There is a Creole expression, to walk together, where life is hard, | :00:41. | :00:52. | |
people depend upon each other, so man may pray together to praise the | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
same moral principles, and reaffirmed birth. | :00:57. | :01:11. | |
The game is known as Murderball, people like the name, I think. It is | :01:12. | :01:18. | |
fast, furious, that is how it should be. Very physical. Big eyes you can | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
build up a lot of speed, when they get you, you state it. It is the | :01:25. | :01:32. | |
game to watch. Welcome back to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
welcome back to the Invictus Games, the brainchild of Prince Harry. He | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
decided he wanted to take part as well. A specially arranged the | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
wheelchair rugby match, the Prince was involved, Zara Phillips as well, | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
famous sporting faces, Denise Lewis. We will have highlights and the | :01:52. | :01:59. | |
result later on. We will be joined later on by Zara Phillips and Mike | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
Tindall. Taney great Thompson alongside me. Why would you | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
involved? I think they have seen my basketball star hills. -- Tanni | :02:13. | :02:27. | |
Grey-Thompson. It is fantastic, getting people into sport, we have | :02:28. | :02:34. | |
Paralympians. About being in the military, the shared brotherhood. | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
Sharing back stories. People have been having an amazing time. We will | :02:39. | :02:45. | |
focus on athletics, taking place yesterday, some stunning | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
performances. Joe Townsend was the star of the show, the joint | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
athletics captain. He took four gold medals, and will be going to Rio. | :02:58. | :03:04. | |
Andy Grant, he took double gold, taking the 400 and 1500 metres. Over | :03:05. | :03:13. | |
role in fixing -- the overall Invictus Games team captain took | :03:14. | :03:21. | |
gold in stunning fashion. So many good stories, more to come. Let's | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
have a look at the classification system at the Invictus Games. | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
Bespoke for this event, based on the Paralympic classifications, but on | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
emphasis of allowing as many people as possible to take part. The open | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
classification is the big difference. A bit different from | :03:42. | :03:50. | |
Paralympics, no direct transfer, psychological injuries, people being | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
rehabbed. It is that transition back into mainstream sport, a release. In | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
point. A lot of these guys will be in and out of hospital, being | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
treated, it gives them competitive edge. Michaela Richard is going for | :04:05. | :04:11. | |
Britain, your commentators Steve Cram, and Michael Stallard. | :04:12. | :04:20. | |
Richardson, a real close battle there. Pulling away from Cheshire. | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
It is Michaela Richards pulling away. Gold for Great Britain. 13.96. | :04:26. | :04:39. | |
Michaela Richards putting in a very, very good performance. Expecting | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
more to line up, even though there was only three, I'm not sure anyone | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
would have got ahead of her. Winning it by a country mile. | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
She certainly did, confirmation of the result. Next up was the 400, | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
going for the golden double. Michaela Richards drawn on the | :05:02. | :05:15. | |
inside, lane two, having advertised as sprinting prowess, now showing | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
some speed enduring. She sauntered into the lead, being challenged by | :05:22. | :05:32. | |
the German athlete, and Sean Cheshire. She had the same position | :05:33. | :05:41. | |
in the 100 metres. Coming through to the halfway stage, beginning to tell | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
for Michaela Richards. It has been a long day, winning the 100 metres, | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
now very clear and the 400. As they reached the home straight. Tenbausch | :05:52. | :06:01. | |
looking safe in second place. Down the home straight, another gold | :06:02. | :06:10. | |
medal for Britain. A second for her. She grits teeth, clutches arms. Gold | :06:11. | :06:18. | |
again for Michaela Richards. Superb success, you can see the expression | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
on her face, how much she has put into that. Tenbausch coming through | :06:23. | :06:36. | |
for the silver. Cheshire in fourth. One of the toughest events that any | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
athlete can take on. After running in the 100, she started quickly, | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
built up a good lead, pushing to the line. Great victory, rewarded with a | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
pretty good time. Two gold medals, you were saying you have not done | :06:53. | :06:59. | |
the 400 before? With no 200, we decided to go for the 400, never | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
