One win was enough for judoka Popole Misenga.

After winning his preliminary fight on Wednesday morning, the Congo refugee faced top-seeded South Korean Donghan Gwak in the second round of the men's 90-kilogram division. With the crowd shouting "Popole" and clapping to cheer him on, he fought aggressively to get a strong grip on Gwak's uniform and tried several times to throw him or wrestle him to the ground.

But after about four minutes, Gwak — the current judo world champion — scored an automatic ippon victory.
