:00:00. > :00:09.It is a wonderful afternoon on day five. Plenty coming your way between
:00:10. > :00:12.now and 7pm. We have a mouthwatering hockey clash at next, England's
:00:13. > :00:26.women taking on Australia. The boxing has been terrific so far.
:00:27. > :00:28.Sean McGoldrick is facing an historic second Commonwealth gold.
:00:29. > :00:39.We will see if he progresses beyond the round of 16. As the afternoon
:00:40. > :00:39.We will see if he progresses beyond badminton. Rebecca Tyler
:00:40. > :00:50.We will see if he progresses beyond a shout for a medal in the women's
:00:51. > :00:59.69 kilograms weightlifting. Some really great sport under way. What
:01:00. > :01:04.better way to start the match than a great women's hockey match? The
:01:05. > :01:10.Aussies have wrapped up 22 gold medals. The winners had a great
:01:11. > :01:21.chance of topping the group. Let's join our commentators.
:01:22. > :01:29.COMMENTATOR: Carrie McMahon celebrating her 50th cap for
:01:30. > :01:56.Australia this afternoon. So this is the move that the
:01:57. > :02:03.Australians like to employ before they get going. The huddle is a
:02:04. > :02:17.place of secrecy. Sometimes the cameras are allowed in, but not
:02:18. > :02:20.today. We are ready to go. I am alongside Mel Clewlow, who I know is
:02:21. > :02:26.very much looking forward to this match. WHISTLE
:02:27. > :02:30.Me and everyone else at home, I think. We are under way. Australia
:02:31. > :02:37.in green and gold, playing from left-to-right. England in red and
:02:38. > :02:42.white, their traditional colours, attacking the goal to our left.
:02:43. > :02:48.Neither team has lost, neither team has conceded a goal. It could be the
:02:49. > :02:58.battle of the goalkeepers, Lynch of Australia against Hinch of England.
:02:59. > :03:09.In terms of height, the Australian Lynch wins it hands down.
:03:10. > :03:15.Brought forward by the captain. Donna Blyth. Now the captain, Katie
:03:16. > :03:34.Eastern. Held up by Sam Querrey. -- held up by Sam Quek. Susie
:03:35. > :03:42.Gilbert still going. Runs into space. The pass was illegally
:03:43. > :03:58.stolen. It was by the Australian, Georgina Parker. Diagonal ball
:03:59. > :04:10.across, Sam Quek I'm able to control that. Claxton for Australia. That is
:04:11. > :04:20.a big mistake for Australia. White shirts in front. Long corner for
:04:21. > :04:29.England. Good work through. In the end, two Australian shirts doing the
:04:30. > :04:33.tackling. Richardson-Walsh getting a stick on the ball but it is green
:04:34. > :04:44.and gold on the right with Claxton, a little look up, intercepted by
:04:45. > :04:50.England. The ball spread from one side to the other. Flanagan down the
:04:51. > :04:56.left-hand side for Australia, goes past one, finds the edge of the Dee,
:04:57. > :05:01.a little turn, shot at goal, not enough pace on it to trouble the
:05:02. > :05:15.England defenders. Bone for Australia. Kenny for Australia.
:05:16. > :05:32.Australia on the right firing that across, hits the top of the D.
:05:33. > :05:46.Madonna Blyth wanted that. Kenny again. Both sides taking a couple of
:05:47. > :05:54.minutes to settle down. Owsley makes a good tackle, runs herself into
:05:55. > :06:00.acres of space in the centre here. Back to the defence for England to
:06:01. > :06:08.build another meaningful attack. Owls Lee. Wearing number ten, Susie
:06:09. > :06:17.Gilbert, for England. Off an Australian foot. Danson. Always an
:06:18. > :06:22.air of excitement when she is on the ball, England well positioned here.
:06:23. > :06:27.It just needed to reach the stick of Susanna Townsend and it was behind
:06:28. > :06:47.her, agonisingly. Great play by England, Susanna Townsend, and Lily
:06:48. > :07:00.a heavy clash between Sam Quek and the Australian number two, Georgia.
:07:01. > :07:11.Kenny. Flanagan again. The two penalty corner specialists sharing
:07:12. > :07:17.possession for Australia. Into the D. Well rescued. A little look up,
:07:18. > :07:26.glance left, Lily Owsley is therefore England. Flat on her face.
:07:27. > :07:33.Looking for her stick and back on the pitch. Blyth, the Australia
:07:34. > :07:40.captain, scrambling away. Australia hit. Flanagan. Good work from
:07:41. > :07:58.Flanagan. Finds her way into space. It will be in trusting to see how
:07:59. > :08:08.much pitch time she gets and what times her spells are on the field.
:08:09. > :08:14.Georgie Twigg, with that nasty injury she picked up, struggled to
:08:15. > :08:24.walk for a couple of days. Here she is, Twigg. Her next touch let her
:08:25. > :08:29.down, here come Australia with numbers forward. Well rescued. What
:08:30. > :08:45.on the left for England, nice little sliding ball -- Watton. England in a
:08:46. > :08:58.great position, and a stumble. Barely Watton's attempt on goal --
:08:59. > :09:02.Ellie Watton. Both of the two attacking opportunities falling away
:09:03. > :09:07.of England. An encouraging start. Nice move from Townsend. Sent the
:09:08. > :09:13.ball round the player and she went round the other way, can she drill
:09:14. > :09:17.it in across the face of goal? It flashes in front of Rachel Lynch.
:09:18. > :09:27.Brilliant play. Susanna Townsend has been at the heart of both England
:09:28. > :09:30.opportunity so far. Ellie Watton with a bit more experience might
:09:31. > :09:34.have tried to take it around the goalkeeper. Fantastic by England so
:09:35. > :09:37.far and really positive to put this Australian defence under pressure.
:09:38. > :09:45.far and really positive to put this Up and over, attempted control by

:10:36. > :10:43.back there covering for England. A good pass from Parker but
:10:44. > :10:44.back there covering for England. A unfortunately Wood unable to control
:10:45. > :10:59.it. Jodie Kenny. Out to the left-hand
:11:00. > :11:03.side for Australia. A poor pass. A funeral is from both sides, with the
:11:04. > :11:07.basics in the early stages here. That is a good interception from
:11:08. > :11:10.Madonna Blyth. Georgie Twigg trying to make up for her mistake, all the
:11:11. > :11:20.way to the edge of the D. Strong position for Australia, can she
:11:21. > :11:41.unload here? It is clear. Excellent run from J Taylor, the Australian
:11:42. > :11:42.number 21 -- Jayde Taylor. Jodie Kenny trills it
:11:43. > :11:45.number 21 -- Jayde Taylor. Jodie one was just too hot to handle,
:11:46. > :11:53.three bounces before stick of White, and went behind.

:12:20. > :12:28.when England play as well, she plays well, Alex Danson plays well.
:12:29. > :12:32.when England play as well, she plays seems to me that the formations they
:12:33. > :12:32.are playing sued both of those players.
:12:33. > :12:40.are playing sued both of those moment. A penalty corner, the first
:12:41. > :12:46.of the match. Jayde Taylor was bundled off the ball. It clipped an
:12:47. > :12:52.England foot. Let's have another look at this with Mel Clewlow. Yes,
:12:53. > :12:57.Hollie Webb did the right thing in trying to close down. Unfortunately
:12:58. > :13:04.just off-balance, she jabbed the ball, it has ended up on her foot.
:13:05. > :13:09.So, it is time to watch out for Jodie Kenny, the number seven, for
:13:10. > :13:16.Australia, and Anna Flanagan, who wears number nine. They will be
:13:17. > :13:20.looking for a little bit of power and pace to put pressure on the
:13:21. > :13:22.England defender. Here we go, the first penalty corner of the game,
:13:23. > :13:31.England defender. Here we go, the first penalty corner of the it is
:13:32. > :13:35.Kenny, it is 1-0! Hinch of England beaten for the first time in the
:13:36. > :13:39.Commonwealth Games tournament. Jodie Kenny gets the opening goal of the
:13:40. > :13:44.match. Absolutely brilliant by Kenny. She has scored seven in this

:13:49. > :13:52.enough, went stick side of Amy Gibson in goal. This time she has
:13:53. > :14:01.opted to go above the heads of the post players. Fantastic return,

:14:06. > :14:08.off to a flying start, although to be fair England have had the better
:14:09. > :14:31.attacking opportunities. Twigg. defence. Australia starting to build
:14:32. > :14:53.up a head of steam. Claxton down the right-hand side. Richardson-Walsh
:14:54. > :15:02.tidy it up. A mistake there, terrible news for England, England
:15:03. > :15:06.2-0 down. The mistake by Smith. Richardson-Walsh trying to play it
:15:07. > :15:16.across the circle. Initially a good save, Emily Smith making it 2-0.
:15:17. > :15:21.England making such a bright start, the counterpunch from Australia,
:15:22. > :15:27.that is why they are one of the best teams in the world. England looking
:15:28. > :15:54.for a reply, a swing and miss from Gilbert. Flat on her face. A
:15:55. > :16:01.determined effort, good response. Scotland put Australia's back four
:16:02. > :16:12.under pressure, they had opportunities, but could not make
:16:13. > :16:28.them count. England claim for the short corner, but possession is with

:16:41. > :16:56.sidelines, she has ice on her shoulder. -- Lucy Wood. Alex Danson
:16:57. > :17:04.waiting to come on, she could make the difference this afternoon. They
:17:05. > :17:10.desperately need a goal. We saw Scotland's men going down 2-0 to
:17:11. > :17:28.Wales, before fighting back to win it for-3. -- to win it for-3. --
:17:29. > :18:02.for-macro-3. Ashlee Nelson, Bowden behind her.

:18:13. > :18:23.Quek is on the bench, Alex Danson on the field, England need to find her.
:18:24. > :18:33.A card is being shown. The first one of the match.
:18:34. > :18:42.Let's break from the hockey. We left the bowls, Scotland in total

:25:00. > :25:16.getting the heat in. Spotting Unsworth. -- hit.
:25:17. > :25:24.It is the speed of the Australian attack which is so impressive, just
:25:25. > :25:31.before the halfway line they spring into life. The pace they are running
:25:32. > :25:40.with, something they will do for the full 70 minutes. Gilbert, wriggling
:25:41. > :26:06.away out of trouble. Finding Georgi twigged. Can Danson get the shot in?
:26:07. > :26:15.Unlucky. -- Georgie Twigg. The Australian supporters know that Alex
:26:16. > :26:25.Danson can turn a match. Shipperley was tripped. Accidental is the call
:26:26. > :26:29.from umpire Sarah Wilson. Too many passes missing the target for
:26:30. > :26:36.England. Another one going astray there from the England captain,
:26:37. > :26:51.Richardson-Walsh has not had a great first half so far.
:26:52. > :27:04.Kenny, Flannigan tipping it forward. Owsley, weaving her way through.
:27:05. > :27:15.Good start from her. That is a high cross. One of the Australians taking
:27:16. > :27:42.it in the chest. Karim El Ahmadi winning her 50th cap. -- Carrie
:27:43. > :28:08.McMahon. Flannigan on the left-hand side.
:28:09. > :28:16.That one was right across the turf. Lucy Wood. Sam Quek need some help.
:28:17. > :28:24.Owsley, Shipperley, I beg your pardon. This is Taylor, for
:28:25. > :28:37.Australia. A good pick-up from Sam Quek. Nice trap. Can they feigned
:28:38. > :28:43.Owsley? -- can they find. Not enough on it to pick up Sophie Bray. Owsley
:28:44. > :28:54.is held up, the shot on goal just wide. Lily Owsley taking into the
:28:55. > :28:58.Australians. Fantastic stick skills, leading up into this unfortunately,
:28:59. > :29:02.the ball just bounced before she made contact with it. She tried to
:29:03. > :29:06.hit it off her right foot, which meant the ball was probably always
:29:07. > :29:11.going to go towards that right post, but a really bright couple of
:29:12. > :29:16.minutes for Lily Owsley. Laura Unsworth in a little bit of space on
:29:17. > :29:24.the left. Yes, a lack of telepathic communication between the England
:29:25. > :29:35.players there. This one is high, and illegal. Gilbert. Unsworth. Unsworth
:29:36. > :29:40.runs a false call, and finds the captain. -- a full circle and finds
:29:41. > :30:03.the captain. That one spinning off an England
:30:04. > :30:05.leg. Danson coming back on for England now, number 15. She takes
:30:06. > :30:17.her place back on the pitch. Kenny, the scorer of Australia's
:30:18. > :30:42.first. Another highball. The umpire said about halfway about
:30:43. > :30:49.ten times each, before the players got into the right position. Just
:30:50. > :31:01.over the stick of Alex Danson. A difficult one. Anna Flanagan for
:31:02. > :31:18.Australia. In no rush to go forward here. Jodie Kenny and Flanagan just
:31:19. > :31:21.sharing possession between them. Hi Paul -- a highball, Georgie Twigg
:31:22. > :31:29.takes it down, just about controls it. Kate Richardson-Walsh having to
:31:30. > :31:35.head back into the centre circle. Now Twigg has a bit of space on the
:31:36. > :31:38.left. Danson picks it up, good acceleration from her, she finds
:31:39. > :31:50.space and then drops forward, hoping for some service.

:32:37. > :32:45.Because it bounced so close to her, it would have been extremely
:32:46. > :32:53.difficult to track. The last five minutes of the half. Australia 2-0
:32:54. > :33:03.England. And the Australians getting the decision there from the umpire
:33:04. > :33:10.from New Zealand. Kenny. Flanagan wants it on this right-hand side,
:33:11. > :33:12.she might get it via Madonna Blyth. A weave inside from Anna Flanagan,
:33:13. > :33:15.she might get it via Madonna Blyth. A weave inside from Anna flick over
:33:16. > :33:30.the top. Richardson-Walsh there to tidy up for England.

:34:16. > :34:19.the moment. A chance for Australia, looking for a foot and they get the
:34:20. > :34:26.the moment. A chance for Australia, penalty corner, that is what they
:34:27. > :34:29.wanted. Again, England are guilty of giving the ball away in their
:34:30. > :34:36.defensive third. Hollie Webb this time. This is just great
:34:37. > :34:40.Kellie White, spinning on a sixpence. Defensively you don't know
:34:41. > :34:43.whether to put the tackle income whether to go flat, whether to stay
:34:44. > :34:49.high. Let's be honest, the Australian penalty corner routine is
:34:50. > :34:58.phenomenal, so why not put it on the foot? Flanagan is not on the field
:34:59. > :35:06.at the moment so it looks like Kenny might have
:35:07. > :35:14.Here she goes bust up good Maddie Hinch leaping to her left,
:35:15. > :35:20.getting a big padded glove on that ball. I think England will be happy
:35:21. > :35:25.to hear the half-time hooter but happier if they went in with a goal.
:35:26. > :35:33.At the moment, they are being forced to defend, as Australia come
:35:34. > :35:40.forward. Kenny. Right across the turf, that one physicist of the
:35:41. > :35:49.stick and behind. -- it fizzed off the stick.
:35:50. > :36:09.All the way back to the captain, Blyth.
:36:10. > :36:20.A good-looking cross, bouncing, dealt with nicely. Now, can England
:36:21. > :36:27.clear their lines? That is high. England get possession with just
:36:28. > :36:31.over a minute of the half to play. This is the penalty corner. Kenny
:36:32. > :36:33.going for the corner that she has already scored from. It is Laura
:36:34. > :36:37.Unsworth in the already scored from. It is Laura
:36:38. > :36:39.save, above her head. Maddie Hinch never touched it, I think she
:36:40. > :36:53.probably had it covered. That one has bounced kindly for
:36:54. > :37:00.England. They will just hope to run the clock down now with the last 35
:37:01. > :37:14.seconds of the half ticking away. Jenner. Danson putting pressure. So,
:37:15. > :37:25.England have 20 seconds to get upfield. And they will just want to
:37:26. > :37:35.hold possession now. And that will be that. So, at half-time Australia
:37:36. > :37:41.will go in 2-0 in front. APPLAUSE Jodie Kenny got the first. It was
:37:42. > :37:49.from the penalty corner. The second from Emily Smith. Australia off and
:37:50. > :37:53.running after a decent first half, where England had plenty of the
:37:54. > :37:57.possession, but in the end none of the luck. After the first 35-minute
:37:58. > :38:04.period of play, the scoreline here is Australia 2-0 England.
:38:05. > :38:09.A fascinating second-half to come from Glasgow. England have got it
:38:10. > :38:14.all to do, while here at Pacific tea, it is beautiful, Day five of
:38:15. > :38:20.2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games, and after a couple of cloudy days, the
:38:21. > :38:26.Sun has made its reappearance and it is glorious here in Glasgow. If you
:38:27. > :38:30.can just have a look at some of the people who have come out, a hive of
:38:31. > :38:34.activity, looking beautiful. Lots of kids enjoying their summer holidays,
:38:35. > :38:40.of course. The ice cream van is doing some good as this is welcome

:55:08. > :55:11.once it's on the right. -- once it. -- wanting it on the right-hand
:55:12. > :55:18.side. We need to get more people in the press. That makes it difficult
:55:19. > :55:23.for Owsley and Danson to break the Australians down. Flannigan came
:55:24. > :55:27.sprinting off the bench, getting Australians down. Flannigan came
:55:28. > :55:41.involved within one second of leaving her seat. Hollie Webb never
:55:42. > :56:01.saw her coming. Kenny is on the right.
:56:02. > :56:15.play. England steal it. They carry on. Looking for the Australian foot.
:56:16. > :56:23.England still in the right sort of area.