having run it. Thank you to you and Thomas -- Euan Thomas, game some | :07:06. | :07:16. | |
hints. What is the day been like? Absolutely amazing. Having done the | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
200 Warriors, this knocked it out of the park. Is it here to stay? | :07:24. | :07:31. | |
Hopefully, Invictus, two gold medals, I have conquered. Does a lot | :07:32. | :07:37. | |
of her training in Battersea Park with Dave Henderson. The next | :07:38. | :07:46. | |
qualification was for athletes with single or double amputation is below | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
the knee. The gaffer Alex Tait in lane five. -- look out for Alex | :07:50. | :08:00. | |
Tait. Watch for the surging in the last 50 | :08:01. | :08:07. | |
metres. Alex Tait is going well. It was a British one, two. 12.18, | :08:08. | :08:17. | |
quicker than this morning. Alex Tait just faltering around 50 metres to | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
the line. He had a good lead at that point. Almost caught on the line. He | :08:22. | :08:50. | |
won, two for Great Britain. Tate wins it. Limbu hoping to turn silver | :08:51. | :09:03. | |
to gold in the 200. A strong start by Limbu, second in | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
the 100 metres, running a very strong bend. Challenged by Maurice | :09:08. | :09:18. | |
Manuel. It is Limbu going clear, moving into second, the athletes and | :09:19. | :09:24. | |
the USA. It is Limbu, gold in the 200 metres. 25.47 seconds. 32 years | :09:25. | :09:34. | |
of age, competed in the Warrior games last year. Winning gold in the | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
100 and 200. Two medals this time. What a gem in this day, Silver medal | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
followed up by age in this gold. You ran away from the field? A really | :09:49. | :09:55. | |
good race. Please the 200 metres. I was hoping for gold in the 100, that | :09:56. | :10:03. | |
happy with silver. -- but happy with the silver. Happy for Alex. Tell me | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
about the expectation of the day? Has it lived up to it? Very pleased | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
with the crowd. My wife is in the crowd. Lots of support from my | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
friends and family, thanks so much, guys. Well done. Here is the roll of | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
honour yesterday. Great performance from the British team, Joe Townsend | :10:28. | :10:29. | |
with four. A very good performance, lots of | :10:30. | :10:42. | |
encouragement in the way they performed? Dave Henson has done a | :10:43. | :10:50. | |
fantastic time, that would put him in the top 15 world rankings. It | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
would put in higher last year. Joe Townsend had some impressive | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
performances. Not the fastest track, or the best conditions. Joe | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
has never really competed on the track. He has been training for the | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
triathlon. I would like to see him race a bit more on the track. I have | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
had British Triathlon tweeting me, saying leave him alone. I think he | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
could do more in the sprints. We will see him in the cycling | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
tomorrow. Just a word on Dave Henson, he is not talking about | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
Rio, maybe he will change his mind with that performance. If he gets in | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
some good quality races next year, the qualification period is 15 | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
months. I think he could do it. It will not be easy, but on the back of | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
the training he has done, his running style is really lovely. Look | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
at the top body shot, not a lot of movement. Very strong. It is hard | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
having to throw your legs wider to run. I don't want to put pressure on | :11:58. | :12:05. | |
him, but he could do it. You are going to dash, get the train, get | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
home safe and sound. We will turn our thoughts to the | :12:10. | :12:12. | |
rough-and-tumble of wheelchair rugby. Some matches have really | :12:13. | :12:20. | |
taken place, in the com petition proper, Phil Jones has the story. | :12:21. | :12:27. | |
A light show, a big precursor to the smash and tumble of wheelchair | :12:28. | :12:34. | |
rugby. The favoured USA began against Australia, Italy completing | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
the group, the top two making the semifinals. The Americans were | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
rocking the joint from the start. Steve Brown and Eddie Butler were | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
watching. Brian McIntosh, extending the | :12:48. | :12:54. | |
American lead. A comfortable victory for the United States. Paul -- Pool | :12:55. | :13:13. | |
B. Great Britain against New Zealand. It is all over, Great | :13:14. | :13:23. | |
Britain have beaten Denmark 20-15. A must win game for Australia against | :13:24. | :13:32. | |
Italy. There are mixed teams, but this showed everybody gets the same | :13:33. | :13:37. | |
treatment. Australia looks towards the semifinals. Denmark would follow | :13:38. | :13:46. | |
suit in Pool B, taking the win to keep their last four hopes afloat. | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
