Lutalo Muhammad, the Walthamstow warrior, has just won Britain’s second taekwondo medal of the Games, after Jade Jones retained her Olympic title on Thursday night. A thrilling final in the Caricoa 3 arena saw 25-year-old Muhammad lose to the African champion, Cheick Sallah Junior Cisse of the Ivory Coast, in the final agonising second. He was ahead until Cisse took the last kick of the match, picking up four points to win 6-8. Had that kick not made contact with Muhammad’s head, he’d have won 6-4. He looks absolutely gutted – as you might expect.

It was the Londoner’s second Olympic medal, following the bronze he picked up in London. His performance is vindication for GB Taekwondo, who picked him over his rival, Aaron Cook, four years ago. Cook took the huff and ended up accepting Moldovan citizenship in return for a place on their Olympic squad, only to crash out in the first round on Friday.

In the women’s -67kg final the Korean Hyeri Oh won a very close battle with Haby Niare of France, 13-12.