:57:37. > :57:40.Ansley. Richardson-Walsh. That is picked up by Susannah Townsend.
:57:41. > :57:46.Australia are playing picked up by Susannah Townsend.
:57:47. > :57:52.when England get the ball, they are forcing them to the sidelines. That
:57:53. > :57:53.becomes an extra defender. They are just waiting for England to make the
:57:54. > :58:31.mistakes. The ball was taking high, put on the
:58:32. > :58:43.ground. England with five players forward. A lack of control from
:58:44. > :58:50.Shipperley. A little flick to the right.
:58:51. > :58:55.Australia spreading the play far and wide and they have four yellow
:58:56. > :59:01.shirts in the deep, driven in, picked up. A little turn. Nanscawen
:59:02. > :59:30.unable to shoot. Richardson-Walsh. That will be an
:59:31. > :59:38.Australian ball. Taylor is there to take it. Flanagan and Peris going up
:59:39. > :59:50.to the attacking zone. Bray for England down the left, darts inside,
:59:51. > :59:58.keeps possession. It was off an Australian foot. It is England's
:59:59. > :00:06.ball. Shipperley. Georgie Twigg. Brady. Unsworth. Hit from behind.
:00:07. > :00:10.Looks around to the umpire, claiming that she was
:00:11. > :00:21.Looks around to the umpire, claiming given. Australia move forward again.
:00:22. > :00:27.Good reactions, ball cut out. A good clean pass as well. Nice turn.
:00:28. > :00:32.Danson is calling for it on the right. It was a weak pass. Danson
:00:33. > :00:36.was not helped at all. She has managed to recover and now she is in
:00:37. > :00:49.a good attacking position. England keep possession. Shipperley.
:00:50. > :00:58.Nelson. Nice pick-up for Australia. Looking menacing again. WHISTLE
:00:59. > :01:02.And there is a card coming here for Laura Unsworth. Unsworth will have a
:01:03. > :01:15.two minute sit down. So Australia have the power play.
:01:16. > :01:18.For the next two minutes, they have a player over. Jodie Kenny slides
:01:19. > :01:36.that one in. Australia have a penalty corner,
:01:37. > :01:40.that is what they wanted. The longer Australia spend in the Inman centre
:01:41. > :01:46.circle, the more likely they are to hit a foot. That is what happened.
:01:47. > :01:51.Emily Smith just bounces the ball onto the turf. She has three
:01:52. > :01:55.Australians around her. Nowhere else to go. She tries to lift it out of
:01:56. > :02:06.the way. Smith with a great little dink. Then it is the stick check.
:02:07. > :02:22.Casey Eastham steps up to attack for Australia. England are poised. It is
:02:23. > :02:27.Kenny. It is a goal. 3-0. Australia 3-0 England, Jodie Kenny's second.
:02:28. > :02:35.Is there any way back here from England? She has not make the Maddie
:02:36. > :02:40.Hinch, gone straight down the middle of the field. I am not sure it has
:02:41. > :02:46.got a touch off Annesley first. This will probably show it. It has taken
:02:47. > :02:57.a deflection off the number one runner, Lily Owsley. Wrong footed
:02:58. > :03:05.Hinch in goal. -- it got a touch off Ansley first.
:03:06. > :03:19.Under 20 minutes to play. Australia 3-0 England. Unsworth's time on the
:03:20. > :03:26.bench is over, and she trots back onto the field, for complement,
:03:27. > :03:38.Australia able to exploit the numerical advantage, getting their
:03:39. > :03:46.third. Sam Quek for England. Quick again. Danson. Neat little turn,
:03:47. > :03:51.reverse stick. All it needed was contact. Unfortunately for England
:03:52. > :03:56.Ellie Watton was unable to provide any. This is the difference between
:03:57. > :03:58.an Australia side and an England side at the moment. Australia would
:03:59. > :04:03.have been downloaded, the entire stick would have been on the floor,
:04:04. > :04:07.already waiting. They would have used all 36 and a half inches of the
:04:08. > :04:15.stick to try and deflect that ball to the goal. What is that in
:04:16. > :04:34.centimetres? CHUCKLING A lot.
:04:35. > :04:44.Richardson-Walsh, the England captain. She has seen it all before.
:04:45. > :04:45.Nanscawen's dive gives Australia position for a moment but England
:04:46. > :04:59.have the ball now. Laura Unsworth coming forward,
:05:00. > :05:07.trying to take Laura Unsworth coming forward,
:05:08. > :05:16.hit. Kate Richardson-Walsh there. Quek back to Danson. That is where
:05:17. > :05:32.she is at her most dangerous, Danson. Danson will have another go.
:05:33. > :05:49.Richardson-Walsh. Unsworth. Picked up well by Lucy Wood, who then loses
:05:50. > :05:59.out, and Australia charge forward. Led by Kellie White. This is Parker,
:06:00. > :06:04.the number 19. Wood has it back. Looks around for her options. No one
:06:05. > :06:11.in front. Richardson-Walsh slides it back to Georgie Twigg. Alex Danson.
:06:12. > :06:18.That is good play from Danson. Just wriggling out of trouble. There it
:06:19. > :06:25.ends. Unless Sam Quek can pick this up but it falls to Australia's
:06:26. > :06:32.number four, Casey Eastham, who releases players down the right and
:06:33. > :06:46.forward. Madonna Blyth. McMahon on the left.
:06:47. > :06:57.Jenner. Kenny. Flanagan. Claxton is in front. Flanagan takes it alone,
:06:58. > :07:17.and finds Eastham Shot on goal for Australia.
:07:18. > :07:23.Everybody wants a piece of this. It is a goal for Australia to go 4-0 in
:07:24. > :07:29.front. The final touch provided by Kellie White. This one is being
:07:30. > :07:41.referred by England. They are looking for a back stick.
:07:42. > :07:49.So the suggestion from England is that the ball was struck on the
:07:50. > :07:52.legal side of the stick. I don't think it is Kellie White putter shot
:07:53. > :07:56.that is the problem. I think it is this one here from Georgie Parker.
:07:57. > :08:05.We need to see it from the other side.
:08:06. > :08:15.Yes. It should be overturned, in opinion. It could have been six of
:08:16. > :08:26.one, half a dozen of the other. England will hope it is overturned.
:08:27. > :08:33.Here is the decision now. I think the video umpire wants to see this
:08:34. > :08:37.again. Yes, it is an excellent call by the England captain, Kelly
:08:38. > :08:44.Richardson-Walsh. Yes, that was the decisive angle, that one. The fact
:08:45. > :08:47.Richardson-Walsh. Yes, that was the that the Australians had not really
:08:48. > :08:53.retreated over their half would suggest that they agree.
:08:54. > :09:05.I have a decision for you. a back stick. England keep their
:09:06. > :09:11.referral. Thank you. WHISTLE No goal. England keep their
:09:12. > :09:19.referral. A good decision from Kate Richardson-Walsh, she is happy about
:09:20. > :09:22.that. The last 15 and a half minutes of the match, England get a bit of
:09:23. > :09:27.luck, following a good decision from Kate Walsh. But the scoreline still
:09:28. > :09:32.makes positive reading from Kate Walsh. But the scoreline still
:09:33. > :09:44.Australian point of view. Nothing working for England now. Lily
:09:45. > :09:49.Owsley. A yellow card for Nanscawen, second time off the field. She will
:09:50. > :09:56.sit for five minutes, a five-minute period of play, it will take us
:09:57. > :10:04.towards the last ten minutes. Can England just make the most of this
:10:05. > :10:10.superiority? One goal just might start the ball rolling. One penalty
:10:11. > :10:12.corner would give them confidence. Georgia Nanscawen off the field for
:10:13. > :10:46.five minutes this time. Sam Quek. Susie Gilbert to the left. Three
:10:47. > :10:55.England players on the semicircle. Good speed. Picked up by Australia.
:10:56. > :11:01.Only as far as Sam Quek. Quek takes the free hit, the Unsworth. Unsworth
:11:02. > :11:06.shapes for a cross and then jinks inside. Can she find an Australian
:11:07. > :11:13.foot? They are all stepping out of the way, no penalty corner. The
:11:14. > :11:18.Australians treading lightly in their own semicircle. Well taken,
:11:19. > :11:27.Laura their own semicircle. Well taken,
:11:28. > :11:37.sun. Lily Owsley. Penalty corner! At last, a breakthrough for England.
:11:38. > :11:41.Lily Owsley, I thought she had dribbled it too far with Unsworth
:11:42. > :11:46.wide, but that is an awful tackle by Anna Flanagan. Feet planted, swung
:11:47. > :11:51.the stick, easy decision for Wilson, the Scottish umpire, to
:11:52. > :11:54.make. The first corner of the game, and England used a number of options
:11:55. > :12:06.in their previous game against Malaysia. Sam Quek is there, Kate
:12:07. > :12:13.Richardson-Walsh is up. The choice of three potential hitters here. It
:12:14. > :12:21.is held up. Oh! Just wide. Pushed behind. Sam Quek's attempt was
:12:22. > :12:29.strong, but saved. Opted for the slip move. Not sure if it was
:12:30. > :12:37.goalkeeper or Australia player but either way they kept the ball out.
:12:38. > :12:43.England still with the player over. Here it is again. I think it came
:12:44. > :12:59.off the player. Susie Gilbert fighting for position
:13:00. > :13:01.here for England. Trying to find a way through. Support from behind.
:13:02. > :13:08.Now Unsworth in the way through. Support from behind.
:13:09. > :13:14.forced to go all the way back. They are still a player over here.
:13:15. > :13:17.Nanscawen sitting on the bench in front of us. Danson is back on for
:13:18. > :13:51.England. own half, the quicker Australia will
:13:52. > :13:56.regain their full complement. Danson, explosive acceleration, good
:13:57. > :14:03.pass to back it up. England coming forward in numbers. A nice little
:14:04. > :14:15.turn, Unsworth asking for it on the right. Penalty corner to England. So
:14:16. > :14:18.much better by England, moving the ball to the top of the circle,
:14:19. > :14:23.much better by England, moving the something we have not seen in this
:14:24. > :14:38.game. Townsend getting a touch, playing it off the Australian foot.
:14:39. > :14:53.England's penalty corner, Susie Gilbert will inject. Maybe Danson,
:14:54. > :15:00.maybe Ansley. Saved again. England cannot find a way through that wall
:15:01. > :15:13.of green and gold shirts. Ten minutes to go, 3-0 to Australia.
:15:14. > :15:19.Australia are back to full straight. Jodie Kenny having another blinder.
:15:20. > :15:26.That is what you post players therefore. Does not swing the stick,
:15:27. > :15:43.just glances it away. The power play has been and gone. A good pick-up.
:15:44. > :16:32.Unsworth. Little flick to the right. Townsend's three hit. -- free hit.
:16:33. > :16:42.He was in England foot on the ball. -- it was. Australia take the aerial
:16:43. > :16:44.route out. Kate Richardson-Walsh has it all to herself down the left-hand
:16:45. > :17:06.side. Pushing forward. England ball. Richardson-Walsh will take the long
:17:07. > :17:10.corner. That is swept in. Going straight into the circle, it needs
:17:11. > :17:32.to move five metres before it gets in there.
:17:33. > :17:48.White, for Australia. A clash of heads. Richardson-Walsh coming out
:17:49. > :17:54.worse. Kate Richardson-Walsh gets very low in the tackle, I think her
:17:55. > :18:00.hip has gone into the side of the head. Having been through what she
:18:01. > :18:06.did in London, she will be up very quickly. That is just a little bump
:18:07. > :18:33.camp Aird to what happened at the Olympic Park. -- just a little
:18:34. > :18:41.camp Aird to what happened at the in. Kenny showing great control.
:18:42. > :18:43.Seven in. Kenny showing great control.
:18:44. > :18:55.minutes for England to close the gap. Or for Australia to extend it.
:18:56. > :19:01.England's unbeaten run appears to be coming to an end here. Unsworth is

