field. Kelly Hudson is umpiring this one.

:00:00.:00:00.

She will be joined by another Australian umpire. Under

:00:00.:00:07.

quarterfinal is under way. And Laura Unsworth has been

:00:08.:00:18.

outstanding throughout the tournament, now Kate

:00:19.:00:21.

Richardson-Walsh. Mel Clewlow is alongside, good evening. Good

:00:22.:00:26.

evening, looking forward to this one massively, to be fair to Spain, they

:00:27.:00:32.

have just played against Germany and Korea, they will not be a pushover,

:00:33.:00:36.

they have changed the style they play, and we could be in for another

:00:37.:00:42.

really interesting, cracking game of hockey. The ball has fallen kindly

:00:43.:00:47.

for Sophie Bray, shooting opportunity, she has won a penalty

:00:48.:00:50.

corner for Great Britain after less than 40 seconds of play. That is

:00:51.:00:57.

just the start they wanted. Fantastic play by Sophie Bray,

:00:58.:01:01.

getting the ball up in the air, just jingling it off the stick, sometimes

:01:02.:01:09.

referred to as 3D skills, she has won a penalty corner within 40

:01:10.:01:14.

seconds of the start of the game. Early test for Maria Lopez between

:01:15.:01:18.

the sticks for Spain and her defenders, Hannah Macleod will

:01:19.:01:26.

inject. Crista Cullen is poised, and Jill Giselle Ansley is alongside.

:01:27.:01:40.

Good effort and not a bad safe from Maria Lopez, it was heading for the

:01:41.:01:47.

top corner. Sophie Bray right in the thick of the action in the first

:01:48.:01:52.

minute of the match, Spain with a chance to get inside the British out

:01:53.:01:58.

of the field for the first time. Hannah Macleod injects to the

:01:59.:02:01.

nearest castle, Crista Cullen growing across, you could see Lopez

:02:02.:02:07.

taking have a step to her right hand side, but Cullen could not put it

:02:08.:02:12.

into that corner, big save from Lopez. Four periods of 15 minutes,

:02:13.:02:18.

the new format, which has been very well received for these Olympics. In

:02:19.:02:25.

past Games, in London, there were classification matches, no

:02:26.:02:27.

quarterfinals, so this is better all round. Alex Danson back to Nicola

:02:28.:02:33.

White, then back to Danson, top scorer for GB in the Games so far

:02:34.:02:38.

with three. White has a couple as well, she takes the free here. This

:02:39.:02:48.

is a decent start for Great Britain, Hollie Webb fires its down the right

:02:49.:02:51.

side, Susannah Townsend looking for the ball. I think the pleasing thing

:02:52.:02:59.

for Great Britain in this tournament, they have got six

:03:00.:03:02.

different scorers on the scoresheet. Normally so much is reliant on Alex

:03:03.:03:07.

Danson or, at times, Crista Cullen or the penalty corner routines. To

:03:08.:03:11.

have six coming into the quarterfinals on the scoresheet is

:03:12.:03:16.

not only an opposition coach's nightmare, but confidence for those

:03:17.:03:19.

players that they can score at this level. Slow burner here from Great

:03:20.:03:26.

Britain, Ansley, solid pass to Laura Unsworth. She is still getting stuck

:03:27.:03:32.

in against Maria Lopez. Lopez wins that battle, Spain on the right now

:03:33.:03:39.

with Gloria Comerma. It has fallen nicely for Begona Garcia, but Kate

:03:40.:03:46.

Richardson-Walsh was alert. A wide run for Alex Danson, she hit the

:03:47.:03:51.

right flank at pace. Lovely touch inside for Townsend, just loses out,

:03:52.:03:56.

just a touch too much for Townsend. When Townsend picks up the ball,

:03:57.:04:01.

three Spanish players, she managed to turn Lola Riera nicely, but three

:04:02.:04:07.

players on her. Townsend again, servicing, pushed behind, GB will

:04:08.:04:18.

get a free hit. Webb. Pro-gun Spain won't mind defending at all, it's

:04:19.:04:25.

what their game is built on. As we see them now, this is how they used

:04:26.:04:30.

to play at pretty much every single international match, they are more

:04:31.:04:34.

than comfortable being in a defensive position, the players know

:04:35.:04:37.

their roles, and it is important that Great Britain can get the ball,

:04:38.:04:41.

move on, get ahead and really use the speed and physicality that they

:04:42.:04:45.

have developed over the last four years. Spain go Arial, the ball

:04:46.:04:59.

bouncing. Nice passage, Begona Garcia heading forward now towards

:05:00.:05:05.

the circle. And Gloria Comerma is down to restart for Spain. Lopez.

:05:06.:05:18.

Way too much force on that attempted pass, the ball was airborne and

:05:19.:05:24.

bounced towards the corner flag as well. GB won't mind that at all,

:05:25.:05:30.

that is what Spain are going to resort to already, that is a

:05:31.:05:34.

positive sign for Great Britain. Great Britain on the break again,

:05:35.:05:40.

Sophie Bray is in the D, waiting for some service - it never came.

:05:41.:05:50.

Townsend, lightning fast. Plays it back to Helen Richardson-Walsh.

:05:51.:05:59.

Helen Richardson-Walsh, great stick work, and she is following up, but

:06:00.:06:05.

Great Britain lose possession. Helen Richardson-Walsh has had the bit

:06:06.:06:09.

between their teeth, I would say, in the last two and a half games in

:06:10.:06:12.

this competition, Soderbergh got to get the ball off and another person

:06:13.:06:18.

who will be a positive influence on this game tonight. -- so difficult

:06:19.:06:30.

to get the ball off. Spain in no rush to restart. Helen

:06:31.:06:35.

Richardson-Walsh with a solid stick in the way. I think it is really

:06:36.:06:41.

good to see Great Britain starting with such a high press, trying to

:06:42.:06:44.

put the Spanish defenders under pressure as early as possible.

:06:45.:06:52.

Nice pass, Spain with a chance to break, a little space on the left

:06:53.:07:01.

flank here, only as far as Sam Quek. Nice first touch from Quek. Great

:07:02.:07:07.

Britain rampaging forward, Townsend turns and accelerates, beautiful

:07:08.:07:10.

move from Susannah Townsend all the way to the baseline. Sam Quek is

:07:11.:07:18.

forward now. Looking around. Decides to take it on herself, have another

:07:19.:07:23.

go, Quek all the way to the edge of the circle, and then back out to the

:07:24.:07:28.

sideline. Georgie Twigg fires it forward. An attempted shot off a

:07:29.:07:37.

Spanish vote, and it will be Great Britain's second penalty corner.

:07:38.:07:41.

Absolutely brilliant from Sophie Bray, a bouncing ball coming away

:07:42.:07:45.

from goal, adds to hit it on the upright into the ground, it bounces

:07:46.:07:50.

up and do Lopez's but, second penalty corner for Britain, positive

:07:51.:07:55.

start by the girls so far. Eight and a quarter minutes left in the first

:07:56.:08:00.

period, Great Britain 0, Spain 0. This time Georgie Twigg will have

:08:01.:08:05.

the injection duties for Great Britain. Laura Unsworth poised to

:08:06.:08:13.

potentially have a strike at this, or maybe Giselle Ansley. A change in

:08:14.:08:20.

tactics for Great Britain, here is Ansley, Unsworth, just off the stick

:08:21.:08:25.

and over, that was close. Sophie Bray's stick in a way, Spanish

:08:26.:08:30.

possession, two penalty corners have come and gone so far for Great

:08:31.:08:35.

Britain. Fantastic delivery by Laura Unsworth, flat and that speed, and

:08:36.:08:40.

Sophie Bray unfortunately angles are stick too much and sends the ball

:08:41.:08:45.

over the crossbar. GB absolutely camped out in the Spanish have at

:08:46.:08:49.

the moment, and it has fallen kindly again. The break, support inside,

:08:50.:08:57.

needs to be laid-back. -- fallen kindly again for Sophie Bray.

:08:58.:09:02.

Desperate Spanish defence, another penalty corner, this will be number

:09:03.:09:08.

three. Helen Richardson-Walsh just grabbing her way along the baseline,

:09:09.:09:12.

just pinball in there, so many players. In the end, I think it

:09:13.:09:17.

comes off Gutierrez for the third penalty corner, but that came from

:09:18.:09:22.

GB winning the ball high up, Georgie Twigg pushing up from the screen

:09:23.:09:27.

position, they robbed Spain just over their 25 yard Lane, and it has

:09:28.:09:37.

been one-way traffic so far. Kate Richardson-Walsh and Giselle Ansley

:09:38.:09:40.

in position to have a strike at this one. Ansley tries a flick, scores,

:09:41.:09:50.

