Off to watch Boxing. Nigerian table tennis ladies out of singles. And Funke's 5th Olympics ends in day 1. Welldone Funke.

Funke Oshonaike OUT!

Segun Toriola beats Canadian 4-1. Segun Toriola is expected to get to at least quater-final. Next Nigerian up is Aruna Quadri.

Edem Offiong OUT! Disappointed. She loses due to her body language and being sluggish.

Edem has to win remaining 2 games or she's out!

Game 5 goes to Egypt. 9ja down 2-3

Tough tough. Nigerian rugged to win 12-10. 2-2.

Edem loses set 3. 2-1 Egypt leads.

11-2 Edem wins. The commentator says 'she came back with absolute vengeance'. Nigerian coach doing well so far!

Edem loses 11-5. HEr body language not very encouraging.

We start. Edem start..

Edem won the All Africa games. She is good and strong and is favoured to go through against this tough Egyptian. Lets go there Nigeria

Edem's game will be broadcast, so Akintum, pls recheck your channel. It will be explosive.

8-2. Funke almost there...

OK now. Funke 6-1 up. Iranian is baffled.

Funke 3-0 up. Game paused for something I'm yet to find out...game restarts..

Final set. Funke races to a 2-0 lead...now 3-0. Quick fire!

Funke loses round 6. now 3-3. Nervous times for Nigeria. she either wins this set or ends her time in competition. I think she can do it.

8-4 Iran leading.

and Funke doesnt get intimidate. now 2-2

Iranian no gree ooo. SHe races to a 2-0 lead in set 6.

9-2 funke was leading, to 10-4, now game point...she takes it. 11-4. Very quick set. Funke is upping the tempo. 3-2 she leads. If she wins this one, she's through.

We're getting to the decisive stages. Funke needs to tighten up. And she races to a 5-2 lead. Coach doing his job well.

Funke is good. Iranian opponent is also good. Funke Loses 4th set 9-11. 2-2 overall. first to 4 wins

They have put Funke on the big screen.She's the only one playing in the arena now. 5-3 up in set 4

Funke wins set 3. 2-1 now. Experience paying off against a stubborn Iranian.

So Canada wins quickly. 4-0 against Qatar. Lets pray they shift to Nigeria's table

I doubt it can be anywhere when the official broadcaster BBC is showing Canada vs Qatar. I guess they will shift tables soon. The Canadian girl is killing the Qatarian. Meanwhile, it is 7-5 with Funke winning and serving

3rd Set underway. Funke to serve.

My bad..Iranian...Funke now playing game point...and...she wins 2nd set. 1-1. Nigeria vs Iran. BBC not showing it. DOnt know why