:19:33. > :19:41.semicircle. Richardson-Walsh there to tidy up. Penalty corner to
:19:42. > :19:52.Australia. England may get this one checked out. The referral is coming.
:19:53. > :20:02.A corner off a foot? They are saying no foot? It is a simple either or.
:20:03. > :20:08.A corner off a foot? They are saying Down to the video evidence.
:20:09. > :20:17.Definitely not a foot. Down to the video evidence.
:20:18. > :20:22.said it was dangerous, coming off Ansley's stick. The communication
:20:23. > :20:56.may not have been correct. Definitely not a foot.
:20:57. > :21:30.That is when the whistle blew. No penalty corner. Under six minutes to
:21:31. > :21:49.play. Goes to Claxton. Finding Georgina Parker. A reverse stick
:21:50. > :21:57.attempt, going behind. Danson with a bit of room to manoeuvre. She was
:21:58. > :22:33.claiming she was tackled unfairly. We are into the last five minutes of
:22:34. > :22:38.this match. If England lose, they are not out of the competition,
:22:39. > :22:45.winning their first two matches, beating Wales and Malaysia. Looks as
:22:46. > :23:00.if Australia will maintain their unbeaten record. Having already
:23:01. > :23:02.defeated Malaysia 4-0, Wales 9-0, Scotland 5-0. They are yet to
:23:03. > :23:20.concede. A bouncing ball, taking a few more
:23:21. > :23:27.seconds off the clock. Richardson-Walsh reacting well.
:23:28. > :23:43.Unsworth backing Iraq. Sam Quek on the right. Danson as usual, quick to
:23:44. > :24:04.turn. The pass was to nowhere. Edwina Bone. Richardson-Walsh, Lucy
:24:05. > :24:25.Wood. Danson will take the long corner. -- Unsworth backing up.
:24:26. > :24:34.The ball is still in play, going all the way back to England territory.
:24:35. > :24:51.The players with one final defensive run. White, flat on her face.
:24:52. > :25:07.Nothing wrong with that. Still down. Let's see this one again.
:25:08. > :25:31.Back on her feet. Danson for England, into the corner, behind.
:25:32. > :25:37.Sam Quek. The last couple of minutes, can England restore some
:25:38. > :25:44.respectability to the scoreline. Richardson-Walsh, reverse flick,
:25:45. > :25:47.nice pass. Delicately forward, and Danson able to turn and shoot. A
:25:48. > :26:11.straightforward save. Rachel Lynch. Richardson-Walsh, Danson asking for
:26:12. > :26:17.it in the D. It is Australia's ball, with less than 90 seconds to
:26:18. > :26:23.go, England are running out of chances. A great effort by Alex
:26:24. > :26:31.Danson, using her back foot to squeeze it into gold. -- goal. An
:26:32. > :26:44.easy save in the end, Sam Wood trying to get onto the deflection.
:26:45. > :27:00.Under one minute to play. Owsley. Trying to charge and barge to wade
:27:01. > :27:07.through. Danson getting the free hit. Kenny coming away with it for
:27:08. > :27:19.Australia. That was too far. Susie Gilbert's
:27:20. > :27:50.pass, just impossible. Well Dunne it is over. Will there be
:27:51. > :27:56.a final penalty corner. Right before the tutor, it may have clipped one
:27:57. > :28:06.of the England defender is on the lower leg. -- well... It is over.
:28:07. > :28:13.You are looking for a foot inside the circle. Australia claiming it
:28:14. > :28:21.bounced through. That may give them a chance to make it 4-0. The
:28:22. > :28:30.question will be the height, it has hit Owsley above the shin pad. It
:28:31. > :28:37.could be given as a penalty corner. They have their defensive kit on.
:28:38. > :28:45.The Australians have all their players on the circle edge. It looks
:28:46. > :28:55.like it caught her on the knee. I think it is about. Let's wait and
:28:56. > :28:57.hear what the decision gives us, will it be over, or one final
:28:58. > :29:16.penalty corner to enjoy? I have a decision for you. There was
:29:17. > :29:18.a foot, therefore penalty corner. WHISTLE
:29:19. > :29:31.England have won further penalty corner to defend. Australia leading
:29:32. > :29:32.3-0. A chance to make it four. Kenny has two already, and it
:29:33. > :29:36.3-0. A chance to make it four. Kenny her the chance to make it a
:29:37. > :29:40.hat-trick. No, it has gone to Flanagan. It is saved. And it is
:29:41. > :29:51.behind. And that will be that. Flanagan. It is saved. And it is
:29:52. > :29:57.Australia's Victor Riu, by 3-0. In a different class here, really,
:29:58. > :30:01.Australia. Jodie Kenny, two goals courtesy of the penalty corner
:30:02. > :30:10.routines, backed up by Emily Smith's goal. 3-0, the final score.
:30:11. > :30:17.England down but certainly not out of the Commonwealth Games hockey
:30:18. > :30:20.tournament. They have played three, lost two and 11 of their matches,
:30:21. > :30:32.for Australia, four matches, four winds, -- four wins.
:30:33. > :30:38.Some record champions. They have scored 25 goals
:30:39. > :30:42.in their four games in the group may have yet to concede a goal, as the
:30:43. > :30:46.commentary team just stated. For England, a setback to their hopes of
:30:47. > :30:49.topping the group, but they are expected to get through to the
:30:50. > :30:55.knockout phase. That is it for the time being, in terms of our coverage
:30:56. > :31:01.of Glasgow 2014, back with plenty more after a quick news update.
:31:02. > :31:09.We've got factory boys and butchers' apprentices and office clerks
:31:10. > :31:37.Back to Glasgow after a quick update.
:31:38. > :31:39.Lightning, hail, torrential rain and floods.
:31:40. > :31:40.Severe weather's hit parts of South East England.
:31:41. > :31:47.Some railway staff called it a "zombie apocalypse".
:31:48. > :31:51.That's Tulisa, speaking after the collapse of her drugs trial.
:31:52. > :31:54.She's told us she thought about taking her own life.
:31:55. > :31:57.Top Gear did breach broadcasting rules
:31:58. > :32:01.That's the ruling from the TV watchdog.
:32:02. > :32:05.The remark, from Jeremy Clarkson, was in a Burma special.
:32:06. > :32:07.Former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen is heading Down Under.
:32:08. > :32:10.He's signed a two-year deal to play for Melbourne Stars
:32:11. > :32:17.More from us later, right now let's get back to Manish,
:32:18. > :32:26.I leave the ashram, travel halfway across the world to find my father,
:32:27. > :32:34.Oh, well. As Vashrati says, gotta keep smiling!
:32:35. > :32:37.We don't tend to use the bathroom together here.
:32:38. > :32:39.All right, well, I'll catch you later.
:32:40. > :32:42.This ashram of yours, it might be a cult.
:32:43. > :32:46.I take it back, he's definitely Cuckoo's son.
:32:47. > :33:15.I would say Glasgow is atmospheric, passionate, colourful. Deep-fried.
:33:16. > :33:23.Deep-fried chocolate bar. Chicken tikka masala. Deep-fried everything.
:33:24. > :33:27.Cold and windy, and the weather changes all the time. It doesn't
:33:28. > :33:35.always rain. Loupe it does rain in Glasgow but that is OK. Tartan,
:33:36. > :33:40.smiles. The people know how to have a good time. You have to talk bit
:33:41. > :33:45.slower, I struggle on accent. People come away from Glasgow struck by its
:33:46. > :33:47.sheer friendliness. That is how it is known, is a warm and welcoming
:33:48. > :33:59.place. Hello there, good to have you with
:34:00. > :34:03.us on BBC Three as we bring you all of the drama and excitement on day
:34:04. > :34:11.five of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. After a spell of wet, cold
:34:12. > :34:13.and windy weather, the city is bathed in gorgeous sunshine,
:34:14. > :34:16.including George Square at the heart of the city, people in and around
:34:17. > :34:21.the city of Glasgow having a fantastic time. Here we are just
:34:22. > :34:24.outside the BBC Scotland studios. Just have a look at the stage here,
:34:25. > :34:30.this is where it will all be happening, it is the place to be at
:34:31. > :34:38.8pm tonight. If we have a quick look at the drum set over there, Wet Wet
:34:39. > :34:49.Wet will be taking to the stage, same -- famous Scottish imports will
:34:50. > :34:54.be taking to the stage. I suppose there is not much better ways if you
:34:55. > :34:57.are a fan than to soak up the atmosphere and wait the last three
:34:58. > :35:01.or four hours until they take the stage. This will be buzzing, and by
:35:02. > :35:06.the way, of course there is no room for any more tickets or people
:35:07. > :35:10.within vicinity, but you can catch the coverage on the BBC Sport
:35:11. > :35:14.website, or of course on BBC radio Scotland. Here on day five, there
:35:15. > :35:19.was a chance we could see the crowning of a Commonwealth legend at
:35:20. > :35:26.these games. You might remember England's shooter by the name of
:35:27. > :35:30.Mick Gault had equalled the record of any Commonwealth Games medals won
:35:31. > :35:36.by any individual. Could he take the record outright by claiming his 19th
:35:37. > :35:41.medal in the 50-metre pistol? Unfortunately, this was not to be.
:35:42. > :35:46.He could not repeat the form he showed on Saturday. He failed to
:35:47. > :35:52.qualify for the final stages of the 50-metre pistol, but what can we
:35:53. > :35:59.say? A staggering 18 Commonwealth medals to make bold's name, -- Mick
:36:00. > :36:05.Gault. Well done to him on what has been a staggering career. In
:36:06. > :36:09.Carnoustie at the Barry Buddon Shooting Centre, one of them is
:36:10. > :36:14.called a prone, and is the name suggests, the rifle list lies down
:36:15. > :36:16.while taking aim at the target. Here is all you need to know about prone
:36:17. > :36:28.as a sport. In Glasto, there are three rifle
:36:29. > :36:36.events each for men and women. Ten-metre, 50-metre prone and
:36:37. > :36:41.50-metre three positions. All events are held on a shooting range, and in
:36:42. > :36:47.each competitors have a set time to fire a certain number of bullets at
:36:48. > :36:50.electronic targets. Each target features ten concentric circles with
:36:51. > :36:54.scores from one to ten. In the ten-metre event, the shooters
:36:55. > :36:59.remained standing at all times and use both arms to support the gun. In
:37:00. > :37:03.the 50 metres prone, competitors have to lie on their fronts while
:37:04. > :37:07.shooting at the target. In the 50-metre three positions event, they
:37:08. > :37:12.have two fire while standing, kneeling and lying prone. The top
:37:13. > :37:18.eight from the qualification round in each event goes through to the
:37:19. > :37:22.finals. Qualification for the finals took place earlier today, and there
:37:23. > :37:25.is a strong contingent, in terms of the home nations, who finish in the
:37:26. > :37:29.top eight go through to the finals, but there was no John Hammond from
:37:30. > :37:35.Scotland. The reigning defending champion who took gold in Delhi four
:37:36. > :37:41.years ago. So there will be a new Commonwealth champion.
:37:42. > :37:51.COMMENTATOR: At the top, it is Samson. That man has two sit it out.
:37:52. > :37:56.It is always hard when you are the first person to stand up and walk
:37:57. > :38:00.away. He will be thinking about what could have been. The defending
:38:01. > :38:03.champion, Scotland's John Hammond, not even in the final. Yes, just
:38:04. > :38:14.didn't make the cut today. There is the wind, it is getting up.
:38:15. > :38:18.Yes, but it is from the right direction here, so this is the
:38:19. > :38:34.consistent wind direction for the shooters on the range, so we should
:38:35. > :38:37.see some high-scoring shots here. A 10.94 Parr, listen to the England
:38:38. > :38:47.fans cheering, that was excellent stuff from the Englishman. CHEERING
:38:48. > :38:52.He will be absolutely delighted with that, not that you will see it in
:38:53. > :39:02.his face. He is all compensation, and his father was happy with that
:39:03. > :39:07.as well. Sampson of Australia and Potent of Australia, it is an
:39:08. > :39:14.Australian 1-2 at the moment. It is tight at the bottom. Gary Duff, Ryan
:39:15. > :39:24.Taylor, and if Naz air Khan is not a sharpshooter in this round, he could
:39:25. > :39:27.be in trouble as well in this round. This is what the fans come for, this
:39:28. > :39:42.elimination stage gets very exciting. Duff and Taylor the two
:39:43. > :39:48.with the most to do. Kenny Parr hoping to replicate his form from
:39:49. > :39:50.the last series. That is Duff. He shot a nine,
:39:51. > :39:54.the last series. That is Duff. He is Taylor going to do? Nine, maybe
:39:55. > :40:00.not enough. What is Taylor going to do? 9.5 from Belfast, the engineer
:40:01. > :40:12.who will have to beat a retreat here. But he started pretty well. He
:40:13. > :40:17.shot a 10.7 in the opening shot of this competition, but he couldn't
:40:18. > :40:27.keep it going, and he is out in seventh place. The Aussies are equal
:40:28. > :40:32.in first, really tight there. Narang will not be too worried, just 0.2
:40:33. > :40:42.behind. Look how close it is tween first and sixth.
:40:43. > :40:58., Riu these are the two Australians. Potent on the right-hand side. They
:40:59. > :41:00.are not worried about elimination. They are concentrating on a possible
:41:01. > :41:16.gold medal. 10.1 from Parr. Sampson with a 10.3
:41:17. > :41:19.and Potent with a 10.1, so Sampson edges
:41:20. > :41:26.and Potent with a 10.1, so Sampson with a 10.2 not far behind either.
:41:27. > :41:30.On a day like today, many of the athletes will be looking to keep the
:41:31. > :41:33.On a day like today, many of the shops in the ten ring. If you can do
:41:34. > :41:39.that, you have a very good shout of getting a medal in this final. Now
:41:40. > :41:47.we concentrate on the other end of the standings. Ryan Taylor, 1.7
:41:48. > :41:52.behind Nasir Khan of Malaysia. But we have seen in this wind you can
:41:53. > :41:55.have a feud Duff shots and you can be out by
:41:56. > :42:01.have a feud Duff shots and you can Absolutely, it can be detrimental.
:42:02. > :42:11.So Taylor and Nasir Khan are the two feelings of the heat at the moment.
:42:12. > :42:21.Tailored needing a really high ten -- Taylor needing. Good shooting
:42:22. > :42:26.from others further up the table. Taylor and Nasir Khan taking their
:42:27. > :42:32.time. 9.8 from Taylor, 9.6 from Nasir Khan, and it is not enough for
:42:33. > :42:37.the kiwi. Taylor was adrift by 1.5 points in the end, so I think he
:42:38. > :42:43.can't have any complaints. No, it is a clear elimination at this point.
:42:44. > :42:50.The 34-year-old. A man who likes his cricket as well. His dad competed in
:42:51. > :42:53.the lipid games in 1976, so it runs in the blood, and I am sure he will
:42:54. > :42:58.be happy to have been in the final. A little bit disappointed not to get
:42:59. > :43:03.a medal but we are getting down to the business end here. Just five
:43:04. > :43:13.left. Australians still ahead of the game. Narang has won so many medals
:43:14. > :43:17.here. He was saying how he was hoping for a ninth gold medal but it
:43:18. > :43:23.is becoming a bit of a battle. He is just over a point away from Warren
:43:24. > :43:27.Potent, so it is still very much anybody's game here. Back to the two
:43:28. > :43:34.Australians at the top of the leaderboard. 0.2 separating them.
:43:35. > :43:40.This wind is dying down at it as well. Parr with a 10.7, how can the
:43:41. > :44:09.Aussies respond? Kenneth Parr. Looking pretty safe
:44:10. > :44:16.for a top four finish, only 0.4 away from the medals. What an exciting
:44:17. > :44:23.format this is. They have changed it around, and it works. You have to
:44:24. > :44:29.make sure those first shots, you really named them. Otherwise you can
:44:30. > :44:46.get a quick elimination, no chance to come back. -- really nail them. A
:44:47. > :44:52.deep breath from Khan. Kenneth Parr will be hoping for a 9.3. That
:44:53. > :45:03.should be enough. 10.4. A really good shot. It will save him from
:45:04. > :45:11.elimination, he is one point away from the bronze medal.
:45:12. > :45:24.A great story, he almost quit a couple of years ago. His boss said,
:45:25. > :45:36.don't do it. They will be delighted how well he has done. So... There
:45:37. > :45:43.were four. Somebody will get that horrible fourth position. Just one
:45:44. > :46:04.point between Kenneth Parr, and Sampson of Australia. He has had a
:46:05. > :46:08.couple of wobbly shots. Kenneth Parr qualifying second for this and the
:46:09. > :46:16.air rifle competition, did not get a medal in the air rifle. As long as
:46:17. > :46:28.it is not a horrible shot, should be OK. 9.4. That is fantastic. You
:46:29. > :46:48.called it earlier on. Potent upping his game. Fabulous shooting. He
:46:49. > :46:55.clawed back 0.5 of a point, still half a point behind, a big ask. Not
:46:56. > :46:57.impossible. By no means impossible. The wind is doing all sorts. One
:46:58. > :47:15.good shot could see him through. This one is an elimination shot,
:47:16. > :47:31.Kenneth Parr, 0.5 behind Samsung. A 10.6 from Samson. -- behind
:47:32. > :47:46.Sampson, a 10.6 from Sampson. Now a 9.7 from Sampson, Parr leapfrogged
:47:47. > :47:55.him. Well, whether it was the wind, the Australian misses out on a
:47:56. > :48:05.medal. Fourth place is horrible. Congratulations to Sampson. The
:48:06. > :48:11.27-year-old, finalist in the air rifle, finishing eighth. Did better
:48:12. > :48:15.here, but agonisingly, not quite enough for his high standards. Who
:48:16. > :48:43.will get the bronze? Parr is behind Narrant. Still all to
:48:44. > :48:48.play for. It is Potent's to lose. He will be looking to keep it steady,