Great Britain are in friend! It came off Georgie Twigg's stick and over

:09:51.:09:56.

for the goal. I do not think there is anybody here who can say Great

:09:57.:09:59.

Britain do not deserve the lead, fantastically well worked penalty

:10:00.:10:05.

corner, it goes out to the far castle, and Giselle Ansley fires the

:10:06.:10:10.

ball, and it was either going to be Helen Richardson-Walsh, flying in,

:10:11.:10:14.

getting a touch, but this is a team that shows its confidence, because

:10:15.:10:18.

the injector as the stick flat on the floor, Richardson-Walsh misses

:10:19.:10:24.

it, Georgie Twigg doesn't, fantastic. Her first goal of the

:10:25.:10:29.

Olympic tournament, and for an Olympic quarterfinal, this has been

:10:30.:10:33.

remarkably one-sided in terms of possession, all Team GB in the first

:10:34.:10:39.

seven and a half minutes. And they have got their reward, Great Britain

:10:40.:10:47.

1, Spain 0. Nichola White takes it up towards the halfway line, held

:10:48.:10:59.

up. Cullen, Quek, Lily Owsley on the field now, let's see what she can

:11:00.:11:05.

bring to the game. She just left the ball behind and tried to take Gine

:11:06.:11:09.

one. Owsley hounding the defenders, who

:11:10.:11:23.

have lost their shape at the moment, just need a little bit of time and

:11:24.:11:30.

space to regroup. Sam Quek loses out, Spain come down this right

:11:31.:11:38.

flank with Magaz, but a nice day from Alex Danson, lasered off to

:11:39.:11:50.

Lily Owsley. -- lays it off. Tumblr pushes it out of play. At the moment

:11:51.:11:55.

Spain cannot compete with the intensity that Great Britain are it

:11:56.:12:03.

at. It took three, four, five Spanish players out of the game

:12:04.:12:07.

there, and anyone who thinks that Great Britain cannot keep this up

:12:08.:12:11.

for three quarters plus five minutes are in for a nice surprise tonight,

:12:12.:12:18.

because these guys are fit tonight. Up for grabs, a place in the

:12:19.:12:23.

semifinal to play New Zealand, who defeated Australia today. Quek on

:12:24.:12:34.

the left for Great Britain, perfect pass, precise to Alex Danson, heads

:12:35.:12:39.

infield to Georgie Twigg. White back to Danson.

:12:40.:12:53.

Crista Cullen finds White in midfield

:12:54.:13:03.

it has been left, and it almost fell for Townsend. Now Owsley, it has

:13:04.:13:15.

fallen for Danson, who drilled that across, a Spanish stick was in the

:13:16.:13:23.

way. Attempted nutmeg around Hollie Webb. I think, to be fair to Spain,

:13:24.:13:32.

they were the lowest ranked team in the tournament, and to make the

:13:33.:13:36.

quarterfinals is a massive plus for them and their hockey. Missed by Sam

:13:37.:13:43.

Quek, Spain with Petchame all the way to the baseline. Owsley back

:13:44.:13:49.

defending, Kate Richardson-Walsh has made a little run ahead of her, and

:13:50.:13:54.

she is there. Then a bit of confusion between Richardson-Walsh

:13:55.:13:56.

and Alex Danson. Also, when you speak to the Spanish

:13:57.:14:08.

coach, Adrian Locke, he was very much targeting Tokyo 2020 with this

:14:09.:14:12.

group of players, so to have this experience four years out, the

:14:13.:14:17.

Spanish goal is something that a lot of these girls will remember and be

:14:18.:14:20.

able to build on with their programme over the next four years.

:14:21.:14:25.

Spanish player down, in some distress, Georgina Oliva, she has

:14:26.:14:37.

been struck. Adrian Locke watching on. I think it was a collision

:14:38.:14:50.

between Oliva and possibly MacLeod. Sophie Bray is having to tidy things

:14:51.:14:59.

up, Danson back defending, as Hollie Webb shadows the Spanish attack down

:15:00.:15:00.

the right. You cannot help feeling that it's

:15:01.:15:14.

bane I going to get back into this game to push for the semifinal

:15:15.:15:18.

position, there will have to make the most of the opportunities they

:15:19.:15:21.

get when they get the ball into the GB defending 25. -- if Spain are

:15:22.:15:27.

going to. It is the best passage of play we

:15:28.:15:38.

have seen from Spain so far, in the last three minutes of this first

:15:39.:15:49.

quarter. Terrific movement from Bray. For me, I think Sophie Bray

:15:50.:16:00.

made the wrong decision. The ball should have gone to Helen

:16:01.:16:04.

Richardson-Walsh, and then it could have gone back into Alex Danson, but

:16:05.:16:08.

they decided to go the more direct route.

:16:09.:16:19.

That is an easy finish for Helen Richardson-Walsh. Second goal. A

:16:20.:16:33.

mistake by Spain has been well and truly punished by the British team.

:16:34.:16:40.

The ball rolled from Danson to Sophie Bray, puts it on to her

:16:41.:16:46.

favoured backhand. Helen Richardson-Walsh finds herself

:16:47.:16:51.

between two Spanish defenders. Simple tap in for now Britain's

:16:52.:16:57.

highest scorer of the tournament so far. It is an uphill struggle for

:16:58.:17:01.

Spain and hopefully, Great Britain will continue to push on. Third goal

:17:02.:17:09.

of the tournament for Helen Richardson-Walsh, to put her level

:17:10.:17:09.

with Alex Danson. Two minutes left until the end of

:17:10.:17:20.

the quarter. It is just the start Great Britain needed. Nicola White

:17:21.:17:31.

has had a really good tournament as well.

:17:32.:18:11.

Crista Cullen's pass was poor, but it was tidied up by Susannah

:18:12.:18:14.

Townsend. They have done well this evening to

:18:15.:18:27.

play the simple ball into space for the players to run onto. My only

:18:28.:18:32.

fear is that they are now going to start trying to dribble, or will

:18:33.:18:38.

they send a message out to the teams left in this tournament? Spain have

:18:39.:18:47.

one chance before the hooter to get on the scoresheet. But the defence

:18:48.:18:54.

so far from Great Britain has been rock solid.

:18:55.:19:05.

There is the hooter. Great Britain are in control, with goals from

:19:06.:19:13.

Georgina Twigg and Helen Richardson-Walsh.

:19:14.:19:21.

DAN WALKER: very impressive from Team GB. We shall be there shortly,

:19:22.:19:26.

but on day ten of the games here in Rio, let's bring you the headlines.

:19:27.:19:34.

There is another gold for Team GB today. It came from Charlotte

:19:35.:19:37.

Dujardin in the individual dressage, just like she did four years ago.

:19:38.:19:42.

She and Valegro did the business, and there were a few tears.

:19:43.:19:47.

Bronze in the hammer for Sophie Hitchon. Her last throw of the

:19:48.:19:52.

competition, she broke her own British record and was delighted

:19:53.:20:00.

with 74.54 metres. There was a gold in the men's vault for the North

:20:01.:20:09.

Korean. And in the women's beam, Simone Biles didn't take the gold.

:20:10.:20:14.

She was only good enough for bronze today after a little wobble. It was

:20:15.:20:21.

won by the Netherlands. And Marcus Ellis and Chris Langridge, who we

:20:22.:20:25.

showed you BBC Four, have been the eighth seeded pair to reach the

:20:26.:20:34.

doubles semifinals. Over on BBC Two at the moment, that man, Viviani,

:20:35.:20:41.

has just won the omnium for Italy. He has taken the gold. Mark

:20:42.:20:44.

Cavendish was in silver medal position and coming up soon is Laura

:20:45.:20:49.

Trott, going in the elimination race of the women's omnium. She is the

:20:50.:20:56.

current Olympic gold medallist from London in four years ago.

:20:57.:21:03.

Where are we going next? O'Connor straight back to the hockey. Back to

:21:04.:21:14.

Mel and Matt. COMMENTATOR: Second-quarter under

:21:15.:21:21.

way. You sense there will be a few more goals in this one.

:21:22.:21:38.

Good to see the players starting with intensity.

:21:39.:21:59.

Spain only got a late call to play in the Olympic hockey tournament

:22:00.:22:06.

following South Africa's decision to not field a men's or women's team.

:22:07.:22:13.

Spain got the lucky loser's entry. They were not really prepared for

:22:14.:22:16.

Olympic participation and have done exceptionally well to make it to the

:22:17.:22:21.

quarterfinals. But at the moment, they are being rather found out.

