This victory marks Dusmatov's second Olympic gold, having previously won in Rio 2016. Meanwhile, the Refugee Olympic Team celebrated a historic achievement as Cindy Ngamba became the first member to win a medal, earning a bronze in the women's 75kg category after losing in the semi-finals to Panama's Atheyna Bylon.

Both athletes' achievements underscore the diverse narratives and struggles present at the Olympic Games.