It was Maurice Manuel putting in! On the emphatic triumph, with nine | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
goals. Danish delivery. It was catching. -- delirium. The Americans | :13:58. | :14:05. | |
are always in sheer when Ryan McIntosh is at his best, Italy had | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
no answer. The US topping their group. That was as fearsome as it | :14:10. | :14:20. | |
got for Team GB against New Zealand. The hosts were comfortable winners | :14:21. | :14:29. | |
in their group. It does not matter what kind of injury we have got, we | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
are not on a battlefield, we are late sports pitch, we are going to | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
smash them, that gold medal is ours. Before the Golden decider, the | :14:42. | :14:44. | |
semifinals, the Americans appeared in control, leading 14-10, only for | :14:45. | :14:52. | |
Denmark to score three quick goals, and come over so close to a | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
last-ditch equaliser. The second semifinal, Charlie Walker leading, | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
GB raced away from Australia and were not for being caught. Walker | :15:02. | :15:10. | |
riding out the challenge. Good work by Natalie Robinson. Price scores. | :15:11. | :15:18. | |
It was the most clinical and resounding ways to reach the final. | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
There was a moment where I started to feel sorry for Australia, but | :15:23. | :15:24. | |
then it passed. You must be pleased with the way the | :15:25. | :15:34. | |
team is performing as a unit? We are clicking on all the lenders, the | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
passing is going good and the momentum is really good, that is all | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
you can ask for. Well done, and a medal guaranteed but it is only half | :15:42. | :15:47. | |
the job. Get to the final, the second job, still to do. You must | :15:48. | :15:53. | |
have been impressed by the crowd. It has in a packed house, top-level and | :15:54. | :16:00. | |
bottom level, the nominal. It is very loud, you cannot hear what you | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
are doing, it is mega. The American captain earlier said he wanted to | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
play you in the final, I am sure you felt the same way. We have been | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
watching the Americans, we thought we could meet them in the final, I | :16:15. | :16:18. | |
watch the Danes, it will be close, but we can take them. We hope they | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
can, it is the final we wanted to see, Great Britain against the USA | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
coming up very soon. First though, we will catch up with the highlights | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
of the celebrity wheelchair rugby match, I know you've been looking | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
forward to it, Prince Harry, Zara Phillips, it is more handbag at five | :16:38. | :16:41. | |
paces. But I tell you what, they did not hold back. COMMENTATOR: Jonny | :16:42. | :16:55. | |
Wilkinson and his team, leading 7-5. In control of the ball, he gets it | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
away to Bill Blaikie, and unease Lewis, held up. -- the | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
it looks as if the scorer of the opening goal has committed defensive | :17:09. | :17:16. | |
foul and is going to the penalty box, off to the tower with him take | :17:17. | :17:18. | |
your punishment. Seven - five, the score remains. | :17:19. | :17:37. | |
Invictus down, the three players. Pippa Middleton looks on. The | :17:38. | :17:44. | |
Bill Blaikie cannot take it and Jim Roberts comes away with it. Dennis | :17:45. | :17:53. | |
Ramsey of Australia. Into the forecourt. Jim Roberts, a slight | :17:54. | :18:03. | |
fumble. Dennis Ramsey... Can he get there. He muscles his way over the | :18:04. | :18:10. | |
line. APPLAUSE And the goal stands. 8-5. It is not | :18:11. | :18:26. | |
all elegant, Dennis Ramsey, on the scoreboard, it says 76, but it is | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
8-5. To Invictus. Just a little bit of backspin the ball. How easily he | :18:34. | :18:39. | |
dances through the waves, but the pass was picked off by Dennis | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
Decker. Prince Harry is out of the tower and back onto the court. Ian | :18:45. | :18:52. | |
he takes the hit from his team-mate, Roberts, the goal scored by Bill | :18:53. | :19:08. | |
Blakeley, 8-6, and it is the end of the game. It is victory for Jonny | :19:09. | :19:17. | |
Wilkinson's Invictus over Sir Clive Woodward's team, Endeavour, 8-6. | :19:18. | :19:26. | |
CHEERING You have got two Royals in your | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
team, what a victory, and Prince Harry with the first goal, a start? | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
It is amazing, it is a real privilege and pleasure, I'm here for | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
the ride, I have Paul beside me doing the coaching, I am shouting at | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
the guys and having some fun but they look like they're having fun | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
and everybody's inspired by being in the environment and the atmosphere. | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
I am riding the wave until the end, it has been a real joy. We had some | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
