Ogunkunle lost his semi-final tie with world number two Young-Gun Kim of South Korea 3-1 but picked up the bronze medal for reaching the semi-final.

In Para-Table Tennis, the two losing semi-finalists will both get a Bronze medal each, without having to play a match to decide the winner.

Despite winning the first set, Ogunkunle lost the match 3-1 (11-9, 5-11, 4-11, 11-13), and he came very close to forcing a fifth set, after taking the 4th set to a tie-break.

Following his feat, Team Nigeria now has a total of five medals which comprise one gold, two silver and two bronze.
