Australia's judo campaign at the Tokyo Games is over, with Olympic debutant Aoife Coughlan losing her second-round bout.

The 25-year-old from Melbourne beat Kinaua Biribo of Kiribati under a minute on Wednesday in the 70kg class.

But German Giovanna Scoccimarro had her measure in the round of 16, winning in one minute five seconds with an Ippon O-soto-gari throw.

None of the three Australians progressed past the second round.