:22:22.:22:41.

At quarter time, Adrian Lock was trying to drum some enthusiasm into

:22:42.:22:47.

his team. He was frustrated that some of them were just walking into

:22:48.:22:50.

the huddle. He will be disappointed with that first quarter, but

:22:51.:22:54.

sometimes you have to give credit to the opposition. As we have said many

:22:55.:22:58.

times this evening, Great Britain have really come out of the blocks

:22:59.:23:02.

and played an exceptional quarter of hockey. Townsend was tripped. No

:23:03.:23:10.

damage done. Wonderful stick and ball skills from

:23:11.:23:46.

Sophie Bray. They have been a key feature of Britain's success so far.

:23:47.:23:59.

Shona McCallin hit a Spanish stick during her follow-through. No real

:24:00.:24:02.

power on it. Penalty corner for Great Britain,

:24:03.:24:37.

penalty corner number four. It is given for a couple of stick tackles.

:24:38.:24:43.

Sophie Bray does well to ride the first one from La Paz, and then

:24:44.:24:47.

Gutierrez comes in with another one. -- from Lopez.

:24:48.:24:57.

Combination of Sam Quek and Sophie Bray winning a penalty corner for

:24:58.:25:01.

Great Britain. Giselle Ansley and Kate

:25:02.:25:14.

Richardson-Walsh are poised to make the drag flick. It is saved. Great

:25:15.:25:27.

Britain still very much in possession and pressing forward.

:25:28.:25:40.

Great Britain are climbing all over this Spanish defence at the moment.

:25:41.:25:51.

Here is the penalty corner again. Giselle Ansley uses the number one

:25:52.:25:58.

runner, tries to block Lopez's view, but she just manages to get the

:25:59.:26:03.

outside of her right pad to make the save from Giselle Ansley.

:26:04.:26:42.

GB are finding themselves in some good positions, getting players onto

:26:43.:26:56.

that baseline. It is good to see that the intentions are there. Their

:26:57.:27:00.

passing skills have been brilliant tonight.

:27:01.:27:11.

Gloria Comerma has set up a promising Spanish attack.

:27:12.:27:26.

Argentina supporters are here for the last quarterfinal of the day,

:27:27.:27:32.

which will be at 8.30, local time. Sticks everywhere, but it is Great

:27:33.:28:15.

Britain's ball. Unfortunately, there were two players in the area as the

:28:16.:28:19.

ball was going to land, which is widely umpire has blown it up. It

:28:20.:28:25.

would have been a Great Britain ball, but it is deemed to be

:28:26.:28:27.

dangerous. Goals from Georgina Twigg and Helen

:28:28.:29:01.

Richardson-Walsh Labritz two sides at the moment. The reward would be a

:29:02.:29:06.

semifinal against the Black sticks, New Zealand. But there is still a

:29:07.:29:19.

long way to go, so we can't write the Spanish off yet.

:29:20.:29:34.

Sophie Bray has had an outstanding match so far.

:29:35.:29:55.

I think in any sport, if you play in the forward line, the most important

:29:56.:30:04.

thing is goals. That is what gives you confidence. Sophie Bray didn't

:30:05.:30:08.

score in the first couple of games, but since she has got on the board,

:30:09.:30:12.

she has been outstanding. Same with Alex Danson and Lili Owsley. The

:30:13.:30:17.

forwards are now scoring goals and you can see the confidence they have

:30:18.:30:19.

got. Alex Danson has just arrived in the

:30:20.:30:41.

circle, they have let it be taken up by Richardson-Walsh, so much skill

:30:42.:30:45.

and confidence from Bray! Penalty corner for Great Britain, this is

:30:46.:30:55.

their fifth. Now, the Spanish are contesting it, and they want to go

:30:56.:30:57.

to the video referral. No? You want to know which stick it

:30:58.:31:13.

came off? I think it came off red, they wanted off white. The ball came

:31:14.:31:23.

off a GB stick. It came off Sophie Bray's stick? Hard to tell, I think,

:31:24.:31:33.

in normal speed. It not take the video referee long to overturn that

:31:34.:31:38.

decision. That decision is overturned, Spain got it right, they

:31:39.:31:45.

keep their video referral option. Role, Bray is at it again,

:31:46.:31:49.

extraordinarily skill, Alex Danson could not make contact. Sophie Bray,

:31:50.:31:56.

in this mood, it is going to be long night for the Spanish defence, I

:31:57.:32:02.

think. Laura Unsworth deep in the Spanish have, Kate Richardson-Walsh

:32:03.:32:03.

up as well. Hollie Webb. Flicked in, blocked by Spain, Crista

:32:04.:32:18.

Cullen write-up on the edge of the circle, controlling things here. --

:32:19.:32:25.

right up. Clattering about just in front of the goal, and Spain get

:32:26.:32:33.

away with it. Not convinced on that decision, but I think Great Britain

:32:34.:32:37.

made the right decision not to go to the referral, because it would have

:32:38.:32:45.

been an interpretation thing. Giselle Ansley finds a Sophie Bray,

:32:46.:32:52.

Townsend, Townsend in pursuit down the centre. This time, Great Britain

:32:53.:32:57.

do get a penalty corner, and Spain are given a card. Christina Guinea

:32:58.:33:07.

is sent packing for two minutes. So hard to defend when a player arrives

:33:08.:33:11.

on the ball at speed, that is what Townsend did, she managed to get the

:33:12.:33:18.

ball away from one player... I think the stick tackle was probably a

:33:19.:33:22.

little bit further back than that, but all positive from Great Britain.

:33:23.:33:31.

Crista Cullen is forward, Giselle Ansley is forward, Kate

:33:32.:33:33.

Richardson-Walsh will inject the ball this time. Great Britain's

:33:34.:33:41.

fifth penalty corner. It comes off a couple of British sticks, the

:33:42.:33:46.

backhand attempt is a good one. Another opportunity, the ball

:33:47.:33:52.

eventually falls behind the goal. So Spain, in their defending, decided

:33:53.:33:57.

to run a low box, number one and number two just over the penalty

:33:58.:34:03.

spot. They clearly think that GB's strengths are the tips and touches

:34:04.:34:04.

in front of Lopez. Four minutes until half-time, Great

:34:05.:34:14.

Britain 2, Spain 0. Crista Cullen, so much time, plenty

:34:15.:34:32.

of options, finds Owsley, who in turn finds Bray, who was all over

:34:33.:34:36.

the field tonight, slides and left to Susannah Townsend. Oh, what a run

:34:37.:34:42.

from Owsley, fallen on her face in the circle, Spain can escape. Great

:34:43.:34:51.

Britain possession once again. Sam Quek on the right. Bray sends it in,

:34:52.:35:02.

Danson picks it up and lasered back, and what an easy finish for Lily

:35:03.:35:12.

Owsley! Great Britain 3, Spain 0! These passage of play was started by

:35:13.:35:19.

Hollie Webb stepping up, quick transfer ball, Sophie Bray with a

:35:20.:35:29.

great touch, Alex Danson, Lily Owsley lays it into an open goal,

:35:30.:35:34.

GBR first to everything, and everything they are touching goes

:35:35.:35:38.

towards goal, and if it is not going into the back of the net, it is

:35:39.:35:42.

forcing Lopez to make the save. It is a long road back for Spain now.

:35:43.:35:47.

Lily Owsley's third goal of the games. Just over three minutes until

:35:48.:35:58.

half-time. An outstanding performance from the entire British

:35:59.:36:05.

team so far tonight. Spain outplayed in every department. Sam Quek back

:36:06.:36:13.

defending. I think the concern for Spain will be the fact that both

:36:14.:36:17.

Helen Richardson-Walsh and Lily Owsley have basically tapped the

:36:18.:36:21.

ball in from two yards away, no Spanish defenders around them, and

:36:22.:36:25.

the ball is going into that danger area. It is probably the movement of

:36:26.:36:29.

those players rather than them being stood there and a defender not doing

:36:30.:36:34.

their job, but for that to happen, it is about timing, knowing when the

:36:35.:36:38.

pass is going to come for Owsley to step in front of the defender. Spain

:36:39.:36:48.

with a rare excursion into the Great Britain circle. Danny Kerry on the

:36:49.:36:52.

right with the red baseball cap, relatively relaxed tonight.

:36:53.:37:00.

Owsley finds McCallin, all the way back to Kate Richardson-Walsh.

:37:01.:37:18.

Owsley combines with Helen Richardson-Walsh on the right, Helen

:37:19.:37:23.

Richardson-Walsh has made a chunk of ground, and that was almost a

:37:24.:37:27.

wonderful turn and escape by Susannah Townsend, just held up.

