No, Bruno Fernandes is not at the Tokyo Olympics despite some people claiming to have seen him on the podium.

That's actually Tunisia's Khalil Jendoubi who won a silver medal in the taekwondo 58kg category on Saturday.

The 19-year-old lost out on a gold medal after losing a tight contest to Italy's Vito Dell'Aquila.

Jendoubi was even asked about the comparison following his gold medal match-up.

Though he reckons he looks more like former Arsenal man Mesut Ozil.
