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.

We will be back tomorrow, this is what we look forward to, we will

:56:50.:56:54.

have cycling on the velodrome, it is actually outdoors, the road races

:56:55.:56:57.

:56:58.:57:02.

wheelchair basketball, the same format, the pool matches and through

:57:03.:57:06.

to the knockout stages and then the final. High hopes for the British

:57:07.:57:13.

team. And also, the archery, we will catch up with all of the action from

:57:14.:57:18.

the archery which took place early on. We are back again tomorrow,

:57:28.:57:31.

:57:32.:57:35.

the Olympic Park, the cycling is free, it's turning out to be a

:57:36.:57:39.

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.

tomorrow, thanks for your company, goodbye! DRAMATIC MUSIC
