As pictures go, this one pretty much sums up that first set for Alfie Hewett.

Make that five of 22 points won by Alfie Hewett on his own serve.

Tokito Oda isn't finding it easy to hold himself - but it's nowhere near as difficult for him as it is for the Briton.

The DJ belts out Bon Jovi's "Living On A Prayer" which is a bit fitting for Alfie Hewett at the moment.

He is hanging on in there by his fingernails, but a couple of wayward shots from the Brit hand Oda a couple of set points.

That backhand - Oda rips that right down the line and with it takes the first set.

British judoka Dan Powell is currently fighting for gold - he made his Paralympics debut 12 years ago in London and is now ranked number three in the world.

Listen to his story on Paris Grassroots to Glory.

Alfie Hewett is beginning to come forward a bit more now - and dare we say his mobility is getting a little better?

Either way, Tokito Oda is a little wayward and my goodness, Hewett breaks back and even Oda has to applaud.

We go on.

Great Britain’s Dan Powell is ready to take on Brazil's Arthur Cavalcante da Silva in the men’s -90kg J1 gold medal final.

They are both on the mat waiting to start at a packed Champs-de-Mars Arena.

It’s taken many years of blood, sweat and tears to get here and it is all down to the next few minutes...

Alfie Hewett's first-serve percentage is down at 47% and Tokito Oda is feasting on his second serves, sending plenty back for winners.

Even more alarming is that Hewett has only won four of 17 points on his own serve, whether the first one lands or not.

By reaching the final here in Paris, Dan Powell has already beaten the achievements of his dad Terry who won two judo bronzes in Seoul and Atlanta.

He was very emotional after his earlier golden point semi-final win over France's Cyril Jonard, who had beaten the Briton at the Worlds.

Brazil's Arthur Cavalcante da Silva awaits in the final - what can Powell do?

Away from Roland Garros, Great Britain's Dan Powell will shortly be aiming to lock in his first Paralympic title in the men’s -90kg J1 final at the Champs-de-Mars Arena.

The European silver medallist's previous best finish was seventh at both Tokyo 2020 and London 2012.

Powell, from Liverpool, takes on Brazil’s Arthur Cavalcante da Silva - who came fifth in Tokyo.

GB could win two medals in Para-judo today. Powell's team-mate Chris Skelley goes for bronze in the men’s +90kg J2 contest at approximately 17:00 BST.

Alfie Hewett is clearly trying to keep the points short. Tokito Oda is doing everything he can to make Hewett move.

Hewett fends off break points but the huge backhand of Oda puts him in firmly in the driving seat as he comes out to serve for the first set.

The home fans have already had something to cheer about here, with Cyril Jonard securing a bronze medal in the men's -90kg J1 division.

France have another three fighters in action later in the session and they will definitely have the crowd on their side.

There is a despondent grimace from Alfie Hewett to his team and the first two points go Tokito Oda's way. It is very hard work for Hewett at the moment, and he really looks very uncomfortable at the moment, as he is broken to love.

Oda, in contrast, is weaving all around the court like a clay shark. Hewett is off going to chat to his coaching box and he really is not looking happy.

A drop shot that kisses the net cord and drops in at least draws a smile from Hewett, and the crowd are really trying to get behind him so they can see a match.

Well now. Let’s go indeed, as Hewett roars. He breaks.

It's fair to say that Japanese flags are significantly outnumbering the Union flag on Court Philippe Chatrier - Tokito Oda has plenty of support here.

And they have plenty to cheer about as the 18-year-old moves into a 4-0 lead.

This is looking ominous for Alfie Hewett, although chants of "Alfie" have just broken out as the crowd try to raise his spirits.

After a 10-minute pause for treatment for Alfie Hewett, he doesn't look entirely comfortable but let's see how he gets on with his serve.

The answer is - not that great. It will most likely take him some time, but his mobility on the court seems to be a bit hampered for now as he gets broken straight away.

A straightforward hold follows for Tokito Oda. And a commanding opening-set lead.

BBC Radio 5 Live

Penny Briscoe, ParalympicsGB chef de mission, has been speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live about the team's performances:

"We did something that no other nation had done in Tokyo, which was to deliver medals in 18 sports. We've switched wheelchair rugby out for shooting at these Games, with the guys so close in fourth place.

"One of the characteristics in Para-sport in GB is the fact we don't just focus in on one or two sports. We cast the net broadly and embrace all sports and I think that helps us in terms of the position we’re in on the medal table.

"Tokyo was an interesting games - not everyone was able to show their A-game. It depended on how they navigated the pandemic and I think we did an incredible job as a UK high performance system in keeping our athletes fit and well, and maintaining training regimes.

"I think my take was that Paris would be a line in the sand and we've seen standards go up.

"We're delighted by the breadth of sports that have medalled and some of the debutants' performances as well. It's always great to see new talent and that's been a focus for us."

Tokito Oda is keeping warm and loose by wheeling around the court while Alfie Hewett receives treatment. And here is the Briton, getting strapped into his tennis chair and ready to resume...

Charlotte Henshaw won gold in the women's VL3, as well as setting a new Paralympic record of 55.70 seconds:

"This is the first VL3 event in the Games for women and I have really taken the bull by the horns in the last few years and we really wanted to move this event along.

“I came across to this sport in 2016 after three Games as a swimmer and I was so grateful that I got another chance to be part of this movement. I love being a part of ParalympicsGB. The support that we have continued to get from the British public since London 2012 is something that we don’t want to give up."

Emma Wiggs, who won gold in the women's VL2, said afterwards:

"Just so pleased to have done it for the team. It has been a really tough three years since Tokyo so really proud.

"My race number is 44 which happens to be my age so when I was given that I thought 'maybe that is a bit of a bad omen'.

"But it shows anything is possible and that’s mainly because other people believe in what I can do and that helps me find that belief."

Fin Graham on winning gold: “Amazing. I was eyeing up winning a gold. The time trial didn't go as planned, I would have liked a bit of a better position than sixth but that's racing.

"This race, the French made it hard because it was two against one for the whole race. It was hard to figure out what their plan was and what their tactic would be, but the boys played it perfectly in the first lap, Matty [Robertson] keeping the pace high and then when the gap went they just shut it down and prevented anyone else from coming over. It panned out perfectly."

On the sprint: “I didn’t really know what their plan was because they were talking in French the whole race. Even with the time gaps, the motorbikes were coming up and speaking in French so I was having to ask them.

"I had no idea what their plan was and then Alex [Leaute] led up the final climb and that was his attempt to lead Thomas [Peyroton-Dartet] out. In the last couple of races I've managed to beat him in a sprint so I felt fairly confident.

"I wanted him to lead it out because it was quite far from the last corner and I was confident enough that I was going to be able to come past him."

On winning gold: "It is the pinnacle of our sport. I have got world titles and stuff but Paralympic gold, nothing compares to it. That's what we work towards every four years, to be able to come away with that is amazing."

With a break in play at Roland Garros, let's see what ParalympicsGB's three gold medallists so far have had to say...