:37:28.:37:40.

Spain have under a minute and a half to get something from this first 30

:37:41.:37:50.

minutes of hockey. A bit of space here, Christina Guinea, her passes

:37:51.:37:59.

behind, but Spain will maintain possession. Xantal Gine in towards

:38:00.:38:14.

the circle. Comerma thinks about the best course of action now, inside

:38:15.:38:19.

the final 60 seconds of the half, Spain rebuilds down the left. Lily

:38:20.:38:40.

Owsley on the charge, Shona McCallin ahead of her, Owsley all the way,

:38:41.:38:47.

cannot find McCallin, and with 15 seconds left on the clock, that

:38:48.:38:51.

might be Great Britain's last opportunity of the half. An

:38:52.:38:58.

outstanding half of hockey from the British team, three goals from

:38:59.:39:01.

Georgie Twigg, Helen Richardson-Walsh and Lily Owsley,

:39:02.:39:05.

and at the half-time hooter Great Britain have a comfortable lead. GB

:39:06.:39:09.

3, Spain 0. DAN WALKER: We will continue to

:39:10.:39:16.

watch this in the second half, very comfortable for Team GB in that

:39:17.:39:19.

first half, down to pitch side to get some reaction with Katherine

:39:20.:39:23.

Downes, who was with Simon Mason. Yes, standing right next to me, you

:39:24.:39:28.

said, as we were watching the closing stages of the first-half, if

:39:29.:39:32.

Great Britain could get a third, it would move the match out of Spain's

:39:33.:39:36.

reach, Spain coming back from that? I cannot see it, they would have to

:39:37.:39:44.

get a really early goal in the second half. When it is just two, a

:39:45.:39:47.

defensive lapse from GB could give them some momentum, but they have

:39:48.:39:52.

not shown they can score many goals against a world-class team like GB.

:39:53.:39:56.

What do you say to Great Britain in a changing room now in a half-time

:39:57.:40:00.

talk? You cannot let the pressure drop, led Spain getaway on the

:40:01.:40:04.

break, what do you say to the girls? Pretty much what you say, it is all

:40:05.:40:10.

about the speed, all about the teams speed, just maintaining the momentum

:40:11.:40:13.

throughout the course of the next half, do not give Spain even a sniff

:40:14.:40:18.

of an opportunity. We will be tuning in for the rest in a moment, thank

:40:19.:40:24.

you, Dan. Lie buys yes, back for the second half shortly, but a little

:40:25.:40:28.

treat for you, advice if you have been a regular viewer, you will know

:40:29.:40:32.

that we have the magic of Maria a few nights ago. If this is the first

:40:33.:40:37.

night you are watching, this happened to us 48 hours ago, and the

:40:38.:40:41.

video has gone around the world. 11 million people have seen this, we

:40:42.:40:46.

were about to hand to the weightlifting here on Copacabana, a

:40:47.:40:52.

hen party came wandering down the beach, and the rest is history, here

:40:53.:40:59.

we go. We promised you some weightlifting,

:41:00.:41:08.

we're not sure how many of you are there, let's see what is going on,

:41:09.:41:12.

it looks like a hen do, can we have a look? There we go! A Brazilian hen

:41:13.:41:19.

party! They are clearly enjoying themselves. They seem to be all tied

:41:20.:41:25.

together as well. Magnificent scenes, maybe that is how you do it

:41:26.:41:32.

in Brazil. The bride! Here is the bride, can we see the bright? There

:41:33.:41:34.

she is. Come on, then! Right, now, this

:41:35.:41:39.

could be interesting... Allow! Hello, what is your name? My

:41:40.:42:01.

name is Maria. You are from Brazil? Yes, I am from Belo Horizonte. You

:42:02.:42:08.

are clearly having a very good night, all your friends are here,

:42:09.:42:15.

when are you getting married? In one month, September 17. This lot coming

:42:16.:42:23.

to the wedding? Yes! Maria! Maria! I love her! Maria! Are you going and

:42:24.:42:31.

do have an excellent night? You are getting married here? You are

:42:32.:42:35.

getting married on Copacabana? Yes, Copacabana beach! I want to say

:42:36.:42:41.

something for my husband. Is he having a stag do, a party tonight?

:42:42.:42:49.

He is at home. A message for your husband, can you keep it clean? A

:42:50.:42:53.

message for your husband, I hope he is watching BBC Four! English if

:42:54.:43:00.

that is OK. I love you so much, you are my love, love! What is his name?

:43:01.:43:12.

Juno. You have to think about his name! He has a nickname. And Maria,

:43:13.:43:21.

OK. This is magical, this is a special moment for us all. One last

:43:22.:43:26.

thing, we have some live sport, people won't weightlifting, or do

:43:27.:43:32.

you want Maria? Maria! Last thing to say. Last thing, my football team!

:43:33.:43:40.

Come an! Luminese! And you're getting married

:43:41.:43:59.

in one month? Have a beautiful wedding. Thank you very much. See

:44:00.:44:03.

you later, enjoy the rest of your evening! Right... Thank you! We are

:44:04.:44:09.

just going to wave goodbye! No, that is great, we are still

:44:10.:44:26.

live! We are on the BBC. BBC?! BBC, yes! Maria! BBC! BBC! BBC! BBC! This

:44:27.:44:47.

is lovely! BBC! BBC! BBC! This is lovely, thank you very much,

:44:48.:44:51.

goodbye! We appreciate the support for the BBC as well, Maria. You are

:44:52.:44:56.

getting married, no-one is going to call you, see you later! Your

:44:57.:45:02.

husband is watching out over! Thank you, enjoy your evening, lovely to

:45:03.:45:07.

see you! Well, that was a bit special, wasn't it? You don't get

:45:08.:45:12.

that on BBC One, do you?! Goodbye, we love you all! BBC!

:45:13.:45:21.

Since then, Maria has invited us to her wedding!

:45:22.:45:28.

Her mum has also been in contact, thanking us for making her a star.

:45:29.:45:33.

Millions have watched that around the world. She has recently joined

:45:34.:45:37.

Twitter and has been on Facebook, and she has a lot of new friends in

:45:38.:45:42.

many parts of the world. So thank you for that, Maria. Really

:45:43.:45:45.

appreciate the invitation to your wedding. Leave it with me. I will

:45:46.:45:51.

have to have a word with Mrs Walker. I will try my best! It was very nice

:45:52.:45:56.

of you and it was a pleasure to have you on the BBC and all your very

:45:57.:46:00.

rowdy friends. That is the first time I have seen that fell in the

:46:01.:46:04.

background! He was enjoying himself. Wright, day ten of the Olympics.

:46:05.:46:08.

Thank you for your texts and comments and tweets about that.

:46:09.:46:11.

Let's bring you up-to-date with the headlines headlines on BBC Four.

:46:12.:46:21.

Gold for Charlotte Dujardin in the individual dressage today. She and

:46:22.:46:30.

Valegro did the business. In the last hour, there has been a

:46:31.:46:34.

silver on the cycling track for Mark Cavendish of Great Britain in the

:46:35.:46:46.

men's omnium. So a goal, a silver and bronze in the hammer for Sophie

:46:47.:46:50.

Hitchon. Her last throw in the competition, she broke own British

:46:51.:46:58.

record and a 74.54 was enough for a medal. Great news for Marcus Ellis

:46:59.:47:07.

and Chris Langridge as well. The eighth seeded Japanese pair were

:47:08.:47:11.

beaten by the Brits today, and they are into the badminton semifinals.

:47:12.:47:21.

Right, we are going back to the hockey now for the second half. We

:47:22.:47:25.

will not stay with it for the duration of the second half, because

:47:26.:47:29.

that will be moving to BBC One in ten minutes' time. We will have more

:47:30.:47:32.

live sport for you after that. I know lots of people are saying we

:47:33.:47:36.

are making you switch channels, but hopefully you understand, because

:47:37.:47:39.

BBC One will take you the end of this game and we will bring you some

:47:40.:47:43.

more live sport on BBC Four. We will also have a nice wander around the

:47:44.:47:47.

beach at some stage. We need the bin men to come out, because we like to

:47:48.:47:52.

have that every night, and they are just setting up for the circuit

:47:53.:47:57.

training. Look, the dumbbells are out, the kettle bells are there. As

:47:58.:48:02.

yet, no sign of Antony Worrall Thompson, but if he turns up, we'll

:48:03.:48:06.

try and bring you the Antony Worrall Thompson watch. Now back to the

:48:07.:48:11.

second half of the hockey. And at some stage, we will let you know

:48:12.:48:14.

when it switches to BBC One and we will go somewhere else. Here we go,

:48:15.:48:20.