experts here, but the celebrities were of a decent standard and | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
everybody enjoyed that. You could see some of the fundamentals of Mike | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
Tindall's game coming out, smashing people around, and Jason, his speed, | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
but it shows how talented the main professional guys are, you see what | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
they do and they are unstoppable. It would frustrate me to be out there | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
and not being able to get near them, they are special, and it will be a | :20:22. | :20:25. | |
hell of a final. It has been a great day, and for me just to be around | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
here is an honour, and I hope it continues to be such a success. Very | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
well put and thank you for talking for us. Take care. Can you sum up | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
the experience with this amazing crowd and celebrities and experts as | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
well on the field of play. It seems like everybody wants to go home | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
delighted. Amazing night and the crowd has been awesome, the | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
wheelchair rugby, but it is fitness, which is amazing, we were playing | :20:56. | :20:57. | |
the diamond which didn't work CHUCKLES | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
Prince Harry has done an amazing job, marvellous event and the crowd | :21:02. | :21:04. | |
is brilliant and now we have the gold medal match and great to be | :21:05. | :21:09. | |
part of it. The lesson that Sir Clive Woodward learned, if you want | :21:10. | :21:12. | |
to win, you need Jonny Wilkinson on your team, the winners of the | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
exhibition wheelchair rugby match was Invictus. Prince Harry, and Zara | :21:17. | :21:24. | |
Phillips on the team. He got sent off, and he scored a goal. Not a bad | :21:25. | :21:31. | |
effort. A bit of fun, wasn't it? But this was quite serious, the bronze | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
medal play-off match. Denmark up against Australia. Denmark in red | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
at, Australia in the blue, it was a tense start, neither team able to | :21:42. | :21:48. | |
pull away, but a couple of goals towards the end of the first half | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
saw Denmark pull away and after then they were in control and they went | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
on to take the bronze medal. So now we are very close to the big match, | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
Great Britain against USA, let's take a look at the rules to give you | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
an idea of what is happening here. Mixed squads of ten, four players on | :22:06. | :22:12. | |
the court at any time. Rules about who can be on the court at what time | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
and with whom, minimum of one category A, and maximum of one | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
category C. No more than two category Bs. Let's go to the Copper | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
Box now whether teams are heading out, this promises to be very tense, | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
and the commentary team with Eddie Butler, and Steve Brown, the London | :22:33. | :22:38. | |
2012 captain. And Steve, let's just chat to you now... This could be two | :22:39. | :22:45. | |
captains going head to head here, they really are the strongest | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
players, just talk about the rivalry? Exactly right, these two | :22:49. | :22:54. | |
captains have really shown massive ability. For two different reasons. | :22:55. | :23:00. | |
You have got Ryan, for Australia here. He has been very, very fast | :23:01. | :23:07. | |
and quick and created his own opportunities. On the flip side, | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
Charlie, the Great Britain is very calculated and focused. And much | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
more reactive to what is happening in front of him. He is looking | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
really good. And in terms of team tactics do you man mark those key | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
players? Do you double-team them, what is the way you would approach a | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
really strong player in the opposite team? This is it, the tactics of the | :23:30. | :23:38. | |
game mean that with four players on court each player has 25% of the | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
responsibility. If you have a particularly good player has 25% of | :23:43. | :23:44. | |
the responsibility. If you have a particularly good play a player | :23:45. | :23:52. | |
free. -- if you have a particularly good player you need to macro other | :23:53. | :23:53. | |
players to marking. In the Copper Box, live, it is the | :23:54. | :24:03. | |
final of the wheelchair rugby, Eddie Butler, it is all yours. | :24:04. | :24:04. | |
COMMENTATOR: Here we go for the Grand Final, | :24:05. | :24:35. | |
Great Britain versus USA. Ryan McIntosh, the captain of the | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
Americans, perhaps the quickest player in the tournament, wearing | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
number seven for the United States, keep an eye out for him. For | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