:48:49. > :49:00.in the tens or the high nines comedy should be safe. -- hi nines, he
:49:01. > :49:06.should be safe. They will be hearing all of this hubbub. They were trying
:49:07. > :49:13.to unit out, think of their technique. 30 seconds on the clock.
:49:14. > :49:30.The first of two series to determine the bronze. 10.4 from Parr, 10.2
:49:31. > :49:42.from Narrang, clawing it back. Potent solid, that will keep him in
:49:43. > :49:48.goal. -- gold. Not .7 the difference between Parr and Narrang. Very
:49:49. > :49:55.doable, but it isn't asked. The wind is getting up a bit. -- but it is an
:49:56. > :50:09.ask. The Australians can hardly bear to
:50:10. > :50:15.watch. He is the man in pole position, the other two scrapping to
:50:16. > :50:29.make sure they can fight for the silver and gold. A good shot from
:50:30. > :50:35.Parr. Not going to be enough. A really, really good effort from the
:50:36. > :50:41.Englishman, Kenneth Parr. Fighting his way from certain elimination, he
:50:42. > :50:49.will take the bronze. The English fans absolutely delighted. Everyone
:50:50. > :50:56.clapping the 27-year-old. A couple of silver medals in Delhi, he has a
:50:57. > :51:09.bronze to add to his collection, and a big hug from his dad. A really
:51:10. > :51:11.close-knit bunch of athletes. Two more shots, and we will know who has
:51:12. > :51:33.gold and silver. 1.6 is the difference. 10.8 from
:51:34. > :51:47.Narrang, Potent will need a covering shot. 15 seconds left. Down by one
:51:48. > :51:55.point. All of a sudden, all very different.
:51:56. > :52:06.It is very, very see, 0.6 the difference. All down to
:52:07. > :52:16.this last shot. Someone will go away see, 0.6 the difference. All down to
:52:17. > :52:26.with silver, somebody will claim the gold. Narrang, on the right-hand
:52:27. > :52:34.side, the 31 you rolled, the veterinary from Australia, the
:52:35. > :52:43.51-year-old, Warren Potent. -- the veteran.
:52:44. > :52:50.51-year-old, Warren Potent. -- the ability. Potent looking for a ten.
:52:51. > :53:03.51-year-old, Warren Potent. -- the That will do it. Great composure at
:53:04. > :53:08.the end. Warren Potent. He has had silver and bronze in the
:53:09. > :53:17.Commonwealth Games, this is a gold for Australia and Warren Potent. He
:53:18. > :53:24.has one of the biggest smiles in shooting, why not display it now,
:53:25. > :53:31.the man from Sydney. The Australian triumphs, Narrang does not get his
:53:32. > :53:40.ninth Commonwealth gold comedy has to settle for silver. He has a few
:53:41. > :54:01.of those as well. -- Commonwealth gold, hast to settle. A bronze for
:54:02. > :54:08.Kenneth Parr of England. Well done, Kenneth Parr, winning
:54:09. > :54:14.bronze for England. That was dramatic at the end, 0.2 points
:54:15. > :54:21.separating the winner and second place. There are always fascinating
:54:22. > :54:26.stories to tell behind the athletes and competitors, none less so than
:54:27. > :54:31.the Welsh boxer, Sean Murdoch Drake, he will be hoping for a
:54:32. > :54:43.straightforward route to the gold medal, his experience in Delhi, four
:54:44. > :54:48.years ago was different. What was it like having a Commonwealth medal?
:54:49. > :54:55.There was a red pressure on me. I was just there to enjoy the
:54:56. > :55:10.experience. -- there was zero pressure. It will go to count back.
:55:11. > :55:18.Yes, it has done. He has got it. Silver medal for Sean McGoldrick. It
:55:19. > :55:25.was a strange way to won the gold. I was boxing in the final, losing the
:55:26. > :55:30.fight on Karabakh. The gold medal was not awarded. Seven weeks later,
:55:31. > :55:36.the guy failed his drug test. Justice was served, he got banned,
:55:37. > :55:41.the gold medal was taken away, and I got it. What will it mean to be in
:55:42. > :55:49.Glasgow to win the gold medal, on the podium hearing the Welsh
:55:50. > :55:53.national anthem. It will be special, I am telling myself I won gold, but
:55:54. > :55:59.I want to focus on one fight at a time. It will be pretty special to
:56:00. > :56:09.get it twice. With the team we have got, we have a very good chance of
:56:10. > :56:13.taking the medals. I believe we can finish high in the medal tables,
:56:14. > :56:18.higher than England and Scotland, our team is that good.
:56:19. > :56:32.It was at the SECC, just along the River Clyde, where he began the
:56:33. > :56:46.defence of his Commonwealth title against Jackson Wood.
:56:47. > :56:50.Wales against Australia in the bantamweight contest, the winner to
:56:51. > :56:56.go through to the quarterfinals. One more, you get yourself a medal.
:56:57. > :57:09.Shawn Michaels Rick, eventually got his gold medal, drawing on seven
:57:10. > :57:14.punches a piece against the shrill Hangeland, subsequently stripped of
:57:15. > :57:24.the gold medal because he failed a drugs test. McGoldrick has that
:57:25. > :57:29.medal in his closet somewhere. Jackson Wood box that the limping
:57:30. > :57:37.games in London, the cousin of Luke Wood, who boxed in Delhi, four years
:57:38. > :57:44.ago. McGoldrick is the man to beat, can he be the first Welsh athlete to
:57:45. > :57:50.retain a Commonwealth title? He is in the blue, Wood is in the red. The
:57:51. > :57:57.thoughts of Richie Woodall? I have worked with McGoldrick many times
:57:58. > :58:04.for Team GB, very good on the inside. His strength is his short
:58:05. > :58:12.and mid-range work. We try to work with him on moving his head, going
:58:13. > :58:22.to the body. There is his left work. -- hook. I think the Australian will
:58:23. > :58:41.be vulnerable on the inside. Sean McGoldrick will have two tries
:58:42. > :58:53.to negate that advantage -- he will have to try.
:58:54. > :58:58.There is a lot of leather getting thrown by Jackson Woods, but it is
:58:59. > :59:13.not really landing. Physically, Sean McGoldrick is very
:59:14. > :59:25.strong. He is one of the strongest in the squad. A very strong man for
:59:26. > :59:31.a little fellow. The uppercut is not a bad option when you have someone
:59:32. > :59:36.shorter. For me, Sean McGoldrick is easing his way to victory, although
:59:37. > :59:45.it is a close one. They have really contrast in styles. Sean McGoldrick,
:59:46. > :59:53.he finishes the rounding confident fashion. It is a close round. He
:59:54. > :00:00.pushed Jackson Woods back onto the ropes. He will have success with the
:00:01. > :00:08.fast jab. Sean McGoldrick scored well with that jab stop a good guard
:00:09. > :00:14.coming in. The movement, the target of the body. That was good work.
:00:15. > :00:29.What do the wise men think. Two of them have given it to Jackson
:00:30. > :00:31.Woods. It was a close round. We need to see more of that work downstairs
:00:32. > :00:50.from Sean McGoldrick. In the lead on two of the three
:00:51. > :00:58.judges' cards, Jackson Woods. In the Olympic games he lost narrowly. A
:00:59. > :01:02.couple of points between him and the Algerian. The Australians thought he
:01:03. > :01:08.had got it. Sean McGoldrick will have to go a little bit now. Picked
:01:09. > :01:16.off a few times in the opening round. He would seem to have all of
:01:17. > :01:21.the tools, can he employ them? He has to move their head better. He
:01:22. > :01:33.has two double jab and when he gets there he has to throw threes and
:01:34. > :01:40.fors -- and fours. He has to target. The uppercut again coming through
:01:41. > :01:44.from the Australian. He just let him off the ropes. The opportunity, he
:01:45. > :01:54.has to work and he failed to take it again. Jackson Woods, he gets into a
:01:55. > :02:06.clinch and holds on. The uppercut. A good body shot. He has hurt him.
:02:07. > :02:10.That was a lovely left hook. Jackson Woods looked vulnerable suddenly.
:02:11. > :02:20.Sean McGoldrick piled home the advantage. Jackson Woods is
:02:21. > :02:25.resilient. Jackson Woods is not learning from his mistakes, staying
:02:26. > :02:31.on the ropes, Sean McGoldrick must take advantage. He has to keep the
:02:32. > :02:37.pressure on. After losing the first round, he needed a big response and
:02:38. > :02:43.he has produced that. And then uppercut from Sean McGoldrick.
:02:44. > :02:52.Pulling out all of the tools from the box. Jackson Woods is tiring.
:02:53. > :03:02.What a good response this has been by Sean McGoldrick. He has ripped
:03:03. > :03:13.the second round away from the Australian. He has to keep it going.
:03:14. > :03:18.He did enough in the opening two and a half minutes to take this, I
:03:19. > :03:28.think. Rink position is crucial. He has slowed up stop now he must go to
:03:29. > :03:34.work. Right-handed. Not as effective as a few minutes ago, but a better
:03:35. > :03:40.round. The right-hand coming across from the Welshman. Jackson Woods
:03:41. > :03:48.under pressure. He will be delighted to hear the bell. He is exhausted.
:03:49. > :04:01.He very nearly was stopped in that round with some hardbody shots. He
:04:02. > :04:07.held his feet on the ropes. Kevin Smith, the Australian coach, trying
:04:08. > :04:08.to motivate his boxer. McGoldrick had a good round, working to the
:04:09. > :04:12.to motivate his boxer. McGoldrick body. A couple of shots came back
:04:13. > :04:21.from Jackson Woods. McGoldrick body. A couple of shots came back
:04:22. > :04:26.him in this corner. Good work. The sharp right uppercut was a great
:04:27. > :04:32.shot. But the body shots took their toll.
:04:33. > :04:46.How the charge can give the RAM to Jackson Woods, I will never know.
:04:47. > :04:51.How the charge can give the RAM to give the round. McGoldrick knows he
:04:52. > :04:58.cannot leave anything to chance. He has to win the last round and he has
:04:59. > :05:00.to win it well. Has Jackson Woods recovered his composure from the
:05:01. > :05:07.severe battering? recovered his composure from the
:05:08. > :05:15.not let him off the hook. He has to cut out the Australian's reach
:05:16. > :05:23.advantage. You know you are one punch away from the feet slowing
:05:24. > :05:30.down again. That was a good right hand from McGoldrick. The Welsh
:05:31. > :05:37.contingent are saying, come on, come forward. He has come forward. Double
:05:38. > :05:45.up the attack. Sustain the pressure and move their head. The uppercut
:05:46. > :05:51.again from Jackson Woods. McGoldrick has landed just before that. He does
:05:52. > :05:58.not want his man in the middle of the ring, where he can move more. He
:05:59. > :06:05.has to trap him and finish him. Better by McGoldrick, yet again. He
:06:06. > :06:16.has to close the gap and go to work, that is better. Terrific stuff to
:06:17. > :06:20.the body by McGoldrick. Again, the uppercut from the Australian not too
:06:21. > :06:30.many miles away. Come on, Sean McGoldrick. Just about a minute
:06:31. > :06:42.remaining. He has to keep working. He has to
:06:43. > :06:50.throw more than singles. He has to pressure him. He has taken his foot
:06:51. > :06:54.off the gas. That is better. Finding a little bit in the tank he did not
:06:55. > :06:59.think was there. Can the Australian hang on to produce one of the upsets
:07:00. > :07:06.of the tournament so far? McGoldrick needs a good last 40 seconds.
:07:07. > :07:18.Jackson Woods is getting him with the odd shot. He has two keep him
:07:19. > :07:25.there. The last 25 seconds. Jackson Woods, flailing. McGoldrick means to
:07:26. > :07:37.steady himself. He is looking tired. Needs another big attack. The last
:07:38. > :07:45.ten seconds. You have to go for it. One last Goodbody shot from
:07:46. > :07:49.McGoldrick. Was it enough? -- good body shot. The hand goes up from
:07:50. > :08:00.Jackson Woods and this will be too close to call. One of the judges has
:08:01. > :08:05.given both rounds to Jackson Woods. I do not know how he got that second
:08:06. > :08:10.round but nevertheless, this was close to call in the last round.
:08:11. > :08:17.McGoldrick coming forward. Needed more head movement. Four shots going
:08:18. > :08:22.in, then he switched to the head. McGoldrick blocks that. It is
:08:23. > :08:24.close. Jackson thought he got it at the end. McGoldrick thought he had
:08:25. > :08:46.got it. Who knows? We have a split decision. Through to
:08:47. > :09:00.the quarterfinal, in the blue corner... CHEERING.
:09:01. > :09:09.The Commonwealth champion gets the chance to defend his title and
:09:10. > :09:12.become the first Welsh athlete to win successive medals in the
:09:13. > :09:19.Commonwealth Games. He will certainly want to reflect on that.
:09:20. > :09:24.Jackson Woods, the Olympian from two years ago will be disappointed. You
:09:25. > :09:36.can see how relieved Sean McGoldrick is. Well done. Did you think you had
:09:37. > :09:43.got it? I thought I had done enough. I can get the ball rolling now. You
:09:44. > :09:52.probably knew you lost the first round, how much pressure did it put
:09:53. > :09:58.new? It was tough. He was a little bit too fast on his movement in the
:09:59. > :10:09.first. I had to get behind the jab more. I slowed him down. It was a
:10:10. > :10:16.tough fight. I did what I had to do. Does it weigh on your mind, being
:10:17. > :10:21.effectively defending champion? What happened four years ago was four use
:10:22. > :10:28.ago. This is a different week. Every time I go into a fight, I give 110%.
:10:29. > :10:38.I hope to come away with a medal, but it will be tough. It was tight,
:10:39. > :10:41.but Sean McGoldrick safely negotiated his first round match. We
:10:42. > :10:47.will keep you up-to-date with his progress. I was there yesterday, it
:10:48. > :10:55.was baking. We could have done with an ice cream. I was going to push to
:10:56. > :11:00.the front. We can get our first taste of badminton. To the mixed
:11:01. > :11:06.team final event that involves England. They took bronze at Delhi
:11:07. > :11:11.four years ago. Standing in their way are the current defending
:11:12. > :11:15.champions and favourites Malaysia. England took on Malaysia. David
:11:16. > :11:32.Mercer in the commentary box. The momentum is the English way this
:11:33. > :11:45.time, even though he is one down. I sense he is on a roll. You worried
:11:46. > :11:46.me. I should not do this as a commentator, but that is the fun
:11:47. > :12:13.part! The curse of the commentator. That is the Malaysian singles coach
:12:14. > :12:17.on the right and a member of a famous Badminton family. On his left
:12:18. > :13:00.was the doubles coach. He keeps going behind. He is
:13:01. > :13:03.catching up. It would be nice if he could do so again from an English
:13:04. > :13:42.perspective. As usual, the coach is not giving a
:13:43. > :14:00.lot As usual, the coach is not giving a
:14:01. > :14:04.obviously giving his points of view in the breaks. It would be very
:14:05. > :15:23.difficult for me to sit that still. I think Chong Wei Feng is doing the
:15:24. > :15:33.right thing. He is keeping it very steady, very safe, and not taking
:15:34. > :15:42.too many chances. Ouseph at the moment is making the mistakes.
:15:43. > :15:49.Not this time. Incredible athleticism in top class badminton.
:15:50. > :15:52.Not this time. Incredible Chong Wei Feng
:15:53. > :15:57.Not this time. Incredible getting straight back up. This is a
:15:58. > :16:10.chance to attack. Good shot. Really nice shot, did not
:16:11. > :16:30.wait for it. Once again, Chong Wei Feng leads by
:16:31. > :16:35.four points. Ouseph has twice come back from that deficit to level but
:16:36. > :16:50.it is a little late in this opening game to expect him to do so again.
:16:51. > :17:22.That is his favourite shot too, Ouseph. Yes, it is.
:17:23. > :17:33.Too many errors at a crucial stage here from Ouseph. I must admit I was
:17:34. > :17:41.wrong. I really thought at the mid-game interval, it was only 11-10
:17:42. > :17:46.to Chong Wei Feng, I really thought that Ouseph had a very good rhythm.
:17:47. > :17:52.He was getting in there. It seems to be coming right for him but I think
:17:53. > :18:01.the interval kind of broke it up for him. It broke his rhythm and now he
:18:02. > :18:04.is making too many mistakes and 19-14 is a very commanding lead.
:18:05. > :18:20.Once again, a packed arena. We are right next door to the Sir
:18:21. > :18:39.Chris Hoy Velodrome. A couple of hundred yards from Celtic Park.
:18:40. > :18:45.You have to say, that was another error from Ouseph so five-game
:18:46. > :18:58.points for Chong Wei Feng. Good defence, very nice defence by
:18:59. > :19:23.Ouseph. That crosscourt was beautifully played.
:19:24. > :19:40.This time he gets it right. Too many of those have drifted long.
:19:41. > :19:57.Yes, well short of the baseline, just inside the sideline.
:19:58. > :20:14.So the opening game goes to Chong Wei Feng, 21-17 in 18 minutes.
:20:15. > :20:28.And in a way, frustrating for Ouseph more, in that having come twice
:20:29. > :20:32.back, to be in contact, it got away from him. It was more his poor play
:20:33. > :20:38.than superb play from Chong Wei Feng. Yes, Chong Wei Feng is sitting
:20:39. > :20:44.back quite nicely and waiting for the opportunities given to him like
:20:45. > :20:50.what we just saw. But you are right, Ouseph is making too many mistakes
:20:51. > :20:55.and kind of unforced. He has got to find that rhythm, he has got to
:20:56. > :21:01.stand better on the court, his defence has to be up and running and
:21:02. > :21:05.then start working his way and waiting for the opportunities. It is
:21:06. > :21:16.like he is trying to hard to Bush and therefore he is making mistakes.