Team GB are three up against Spain. They qualified with five wins out of

:48:21.:48:25.

five in their pool. Spain lost their first three matches and won their

:48:26.:48:29.

last two to squeeze through. So far, Team GB are looking good going into

:48:30.:48:33.

the second half of this match. Let's pick it up again with Mel and Matt.

:48:34.:48:39.

COMMENTATOR: The second half is about to get under way, Great

:48:40.:48:43.

Britain now attacking the gold to our right. Goals in the first half

:48:44.:48:49.

from Georgina Twigg, Lily Owsley and Helen Richardson-Walsh to put Great

:48:50.:48:55.

Britain in command of this quarterfinal. New Zealander weight

:48:56.:48:59.

in the semis. Spain have a lot to do to get back in this match.

:49:00.:49:22.

Sophie Bray was the outstanding player for Great Britain in the

:49:23.:49:30.

first half, and she is at it again. Another lovely piece of stick skill

:49:31.:49:31.

from her. Probably the first time and again

:49:32.:49:51.

that Great Britain didn't know what they were going to do with the past,

:49:52.:49:55.

and Crista Cullen ended up putting the ball on her foot. I am

:49:56.:49:58.

interested to see how this team comes out in the second half. Spain

:49:59.:50:08.

have not had an opportunity at goal. Our Britain going to play

:50:09.:50:11.

differently? There is no doubt the New Zealand coaching staff are in

:50:12.:50:14.

the crowd somewhere. Quite's attempted shot is saved --

:50:15.:50:33.

some quite's attempted shot. Good to see the left defender up in the

:50:34.:50:39.

circle. Some quick flicks something at the goal and Lopez puts the ball

:50:40.:50:45.

onto Sophie Bray's foot. Susannah Townsend is on a real burst

:50:46.:51:04.

here. Sophie Bray has missed out this

:51:05.:51:17.

time. A big collision between Kate

:51:18.:51:34.

Richardson-Walsh and one of the Spanish players. She is down and a

:51:35.:51:46.

little hurt, I think. Great strength by Kate Richardson-Walsh. You OK?

:51:47.:51:59.

The two captains clashed on the field. Played against each other for

:52:00.:52:00.

a long time. A bit of creativity potentially here

:52:01.:52:17.

for Great Britain. Great Britain have known when they

:52:18.:53:14.

need to play the ball forwards and when they need to keep possession

:53:15.:53:15.

and move the ball around the back. Shona McCallin will sit it out for a

:53:16.:53:40.

couple of minutes. Spain are camped out on the edge of

:53:41.:54:33.

the circle right now. Spain have their first penalty corner of the

:54:34.:54:34.

game. But it is being referred. The

:54:35.:54:56.

penalty corner was awarded, but it is heading up to the video umpire

:54:57.:55:02.

now. Great Britain are saying it was too high on Crista Cullen. It has

:55:03.:55:15.

actually hit the stick. From that angle, it looked like it hit Crista

:55:16.:55:20.

Cullen's stick. It was a good referral by Great Britain.

:55:21.:55:33.

No foot, no danger. So, the initial decision is overturned. There is no

:55:34.:55:51.

penalty corner for Spain. Great Britain keep their video referral.

:55:52.:56:15.

Maybe Maddie Hinch will be called in for the first time for a serious

:56:16.:56:38.

role. DAN WALKER: now, we gave you the

:56:39.:56:54.

warning on this one. We are going to leave the hockey at this point on

:56:55.:56:58.

BBC Four, with Team GB looking good to make it through to the

:56:59.:57:01.

semifinals, where they will play New Zealand. If you switch over right

:57:02.:57:07.

now, the match continues on BBC One. Sorry to do that to do, but we are

:57:08.:57:11.

going to stay here and show you a cracking badminton match in the

:57:12.:57:15.

men's singles round of 16. Rajiv Ouseph is in the Olympics knockout

:57:16.:57:19.

stages for the first time, taking on the seventh seed, Tommy Sugiarto of

:57:20.:57:28.

Indonesia. The British number one, Ouseph, is seeded 13. They have met

:57:29.:57:32.

each other five times but he has yet to beat the Indian nation. Let's

:57:33.:57:36.

pick this up at the start of the match with Simon Reade and Paul

:57:37.:57:38.

Hand. COMMENTATOR: At six foot three, he

:57:39.:58:11.

has a really powerful smash, Rajiv. A silver medal bank of Indonesia

:58:12.:58:12.

fans behind Tommy. Huge smashing from Sugiarto. Very

:58:13.:58:56.

much so. He gets his feet well behind the ball and then launches up

:58:57.:59:01.

and threw it effectively. A real powerhouse, Tommy Sugiarto.

:59:02.:59:12.

See again, anything remotely misplaced, he is on to you like a

:59:13.:59:20.

rash. He has a lot of elastic energy.

:59:21.:59:40.

Again, you could see Ouseph making his way to his right. The net play

:59:41.:59:52.

is always critical in men's singles. The trouble is, when you lift a way

:59:53.:00:10.

to this man, he has been venomous overhead so far.

:00:11.:00:17.

Really getting stuck in now. This is as difficult as you -- Ouseph might

:00:18.:00:36.

have feared. Well played. He needs to counter.

:00:37.:01:15.

Yeah, very difficult for all who served to work out which way he is

:01:16.:01:22.

going with the smash. It is tricky to read, deceptive. Ouseph just

:01:23.:01:29.

trying to push deep to the forehand to open up the court space, but

:01:30.:01:31.

Sugiarto is such a good athlete. This, the best rally of the match.

:01:32.:02:12.

Once again, Sugiarto takes it. Yes, 21-shot rally, and you can see

:02:13.:02:17.

already he has got ninjas speed, Tommy Sugiarto, and he backs it up

:02:18.:02:21.

with very powerful smashes as well, so just a dangerous man, and you can

:02:22.:02:26.

see how he has reached a career high of three in the world. Ouseph has

:02:27.:02:32.

been as high as 11. He gave it so much variety in that last point, but

:02:33.:02:34.

he came out the wrong end. Sugiarto is pushing Ouseph around

:02:35.:03:04.

all corners of the court. Yes, he has got real position, taking the

:03:05.:03:08.

time and space away from Rajiv, and that is why he is flustered, he is

:03:09.:03:12.

under time pressure a lot against Sugiarto.

:03:13.:03:26.

Time and time again, that smashes -- smash is counting. It was close for

:03:27.:03:40.

a while, 2-2 at one stage, but now 9-3 four -- for Sugiarto.

:03:41.:04:10.

Yes, very well played, what a gruelling rally, though, for Ouseph,

:04:11.:04:18.

but under pressure time after time. Showing a lot of character, Rajiv,

:04:19.:04:26.

just to hang in, deal with those precision strikes from the

:04:27.:04:27.

Indonesian very effectively. Well, he has challenged this call,

:04:28.:04:55.

but one of the outstanding features of Sugiarto's game, on the evidence

:04:56.:05:02.

what we have seen, is that he is so quick to retrieve some of those

:05:03.:05:06.

clear Xander lifts from Ouseph, get back with explosive movement and

:05:07.:05:09.

takes advantage more often than not. -- clears and lifts. So challenge

:05:10.:05:23.

unsuccessful, then, the call stands. Huge Davis as for British badminton,

:05:24.:05:30.

Langridge and Ellis making it through to the semifinals of the

:05:31.:05:42.

men's doubles, beating Endo and Hayakawa in straight games, the

:05:43.:05:46.

first semifinalist for Britain since 2004. That was Gail Emms and Nathan

:05:47.:05:56.

Robertson. That match will be played tomorrow morning, so a bit of a

:05:57.:06:07.

revival here for Ouseph. So the game getting a little bit more

:06:08.:06:12.

competitive. A run of three points for Rajiv, which delights the

:06:13.:06:19.

audience, I am sure. He is losing concentration at the moment,

:06:20.:06:21.

Sugiarto. Haemorrhaging points very quickly. The lead is just one.

:06:22.:06:59.