Britain, Charlie Walker, 22, such an influential character, Geraint Price | :24:49. | :25:00. | |
wearing number four. DRAMATIC MUSIC the countdown to the start of the | :25:01. | :25:08. | |
final... And the tip. Charlie Walker, getting into Geraint Price | :25:09. | :25:15. | |
and the first point for Team GB. Geraint Price, 1-0. Excellent tip of | :25:16. | :25:21. | |
straight into the path and a nice quick goal. Exactly what Great | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
Britain needed here. Here he comes, Geraint Price. America, away with | :25:28. | :25:34. | |
it. And the scores are going to be level. Ryan McIntosh, he was a star | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
of track and football, American football. Until he stepped on a | :25:41. | :25:48. | |
landmine in Afghanistan. He lost his leg and here he is, at the Invictus | :25:49. | :25:54. | |
Games. Australia have gone back to their defence, trying to make Great | :25:55. | :25:57. | |
Britain to work hard getting across the line. Charlie Walker. Held up. | :25:58. | :26:08. | |
Penalty goal. Steve? That's right, he was pushed across the line. The | :26:09. | :26:15. | |
goal was given. Getting the ball clear. WHISTLE | :26:16. | :26:25. | |
And over goes team USA. We will have to stop CHUCKLES | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
It is one reason to stop the game, Ben Steele losing his complete | :26:30. | :26:42. | |
wheel. It does not take long. No, they are designed for a quick | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
release wheel and that was a quick release. Jonny Wilkinson. Who, as | :26:46. | :26:54. | |
the team and a jar of team Invictus who won the celebrity game, against | :26:55. | :27:00. | |
Sir Clive Woodward's team Endeavour, look how miserable he | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
looks! Charlie Walker the move. And another collapse, this time it is | :27:05. | :27:12. | |
Ben Steele again, he is in the wars. He certainly is. The first spill of | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
the game. He will be penalised with a holding file. He goes down on top | :27:17. | :27:22. | |
of the player, holding on. As much chair contact as you like but no | :27:23. | :27:31. | |
person-to-person in this game. It is 2-2. And Ben Steele. CHEERING | :27:32. | :27:38. | |
Back on four wheels. He's back into the final now. Ryan McIntosh. He has | :27:39. | :27:44. | |
the speed to get past most people on the outside. He has to to past, Mike | :27:45. | :27:54. | |
Angelo, and he takes the score. He left enough space for the runner to | :27:55. | :28:02. | |
come through, nice clean pass and he goes away. Charlie Walker bringing | :28:03. | :28:06. | |
it into the forecourt, Walker. Team USA have this very tight packed | :28:07. | :28:14. | |
defence. Walker, can he get through? It all counts, and we are all swear. | :28:15. | :28:21. | |
United States there, holding the line. Using a very strong defence, | :28:22. | :28:28. | |
with three players in the box at the same time. The fourth player is not | :28:29. | :28:32. | |
allowed in and it makes it hard for the opposition to squeeze through. | :28:33. | :28:38. | |
Hendrix will have to do this quickly, good interception from Ben | :28:39. | :28:47. | |
Steele. McIntosh penalised. A look of frustration on his face. | :28:48. | :28:55. | |
Interception. It is time now the Great Britain to capitalise on the | :28:56. | :28:59. | |
fact that the states are one man down, they have changed their press | :29:00. | :29:02. | |
and they are coming to meet the man with the ball. McIntosh sent to the | :29:03. | :29:12. | |
penalty box for that foul. We have a penalty goal given. The situation | :29:13. | :29:17. | |
there, the American player left the court between the cones, whenever | :29:18. | :29:21. | |
you do that, if it is a goal-scoring opportunity the goal is given as | :29:22. | :29:27. | |
opposed to the foul. I cannot tell you, it is a relief to have you back | :29:28. | :29:32. | |
here, and the goal counts, it is great hands, from Dan Hendrix. The | :29:33. | :29:38. | |
goal given, close onto the line, but the goal was given. Travelling back, | :29:39. | :29:44. | |
to meet his team now, for the next offensive play. Well, McIntosh is | :29:45. | :29:52. | |
around, back onto the court, Charlie Walker, two wheels over, no goal. | :29:53. | :29:59. | |
Just before he got his half of the chair over,... The wheels didn't | :30:00. | :30:05. | |
quite meet the line and he has hit the cone. In the game as you can | :30:06. | :30:10. | |
see, it means it is a turnover ball to the United States. | :30:11. | :30:18. | |
Four points apiece. Hendrix finding DeAngelo. Very much a point about | :30:19. | :30:42. | |
Britain's defensive work. Charlie Walker in possession. Good battering | :30:43. | :31:03. | |
power, Charlie Walker. He took full advantage of his team-mates driving | :31:04. | :31:10. | |
a space apart for him. McIntosh. The ball beating everybody. Not quite a | :31:11. | :31:18. | |
turnover, advantage GB. The last player to touch the ball before it | :31:19. | :31:22. | |
went off court was American, GB received the ball. A chance for them | :31:23. | :31:30. | |
to take the lead. 12 seconds to get to the forecourt. Charlie Walker no | :31:31. | :31:46. | |
problem there. You are allowed three players inside the yellow box at one | :31:47. | :31:52. | |
time by their defensive end. Unfortunately for the United States, | :31:53. | :31:55. | |
the fourth player entered the box, he will be sent off. Jacob Rich. The | :31:56. | :32:04. | |
American coach screaming at the team. | :32:05. | :32:18. | |
Robinson to Walker. One-man advantage. Walker going round and | :32:19. | :32:37. | |
