Mani Djazmi is joined by a Russian athlete who came to the Paralympics, despite the ban.

Mani Djazmi is live in Rio and is joined by Russian hand cyclist Svetlana Moshkovich who has come to the Paralympics, even though her country is banned from the competition. We ask what it is like to be in Rio and not be able to compete. Plus, we get reaction from the men's 200m T44 gold medallist Liam Malone.
