Nigeria’s table tennis star Aruna Quadri has bowed out of the 2024 ITTF World Cup in Macao.
Despite starting well in Group 15, Aruna was at his best against the Portuguese star, but his performance could not match up with that of the European.
Aruna put up a good fight from the start but surrendered the first quarter 12-10.
The second was much like the first one despite the hard work, the Portuguese player edged the game again 11-9 and he claimed the 3rd set again 11-9.
Aruna fought hard to win the final set it was just a formality 11-3.
The defeat confirmed Aruna’s exit from the tournament despite having the record of being the best African in the tournament, having reached the quarterfinals in 2014 in Germany.
