    22:10 The German women's wheelchair basketball team make it through to the gold medal game after victory over the Netherlands! They will play the USA and the Dutch will face Great Britain for bronze on Friday.
    18:13 We reckon Marcel Hug has probably got the biggest smile in Rio right now - he's on the podium collecting his gold medal from the 800m T54.
    16:50 A sensational finish from Liam Malone, who holds on to claim gold in the men's 400m T44 with a new Paralympic record of 46.21! David Behre and Hunter Woodhall collected silver and bronze.
    16:07 Raymond Martin's gold in the men's 1,500m T52 has capped off a remarkable Games for the American. "It feels amazing that I can continue my success from London 2012. This was my last event so I wanted to go out with a bang."
    15:46 Great Britain's Emma Wiggs says she is "over the moon" after winning gold in the women's KL2 final at Lagoa Stadium. "It's an overwhelming feeling of emotions and adrenaline," she said.