What a super rally from Ouseph, five points in a row, 9-9. It was a

:07:00.:07:11.

terrific tight shot here that got the short lived away, and Ouseph

:07:12.:07:13.

punished it. -- short lift. What a gruelling rally, but again it

:07:14.:08:12.

is Ouseph who stays with it, defends well, at tax well, and he is in

:08:13.:08:20.

front. -- attacks. Absolutely brilliant from Ouseph, a lung

:08:21.:08:23.

buster, that one. Well, it seems inconceivable that

:08:24.:08:38.

this would happen, seven points in a row for Rajiv Ouseph, who was being

:08:39.:08:40.

comprehensively outplayed. Something ignited within him, he was

:08:41.:09:01.

able to stay with the big shots, defend well, and then no longer

:09:02.:09:06.

being dictated to. I think that coupled with a slight lapse in

:09:07.:09:11.

concentration from Sugiarto, it had almost been too easy from the start,

:09:12.:09:16.

and he went walkies with his mindset. Some kind of distraction, I

:09:17.:09:21.

don't know, but real credit to Rajiv Ouseph for turning this opening game

:09:22.:09:26.

around against this man who we has never won a single game against in

:09:27.:09:32.

five showings. It would be a terrific day for British badminton

:09:33.:09:33.

if you were able to wriggle away. Well, at last the run of points,

:09:34.:10:18.

whatever it was, stands at eight. And he is playing as if he cannot

:10:19.:10:57.

believe what is happening, Sugiarto. You have to credit Ouseph for his

:10:58.:11:02.

concentration powers and ability to just, well, the stickability,

:11:03.:11:09.

frankly. He is directing most of this traffic towards the forehand of

:11:10.:11:11.

the Indonesian. Well, there, finally, the run of

:11:12.:11:32.

points come to an end after nine successive points for the Brit.

:11:33.:11:50.

And one of the standout features from the first half of the game, if

:11:51.:11:58.

you like, is the fact that the Indonesian, Sugiarto, is power

:11:59.:12:01.

smashing time and again, but not so now, he has been denied that.

:12:02.:12:06.

Playing a lot of tight net shots, keeping the shuttle lower more

:12:07.:12:13.

regularly. Again, Sugiarto is looking for the shuttle to come to

:12:14.:12:19.

his forehand, totally nonplussed, and now it is a five-point lead for

:12:20.:12:29.

Rajiv Ouseph. I remember at one stage Sugiarto led by six. It has

:12:30.:12:39.

been quite a miraculous turnaround, hasn't it? But can you put this game

:12:40.:12:41.

to bed? Well, it shows the lack of

:12:42.:13:04.

concentration going on here. Just desperate to sort of callable any

:13:05.:13:08.

way he can, he sort of over prisoners, snatchers at that one. --

:13:09.:13:15.

draw level. He looked so rhythmic earlier on, not any longer, he has

:13:16.:13:22.

really been put out of his stride. And that one was way wide. Well, he

:13:23.:13:26.

has decided to go with the aggressive legs as well, trying to

:13:27.:13:36.

rush Ouseph by closing down the net quickly, but Ouseph has all the

:13:37.:13:38.

answers. Writes and there is almost a

:13:39.:13:48.

nonchalance and a lackadaisical feel to this man at the moment. Well, he

:13:49.:13:57.

is mentally out of it, it seems. He was 9-3 down? Yeah, it might have

:13:58.:13:59.

even been 9-2, possibly. Didn't he get out of danger well

:14:00.:14:32.

there? That is how good he is, how dangerous he is, but we haven't seen

:14:33.:14:35.

much of that since the early stages of the game. Ouseph still three

:14:36.:14:42.

points away from his first ever win of a game against Sugiarto.

:14:43.:15:00.

You can see, he wasn't that bothered! One seesaw Ouseph reach up

:15:01.:15:07.

for the smash, he gave it away. -- once he saw. Two points from the

:15:08.:15:12.

opening game. So seven game points for Rajiv

:15:13.:15:26.

Ouseph. That wasn't a great effort from

:15:27.:15:54.

Tommy Sugiarto. We will expect more from him in the second game. But

:15:55.:15:58.

credit to Ouseph, he turned it around. It was almost an implosion,

:15:59.:16:03.

like Sugiarto was too cool for school. Very unusual. This is the

:16:04.:16:09.

Olympic Games. I am sure he will want to put his best foot forward

:16:10.:16:14.

now. He is a controversial character in Indonesia. His father won the

:16:15.:16:19.

world title in 1983, and he himself has had differences of opinion with

:16:20.:16:24.

the badminton Association in Indonesia. In the end, he withdrew

:16:25.:16:30.

from the national squad in January of 2015, saying he wasn't getting

:16:31.:16:34.

enough is no attention, and he was out for a year. But obviously, the

:16:35.:16:38.

law of the Olympics made them kiss and make up and he was selected

:16:39.:16:43.

again this February for the Asian Championships, got a quarterfinal

:16:44.:16:46.

place and here he is in the Olympics. Yes, it is a strange draw.

:16:47.:16:55.

He is a complex man. We saw it all in that opening game. Utter

:16:56.:16:58.

brilliance for the first four minutes, and then nothing much else.

:16:59.:17:07.

He has got to get his act together, otherwise this will be the winner of

:17:08.:17:10.

Rajiv Ouseph's career. Couldn't agree more. Ouseph has shown real

:17:11.:17:18.

discipline, focus on attitude and application. Julian Robertson will

:17:19.:17:24.

have studied the video footage of Sugiarto. They will have done their

:17:25.:17:29.

homework. Everything is going swimmingly for the man in red.

:17:30.:17:35.

Biggest occasion for him, runner-up in the European Championships in

:17:36.:17:45.

Kazan a couple of years ago. And in the Olympics in London, he was out

:17:46.:17:49.

in the group stages. Here, he is through his group and here's a game

:17:50.:17:54.

away from the quarterfinal. So it will be Ouseph to begin.

:17:55.:18:11.

You imagine that if this man can accelerate away with a decent start,

:18:12.:18:19.

you might see Sugiarto getting disinterested again. But suddenly,

:18:20.:18:23.

his interest is piqued and he is off to a flyer.

:18:24.:18:52.

No challenge. Must have been very close indeed.

:18:53.:19:18.

There is a renewed physical and mental application now from

:19:19.:19:21.

Sugiarto. The job for Ouseph is to stay with

:19:22.:19:36.

him. We saw the mental fragility in the opening game. It may reappear.

:19:37.:19:41.

Unlikely, but you never know. Way wide. It has taken him 11 games

:19:42.:20:01.

and five and a half matches to win his first game against Sugiarto, so

:20:02.:20:02.

why not a second? There is no doubting his talent, but

:20:03.:20:22.

the state of mind is a little wishy-washy and flaky at the moment.

:20:23.:20:28.

Rajiv is desperately trying to stay in touch here and turn this second

:20:29.:20:41.

game around. Sugiarto opening up a 3-point cushion.

:20:42.:21:01.

This is the kind of form we saw in the opening game. There has to be a

:21:02.:21:07.

precision from Ouseph, otherwise they get punished by this terrific

:21:08.:21:09.

athlete. Fantastic athleticism from Sugiarto.

:21:10.:21:37.

But it didn't amount to anything. Just when you thought he was back to

:21:38.:21:43.

his bullying best, it was a great cross net shot, but he didn't back

:21:44.:21:44.

it up. Great sleight of hand earlier on

:21:45.:22:03.

with that crosscourt from Ouseph. And he is still within two, staying

:22:04.:22:07.

in touch in the second game. He is such a great man to watch when he

:22:08.:22:11.

plays those really high-level skill shots. He makes the difficult look

:22:12.:22:15.

so easy, gliding around the court. There is a silky smoothness to the

:22:16.:22:20.

performer in red. As indeed, there is with this man, but he is a little

:22:21.:22:22.

patchy, in and out. A rather irritated expression from

:22:23.:22:46.

Sugiarto. Just too quick. It is a bullying

:22:47.:23:24.

body smash. Right at the pocket of Ouseph.

:23:25.:23:57.

He is doing well to stay with him. Some gorgeous body fakes from the

:23:58.:24:03.

Indonesian. Some sleight of hand from both men.

:24:04.:24:34.

Oh, how quick he was to close on that. What an athlete. Ouseph is

:24:35.:24:43.

looking really composed. He has lost matches in the past that some feel

:24:44.:24:49.

he should have won. But he is rhythmic and cool as you like here.

:24:50.:24:55.

And he is happy to extend the rallies. It has obviously been a

:24:56.:25:02.

talking point, to try and almost bore Sugiarto. His concentration can

:25:03.:25:07.

suddenly switch off. He has been very diligent in that regard, Rajiv.

:25:08.:25:30.

Often, the coaches pick up on something that perhaps the players

:25:31.:25:35.

can't, because they have been so embroiled with the point unfolding.

:25:36.:25:42.

The precision has come back to Sugiarto's game suddenly. Wonderful

:25:43.:25:46.

smash across the shuttle. At the mid-game break, everything is

:25:47.:26:18.

looking shipshape for Tommy Sugiarto. Can he keep it going?

