We need to be giving this refugee weightlifter citizenship ASAP!

Oh think he was a neutral athlete not a refugee, got my made up flags confused, still offer it to him

Sadly if we weren't going to offer it to Cindy Ngamba I don't think we're going to give it to anyone else either (https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics/articles/c7v5336gm87o)

Down to 6th on the Medal Table.

I honestly think if we hadn't qualified someone in that division, then that would have been pushed through

He gets the Ivorian who beat Muhammad in the dying seconds in Rio for gold.

 

It's a tough draw but there's a chance. Either way, he'll get a bronze match later if he doesn't do a Sinden (did his MCL apparently).

 

Edit - I say all that before realising that I'm assuming that Cisse beats the American. Which he hasn't done yet. American will probably steal it at the death...

Round 3 muhammad drops this discovery+ mic and hops the barrier with a steel chair!

4th round of the diving has probably put paid to any chance of a medal. Williams still with a chance in theory but will require 2 great dives and mistakes from others. Kothari would require most of the others to...well...drown.
