Cork's Orla Barry 'absolutely delighted' with silver at Rio Paralympics

Cork’s Orla Barry found silver lining with her second-place finish in the F57 discus throw in Rio today, having overcome a plague of doubts which had threatened to derail her medal chances earlier in the week, writes Cathal Dennehy.

The 26-year-old from Ladysbridge was a bronze medallist at the 2012 Games in London, but in warm, humid conditions in the Olympic Stadium, she went one better today.
