Britain’s Dan Powell said his first Paralympic judo medal was a reward for going through "hell" over the past 16 years.
The 33-year-old, who made his debut at London 2012 and then competed at Tokyo 2020, lost by ippon to Brazil’s Arthur Cavalcante da Silva in the -90kg J1 final in Paris with one minute and 12 seconds of the bout remaining.
But he was still delighted to come away from his third Games with a medal.
"This is 16 years in the making," he said.
