She started the competition well, achieving good positions against her two opponents, but her elimination ends Mozambican participation in the Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>The national delegation at the world\u2019s largest sporting event was made up of seven athletes, three fewer than in Tokyo, when the country had the largest contingent since its debut in Moscow, Russia, in 1980.<\/p>\n<p>In the rollcall of Mozambique\u2019s participation, the performance of boxers Tiago Muxanga and Alcinda Panguana stands out, with a record of one victory each. This was the first time that Mozambique had won in this sport at the Olympic Games.<\/p>\n<p>The two boxers were eliminated in the round of 16, falling to Mexican Marco A\u0301lavarez and Liu Yanga respectively, the latter being the world champion. At the last edition of the Olympics, Alcinda was eliminated by Chinese boxer Hong Go. Tiago Muxaga, who was participating in the games for the first time, was the first athlete to secure a victory for Mozambique.<\/p>\n<p>The other Mozambican representatives, Matthew Lawrence and Denise Donelli in swimming, Jacira Ferreira in judo and Steven Sabino in athletics, failed to make it past the first round of the competition.<\/p>\n<p>Sabino in fact didn\u2019t compete, being disqualified for a false start. The athlete started the race before the signal, which precipitated a decision by the organization in light of the regulations governing world athletics.<\/p>\n<p><b>24 years without medals<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Mozambique has not won any medals at the Olympic Games since Maria de Lurdes Mutola won the 800 metres in 2000.
