run in game one, but couldn't maintain pressure as Fajar and Shohibul's net play consistently drew errors—seven net-related mistakes from their opponents compared to their own three. The Indonesian pair's ability to shorten rallies in game two with an average of just 7.5 shots per rally proved the decisive difference against their opponents' longer, rally-heavy approach.