:26:19.:26:31.

He looks kind of world-weary at times, doesn't he? He has heard it

:26:32.:26:39.

all before. You get the feeling he is very much his own man. Moments of

:26:40.:26:51.

utter brilliance from Tommy Sugiarto in the early stages of the second

:26:52.:26:53.

game. Has the bubble burst for Ouseph? Or

:26:54.:27:17.

can he get back into this second game? He is working extremely hard

:27:18.:27:22.

to try and do so, contain this man in white who is such a rich talent.

:27:23.:27:44.

He sometimes wants to finish off the rallies a bit too early, the

:27:45.:27:47.

Indonesian. What it in? I didn't hear a call,

:27:48.:28:52.

but it is noisy. Interesting that Sugiarto was very content to rally,

:28:53.:28:55.

not bothered about the length of the rally. And renewed physical

:28:56.:29:01.

intensity to that approach as well. He has got the bit between his teeth

:29:02.:29:05.

now, really engaged with this second game. It has become a pride thing

:29:06.:29:18.

for him. A switch of the point of attack, and Sugiarto not able to go

:29:19.:29:22.

with it. He is asking for the courts to be swept by the attendant. A few

:29:23.:29:32.

drops of water. It gives him an opportunity to race for the towel

:29:33.:29:33.

quickly. Well played. That was the look of

:29:34.:30:04.

the points we saw in the opening half of the first game. Commanding

:30:05.:30:12.

the points with those strong smashes.

:30:13.:30:24.

Oh, gorgeous shot. Yes, beautiful slice, just calving down the

:30:25.:30:28.

right-hand side. How did he get that out? Immaculate

:30:29.:30:52.

defence, there was a lot of chilly on that smash too! Quite

:30:53.:30:56.

extraordinary, how he extricated himself from that position, total

:30:57.:31:00.

control, back five points in the lead.

:31:01.:31:10.

Now it is all going the Indonesian's way. A terrific sense of calm about

:31:11.:31:23.

Rajiv Ouseph, he never seems to panic, just a few words from the

:31:24.:31:25.

coach behind him. Probing for the opening, but you

:31:26.:31:44.

could see that Sugiarto read him like a book there. Yeah, terrific

:31:45.:31:53.

perception skills and excellent athletic skills as well and close

:31:54.:32:08.

that out. -- to pounce. That crosscourt works a treat, dived by

:32:09.:32:14.

the net. It is Sugiarto by six points.

:32:15.:32:46.

Yes. Being mopped up at the moment, Rajiv Ouseph. Sugiarto seems to have

:32:47.:32:59.

an answer to everything he is producing.

:33:00.:33:07.

The combination of rock-solid defence, terrific intensity, good

:33:08.:33:14.

concentration as well, and power smashing, and he's just having his

:33:15.:33:15.

way, Sugiarto. He has kept buoyant, still trying to

:33:16.:33:37.

get the openings, pouncing when he gets them, but there have been very

:33:38.:33:39.

few opportunities. Really good defence from Ouseph, but

:33:40.:34:02.

once again Sugiarto too good. Darting around the court,

:34:03.:34:11.

gazelle-like fashion. So it has been a masterful

:34:12.:34:49.

exhibition from Sugiarto in the second game, here are eight game

:34:50.:34:52.

points to level up. Missing the reverse slice, spilling

:34:53.:34:59.

into the doubles tramline. Oh, the way it goes, two game points

:35:00.:35:34.

saved, but he has still got a very healthy caution. -- cushion.

:35:35.:35:46.

He finished the second game a very different contender than the one who

:35:47.:36:01.

finished the first. And after 39 minutes, it is one game each.

:36:02.:36:08.

Although British fans will not want to hear this, you feel like Tommy

:36:09.:36:12.

Sugiarto has the match on his racket when he's into it.

:36:13.:36:37.

FASCINATING ADVICE,, we were saying it was in Sugiarto's hands, but he

:36:38.:37:07.

doesn't believe that, he thinks there are just one to alterations

:37:08.:37:19.

that Ouseph can make change it. He is going to expect you to go, and

:37:20.:37:31.

you are not going to go. OK? Right? A very positive spin, better than

:37:32.:37:36.

the other way, that is for sure! They are trying to keep him afloat,

:37:37.:37:41.

but obviously be danger is that the extraordinary talent that Sugiarto

:37:42.:37:48.

showed in that second game, that should prevail. But you never know,

:37:49.:37:53.

he went away in the first game. It will become a real physical and

:37:54.:37:57.

mental encounter now for this man, who has got to extend the points and

:37:58.:38:01.

not be scared to just hang in and work so hard and give this fellow a

:38:02.:38:08.

little bit of time to switch off. With his net game, he has got to get

:38:09.:38:13.

to the shuttle a little bit earlier. He was giving his opponent time to

:38:14.:38:20.

pounce. So Sugiarto begins this deciding game. An emphatic start to

:38:21.:38:29.

game number three, as there was at the end of game number two.

:38:30.:38:41.

It is fascinating how the coaches were saying that, those Rusev really

:38:42.:38:52.

feel it is in his hands? Or does he feel a little bit in all of this

:38:53.:39:00.

kind of shotmaking? -- Ouseph. Sugiarto really has the facility to

:39:01.:39:02.

rush Rajiv Ouseph at times. A massive rally, but it goes the

:39:03.:39:49.

same way as the first two. Suddenly, you sensed Sugiarto is

:39:50.:40:24.

really engaged and into this. It is almost as if what went on in the

:40:25.:40:28.

first game, whatever happens, if I lose this game in a rush, I will

:40:29.:40:34.

win. It looks like he might be right. Still early stages. Well

:40:35.:40:37.

played. There is some quickness, some power

:40:38.:40:46.

there. Well, he had it, he had Sugiarto

:40:47.:41:09.

scrambling in the front court, the gap was there.

:41:10.:41:39.

Yes, really good. A lot of the skies, didn't know which way he was

:41:40.:41:47.

going, and despite that marathon rally, what was it, 49 strokes?

:41:48.:41:54.

Still smooth is Ouseph, still dangerous.

:41:55.:42:04.

And keeping it tight. He is doing well, injecting a lot of pace into

:42:05.:42:14.

the smashers, Ouseph, and that is where Sugiarto was scoring so richly

:42:15.:42:22.

at the start of the match himself. Oh! Another string gone. Fortunate

:42:23.:42:30.

that he did not have to play another shot. The players will all be

:42:31.:42:36.

carrying between eight and 12 rackets in their bag anyway, so

:42:37.:42:41.

plenty left. There is an army of string is, of course, behind the

:42:42.:42:45.

scenes in an event of this stature. -- stringers. Yes, careless. Ouseph

:42:46.:43:01.

just a point away. Yes. Fabulous shot. Yeah,

:43:02.:43:20.

anti-ratchet up the explosiveness and the movement, aggressive legs,

:43:21.:43:24.

get behind the shuttle well. -- and he ratchets up.

:43:25.:43:37.

He has lied and agile, but he is as strong as an ox, Ouseph. -- he is

:43:38.:44:00.

lithe. He's doing very, very well to stay with Sugiarto at this stage.

:44:01.:44:42.

They both look so silky smooth, but it is Ouseph of Great Britain who

:44:43.:44:50.

was making his move at the moment. Delightful shot there, just so tight

:44:51.:44:51.

to the net. Just out. Ouseph is reading him very

:44:52.:45:22.

well at the moment. Yes, he has got the patterns of play down to 80, he

:45:23.:45:29.

is a millisecond ahead now, Ouseph, and that is all important at this

:45:30.:45:30.

highest level. This is a very sudden change around.

:45:31.:45:57.

Of course, they are playing for the last quarterfinal berth, these two.

:45:58.:46:07.

Yes, on an adjoining court, the number four seed from Denmark played

:46:08.:46:15.

against the Irish competitor. A fine performance from the big Dane,

:46:16.:46:22.

21-16, 20 1-12. The winner will play axel some on Wednesday.

:46:23.:46:38.

You just don't know which way he is going to go. No, he is so deceptive

:46:39.:46:50.

and so powerful. He is a man of extraordinary talent.

:46:51.:47:09.

Beautifully controlled. Using his aggressive legs to take the shuttle

:47:10.:47:19.

as high as he can. Asks permission to towel down, and

:47:20.:47:31.

gets it. Fantastic skill from both guys. But

:47:32.:48:15.

again, the smash proves the difference. When he gets the

:48:16.:48:20.

opportunity to smash, he is winning the point. Yes, he has a lot of

:48:21.:48:25.

precision of directional control, with a lot of speed as well,

:48:26.:48:28.

