Ravi Kumar Dahiya won the silver medal as he went down fighting against ROC's Zaur Uguev in the men’s freestyle 57kg category at the Tokyo Olympics.

The 23-year-old became only the second Indian to win a silver for India in wrestling at the Olympics, after legendary wrestler Sushil Kumar.

Ravi Kumar Dahiya gave a tough fight to the Russian wrestler. His opponent raced to 7-2 led and from there on it was always going to be difficult for Ravi to overturn the deficit. The Indian grappler got a couple of points but the Russian defended well to record a clinical victory.

Fans on Twitter cheered Ravi even after the loss and shared their thoughts on the social media platform. Here are some of the best tweets.