:21:17. > :21:24.Trying to hard to push. England's banker was the mixed doubles which
:21:25. > :21:29.they did win. Then there were two 50-50 matches, this one and the
:21:30. > :21:34.women's doubles and one felt that England had to win one of those to
:21:35. > :21:39.regain the gold medal from Malaysia who have won it in the last two
:21:40. > :21:45.Commonwealth Games. I think if Malaysia wins this men's singles,
:21:46. > :21:47.they stand a very good chance of taking the men's doubles afterwards
:21:48. > :21:54.and the women's singles which would make it 3-1. But let's see. Ouseph
:21:55. > :23:07.still has hopefully two games. A good start for Chong Wei Feng. He
:23:08. > :23:08.led 4-0 in the first game. Ouseph never led at all in that opening
:23:09. > :23:56.game. That is better! Much more patient
:23:57. > :24:03.and waiting for the right moments to attack. Yes, the best rally that
:24:04. > :24:07.Ouseph has played and that is the answer should he get back into the
:24:08. > :24:10.match. That will force Chong Wei Feng a little
:24:11. > :24:14.match. That will force Chong Wei He is sitting back and waiting and
:24:15. > :24:17.getting opportunities and scoring them but he is
:24:18. > :24:22.getting opportunities and scoring on the mistakes of Ouseph. Can
:24:23. > :24:26.Ouseph cut them down and wait and take his chances? Then we will see
:24:27. > :24:57.if he can get back in the match. And the fact that Chong Wei Feng
:24:58. > :25:03.went for the line there just perhaps suggests he is feeling a little more
:25:04. > :25:18.under pressure now. If this carries on, yes, he will.
:25:19. > :25:22.Ouseph draws level. Can he moved in front for the first time in either
:25:23. > :25:49.game? Lovely disguise on that smash. The
:25:50. > :25:53.lift was so short that Ouseph really had to take a chance and guess what
:25:54. > :26:20.side to go to and he guessed wrong. Rallies like this can really change
:26:21. > :27:04.a match. He gave himself a much bigger margin
:27:05. > :27:08.of error on that favourite smash, from the backhand corner going
:27:09. > :28:20.straight. He went for the big power.
:28:21. > :28:25.slice drop. Really well played. And you can see how short it is. Around
:28:26. > :28:32.the first line, where it should be. That is very short. Very fast shots,
:28:33. > :29:01.as well. A lot more effective than many of these matches. -- smashes.
:29:02. > :29:07.We held 6000 people in the arena and throughout the first days, the team
:29:08. > :29:15.competition, we have had terrific crowds.
:29:16. > :29:21.Although this is the gold medal match, six more days of badminton to
:29:22. > :29:28.come as we start to the individual events. 9am tomorrow. The finals are
:29:29. > :30:14.on Sunday. It is a useful advantage for Rajiv
:30:15. > :31:00.Ouseph. Is this simply down to him cutting
:31:01. > :31:09.out the errors? I think so, I actually think so. He is playing
:31:10. > :31:14.with more patience. He is not taking the same chances. He made a few
:31:15. > :31:21.unforced, but not many. He is waiting patiently. On many
:31:22. > :31:27.occasions, Chong Wei Feng is making the mistake. It is about keeping,
:31:28. > :31:33.again, a tight ship, holding onto it, not being adventurous, play safe
:31:34. > :31:38.and steady. Keep it going. When the chances are there, go for the
:31:39. > :31:48.winners. It goes for both players. They can wait for the other one to
:31:49. > :32:04.make a mistake. It is a very patient game. It would have been a straight
:32:05. > :32:10.winner, had it not been helped. -- been out.
:32:11. > :32:22.If I watch Tom Wei Feng, I would change things -- Chong Wei Feng, I
:32:23. > :32:28.would change things a little bit now. Attacking the body, trying to
:32:29. > :32:33.go in and see if he can get some of these flat exchanges. When you play
:32:34. > :32:39.against somebody who is tall, they are normally not so good around the
:32:40. > :32:43.body. He would get into trouble. I think the body smash was the right
:32:44. > :32:56.thing to do, but he has two hit it on the forehand side. -- has to hit
:32:57. > :33:04.it. Rajiv Ouseph, when he got into that situation, he blocked it, to
:33:05. > :33:15.get the lift to get out of it. It is for Chong Wei think to really try to
:33:16. > :33:27.get him into it. -- Chong Wei Feng. That was a good, decisive smash.
:33:28. > :34:12.Maintaining the 3-point advantage he had at the interval.
:34:13. > :34:27.Once again, Patience pays off. This time for Chong Wei Feng. Neither has
:34:28. > :34:34.the explosive power to dominate. I am sitting here and I am desperate
:34:35. > :34:41.to find a way out of it for either one. As you rightly say, they do not
:34:42. > :34:42.have a game plan that can hurt the other, therefore they have to wait
:34:43. > :36:32.for their chances. That was good judgement by Chong Wei
:36:33. > :36:46.Feng, as he levels of the second game. -- levels off. That patience
:36:47. > :36:49.paid off. Not really going for any big shots. That is how both of them
:36:50. > :37:46.play. They wait and wait. Talk about wearing down your
:37:47. > :37:52.opponent! This is unusual today, to see rallies like this and patients
:37:53. > :37:54.like this. The one who is opening up is the one who is losing,
:37:55. > :38:01.like this. The one who is opening up are both sitting back and waiting
:38:02. > :38:04.and you get rallies like this. Speaks the man who once played a
:38:05. > :38:11.rally of over 90 shots at the all Speaks the man who once played a
:38:12. > :38:15.England. And won it and got into the Guinness book of records for it.
:38:16. > :38:19.England. And won it and got into the your opponents did not win another
:38:20. > :38:24.point in the match. -- your opponent. That was a good match for
:38:25. > :39:00.me. And all England final. Yes, again, waiting for the moment.
:39:01. > :39:14.That's likely loose shot was the moment for Rajiv Ouseph to pounce.
:39:15. > :39:22.It was good play by him. Once again, Chong Wei Feng, he will have to do
:39:23. > :39:27.something. Rajiv Ouseph is quite happy to do what is happening right
:39:28. > :39:52.now. He is winning most of them. That is another.
:39:53. > :40:11.It was called good. That was a mis-judgement. And now a four point
:40:12. > :40:55.advantage, deep in the second game. That was a good defensive shot. Just
:40:56. > :41:31.going wide. Ouseph, making it an almost
:41:32. > :41:44.impossible shot -- cord. Chong Wei Feng, at the moment, it is not
:41:45. > :41:45.enough. He has to start playing some power smashes and try to penetrate,
:41:46. > :42:38.if he can. He was appealing to the umpire, but
:42:39. > :42:44.no overall. She has to be convinced it was a clear mistake. That was on
:42:45. > :42:53.the line, to my mind. Incidentally, in major tournaments now in the
:42:54. > :43:01.badminton world circuit... We have Hawk-eye. Every player is having two
:43:02. > :43:07.attempts. If you are successful, you keep the attempt. If you are
:43:08. > :43:23.unsuccessful you have one left and eventually none left. It is getting
:43:24. > :43:30.very tight again. It looked pretty secure at 19-15. But he has changed
:43:31. > :43:36.his tactics. He was playing extremely patiently and suddenly he
:43:37. > :43:39.started attacking and wanted to see if he can finish it early and
:43:40. > :43:51.straight away he is in trouble again. He has got to be so patient.
:43:52. > :44:32.It is two game points to Rajiv Ouseph to level the match.
:44:33. > :44:51.That is wild! That was a gift. And Ouseph claims the second Game 21-19.
:44:52. > :45:00.There was no doubt that Ouseph had to continue what he did when he got
:45:01. > :45:04.away in that second game at 19-15. He played very patiently, just
:45:05. > :45:08.waiting for his chances and bought mistakes from his opponent. He has
:45:09. > :45:15.got to keep that the whole time but I fear that Chong Wei Feng has to
:45:16. > :45:20.find a way now. He cannot sit back, he has to open up and by doing that,
:45:21. > :45:31.he obviously makes himself vulnerable. This will be a very
:45:32. > :45:39.interesting third game. I am a rock -- reminded of a lyric in a song,
:45:40. > :45:43.killing me softly. Ouseph has two kill him softly, by being patient
:45:44. > :45:55.and deliberate and raining himself in. Obviously Chong Wei Feng will go
:45:56. > :46:05.more and more crazy, taking chances and then he can make mistakes.
:46:06. > :46:13.Confirmation of the scoreline. Remember, the overall position in
:46:14. > :46:17.the tie is that England lead 1-0 having won the mixed doubles in
:46:18. > :46:24.straight games, saving five game points in the second game. Chris and
:46:25. > :46:30.Gabby Adcock, but that was the England banker. They need this match
:46:31. > :46:36.as well if they are to rest this gold medal match back from Malaysia
:46:37. > :47:43.who won in Delhi four years ago and in Melbourne eight years ago.
:47:44. > :47:55.Yes, I think this is the right tactic by Rajiv Ouseph. Just playing
:47:56. > :48:01.patiently and eventually the mistakes will come from Chong Wei
:48:02. > :48:03.Feng. The Malaysian has got to find ways here, I don't think he can win
:48:04. > :48:46.this way. Good smash. It forced the loose net
:48:47. > :49:25.shop but Ouseph was a little slow getting forward. -- net shot.
:49:26. > :49:35.He had totally committed himself to the attack. Yes, he got in to close
:49:36. > :50:31.at the net here and totally exposed himself.
:50:32. > :50:53.This time Ouseph did at least get to that heavy slice drop that has been
:50:54. > :51:07.effective for the Malaysian. Using his height, but that shot was too
:51:08. > :51:14.low. Once again, I think it is a good proof of Ouseph waiting for his
:51:15. > :51:19.opportunities, playing very safe and steady rallies, not opening up too
:51:20. > :51:26.soon. Chong Wei Feng will come to him.
:51:27. > :51:35.And in going for the big shots, he will start missing a few. Anxious
:51:36. > :51:45.faces amongst the Malaysian fans and there are plenty of them in the
:51:46. > :51:50.arena. Yes, in Kuala Lumpur he is always leading the pack, so to
:51:51. > :51:57.speak, always cheering for the Malaysian 's. Sometimes I think they
:51:58. > :52:08.bring him around the world! Good shot.
:52:09. > :52:18.Being hypercritical, is Ouseph clearing too much to the forehand
:52:19. > :52:21.given it is a left-hander? I think Chong Wei Feng is such a fast
:52:22. > :52:28.player, whether you play him forehand or back hand, he always has
:52:29. > :52:35.good time. Obviously you have to play with proper length and that is
:52:36. > :52:56.what matters the most. Now he is losing it.
:52:57. > :54:12.It is the English team bench with the other coaches there and the
:54:13. > :54:19.reserve players. Once again, interesting to see that the rally is
:54:20. > :54:26.not one by the big power smash but by the delicate top shop, the slice
:54:27. > :54:42.or the drop shots. That is the way the rallies are finished, not by the
:54:43. > :54:54.big power smashes. My word. That was over, that was over. It almost stuck
:54:55. > :55:01.at the top of the net! There is no expression, absolutely no expression
:55:02. > :55:39.on the face of Rajiv Ouseph when he is playing a shot like that.
:55:40. > :55:48.As previously mentioned, very well played by Ouseph, sitting back and
:55:49. > :56:28.waiting, good defence. Chong Wei Feng will come to him.
:56:29. > :56:36.It is going to go long. Incidentally, if you are thinking
:56:37. > :56:42.when Chong Wei Feng is going up for the smash and the Malaysian
:56:43. > :56:47.supporters are shouting, don't think that is wrong, that is normal in
:56:48. > :56:53.Asia. There is no such thing as staying quiet in the rallies, it is
:56:54. > :56:57.bedlam! It is great fun. It is the best, it is wonderful to play out
:56:58. > :57:25.there and it does not put the players off at all.
:57:26. > :57:36.Yes! And now he is saying, come on! That is good, nice to see an
:57:37. > :58:29.expression on his face here. interval, this is a big chance to
:58:30. > :58:36.take, taking into account what we have seen the last 15 minutes, but
:58:37. > :58:43.it was well played by Ouseph. He loves the reaction. P wants to win
:58:44. > :58:57.this match and bring England to a 2-0 lead -- he wants.
:58:58. > :59:01.I think it is the same person, I am sure they bring him around the
:59:02. > :00:09.world! I do not know whether there is a
:00:10. > :00:14.change of tactics or whether Rajiv Ouseph feels under pressure to play
:00:15. > :00:24.the bass line. With the drift, it is marginal, but it can play a role. --
:00:25. > :00:33.baseline. It could be the reason he is changing something now. His lead
:00:34. > :00:41.at the mid-game interval is down to one. The drift, the flow of air in
:00:42. > :00:48.the hall, it is one. The drift, the flow of air in
:00:49. > :00:55.blowing from behind Rajiv Ouseph. The interval undoubtedly affected
:00:56. > :00:58.Rajiv Ouseph in the first game and it has here because he has lost four
:00:59. > :02:11.straight points on the resumption. Ouseph, he goes back to patients. He
:02:12. > :02:17.knows that is the way to do it, even when playing with drift. The drift
:02:18. > :02:35.is marginal. An inch or two. Surely he can control it. Chong Wei Feng
:02:36. > :02:49.And, having to dig deep now. Past the hour mark for the match. Having
:02:50. > :02:55.seen him grind out the last points and then making an error, you think
:02:56. > :03:31.why? I am asking the same question. I cannot really tell you.
:03:32. > :03:41.A crosscourt clear would have been good, played to the backhand of
:03:42. > :03:53.Chong Wei Feng. Instead, he chose the option of the smash. Again, the
:03:54. > :03:59.smashes easily blocked back. Chong Wei Feng, four points behind at the
:04:00. > :04:01.interval, he has won seven of the last eight points and this could be
:04:02. > :04:33.a decisive move for the Malaysian. I felt that if Rajiv Ouseph had it
:04:34. > :04:41.in his hands, he would know what to do. But I think he has lost the plot
:04:42. > :05:52.a little bit here. That was a little bit of respite.
:05:53. > :06:04.Brilliant play by Chong Wei Feng. The via shot he played was really
:06:05. > :06:07.good. The way he is holding it and then choosing the drop shot, it was
:06:08. > :07:01.very nicely done. That one was beautiful.
:07:02. > :07:13.That was well played. Suddenly, the matches having a better effect. --
:07:14. > :07:15.the smash. He is standing in the corner. Not really getting out of
:07:16. > :07:55.the corner. That has been his most effective
:07:56. > :08:09.shot. The slice smash. Finding a lovely angle.
:08:10. > :08:15.Whose heart will be the stronger? 17-16, final game. That is what it
:08:16. > :08:29.comes down to now. He found the line. Rajiv Ouseph does
:08:30. > :09:05.not agree. That is the problem. He was
:09:06. > :09:17.overcommitted and could not recover. This could be the decisive moment.
:09:18. > :09:38.Good play by Chong Wei Feng, standing his ground.
:09:39. > :10:31.He went for the spectacular. I think he is a little bit angry on himself.
:10:32. > :10:38.That was a very, very good shot. It was an extraordinary shot in a
:10:39. > :11:12.situation like this. He missed it. Well, well, well.
:11:13. > :11:38.Three match points have been saved. Just one remains. Great defence.
:11:39. > :12:04.That was too short. Chong Wei Feng has ended this 70 minute match.
:12:05. > :12:20.Two of the leading seeds in the men's singles in the individual
:12:21. > :12:30.competition have reduced an epic. I felt that when Rajiv Ouseph went to
:12:31. > :12:34.the mid-game interval four up, urging the crowd on, it was almost
:12:35. > :12:40.as if he got involved in the wonderful atmosphere and it took him
:12:41. > :12:46.away from the patient role. Either that, or he did not believe he could
:12:47. > :12:51.do it that way. I think he was doubting it. Whether he dared to do
:12:52. > :12:58.it, I do not know. That is when I said he had lost the plot. He had a
:12:59. > :13:04.tactic that worked. Did he dared to play at? He came back, he had some
:13:05. > :13:08.good smashes in the third game. That was really good. He had a plan, and
:13:09. > :13:14.I think he lost it somewhere along the way.
:13:15. > :13:23.The contest finely poised. It is the best of five overall and could go
:13:24. > :13:30.down to the wire. Welcome back to Pacific Quay. The coverage will
:13:31. > :13:34.continue. It is like a funfair here. A lot of children having great fun.
:13:35. > :13:46.They are on school holidays. There is so much for them to do. HMS
:13:47. > :13:52.Bangor is here. On The kids are having a look at what is on offer.
:13:53. > :13:55.They are having a great time. They talk about legacy at these
:13:56. > :14:02.tournaments and what it means in terms of leaving an impression for
:14:03. > :14:06.future generations, perhaps to take up sport, perhaps stars of the
:14:07. > :14:13.future in the Olympics. BBC learning have put on a marquee here. We have
:14:14. > :14:18.all had a go at one of these, testing reflexive and reactions, the
:14:19. > :14:26.bubbly used by some of the athletes in their preparations. -- probably
:14:27. > :14:30.used. There is a virtual rowing contest going on here, they are
:14:31. > :14:37.giving it all they have got! Come on, guys! We can see what they are
:14:38. > :14:43.achieving on the screen and all of the parents are getting involved and
:14:44. > :14:49.not being too competitive! Away from the sport, there is a chance for the

