Both wrestlers grapple their way off the mat. A review by the judges. A point for Amine. End of the first period. Punia leading 2-1.

Wrestling: 2nd period begins. Both step out of bounds at the same time. Uguev charges. Ravi out of bounds this time. Caution for Ravi and a point for Zavur. Zavur leading 5-2. Zavur defending well.

Another 2 for Zavur. Takes Ravi down. Getting worse for him. Everything going in the way of Zavur. Just 40 seconds left. Can Ravi Kumar turn this one around as well?

Two points for Ravi. He takes Uguev down superbly. 7-4 now.

Superb effort from Ravi but Zavur was too good for him. Loses 7-4. Ravi Kumar finishes well with a silver medal. Becomes the second wrestler from the country to win a silver medal at the Olympics.

Wrestling: It's time for the BIG FINAL! Out comes India's very own Ravi Kumar Dahiya. World Champion Zavur Uguev is out next. Match begins.

Zavur pushes Ravi out of bounds after a brilliant defence. 1 point for him. Another point for Zavur. Ravi is back with 2 points with a slam. 2-2 now. Now, 2 points for Zavur with a takedown. Leading 4-2. End of the first period.

Wrestling: The men's freestyle 57kg Bronze medal match has ended, which means it's now time for the final. USA's Thomas Gilman beat Iran's Reza Atrinagharchi 9-1. Talk about a rivalry!

Wrestling: Ravi Kumar Dhaiya's win yesterday had assured India its second silver medal at the Tokyo Olympics. He's also only the second wrestler from the country to enter the final at the Olympics. Sushil Kumar had played for the gold at the 2012 London Olympics where he won a silver.

Ravi had pulled off a massive come-from-behind victory to eliminate Nurislam Sanayev of Kazakhstan courtesy a 'victory by fall' in the semi-final bout.

Leading 2-1 heading into the second period, Dahiya was dealt a huge blow when Sanayev got behind the Indian, caught hold of his ankles and twirled him around a few times to flip the score 9-2 in his favour.

Desperately looking to turn things around, Dahiya made a brilliant comeback by first managing to push Sanayev out of bounds to reduce the deficit to 9-5. The move looked to have injured the Kazakh wrestler, but he decided to continue.

With just 50 seconds left on the clock, Dahiya scored a two-point takedown and converted it to a pin -- exposing both his opponent's shoulders to the mat -- and won the bout by fall.

Wrestling: Ravi Kumar Dahiya's men's freestyle 57kg final against Zavur Uguev is just two matches away. Deepak Punia's men's freestyle 86kg bronze medal bout will be a match after Dahiya's.

Wrestling: Vanesa Kaladzinskaya of Belarus loses in the semi-finals, which means Vinesh Phogat's chance to enter the Repechage round is over. She is out the Tokyo Olympics. Vanesa lost to Pang of China.