scores. There we go, we needed a quick goal there to capitalise on | :32:38. | :32:43. | |
the situation, get the lead. Just under three minutes left of the | :32:44. | :32:50. | |
half. Walker shuddering McIntosh. He cannot get back in time. Stopping | :32:51. | :32:57. | |
Hendricks. Cannot stop McIntosh. Jacob Rich, Surrey. That was a two | :32:58. | :33:03. | |
horse race. Could have been anyone's. All square. The United | :33:04. | :33:18. | |
States have taken the key defence tactic. 20 seconds left on the | :33:19. | :33:26. | |
clock. They have to score before it counts down to zero. Walker gets the | :33:27. | :33:36. | |
ball to get around price. -- to price. Not going to do it. One | :33:37. | :33:47. | |
second on the clock, what they have to look to do is receive the ball | :33:48. | :33:54. | |
and score. The clock will start. They do not manage it. Advantage USA | :33:55. | :34:00. | |
as a defensive operation. That is a loose the road. Rich | :34:01. | :34:20. | |
against US Robinson. Playing very tactically, instead of trying to | :34:21. | :34:23. | |
reach for the ball, he stopped the American getting to the ball, giving | :34:24. | :34:34. | |
them the turnover. Stuart Robinson, to price. -- Price. Looking, | :34:35. | :34:53. | |
weaving. Accelerating. And scoring. Superb work. There was a moment of | :34:54. | :35:00. | |
time where the captain made the gap. Looking to see how he did help his | :35:01. | :35:05. | |
team-mate. The player leaning across to squeeze through. A change of | :35:06. | :35:22. | |
wheel. The last 25 seconds of again. -- of the game. On for the United | :35:23. | :35:36. | |
States. Monica Southall. Wearing number eight, the first woman in the | :35:37. | :35:42. | |
final. Team GB have three in their squad. Less than 20 seconds. The | :35:43. | :36:01. | |
pass from McIntosh. It is Jacob Rich. Penalty goal given. Three | :36:02. | :36:07. | |
players coming down at the same time. It was a Great Britain player | :36:08. | :36:13. | |
going over the line first. The last few seconds. Half-time in the final. | :36:14. | :36:30. | |
USA 7-8 gigabytes. -- USA and GB tied at 7-7. All square in the | :36:31. | :36:40. | |
Copper Box. A full house here. Huge volumes of sound all day. We have a | :36:41. | :36:53. | |
packed house. Denise Lewis, top of the picture. | :36:54. | :36:58. | |
Taking part in the celebrity game, Dame Kelly Holmes. Underlying her | :36:59. | :37:07. | |
credentials, ex-Army Sergeant. Also a double Olympic champion. Charlie | :37:08. | :37:23. | |
Walker, wearing 22. Two legs amputated after contracting | :37:24. | :37:29. | |
meningitis. He was training to go on deployment when he went down with | :37:30. | :37:30. | |
it. Two legs amputated. Number five, Spencer Vaughn. Break | :37:31. | :37:47. | |
his neck in training with the Royal Marines. Pippa Middleton there. | :37:48. | :37:58. | |
Peter Phillips alongside her, with his wife. | :37:59. | :38:06. | |
Team USA getting us under way, the second half of the gold medal final. | :38:07. | :38:16. | |
Ryan McIntosh. The star performer. It is a score for Chris D'Angelo. | :38:17. | :38:27. | |
His long arms helped him there, sitting high in his chair, able to | :38:28. | :38:31. | |
reach above the other players. A fingertip was all you need. Left leg | :38:32. | :38:46. | |
amputation. Great Britain giving the ball away, another turnover in | :38:47. | :38:48. | |
favour of America. D'Angelo, always looking to find | :38:49. | :39:06. | |
Ryan McIntosh. They have two keep them as confined as possible. Rich | :39:07. | :39:17. | |
losing it. Walker in possession. Preparing the way for Walker to make | :39:18. | :39:23. | |
it. Turnover Britain, all square. Fantastic composure form the | :39:24. | :39:29. | |
captain. The way he let the gaps opened up in front of him, ready to | :39:30. | :39:34. | |
make his move, going down the side. McIntosh, years away. Walker against | :39:35. | :39:43. | |
McIntosh. Walker over the line. Shows you the work Walker is putting | :39:44. | :39:51. | |
in, at the other end scoring, then defending. The 1-point lead. The | :39:52. | :40:01. | |
United States. Team captain, Charlie Walker. Price again. It is a | :40:02. | :40:11. | |
sidestep by Charlie Walker. It really was, the way he set his body | :40:12. | :40:15. | |
one way, the player moved, he reacted and went the other way, | :40:16. | :40:25. | |
making it look so easy. Very well delivered by McIntosh. Finished by | :40:26. | :40:31. | |
Chris D'Angelo. Walker... Very clever play. Pushing | :40:32. | :41:01. | |
the player out of bounds. Turning four players into three for the | :41:02. | :41:05. | |
USA, giving Great Britain the man advantage. The celebrity managers | :41:06. | :41:13. | |
look on, very tight out on court. GB with four against the American | :41:14. | :41:25. | |
defenders. We have a terrible situation where yet another American | :41:26. | :41:28. | |
has gone over the goal line. Two players. It is a very, very good | :41:29. | :41:40. | |
time for Great Britain to pull the score level. Price. They do. Here | :41:41. | :41:50. | |
means the two Americans come back on. Ryan McIntosh back on. Because | :41:51. | :41:57. | |
there were two players off, only one can come back per goal. It has gone | :41:58. | :42:04. | |
loose. That is brilliant. The American tried to recapture the | :42:05. | :42:10. | |
ball, it came off his fingertips, in turn it is Great Britain ball, | :42:11. | :42:14. | |
giving them a chance to capitalise again on the situation with only | :42:15. | :42:19. | |
three players against them. Charlie Walker. Spinning around. Price doing | :42:20. | :42:33. | |
some blocking. Contact. McIntosh having just come out of the van of | :42:34. | :42:37. | |
the box, straight back in it. Same player. Same situation. Different | :42:38. | :42:41. | |
