Glasgow 2014: Toriola Inspires Nigeria To Team Table Tennis Bronze


Team Nigeria’s line-up of Segun Toriola, Ojo Onaolapo and Qadri Haruna came back from Sunday’s semi-final loss to Singapore to clinch the men’s team table tennis bronze at the 2014 Commonwealth Games.


Nigeria completed a 3-1 overall victory over India in the best of five third-place match at Scotstoun Campus on Monday.
Toriola, 39, fresh from last night’s stunning defensive display against Ning Gao of Singapore, dominated Sharath Kamal Achanta three games to love in the opening singles match before Quadri, 25, doubled the advantage with a 3-1 humbling of Harmeet Rajuul Desai.
