Despite a valiant effort, Ravi Dahiya lost to Zavur Uguev to win a silver medal in the men's wrestling freestyle 57kg final at the ongoing Tokyo Olympics on Thursday. The ROC wrestler registered a 7-4 win against Dahiya. Meanwhile, Deepak Punia fell to a narrow 2-4 defeat against Myles Nazem Amine in the men's freestyle 86kg bronze medal match. The Indian wrestler saw his medal hopes falter due to a late comeback from his San Marino opponent, who sealed a win in the last minute.Â
The Indian men's hockey team sealed a 5-4 win against Germany in their bronze medal match. Simranjeet Singh scored two goals for India at the Oi Hockey Stadium, along with Hardik Singh, Harmanpreet Singh and Rupinder Pal Singh also adding their names on the scoresheet. The win also helped the Indian men's hockey team end their 41-year medal wait at the Olympics.
Golfer Aditi Ashok finished Round 2 of women's individual event on a strong note. The Indian wrapped up the round with 5 under par (-5) 66 points. She is tried at 2nd rank 9 under par (-9) with total of 133 points.
Meanwhile, Vinesh Phogat crashed to a shocking defeat against Vanesa Kaladzinskaya of Belarus at the 53kg freestyle wrestling 1/4 final. The Indian wrestler, who was trailing 3-9, lost the bout via fall. Phogat had earlier defeated Sofia Mattsson in the 1/8 finals. She was also out of contention for the repechage round as Kaladzinskaya lost her semi-final bout to Pang Qianyu.Â
Wrestler Anshu Malik lost her repechage round 2 at the women's freestyle 57kg category. She lost 1-5 to Valeria Koblova.