vowel. Same disgusted face. -- different fouling. Walker scores. | :42:42. | :43:12. | |
Great Britain two up. Still 4-3. Price tracking back. Sopping Hector | :43:13. | :43:28. | |
Varela. Here is Chris D'Angelo. -- stopping. 11-11. America with the | :43:29. | :43:34. | |
full contingent. Goals scored, it would be a penalty | :43:35. | :43:53. | |
goal? Exactly that. Another situation with the man crossing the | :43:54. | :43:58. | |
goal line when the goal would have happened. Jaded -- Jacob Rich. A | :43:59. | :44:09. | |
knock-on. Ryan McIntosh. Little advantage to gigabits. Stopping the | :44:10. | :44:15. | |
United States from scoring. If they can score on their attacking | :44:16. | :44:19. | |
opportunity, they will have a two point cushion, giving you a bit of | :44:20. | :44:33. | |
breathing space. The Americans are ready doing blocking. Walker. Yet | :44:34. | :44:55. | |
another contact fowl. -- foul. As soon as one player touches another, | :44:56. | :45:01. | |
you can see contact being made. Guess what? Ryan McIntosh back in | :45:02. | :45:07. | |
the bin, 3 spells in the bin. He is so influential, is that the turning | :45:08. | :45:17. | |
point? Charlie Walker, Robinson... Loss of control. Butterfingers. The | :45:18. | :45:22. | |
situation is gigabits are getting into, fantastic. They look like | :45:23. | :45:27. | |
they're going to capitalise, they are focused and disciplined. | :45:28. | :45:31. | |
Danny Hendrix. Interception by Goering the price. It goes loose, | :45:32. | :45:37. | |
though. -- irate price. Jacob Rich, and we are all tied | :45:38. | :45:49. | |
again, and Ryan McIntosh is back on court. USA going back to the key | :45:50. | :45:58. | |
defence that they are favouring in this game, not many forward presses | :45:59. | :46:04. | |
they have done at all, trying to stop them getting out in their 12 | :46:05. | :46:10. | |
seconds. Walker meets resistance, now, Walker, back first. The team | :46:11. | :46:16. | |
making the perfect example of the pick and roll. Walker, his path is | :46:17. | :46:23. | |
blocked for the moment. Those that got back will have to re-enter the | :46:24. | :46:28. | |
rectangle. There is no space. He gets the ball away. No goal. Out of | :46:29. | :46:36. | |
bounds before he made the pass. He wrote himself into the cone after | :46:37. | :46:40. | |
the pass was made, unfortunately not enough check control. It is tense | :46:41. | :46:50. | |
here in the final. McIntosh. Rich, doing the blocking work on Charlie | :46:51. | :46:55. | |
Walker, Price, trying to match McIntosh for speed. Brilliant work | :46:56. | :47:02. | |
from Price, getting the slap on the back from his captain Charlie | :47:03. | :47:06. | |
Walker. That is why quite easily they could have been, really the end | :47:07. | :47:11. | |
of the game. But he has turned it around for them. Walker, just about | :47:12. | :47:21. | |
survives the challenge of McIntosh. Walker, he is on his own. Out of the | :47:22. | :47:29. | |
way, way, Walker, for the line. 13-12, Great Britain lead. That was | :47:30. | :47:36. | |
a phenomenal team effort. Walker, relying on his team-mates all the | :47:37. | :47:41. | |
way. Webb price with the interception, Walker reclaim 's | :47:42. | :47:42. | |
possession. Waiting for the official decision. | :47:43. | :47:54. | |
You can see the sidestep from Walker, giving himself the space and | :47:55. | :48:00. | |
over the line. Ryan McIntosh is in the bin, the Great Britain captain, | :48:01. | :48:04. | |
Charlie Walker is on court, McIntosh is back in the penalty box. Four | :48:05. | :48:13. | |
spells there. 13 seconds left on the clock, and GB with the ball. Stuart | :48:14. | :48:22. | |
Robinson, the Walker. Four, against three and Walker looking for the | :48:23. | :48:26. | |
route to the line. And the countdown is on. He is playing the clock, he | :48:27. | :48:32. | |
does not want to give America another chance. Oh, Charlie Walker, | :48:33. | :48:38. | |
the captain putting GB two points ahead. And time is up. Unfortunately | :48:39. | :48:47. | |
the very last goal was slightly behind the clock. No goal, but Team | :48:48. | :49:01. | |
GB still getting the lead. It is note to point cushion but it is | :49:02. | :49:05. | |
victory for Team GB having beaten the United States -- it is not a | :49:06. | :49:12. | |
2-point cushion. 13-12. Celebrations all around, number 22, Charlie | :49:13. | :49:16. | |
Walker, the captain, what a final he had. Price opened the scoring, it | :49:17. | :49:22. | |
seems there has been a recount. Did the last goal count? From what I | :49:23. | :49:31. | |
saw, with the referee's reactions, he signalled that it was no goal. | :49:32. | :49:45. | |
APPLAUSE That is the scoreboard, inside the | :49:46. | :49:56. | |
stadium. One point, or to point it makes no difference, it is the | :49:57. | :50:00. | |
result that matters. GB, victors in the wheelchair rugby. A great spirit | :50:01. | :50:11. | |
between the teams. And the captains, Ryan McIntosh and Charlie | :50:12. | :50:18. | |
Walker. Absolutely a team victory, they really made space for each | :50:19. | :50:21. | |
other and work together and kept the ball say. Fantastic. CHEERING | :50:22. | :50:36. | |
Well, the American captain, four spells in the penalty box which is | :50:37. | :50:44. | |
pretty unusual, isn't it? Yeah, some players have a little bit of a run, | :50:45. | :50:49. | |
the adrenaline in him, captain and he wanted to win and you often push | :50:50. | :50:53. | |
yourself a bit further than you showed in those situations. I know | :50:54. | :51:01. | |
I've had my spells in the penalty box. Former captain, in wheelchair | :51:02. | :51:09. | |
rugby, Steve Brown, it has been a privilege to have you here, your | :51:10. | :51:13. | |
expertise has got us through the day and what the day it's been. It's | :51:14. | :51:19. | |
