Britain’s Lucy Renshall came from behind to get through to the second round of the 63kg judo competition.
Renshall, from St Helens, lost her opening bout in Tokyo and looked to be going the same way when she was caught on the counter-attack by Australia’s Katharina Haecker.
But the Brit, 28, levelled to take it to a golden score extra period, where her aggression paid off.
While Renshall was one penalty away from being eliminated, she was on the front foot throughout, with Haecker seeking every opportunity to break up the contest.
That found the ire of the judge, with the Aussie receiving three passivity penalties in the space of 99 seconds, allowing Renshall to progress to the last 16.