:14:51. > :14:55.kids to decrypt some codes which have been Holmes. It is all very
:14:56. > :15:00.exciting for the kids. If you have a chance to come along, this is the
:15:01. > :15:02.place to be. We will take a break on the action and we will see you
:15:03. > :15:09.shortly after a news update. Yeah, I am looking for
:15:10. > :15:11.a Prince Charming. I don't think I'm ugly, but I don't
:15:12. > :15:15.think I'm, like, really pretty. I say, "You've got something
:15:16. > :15:21.on your bum." "Really?" And I say, Back to Glasgow
:15:22. > :15:45.after a quick update on Three. Some described it like a
:15:46. > :15:47."zombie apocalypse". Severe weather's hit parts

:16:19. > :16:26.was amazing to win a bronze medal She's Scotland's youngest
:16:27. > :16:29.ever competitor. More later,
:16:30. > :17:15.right now let's get back to Maneesh Welcome back to our coverage of
:17:16. > :17:18.Glasgow 2014. We will be back to the badminton shortly for the rest of
:17:19. > :17:23.the event we were showing you but first news from the weightlifting.
:17:24. > :17:27.That was the scene of the gold for Zoe Smith a couple of days ago. This
:17:28. > :17:33.time we were hoping for similar success for a 15-year-old girl from
:17:34. > :17:38.Yorkshire who is in the 68th kilogram category, she goes by the
:17:39. > :17:43.name of Rebekah Tiler. She is not missing school, it is the summer
:17:44. > :17:48.holidays now but could she come away from these games with a medal? After
:17:49. > :17:54.the first discipline she was in fourth place, five kilograms outside
:17:55. > :17:59.her bronze medal spot. In the clean and jerk, she would likely have to
:18:00. > :18:05.lift over 120 kilograms to get a medal. She made a good start,
:18:06. > :18:09.clearing 118 kilograms but she would need more and we can pick it up now
:18:10. > :18:15.with her attempting an astonishing 123 kilograms.
:18:16. > :18:24.COMMENTATOR: Rebekah Tiler, this would take her to 214 and put her on
:18:25. > :18:33.to the podium. That is a great clean. The bar just went in front of
:18:34. > :18:38.her. Her hips went behind and she could not hold it. She was in a rush
:18:39. > :18:44.and that is understandable, the clean was so easy, she threw that
:18:45. > :18:53.bar but when it is in front, you cannot hold on. She just has too
:18:54. > :18:57.correct it. The English camp were gutted last night with Jack Oliver
:18:58. > :19:14.who came so close to a bronze medal. You can see that she is ready to
:19:15. > :19:20.come out here and do this. This is an amazing situation to find
:19:21. > :19:27.yourself in, in your home nations, your hometown audience. But also,
:19:28. > :19:32.the youngest Brit ever to win a national title, youth European
:19:33. > :19:39.champion, aged 15, remarkable. It is very remarkable. She has a minute
:19:40. > :19:44.and a half, time is not an issue. She does not want to spend much time
:19:45. > :19:52.on the platform. She is going to have to spend a couple more seconds
:19:53. > :19:58.in between the clean and the jerk. She is just trying to make sure
:19:59. > :20:02.in between the clean and the jerk. this. If you go too quickly, the bar
:20:03. > :20:06.cannot come to a standstill and you need that to get your balance in a
:20:07. > :20:10.solid position. need that to get your balance in a
:20:11. > :20:30.This for the bronze... Bring it on! She couldn't hold it. And in the
:20:31. > :20:35.blink of an eye, it disappears. I think she has also hurt her back
:20:36. > :20:39.unfortunately. She held on as long as possible and I think it hurt her
:20:40. > :20:47.physically. She took her time and did what she had to do. There is so
:20:48. > :20:52.much swing on the bar, you can see on her shoulders... She could not
:20:53. > :21:05.control it, that was the problem. Rebekah had to settle for fourth
:21:06. > :21:09.place in the end but it was a remarkable effort and I am sure we
:21:10. > :21:15.will be hearing her name in the future. Back to the badminton and it
:21:16. > :21:19.is all to play for in the final of the mixed team event. Next it is the
:21:20. > :21:25.men's doubles between England and Malaysia. The ultimate winners go on
:21:26. > :21:31.to win gold. Back to our commentators.
:21:32. > :21:42.COMMENTATOR: The semifinal against India, they looked very nervous.
:21:43. > :22:42.Ladies and gentlemen, on my right, England. And on my left, Malaysia.
:22:43. > :22:56.Malaysian pair, is their three-time gold medal winner at the last, love
:22:57. > :23:00.games left the National Federation, it has all changed.
:23:01. > :23:05.games left the National Federation, there is any injury problems, I
:23:06. > :23:08.think this pair, they are trying to find a replacement for the pair that
:23:09. > :23:26.won the gold medal last time. And I am interested by this
:23:27. > :23:33.Malaysian pair. I think that Goh has the most incredible smash, power but
:23:34. > :23:39.more importantly angle and placement from the back of the court. Tan, the
:23:40. > :23:43.way he reads the game up front is quite exceptional. They have all the
:23:44. > :24:14.trappings to be a world-class pair. The reason I was saying, now that
:24:15. > :24:20.they don't have the pressure and they are not expected to win this,
:24:21. > :24:25.Adcock and Ellis, as you rightly said, they looked a little nervous
:24:26. > :24:31.yesterday against India. Because of that, they did not play the level of
:24:32. > :24:38.badminton that I know that they can play. Certainly they will have two
:24:39. > :24:44.lift their standard from yesterday but they are more than capable of
:24:45. > :24:47.doing that. At the moment it is a hesitant start from them. A few
:24:48. > :25:33.errors. It is a dangerous tactic to lift to
:25:34. > :25:40.Goh V Shem at the back of the court, as we said earlier, he has a lethal
:25:41. > :26:08.smash. That serve was halfway up the net.
:26:09. > :26:12.They have not been able to mount any sustained attacks so far, Adcock and
:26:13. > :27:05.Ellis. As soon as Goh V Shem gets the
:27:06. > :27:09.opportunity to smash, he does seem to make a big difference in the
:27:10. > :27:16.rally. That was almost a nasty slip from Goh V Shem. I do think that the
:27:17. > :27:21.English pair in that rally were trying to play too quickly. It is an
:27:22. > :27:26.instinctive thing to do when you are a little bit nervous. You just want
:27:27. > :27:32.to hit the shuttle and get involved, you so want to do well but
:27:33. > :27:36.actually you have to have a calm head and take the pace out of the
:27:37. > :27:55.shuttle. The Malaysian pair will thrive off the fast play.
:27:56. > :28:27.Amazing that the Malaysian 's did not realise that.
:28:28. > :28:38.That is the sort of shot that really I would like to see the English
:28:39. > :28:39.doing. The strings, otherwise the tension of the remaining strings
:28:40. > :29:29.will bust the frame of the racket. dominated the first half. That was a
:29:30. > :29:48.beautiful crosscourt drive into the space.
:29:49. > :29:57.The English coach wants them to be more alert at the front of the
:29:58. > :30:01.court. I think they have to be more positive from the onset of the
:30:02. > :30:02.rally. They are not putting enough pressure on their opponents from the
:30:03. > :30:21.return of serve. That slowed the pace. The advice of
:30:22. > :30:29.the coach. The coach had noticed what I had noticed - trying to play
:30:30. > :30:52.too quickly. Softer shots and your opponents have nothing to feed off.
:30:53. > :31:04.That was excellent defence from Adcock.
:31:05. > :31:17.That was lucky. He created his own luck.
:31:18. > :31:18.That was lucky. He created his own from the Malaysians. In the right
:31:19. > :31:27.place at the right time. his good fortune. -- hand in
:31:28. > :31:49.apology. I think the strings have gone again.
:31:50. > :31:56.Hence the drop shot. And again. He is running off to change racquet!
:31:57. > :32:17.Perfectly legitimate to do that. It happens a lot.
:32:18. > :32:23.The wife had a good laugh about that, Gabby Adcock. His doubles
:32:24. > :32:46.partner and partner in life. They have got to learn. That is very
:32:47. > :33:15.dangerous. Perfect placement. That was brilliantly taken by Andy
:33:16. > :33:34.Ellis. My goodness me. How will that he
:33:35. > :33:48.up, ready, just brushing it off the top of the tape.
:33:49. > :33:55.To me, this is the difference between the two pairs. Look at the
:33:56. > :34:02.pressure the Malaysians put on the return of serve. Only a couple of
:34:03. > :34:16.shots from the Malaysians to win the rally.
:34:17. > :34:24.Is a factor that the Malaysians are serving that little bit better? I do
:34:25. > :34:28.not think the English players are doing the right thing on the return
:34:29. > :34:33.of serve. Maybe not committed enough coming forward, not putting enough
:34:34. > :34:44.pressure on and varying the return enough. My goodness me. It was
:34:45. > :34:48.called wired and the Malaysians do not agree. There is no challenge
:34:49. > :35:03.system here. That certainly looked good. It was
:35:04. > :35:10.almost as if the Malaysian players were asking for a challenge. We saw
:35:11. > :35:18.that from one of the singles players earlier in the week from Malaysia.
:35:19. > :35:32.It is an unbelievable smash. Goh V Shem leaping from the baseline
:35:33. > :35:36.position. The shuttle, hit down the backhand side and yet they play with
:35:37. > :36:01.the normal overhead action. That is a better return of serve
:36:02. > :36:31.from Andy Ellis. Once more, the lead is cut to two points.
:36:32. > :37:00.Yes. Great to see him here. A little committed to the backhand defence.
:37:01. > :37:09.The first one, could not get it away from the net player. That was a
:37:10. > :37:19.great reaction to the Flex server. -- flick.
:37:20. > :38:05.It was an even better return. It was a great smash from Chris Adcock.
:38:06. > :38:34.Nice to see the rotational play. Chris Adcock moves out and Andy
:38:35. > :38:45.Ellis immediately comes forward. That is the first time they have
:38:46. > :39:54.been level since 0-0. That was good. Not only anticipating
:39:55. > :40:00.well, Tan Wee Kiong, but this backhand kill, hardly any backswing
:40:01. > :40:06.of the racket. And yet it generates quite a bit of pace. Immensely
:40:07. > :40:18.powerful wrists, badminton players have.
:40:19. > :41:04.It was called out. Chris Adcock appealed and looked up to the giant
:41:05. > :41:06.screen, to try to see a replay. My initial reaction was I had sympathy
:41:07. > :41:41.for the English pair. They are taking a controversial
:41:42. > :42:07.replays of the screen but that was clearly in.
:42:08. > :42:22.That was well worked. That is great rotational play by Adcock and Ellis.
:42:23. > :42:31.The atmosphere is different from badminton in the church hall. Still
:42:32. > :43:02.game point. One more. Such another brilliant game. The
:43:03. > :43:17.early lead they took was to prove decisive. The English pair so nearly
:43:18. > :43:26.clawed it back. 21-19. Do not have it at half-mast! An extraordinary
:43:27. > :43:27.shot in the middle of this rally, between the legs. The defensive
:43:28. > :43:55.shot. There we go. opponents are smashing from close to
:43:56. > :44:39.the net. behind yesterday, Adcock and Ellis,
:44:40. > :44:48.but they are facing tougher opponents today. But the way they
:44:49. > :44:56.played in that opening game, the fact that it was so close proves
:44:57. > :44:57.they have the capability. I think this men's doubles is far from
:44:58. > :45:10.over. They were using the wrong tactics,
:45:11. > :45:18.but if they could slow the game down a little and get the Malaysians out
:45:19. > :45:24.of favoured formation with Goh V Shem at the back, I am not
:45:25. > :45:27.of favoured formation with Goh V that is a weak option but it
:45:28. > :46:18.deviates from their favoured formation.
:46:19. > :46:34.The serve and looking for the third shot. That is what the English pair
:46:35. > :46:50.have to do they want to extend this men's doubles.
:46:51. > :46:58.Unbelievable! At its best, men's doubles is such a wonderful
:46:59. > :47:20.spectacle. It is very very clever from Tan Wee
:47:21. > :47:30.Kiong. He varies the pace so nicely from the front of the court.
:47:31. > :47:37.Trying to be more aggressive on the service return but just making one
:47:38. > :47:42.or two errors. When I was saying in the first game that I would like to
:47:43. > :47:48.see them putting more pressure on their opponents, it is not
:47:49. > :47:57.necessarily that shot. At the moment it is passive. Have we seen a push
:47:58. > :48:18.into the back corner yet? No. We have seen a lot of net shots.
:48:19. > :48:24.The net shot was loose, it just played into the hands of Tan Wee
:48:25. > :48:28.Kiong. You cannot block crosscourt from
:48:29. > :48:46.there and make it as loose as that. Better return that time which was
:48:47. > :49:23.pushed into the net cord area. It is very noticeable to me that
:49:24. > :49:28.when the English are serving, the rallies, too often are too short
:49:29. > :49:48.because the Malaysians are putting so much pressure on.
:49:49. > :50:03.That is fantastic from Goh V Shem. Once again, watch the backhand.
:50:04. > :50:11.Hardly any back swing, hardly any follow-through, he will release the
:50:12. > :50:15.grip or loosen the grip on the racket and tighten it as he is about
:50:16. > :50:51.to hit it and that, with the timing of the shot, creates the power.
:50:52. > :50:56.The English pair don't like the call! The Malaysians fans are
:50:57. > :51:17.celebrating. Well, desperately close. Andy Ellis
:51:18. > :51:26.saying that is two of them. And he has a considerable point.
:51:27. > :51:36.That one is wide. But did you notice the serve at the beginning? It was a
:51:37. > :51:42.clever variation from the Malaysians, serving out wide and
:51:43. > :51:47.immediately looked for the straight push. I would like to see more
:51:48. > :51:57.variation from the English pair now on the serve. Well...
:51:58. > :52:10.A wry smile from the Malaysians, I was not convinced by that either.
:52:11. > :52:15.That was in too, I think. I make that 2-2 on line calls them! --
:52:16. > :52:34.then. You see, I don't think the English
:52:35. > :52:41.should be afraid when Goh V Shem is at the net to play it back there. A
:52:42. > :52:48.nice little soft lock. He is not as comfortable in the front court area
:52:49. > :52:58.as his partner Tan Wee Kiong. That was a shocking serve. So loose.
:52:59. > :53:00.Which means that the Malaysians have a 3-point advantage as we reach the
:53:01. > :53:29.interval. I'm afraid I was struggling to
:53:30. > :53:34.what the coach was saying. Look at how loose that serve was. It got
:53:35. > :53:40.what it deserved. But from his gestures, I think he was saying
:53:41. > :53:47.something about a little hold and click the into the back corners. I
:53:48. > :53:50.could be way off, I am just trying to interpret his hand gestures as to
:53:51. > :53:55.what he might have been trying to advise his men.
:53:56. > :54:03.Which is one of the things I suggested, there has been nothing
:54:04. > :54:08.played to be deep corners, flat, and attacking shot. That is a much
:54:09. > :54:26.better return of serve. The whole tone of a rally is
:54:27. > :54:28.determined by the serve, the return and the third shot. It is absolutely
:54:29. > :54:56.vital. What a glorious block from Tan Wee
:54:57. > :55:02.Kiong off the smash. The block, and he immediately moved forward. And
:55:03. > :55:06.just takes the shuttle off the top of the net. That is exactly what the
:55:07. > :55:31.English pair need to do. He certainly did extremely well on
:55:32. > :55:51.variation. He certainly did extremely well on
:55:52. > :55:55.that first defensive shot, swayed his body out of the way to give
:55:56. > :56:03.himself the freedom to play the shot.
:56:04. > :56:18.The softer shot, the change of pace. That is lovely play. And it
:56:19. > :56:23.draws Adcock and Ellis level at 12-12. Service fault called, above
:56:24. > :56:47.the waist. We should just explain that the
:56:48. > :56:53.waste in Badminton is defined as below the lowest rib.
:56:54. > :57:14.Sustained attack again, the rotation of the smashes.
:57:15. > :57:25.Well, Adcock says... Saying that Tan Wee Kiong was moving before the
:57:26. > :58:01.shuttle was struck. No. Fabulous. My goodness me. Tan Wee
:58:02. > :58:08.Kiong. Well, all throughout this competition in my opinion he has
:58:09. > :58:12.been outstanding. Maybe I should just explain, on the return of
:58:13. > :58:18.serve, as long as your feet don't move... What he did that was sing on
:58:19. > :58:23.his knees and crouched down a bit lower, that is permissible, you are
:58:24. > :58:42.just not allowed to move your feet before the shuttle has been struck.
:58:43. > :59:01.From 12-12, they have won four points.
:59:02. > :59:19.Going for the angle. Almost a half smash. Sacrificing powerful
:59:20. > :59:25.placement. -- power for placement. The second one down the tramline.
:59:26. > :00:01.With the half power, landing shorter.
:00:02. > :00:11.He is not exactly a slouch when it comes to smashing, Tan Wee Kiong. I
:00:12. > :00:15.am not convinced by the lift. It was too flat, not deep enough. Look at
:00:16. > :01:07.where the feet of Tan Wee Kiong world. -- were.
:01:08. > :01:23.Oh, brilliant. The interception again from Tan Wee Kiong.
:01:24. > :01:27.Look at how he moves even before the shot has been played. He is
:01:28. > :02:24.anticipating. It has landed in. There is no
:02:25. > :02:34.dispute about that. An extraordinary rally. Brilliant defence from both
:02:35. > :02:41.sides. Maybe there was a hint of exhaustion in the decision to let
:02:42. > :02:46.the final shot drop. Frustration, I think, that they had played so well
:02:47. > :02:52.throughout the rally but could not find the winner. As the rally was in
:02:53. > :02:57.progress... Crikey, it was in by a country mile in badminton terms. I
:02:58. > :03:03.could not help but think if the English could win that point, it
:03:04. > :03:07.would be a game changer. That is wide. Five match points for the
:03:08. > :04:28.Malaysians. He ran off to get a new racket, but
:04:29. > :04:37.it was not required. Another brilliant smash by Goh V Shem wraps
:04:38. > :04:47.it up. 42 minutes. Malaysia are in front, 2-1 with two left to play.
:04:48. > :04:53.The Malaysians are now very much firm favourites to win the gold
:04:54. > :04:54.medal in the team competition for the third straight Commonwealth
:04:55. > :05:06.Games. Advantage very much Malaysia in that
:05:07. > :05:21.contest. We are at the Pacific Quay. Later tonight, Qais Ashfaq from
:05:22. > :05:37.England's world take on the Lesotho boxer. This is Qais Ashfaq's story.
:05:38. > :05:42.I am from Leeds. My roots are in Pakistan. Both of my parents were
:05:43. > :05:47.born there. I am proud to represent England in the boxing ring. This is
:05:48. > :05:53.my Commonwealth connection. I must've been eight years, nine years
:05:54. > :05:58.old, my cousin used to box. My uncle promised to take me to the gym and I
:05:59. > :06:04.loved every minute of it. I would not say I was serious about it until
:06:05. > :06:13.12, 13. Especially after my first national title. I thought I could do
:06:14. > :06:20.something. Come on in. I had better take my shoes off. My mum will kill
:06:21. > :06:24.me if I don't! This is my mum. This is my brother. One of my brothers. I
:06:25. > :06:36.have two brothers and two sisters. This is my dad. Hello. My parents
:06:37. > :06:42.are from Pakistan and that is where my background is. Even though I was
:06:43. > :06:45.born here, being from a different background and being able to
:06:46. > :06:56.represent the country is an honour. What is for dinner? Chicken. I am
:06:57. > :07:09.looking forward to that. It sounds tasty. And salad. He was born in
:07:10. > :07:18.1993. It was a happy time. He was born in Leeds General infirmary. He
:07:19. > :07:30.was premature. He was only three lb five ounces. The nurse used to come
:07:31. > :07:46.home. In 30 days he became a big boy. How long ago was this? 30 years
:07:47. > :07:53.ago. 1983. Olden times. He would have to keep the white suit clean!
:07:54. > :07:59.Why did you come from Pakistan? Our family was here. Your mother's and
:08:00. > :08:11.my family. They pushed us to come over. Initially, we came over for a
:08:12. > :08:17.visit. We then decided to stay. It was the general atmosphere of this
:08:18. > :08:22.country, plus I had better job prospects. The finance comes into
:08:23. > :08:28.it. When I came here I really liked it. It took me a few months, but I
:08:29. > :08:33.was OK. If you go out in England, nobody asks what you are doing. In
:08:34. > :08:39.Pakistan, if you go out, they ask questions, why are you going? That
:08:40. > :08:54.is what I loved. We came in February 1985. Since then, we have made our
:08:55. > :08:58.home here. You heard me. He is very much in touch with the Pakistani
:08:59. > :09:06.culture. He has not had the chance to go recently. I boxed in the
:09:07. > :09:13.Commonwealth youth games in 2011, I think it was. That is the gold medal
:09:14. > :09:18.I won there, with the mascot. We never thought of him representing
:09:19. > :09:25.Pakistan, because he was born and bred here. I do not think he could
:09:26. > :09:37.go and work with the Pakistani teams, coaches and things. That
:09:38. > :09:41.never crossed our minds. Pakistani culture has influenced my life. My
:09:42. > :09:49.parents have drilled it into me - go to Moscow, do my daily prayers.
:09:50. > :10:00.There is always influence around me -- mosque. I still eat Asian food. I
:10:01. > :10:08.love it to bits. My mum cooks it. I keep those things in my life. I look
:10:09. > :10:10.forward to hopefully winning B medal in the Commonwealth Games and taking
:10:11. > :10:20.it to Pakistan and showing the family. We are really proud of him
:10:21. > :10:23.to be fighting for England. If you have developed an interest to take
:10:24. > :10:30.up any sport you have seen at the Commonwealth Games, visit the get

