Daniil Medvedev denied raising his middle finger to the crowd after being booed during his defeat to Grigor Dimitrov at the Paris Masters football
The Russian was beaten 6-3 6-7 (4) 7-6 (2) in the round of 32 and even stopped playing in the second set until the boos stopped inside the Accor Arena, which prompted an argument with umpire Renaud Lichtenstein after he was given an official time violation football
The world No 3 admitted he did not want to carry on playing but also knew he risked being disqualified from the match if he refused to do so football
The drama started in the second set when, with the scores level at 5-5, the 27-year-old received jeers from the Parisian crowd after throwing his racket while stepping up to serve football
Medvedev gestured to the crowd to be quiet and walked back to his bench in protest and told the umpire he would not play until they stopped football
In turn, Medvedev received a time violation for delaying the game football
In the end, Bulgarian Dimitrov battled to a three-set win after he let six match points slip before finally dispatching his opponent on the seventh to advance through to the last 16 football
Medvedev received more boos as he walked off the court and appeared to give the middle finger to the crowd, something he later denied football
After the match, he told a press conference: “I just checked my nails, like this, no really it’s nothing more than that football
Why would I do that to this beautiful crowd in Paris Bercy?“I threw the racket, I get booed, normal football
I don’t see a problem with that football
I go to serve and they applaud or something but I want to serve so they shouldn’t applaud, so I still serve and the referee was talking during this, so Grigor wasn’t ready football
“This happens, but I get booed, I didn’t see why so I didn’t want to play and that’s actually the end of the story football
“I was like OK, until they boo I’m not going to play but the Bercy crowd doesn’t stop to boo and then when I got the code I was like ‘do I really want to get disqualified and finish the match on this note?’ So I just went on to play football
”Elsewhere, six-time Paris Masters champion Novak Djokovic began his campaign with a 6-3 6-2 victory over Tomas Martin Etcheverry football
The Serbian will face Tallon Griekspoor in the last 16 football
Seventh seed Stefanos Tsitsipas also progressed in straight sets, beating Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-3 7-6 (4) football

The World Cup semi-final football between New Zealandand Argentina may come to be a contest best forgotten, but All Blacks wing Will Jordan will remember it as the night where he joined a group of try-scoring greats - and should have surpassed them football

Late on at the Stade de France, the game long since decided and New Zealand electing to play with 14 men in a show of their superiority, Jordan was had clear run ahead of him with the Argentina defence narrowed football
Jordan bellowed for the ball; his fly half ignored him, going it alone in search of a try of his own to leave Jordan left with arms and mouth agape football
