The Rugby 7s became the only hope of a medal for Sri Lanka as her rugby team reached the semi-finals, to be staged on Saturday, the final day of this year’s 18^th Asian Games in Indonesia. A win in Saturday’s semi-final against fancied Japan will earn them a definite medal chance. Otherwise they will need to play the losing team in the other semi for the Bronze Medal, also the same day. Korea for most will have a tough time against Hong Kong in this semi. Sri Lanka met Korea earlier and had a close match and, therefore, is expected to give a good fight for their money in their Saturday’s showing, especially in the third-place play-off, if they'll have to play it. By Thursday, 30 August athletics of the Asiad ended disappointingly, without giving Sri Lanka at least a single medal. Athletics was said to be the main prospective medal-winning sport of the country in this year's Asian Games. RESULTS OF QUARTER-FINALS Quarter-finals: Sri Lanka beat China 17-12.