been a privilege to be here, absolutely Farrelly enjoyed it and | :51:20. | :51:25. | |
some great rugby here. -- thoroughly enjoyed it. The last hurdle of the | :51:26. | :51:32. | |
team and there will be some celebrations. It is rugby after all. | :51:33. | :51:37. | |
When you think this is all about recovery, getting your life back | :51:38. | :51:41. | |
together. Through sport. This will live with them long after the Grand | :51:42. | :51:52. | |
Final. Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it again 14 Great Britain. Phil | :51:53. | :51:59. | |
Jones is with the winning captain. An astonishing atmosphere and you | :52:00. | :52:05. | |
helped inspire it with an inspirational performance of your | :52:06. | :52:09. | |
own. You have these guys, making all the noise, it is like the fifth man | :52:10. | :52:15. | |
and it gets you over the line. Described the moment when you score | :52:16. | :52:19. | |
the winning goal? It was awesome, I saw the gap and I went for it. We | :52:20. | :52:25. | |
cannot convey to the people at home just how noisy it is. It is, you get | :52:26. | :52:30. | |
squaddies together and their families, this is the kind of noise | :52:31. | :52:36. | |
they will create. What tribute would you pay to this team and this group | :52:37. | :52:40. | |
of people behind you? It is an awesome group of people, those on | :52:41. | :52:44. | |
the court, those on the bench and the support staff, everybody who has | :52:45. | :52:50. | |
got us here. Magnificent performance, congratulations. Thank | :52:51. | :52:50. | |
you very much. CHEERING Commiserations, I saw you shaking | :52:51. | :53:07. | |
your head several times from the penalty box, what was going through | :53:08. | :53:12. | |
your mind? I was disappointed in myself, I did not play my best game, | :53:13. | :53:17. | |
I got rattled, but Great Britain pulled it out, they are a great | :53:18. | :53:24. | |
team, we played the best, we lost. It was a tremendous final, nip and | :53:25. | :53:27. | |
tuck, how much of a factor was the crowd and the home crowd advantage? | :53:28. | :53:35. | |
The crowd is the crowd, you hear it. You try to block it out, not a big | :53:36. | :53:39. | |
deal. They were allowed. USA was loud for us as well. Tremendous | :53:40. | :53:43. | |
performance to get to the final, well done on the silver. Thank you | :53:44. | :53:50. | |
very much. STUDIO: It was a final we anticipated and it did not | :53:51. | :53:54. | |
disappoint, Ryan McIntosh spent a long time in the bin but Charlie | :53:55. | :53:57. | |
Walker brought it home for the British team. Really was | :53:58. | :54:03. | |
outstanding. I am delighted to say, new devotees to wheelchair rugby, | :54:04. | :54:06. | |
Zara Phillips and Mike Tindall. Great to have you here. You have got | :54:07. | :54:09. | |
the bragging rights because you were part of the team which won the | :54:10. | :54:14. | |
celebrity match, but let's have a look at Charlie Walker and the | :54:15. | :54:18. | |
decisive goal first. Maybe you could talk through it, Mike, now you know | :54:19. | :54:23. | |
so much about it. I am fluent now, aren't I? We saw it in our game as | :54:24. | :54:30. | |
well. The ability to move around the defenders and stop and go. Change | :54:31. | :54:34. | |
direction. That was the perfect example. How well the team read what | :54:35. | :54:39. | |
he was able to do and to be able to block the other players, to create | :54:40. | :54:44. | |
the gap to go through. Tremendous, let's take a look at your match, | :54:45. | :54:48. | |
your team, got off to a flying start when Prince Harry scored. Lou macro | :54:49. | :54:53. | |
you could not have written it, fantastic goal, easy. We will have | :54:54. | :55:00. | |
to go back and look at that again with Dame Kelly Holmes, she lost her | :55:01. | :55:05. | |
marker. You did well, I have two say? ! Lu | :55:06. | :55:15. | |
-- it was so much easier than training. At this stage, Mike you | :55:16. | :55:21. | |
were taking a lesser role but you got into the act? That is how I like | :55:22. | :55:27. | |
to score mine, from one yard, catch and poach, I was a bit unhappy I did | :55:28. | :55:33. | |
not manage to flip. Harry went from the golden boy to bad boy,. | :55:34. | :55:39. | |
Familiar. He was stuck, he was pushed over by Lewis, she's guilty. | :55:40. | :55:50. | |
It was good power, knocking him over row. Amazing atmosphere. It was | :55:51. | :55:56. | |
fantastic. Everybody got behind it all, and it was great fun. It seems | :55:57. | :56:01. | |
to be a game that is a lot of fun and the crowd gets involved and all | :56:02. | :56:04. | |
the players try to lift the crowd and there was a bit of the old | :56:05. | :56:08. | |
villain when you go to the sin-bin. They play on that. The players play | :56:09. | :56:12. | |
on it as well which makes it more fun to interact with, and as | :56:13. | :56:17. | |
players. Really great. On a serious note, to see this go so well, and | :56:18. | :56:22. | |
Prince Harry has put so much into this, he's given so much of himself. | :56:23. | :56:27. | |
He's putting everything into it. It has been a fantastic result. It's | :56:28. | :56:33. | |
going so well. The people that are competing here are amazing. | :56:34. | :56:41. | |
Inspirational. And sport, and an inspiration together, it works so | :56:42. | :56:45. | |
well. Back to parenthood now, thank you. CHUCKLES | :56:46. | :56:49. | |

really perfect family day. I love that picture. Having a lot of fun, | :57:40. | :57:44. | |
one for the family album, that's the shore. I tell you what it reminds me | :57:45. | :57:50. | |
a little bit of me and my boys -- that's for sure. I thought I was | :57:51. | :57:54. | |
trendy but they were saying, not at all. Anyway, we'll be back again | :57:55. | :57:57. | |
