For example like that:
mysql> CREATE TABLE p1(id INT PRIMARY KEY)TYPE=INNODB;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.03 sec)
mysql> CREATE TABLE p2(id INT PRIMARY KEY)TYPE=INNODB;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
mysql> CREATE TABLE child(
-> id1 INT,
-> id2 INT,
-> INDEX(id1),
-> INDEX(id2),
-> FOREIGN KEY (id1) REFERENCES p1(id),
-> FOREIGN KEY (id2) REFERENCES p2(id))TYPE=InnoDB;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
