Hosts France have claimed their first gold at the Paris Olympics after a 28-7 rugby sevens win against Fiji. France initially fell behind and had the game tied at 7-7 at the break before Antonie Dupont came on and scored twice to help the Olympics hosts to complete the turnaround. South Africa won bronze earlier after defeating Australia 26-19. This is the third medal at the home Games for France after Luka Mkheidze took silver in the men’s judo 60-kilogram final and Shirine Boukli claimed their first medal, a bronze in the women’s judo 48-kg.