:10:35. > :10:42.the nearest club and venue. Who knows, we might look at a star of
:10:43. > :10:47.the future on this lot. We can get back to the main focus is on BBC
:10:48. > :10:52.Three this afternoon, the mixed team final, as far as England are
:10:53. > :10:57.concerned, in badminton. They are taking on Malaysia. They are 2-1
:10:58. > :11:11.down and it is now time for the women's singles contest.
:11:12. > :11:30.Tee Against Sarah Walker of England. England's hopes rest on the
:11:31. > :11:42.shoulders of Sarah Walker. Tee Jing Yi, she is 23 years of age. She has
:11:43. > :11:48.had mixed fortunes. Yesterday, against Singapore in the semifinal,
:11:49. > :11:55.she was beaten. Sarah Walker, yesterday, did not get to play. She
:11:56. > :12:01.was scheduled as the fourth match and, of course, England had already
:12:02. > :12:08.beaten India after the first three. Sarah Walker, 24, born in Basildon
:12:09. > :12:19.in Essex, but now living in Milton Keynes.
:12:20. > :12:29.Confirmation that it is a must win situation as far as the tie is
:12:30. > :12:37.concerned, because Sarah Walker, and England, 2-1 down or stop Malaysia
:12:38. > :12:54.only need one more match to retain the mixed team championship. Mike
:12:55. > :12:59.Walker, from Canada, the umpire. The service judges from India. -- judge
:13:00. > :13:12.is from. As the players get ready, this is
:13:13. > :13:17.probably the biggest match that Sarah Walker has ever had to play in
:13:18. > :13:25.her life. Not as experienced in international terms as most of her
:13:26. > :13:47.team-mates. There is a huge pressure on Sarah Walker.
:13:48. > :13:51.Ladies and gentlemen, on my right, England, represented by Sarah
:13:52. > :14:06.Walker. And on my left, Malaysia,
:14:07. > :14:17.represented by teaching ye. -- Tee Jing Yi. England to serve. Play.
:14:18. > :14:32.So the women's singles gets underway. Tee Jing Yi broke Scottish
:14:33. > :14:45.hearts in the quarterfinals when she beat Kirsty Gilmour. She lost in her
:14:46. > :14:50.semifinal but I don't expect that defeat to affect her today, she will
:14:51. > :14:57.have recovered from that. I think so, I think she will play a solid
:14:58. > :15:04.match here. In terms of style, she stands a very good chance here, it
:15:05. > :15:07.will suit her very well. Despite the fact that she lost yesterday, I
:15:08. > :15:16.don't think it will make any difference.
:15:17. > :15:24.And it is always a point of discussion in badminton, if a player
:15:25. > :15:26.is selected to play in the team as Sarah Walker was yesterday but
:15:27. > :15:28.didn't actually get to Sarah Walker was yesterday but
:15:29. > :15:33.match because England had already won, the debate is whether that is a
:15:34. > :15:36.match because England had already good thing or a bad thing. She has
:15:37. > :15:41.had a day 's rest but Aberdeen players are fit enough to play at
:15:42. > :15:48.least one match day -- badminton players. It may have relaxed her a
:15:49. > :15:56.bit for today's match. I never know if it is a good thing to have a day
:15:57. > :16:01.off or not. I agree, you never know. It depends on what happens now. If
:16:02. > :16:04.it is going to be a long, gruelling match, of course it would have been
:16:05. > :16:10.better to have not played yesterday but if it is fast and furious and
:16:11. > :16:15.she cannot follow, maybe it would have been good to blame yesterday so
:16:16. > :17:05.it goes both ways. -- to play yesterday.
:17:06. > :17:17.That is good fighting and well played. That back and got her out of
:17:18. > :17:35.trouble twice. -- that backhand. That was the second one.
:17:36. > :17:42.She took that very late. David Lindley on the left, one of the
:17:43. > :18:24.English coaches. I think Sarah Walker is doing the
:18:25. > :18:28.right thing. She is trying to both follow as well as she can and even
:18:29. > :18:36.take some initiative and go for smashes and trying to play winners.
:18:37. > :18:42.take some initiative and go for Tee Jing Yi has got a natural higher
:18:43. > :18:49.pace and therefore she is very often in command in the rallies.
:18:50. > :18:56.There we see Sarah Walker trying to get as much back as possible but she
:18:57. > :19:40.will be under a lot of pressure. It is just long. Nice idea. Yes, it
:19:41. > :19:46.was well played by Tee Jing Yi. That one there was a bit of a beauty.
:19:47. > :20:39.Some nice skill but clearly over the back line.
:20:40. > :20:52.That is terrific. She has lovely movement around the court, Tee Jing
:20:53. > :20:58.Yi. She has, that is why I says he has a natural higher pace. It will
:20:59. > :21:03.put Sarah Walker under a lot of pressure, just the mere fact that
:21:04. > :21:14.she is moving faster, playing faster shots, this natural faster pace.
:21:15. > :21:35.That has gone long and it is a 6-point advantage at the mid-game
:21:36. > :22:02.interval for the Malaysian Tee Jing Yi.
:22:03. > :22:12.Difficult to hear what the coach was saying. What would you have been
:22:13. > :22:18.saying? I would be very happy, I must say. I would stick to my guns
:22:19. > :22:26.here, don't do anything unnecessary. Keep a tight game, keep
:22:27. > :22:30.it going. As you say, she has got that natural pace which is
:22:31. > :22:33.definitely to her advantage. Let's see what Sarah Walker is coming up
:22:34. > :23:03.with, that would be my advice. She didn't really get behind that
:23:04. > :23:09.shot, that is why she made the error.
:23:10. > :23:20.That's nice. That is what you were suggesting, going for her shots. She
:23:21. > :23:26.has got to and especially to that forehand side. There is some open
:23:27. > :23:29.space there, trying to go for slices and smashes and half smashes down
:23:30. > :23:54.that side. Two-time national champion, Sarah
:23:55. > :24:19.Walker. She is very happy to have returned
:24:20. > :24:25.to the national setup having resigned in November last year. That
:24:26. > :24:29.is a lovely smash from Walker. Whatever happens, I think it was a
:24:30. > :24:37.low serve from Tee Jing Yi but so far, so good for Sarah Walker, good
:24:38. > :24:45.smashing down the line again. You said that Tee Jing Yi must be happy
:24:46. > :24:50.to be back in the national setup, she has been a really good player
:24:51. > :24:55.for the Malaysian side. Without her in the team, I think they would have
:24:56. > :25:05.been in dire straits. Yes. I think it was a very important win for
:25:06. > :25:13.Malaysia against Scotland. Scotland had won the first of the court of
:25:14. > :25:22.final matches, the Mixed Doubles -- quarterfinals.
:25:23. > :25:30.That is good play by Sarah Walker, she stayed in and played a good net
:25:31. > :25:57.shot and was able to kill it at the net which was a very good move.
:25:58. > :26:04.This is a good fight back by Sarah Walker. Suddenly some security is
:26:05. > :26:48.setting in. Wonderful smash down the line from
:26:49. > :26:53.that backhand side. The options that Tee Jing Yi has got from that
:26:54. > :26:59.backhand side, I would recommend that Sarah Walker is playing a
:27:00. > :27:01.little bit more to the forehand side because she has a lot of options on
:27:02. > :27:42.the backhand side. Keep it to that forehand side. Tee
:27:43. > :27:43.Jing Yi's options on the forehand side are slightly limited compared
:27:44. > :28:00.to the backhand. Two points from this opening game
:28:01. > :28:11.now, Two points from this opening game
:28:12. > :28:16.Malaysia. Good Two points from this opening game
:28:17. > :28:28.Sarah Walker, taking it very early. That one has landed in, that was
:28:29. > :29:10.nice play. You can visibly see
:29:11. > :29:15.growing. Very good rally. I like the attack and the pace she put into
:29:16. > :29:16.that. Not playing slow, but really punching, adding pressure in this
:29:17. > :29:35.rally. That was a good drive defence from
:29:36. > :29:53.Tee Jing Yi. Beginning to look That was a good drive defence from
:29:54. > :29:59.That could defence earns Tee Jing Yi four game point opportunities.
:30:00. > :30:13.Only needed the one. A little hop and skip after the rally. A most
:30:14. > :30:17.definite indication she is delighted with game number one. 21-16. In 16
:30:18. > :30:55.minutes of play. The little follow-through of that
:30:56. > :30:59.downward shot from Tee Jing Yi from the back of the court. Just clipping
:31:00. > :31:23.over the top of the shuttle. Malaysia just one gave away -- game
:31:24. > :31:33.away from retaining their team title. I think it becomes clear why
:31:34. > :31:39.the Men's Singles was so important. It was so important for England to
:31:40. > :31:49.win it and they lost it in a close match. The women's singles here
:31:50. > :31:52.having a very good chance of going the Malaysian wave. The Men's
:31:53. > :32:02.Doubles going the Malaysian way. 21-16, the opening game. That was
:32:03. > :32:27.nicely done. Talking about Punch clears in the
:32:28. > :32:36.opening game. Talking about them from Sarah Walker's point of view.
:32:37. > :32:45.Well played by Tee Jing Yi. That was really well punched. Very fast and
:32:46. > :32:59.very flat. Very difficult to intercept. A good follow-up. Very
:33:00. > :33:02.good from the onset of the rally. Nice net play, setting it up. That
:33:03. > :33:42.is textbook. You have so many options when you
:33:43. > :33:49.come forward to the net. Racket arm outstretched, come from above the
:33:50. > :33:55.shuttle, you can play the next shot and block as Tee Jing Yi did on that
:33:56. > :34:02.occasion, or you can play the pressure shot. That was nice. We
:34:03. > :34:11.have talked about her movement. Also, as indicated here, very good
:34:12. > :34:16.racket skills. She is most dangerous from the backhand side. A lot of
:34:17. > :34:48.options. That's a nice shot. I couple of big gulps of air from
:34:49. > :35:03.Sarah Walker, perhaps an indication of the faster pace. That was a lucky
:35:04. > :35:04.shot. A little bit of justice. It was a very lucky shot, the backhand
:35:05. > :35:11.shot. The jump smash, attempted jump
:35:12. > :35:37.smash. That was very unfortunate. I think
:35:38. > :35:44.that is one area where Sarah Walker is possibly a little bit better than
:35:45. > :35:44.her opponent, in the flat exchanges. If she hits
:35:45. > :35:46.her opponent, in the flat exchanges. If she them well, she is solid on
:35:47. > :36:08.it. Look at that jump smash. Played with
:36:09. > :36:16.disguise. The reverse disguise. That is beautiful. The little slice in
:36:17. > :36:36.it, I do not think it takes the power away.
:36:37. > :36:47.Dear me, that was not the best of service. It could have been played
:36:48. > :36:58.on purpose, like an invitation to a flat exchange. Yes, good point.
:36:59. > :37:10.Sarah Walker has to be careful to keep the score close. Yes.
:37:11. > :37:56.She may have made the error, but you are happy with that. I am. Perhaps
:37:57. > :38:23.another invitation. She needs to get the racket up earlier.
:38:24. > :38:32.Walker is playing well. If she can keep from making too many unforced
:38:33. > :38:38.errors, she might have a chance to stick with this. The errors, that
:38:39. > :39:03.will be the key. An interesting reaction from Tee
:39:04. > :39:19.Jing Yi. The 3-point advantage at the mid-game interval.
:39:20. > :39:29.I am not sure I heard that but it would look as if Peter Jeffrey was
:39:30. > :39:33.saying to get her racket up ready for the flat exchanges. The racket
:39:34. > :39:41.is hanging low, and she has for the flat exchanges. The racket
:39:42. > :39:47.it up. Did you have concerns about the little celebrations at the
:39:48. > :39:53.mid-game interval from Malaysia? I think Tee Jing Yi knows it is one of
:39:54. > :39:54.her moments and I think she is celebrating it because she really
:39:55. > :40:06.wants to win this for Malaysia. I always get nervous when athletes
:40:07. > :40:12.celebrate before the job is done, which is why I asked. I completely
:40:13. > :40:22.know where you are going. I think she is very focused. I think Walker
:40:23. > :40:42.changed her mind. The cushion is now five points.
:40:43. > :40:50.I liked the way Sarah Walker took that early.
:40:51. > :41:01.That was clever. It was, it was actually very clever. Attempting to
