In pictures: Paris Para-Athletics World Championships, last day at Charléty Stadium

The French-Malian athlete Nantenin Keita, daughter of singer and musician Salif Keita, participated in the final of the 400m (category T13, visually impaired). World champion in the 400m in 2006 and 2015, Olympic champion in 2016, she remains at the highest world level and wants to end her career in apotheosis at the Paralympic Games in Paris. For this final of the Worlds, Nantenin failed for 4 hundredths at the foot of the podium, finishing 4th behind the Brazilian Soares da Silva (57.90 against 57.94). So close to the goal, there is no doubt that Nantenin Keita will be keen to take revenge next year at the Paralympic Games in Paris.
