Nyree Kindred expected tough final

Paralympics 100m backstroke silver medallist Nyree Kindred has admitted that she expected a tough final after she just missed out on gold.

Kindred also said that she hopes her medal will lift the rest of the swimming team in their respective finals tonight.

"I knew tonight would be tough," Kindred told Channel 4. "Tonight I was aiming to go as hard as I can and I can't ask for more.