:41:02. > :41:05.go for another flat exchange and this time, Walker was ready, I
:41:06. > :41:38.think. She lifted it over. Unbelievable! What a defensive shot.
:41:39. > :41:47.The whole rally was really well played. Keep playing that pressure
:41:48. > :41:54.to the forehand side is what I have said. Control it better from that
:41:55. > :41:56.side. This shot was good, but the block shot cross on the defence was
:41:57. > :42:19.so beautiful. Yes. I get a sense that Tee Jing Yi
:42:20. > :42:23.could get a little bit nervous as she gets close to the finishing line
:42:24. > :42:34.and that is where Sarah Walker could... If she is close enough.
:42:35. > :42:37.Exactly. There is a chance. One more time. That is what I am saying,
:42:38. > :42:41.Exactly. There is a chance. One more time. That is what I am if you play
:42:42. > :42:52.the forehand corner, it is easier to control. She has few options on that
:42:53. > :42:56.side will stop -- on that side. Four of the last five points going to
:42:57. > :43:15.Sarah Walker. Is that a shift in momentum?
:43:16. > :43:22.That was very positive play from Tee Jing Yi. Dictating the pace of the
:43:23. > :43:57.rally. That was a good lift. From a net
:43:58. > :44:11.shot like that, that was a very good lift. Walker is convinced... It was
:44:12. > :44:20.called in. Was it called in? It was a long way out. Sorry, I was looking
:44:21. > :44:21.at the sideline judge. I am getting too excited and getting carried
:44:22. > :44:52.away! It is interesting to see, I am
:44:53. > :44:58.watching the coach and even he is sitting on the edge of his seat. He
:44:59. > :45:05.is such a laid back person, that is good to see.
:45:06. > :45:18.It is called wide. Walker doesn't like it. There is no way that the
:45:19. > :45:23.umpire can overrule that. He can only overrule if he sees that a
:45:24. > :45:28.clear error has been made and that is the far side of the court from
:45:29. > :45:32.where he is sitting. But no question of that one.
:45:33. > :45:39.Three points away from a third consecutive mixed team gold medal
:45:40. > :45:52.for Malaysia. That is about as excited as you will
:45:53. > :46:11.ever see him! That is what I mean. Pushed wide. Time is running out for
:46:12. > :46:40.England. Malaysia. Good, positive play. Good
:46:41. > :46:47.courage from Walker. Yes, I think she has played a really good match
:46:48. > :47:00.here, she has kept it together well and stayed in the match.
:47:01. > :47:12.Well, another loose, low serve but as you say, perhaps inviting the
:47:13. > :47:15.fast player Tee Jing Yi to change her mind. In all honesty, it was a
:47:16. > :47:35.woeful attempt at a return. It was. That is very, very good play from
:47:36. > :47:43.Tee Jing Yi. And the coach saying one more. Three match points. For
:47:44. > :47:51.the gold medal in the mixed team competition.
:47:52. > :48:06.Only needed one! And Malaysia, the two-time defending champions, have
:48:07. > :48:20.retained their title. Tee Jing Yi defeating Sarah Walker 21-16, 21-17.
:48:21. > :48:27.Well, Malaysia and team-mates run on to celebrate. -- Malaysian. Spare a
:48:28. > :48:32.thought for Sarah Walker, lovely that the interest player turned and
:48:33. > :48:41.applauded the crowd to thank them for their support. But it has been a
:48:42. > :48:48.very good performance by Malaysia. A good team effort and as much as
:48:49. > :48:49.Sarah Walker tried, and she did play well today... I think she played
:48:50. > :49:05.really well. Disappointment for England, picking
:49:06. > :49:16.up the silver medal. Excitement here, Wet Wet Wet are due to perform
:49:17. > :49:21.here later. You can see the queue is about 40 deep, maybe about 60 and
:49:22. > :49:27.there are another 80 to 100 people along the other side. Have a look
:49:28. > :49:33.over their, all the ladies and maybe one or two male fans looking forward
:49:34. > :49:37.to seeing Wet Wet Wet on the big stage at 8pm. There is also exciting
:49:38. > :49:42.building in the SECC because one of the favourites for flyweight gold,
:49:43. > :49:44.Paddy Barnes of Northern Ireland, is set to take to the ring. Let's see
:49:45. > :49:52.how he gets on in his first fight. COMMENTATOR: The man in red is
:49:53. > :50:00.Northern Ireland's COMMENTATOR: The man in red is
:50:01. > :50:07.and successful amateur boxer, the defending gold medallist from four
:50:08. > :50:12.years ago, Paddy Barnes. Double Olympic bronze medallist, European
:50:13. > :50:15.gold medallist, has boxed in four World Championships, determined to
:50:16. > :50:20.become the first Northern Irish boxer to defend a Commonwealth
:50:21. > :50:24.title. He was the first Irish boxer to win two successive Olympic boxing
:50:25. > :50:29.medals and is very much fancied for this contest but let's not forget
:50:30. > :50:44.his opponent, the 19-year-old from Tanzania. Paddy Barnes seems to have
:50:45. > :50:49.been around forever but is only 27 and he wants another crack at the
:50:50. > :50:58.Olympics in Rio de Janeiro having lost in two successive semifinals.
:50:59. > :51:03.Barnes from Northern Ireland in red, Furahisha from Tanzania in blue.
:51:04. > :51:08.When the draw was made, every flyweight would have wanted to avoid
:51:09. > :51:13.Hadi Barnes. Unfortunately for this Tanzania and, he has drawn the gold
:51:14. > :51:25.medal favourite. Aunt is a terrific fighter, -- Barnes is a terrific
:51:26. > :51:29.fighter. He has come through various different scoring systems with
:51:30. > :51:39.success and has always adapted to the style of his opponent. He is a
:51:40. > :51:42.class act. A lot of people thought that the old computer scoring system
:51:43. > :51:47.with the judges pressing red or blue buttons would suit the style of
:51:48. > :51:53.Paddy Barnes but here he is under the new system, no headgear, and he
:51:54. > :51:58.looks at home. He was rated as number three in the flyweight
:51:59. > :51:59.division recently because for a lot of last season including the World
:52:00. > :52:02.Championships, he did move up of last season including the World
:52:03. > :52:09.flyweight but he has boiled of last season including the World
:52:10. > :52:13.down to 49 kilograms again. Maybe a diet of ice cubes and more ice
:52:14. > :52:23.cubes! He is looking comfortable, cutting off the exit. He works very
:52:24. > :52:32.well to the body, he throws lots of combinations. He does not waste the
:52:33. > :52:34.opportunity, he works downstairs and he will switch the attack to the
:52:35. > :52:51.head. That was certainly a good shot.
:52:52. > :52:56.After four days of waiting, Paddy Barnes has more than eased himself
:52:57. > :53:00.into Commonwealth Games action for the third games in a row. He boxed
:53:01. > :53:05.in Melbourne as a light flyweight and lost very controversially to a
:53:06. > :53:10.man from Swaziland in his opening contest. But he went all the way
:53:11. > :53:17.through to victory four years ago in Delhi. Terrific work again, those
:53:18. > :53:22.combinations, when he closes the gap against the southpaw, he makes sure
:53:23. > :53:28.he scores. Furahisha is really struggling. All of the judges
:53:29. > :53:41.rightly so have gone for Paddy Barnes.
:53:42. > :53:53.The head coach John Conlon just having a word with Paddy Barnes.
:53:54. > :54:01.An impressive opening round by the man in the red vest, defending the
:54:02. > :54:08.title he won with distinction four years ago. He defeated the reigning
:54:09. > :54:15.champion in that final coup was the first Namibian to win a Commonwealth
:54:16. > :54:20.gold medal but Barnes was too good for him four years ago in Delhi. He
:54:21. > :54:26.was one of three Northern Ireland boxes to take gold, it was their
:54:27. > :54:28.best games since Victoria 1994 when they took two gold medals and two
:54:29. > :54:38.silver medals. This is the lightest division of
:54:39. > :54:47.all, light flyweight. Furahisha from Tanzania. Doing a bit more forward
:54:48. > :54:53.work than he did but Barnes can pick him off. He has probably been told
:54:54. > :54:57.to catch Barnes as he comes forward but Barnes moves quickly into range
:54:58. > :55:03.and as you are trying to land, he has got three or four already. When
:55:04. > :55:07.he gets there, he does not waste the opportunity, he just keeps punching,
:55:08. > :55:14.very fast hands and it is a nightmare for Furahisha at the
:55:15. > :55:21.moment. He can put the shots into the body or the head with either
:55:22. > :55:28.hand. A good little trick, two jabs to the body and the third one, he
:55:29. > :55:44.fainted and put the right hand over the top. Clever boxing.
:55:45. > :55:52.Look at that by Barnes! It is like a machine gun. Probably seven or eight
:55:53. > :55:59.punches that went in with no reply from his opponent.
:56:00. > :56:10.He is literally in second gear as well, Barnes. Good defence as well,
:56:11. > :56:15.nothing getting through and then he comes back himself like a little
:56:16. > :56:26.snapping turtle coming out of his shell and giving you another the
:56:27. > :56:32.nip. -- giving you a nasty nip. He is happy enough to stand and trade
:56:33. > :56:40.as well. Wonderful boxing, my word, this is terrific. Jim Watt is not
:56:41. > :56:47.too far away appreciating what this man is doing. He is just breaking
:56:48. > :56:53.his opponent down, fast hands, switching the attack. He finishes
:56:54. > :56:58.the combination on the left hook. Terrific round. He overwhelmed his
:56:59. > :57:11.man in that second round. Not breathing too heavily at all.
:57:12. > :57:17.The overhead camera shows it wonderfully. That is what brought
:57:18. > :57:27.the standing count. He adjusts his feet and works to the body and then
:57:28. > :57:33.switches to the head. Good work. I remember talking with him, he is so
:57:34. > :57:41.difficult to understand, he has got a great Belfast accent! Look at
:57:42. > :57:49.that, it was a 10-8 round on two of the scorecards. I can understand
:57:50. > :57:58.him! I kissed smile and say yes! -- I just smile. He has been forthright
:57:59. > :58:03.about the vagaries of world amateur boxing. We should say that there is
:58:04. > :58:11.no such thing as amateur boxing any more, it is Olympic boxing. Dearie
:58:12. > :58:11.me. Anyway, the man who is still a rookie
:58:12. > :58:17.me. Anyway, the man who is still a good boxer, Olympic or amateur, he
:58:18. > :58:27.is on the receiving end a little bit as the teenager from Tanzania is
:58:28. > :58:33.trying to rough him up. The crowd here in the SC -- in the SECC
:58:34. > :58:47.appreciating that. Barnes has given this fellow working over.
:58:48. > :58:55.then he just turned his man and commenced the attack. Good defensive
:58:56. > :59:00.work, turning into attack. This fella in blue, he will be pleased to
:59:01. > :59:19.get through the round, Barnes is going through the gears. Great
:59:20. > :59:28.variation by Barnes. He is soaking it all up, coming back himself.
:59:29. > :59:35.Those little arms seem to have an extension to get to his opponent.
:59:36. > :59:41.The last round, they will have told him he is well behind, he has to go
:59:42. > :59:52.for it. Unfortunately his defence is to lead key. -- his defence is way
:59:53. > :59:59.too leaky. You cannot do that against Paddy Barnes. He has stopped
:00:00. > :00:10.it, with one minutes ago in the third round. Paddy Barnes winning
:00:11. > :00:18.this one by TKO. That brings it into line with the professional game. He
:00:19. > :00:26.will have words with you about his accent, later on! I probably won't
:00:27. > :00:30.understand it! Good last round, increasing the intensity. The
:00:31. > :00:39.acceleration in his work was tremendous. A good performance all
:00:40. > :00:44.round, Jim. Good bodywork. Keeping the shots going into the body.
:00:45. > :00:52.Switches into their head. The right-hand to the body keeping it
:00:53. > :00:57.going. A whirlwind of a performance from Paddy Barnes. He must be a
:00:58. > :01:19.strong favourite to retain his title. On this form, can Paddy
:01:20. > :01:25.Barnes be beaten? One or two opponents to come may think so, that
:01:26. > :01:29.they will need to be very good. Well done to Paddy Barnes, the root
:01:30. > :01:30.of the quarterfinals of the light flyweight
