Cindy Ngamba makes history by guaranteeing the Refugee Olympic Team a first Games medal as she reaches the women's boxing 75kg semi-finals.
Boxer Cindy Ngamba said she was "just human like any other refugee" after making history by guaranteeing the Refugee Olympic Team a first Games medal.
Ngamba moved to the UK aged 10, but cannot compete for Team GB because she does not have a British passport. Ngamba, who was the team's flagbearer at the opening ceremony in Paris, next faces Atheyna Bylon of Panama on Thursday.
