Tokyo Olympics: While the day started on a rather glum note with wrestler Anshu Malik dropping out of the repechage round of the 57kg match after losing 1-5 to Russia’s Valeria Koblova, the Rio Olympics silver medallist.

Meantime, Vinesh Phogat underwent a massive upset defeat at the Olympic Games after being pinned by Belarus’ Vanesa Kaladzinskaya in the 53kg quarterfinals to not only go out of the gold medal race but also face the risk of getting eliminated, in Tokyo.

However, the greatest news of the day came from the men’s hockey as they beat Germany 5-4 in the bronze medal match to win the first Olympic hockey medal in 41 years.