Sugiarto. Very dangerous overhead. The time pressure is starting to

:48:29.:49:01.

increase on this man now. He is being rushed more often than not.

:49:02.:49:34.

Tommy Sugiarto driving the point now, taking ownership of this. When

:49:35.:49:41.

you watch the difference in physicality, you see Rajiv just a

:49:42.:49:46.

bit slower than Sugiarto, who is motoring along and really putting in

:49:47.:49:50.

the hard yards with a bit more foot speed. And it is giving him the

:49:51.:49:58.

initiative to take the lead. A wonderful slow-mo shot, showing

:49:59.:50:02.

exactly how tight he hits it at the net. So they change around. Can

:50:03.:50:11.

Ouseph call him back? We have seen the aberrations from

:50:12.:50:23.

Sugiarto. It is going to need some for it to turn. But Ouseph is doing

:50:24.:50:30.

everything he can. Absolutely. He is giving his utmost. He is

:50:31.:50:34.

lion-hearted, we know that. This is a tough man not just to stay with,

:50:35.:50:36.

but to contain. Both the men have been playing

:50:37.:50:56.

top-class international badminton for a decade now. But this is heady

:50:57.:51:07.

heights for both of them, even for Sugiarto, who has been as high as

:51:08.:51:11.

three in the world. He was a bronze medallist in the World Championships

:51:12.:51:14.

a couple of years ago. This is a huge match for him. Has he got what

:51:15.:51:25.

it takes to finish it? The opportunity was there for Ouseph.

:51:26.:51:47.

Well played. Looked as if he was off balance, but beautiful control to

:51:48.:51:54.

bring it down. Very much so. Considering he has been under so

:51:55.:51:58.

much physical pressure of late, that was wonderful from Ouseph.

:51:59.:52:28.

Just missed. He is going to challenge. Looked very close to the

:52:29.:52:40.

line. He hit the off smash really well, but I am going with slightly

:52:41.:52:45.

out here. Very close either way, that's for sure. A key point in this

:52:46.:53:02.

deciding game. Out it was. First challenge of the match. Or maybe

:53:03.:53:14.

second, actually. He is allowed another. Two in each game. Missing

:53:15.:53:27.

his chances, I'm afraid, Ouseph. It is a shame. He struck it

:53:28.:53:31.

beautifully, but just a half centimetre higher, and he would have

:53:32.:53:33.

found his mark. Really taking the initiative, the

:53:34.:54:00.

Brit. Still just two points adrift. He was taking the law into his own

:54:01.:54:04.

hands there. There was a lot of pop on that last smash. Brilliantly

:54:05.:54:05.

played from Ouseph. Now it is getting tight. The coaches

:54:06.:54:30.

were saying to Ouseph, keep it close and he may go.

:54:31.:55:02.

Brilliant, got onto that smash and powered it away. He is on top at the

:55:03.:55:12.

moment. He has missed a couple of shots, but he is doing mighty well.

:55:13.:55:17.

There is no longer the domination that Sugiarto had in the second game

:55:18.:55:25.

and for much of the first. There is a real chance for Ouseph here if he

:55:26.:55:26.

can keep this going. Terrific back-to-back smash put

:55:27.:55:42.

aways. That will boy his confidence. Sugiarto is not the force he was.

:55:43.:55:54.

Can he refind the mastery? On the line. It looks as if there is a

:55:55.:56:10.

challenge here. I think that is OK. Worth a challenge, though. In this

:56:11.:56:18.

critical period in the match, you can understand why he's going for

:56:19.:56:22.

it. He has such a relaxed demeanour, Rajiv Ouseph. So calm. But he is

:56:23.:56:33.

going to need to bring his best right now to come out of the right

:56:34.:56:38.

side of this. We have seen a couple of wonderful smash put aways. Taking

:56:39.:56:47.

a long time to get this review up. It is frustrating for the players,

:56:48.:56:52.

as they lose rhythm. Frustrating for the crowd. Just got the line, wow. A

:56:53.:57:05.

little bit lucky. But the coaches are right. It is on

:57:06.:57:37.

his racket now. It didn't seem as if it was going to be that way. Playing

:57:38.:57:42.

brilliantly now. Look how tight that was. It seemed as if that was going

:57:43.:57:52.

to rest on the top of the net. Nice idea, just caught it a little

:57:53.:58:10.

late. Credit to Sugiarto. That was a brilliantly played point.

:58:11.:58:45.

Comfortably wide. And the brilliance of Sugiarto is not holding sway any

:58:46.:58:55.

more. He has tried his utmost to rush Ouseph into error, but of

:58:56.:58:59.

course, he is being denied. Rajiv has played some really solid

:59:00.:59:03.

badminton, and he is yielding nothing cheap. Sugiarto looks a

:59:04.:59:12.

little uneasy at the moment. Ouseph, as ever, seems totally calm.

:59:13.:59:25.

It's in. Another challenge, and another important one. Challenges

:59:26.:59:38.

coming thick and fast now. Well, thick. Maybe not fast. It is tough

:59:39.:59:43.

to conclude whether that hit the edge or not. Very close. Brave to

:59:44.:59:50.

put your neck on the line. You're right, well done.

:59:51.:00:12.

Ouseph is edging tantalisingly close to the quarterfinals. Just needs a

:00:13.:00:19.

cool head now, and it looks like he's got it.

:00:20.:00:38.

Brilliant, we've been looking for that power on the smash for quite a

:00:39.:00:44.

while, and it does come in timely fashion at the back end of this

:00:45.:00:52.

game. Yes, right in at the right hip, he is two points away from the

:00:53.:00:54.

quarterfinal of the Olympic Games. Again, it is Ouseph who is taking

:00:55.:01:30.

the initiative, and here are five match points for the number 13 seed

:01:31.:01:31.

from Great Britain. Well, didn't he strike it well? Such

:01:32.:01:51.

a positive smash. It was only a couple of inches out! Still time,

:01:52.:01:55.

still four match points. Yes! What a way to finish it! Rajiv

:01:56.:02:39.

Ouseph from Hounslow makes it through to the quarterfinal of the

:02:40.:02:46.

Olympics. It has been a magical day for British badminton. Chris

:02:47.:02:54.

Langridge and Marcus Ellis through to the semifinals in the men's

:02:55.:02:58.

doubles, and now this fella, Rajiv Ouseph, who most people think has

:02:59.:03:04.

underperformed in his career. He hasn't today. It is a heady win for

:03:05.:03:10.

him, zero from five going into this one, but what a turnaround, so

:03:11.:03:14.

strong mentally and physically, just spiked up a little bit more power on

:03:15.:03:19.

that smash in timely fashion at the back end of that deciding game.

:03:20.:03:26.

Superb for British badminton. What a performance from Rajiv Ouseph,

:03:27.:03:30.

brilliant stuff, let's show you the draw for the men's singles

:03:31.:03:31.

quarterfinals. If you want to know more about Mr

:03:32.:03:47.

Axelsen, he is the current European champion. Let's find out what he

:03:48.:03:59.

thought of it. Rajiv, I know you are disappointed to go out in the group

:04:00.:04:06.

stages in London, how pleased you with your performance? I am

:04:07.:04:10.

ecstatic, to be honest, I didn't expect to win that game, I knew I

:04:11.:04:15.

was playing well, training well, just started working really hard,

:04:16.:04:21.

and it has really paid off. Have you changed a thing in the preparation

:04:22.:04:23.

to this Olympics that would have been different for London? I'm not

:04:24.:04:29.

sure, I think I just learned from my experience, it was high pressure,

:04:30.:04:33.

being a home Games, but being four years old has really helped me, and

:04:34.:04:38.

I have used that experience positively, I think, and long may it

:04:39.:04:43.

continue! Not an easy matchup next, the fourth seed, but at this point

:04:44.:04:47.

there are not going to be any easy matches. No, exactly, and he is a

:04:48.:04:52.

great player, he has been playing well. I be demonstrably long time

:04:53.:04:59.

ago, he is a quality player, I will give it my best. -- I beat him a

:05:00.:05:06.

long time ago. I know you have said on social media how pleased you are

:05:07.:05:10.

with the support, how much has it helped you? Even the Indonesian

:05:11.:05:15.

fans, the cheering really spurs you and, great atmosphere and here, it

:05:16.:05:19.

is like a party atmosphere, hopefully it continues to the next

:05:20.:05:23.

round. And what will you do before then? Chill out, I think the boys

:05:24.:05:29.

have got their what the final, I will support them, just prepare for

:05:30.:05:34.

the next game. A great win by Marcus and Chris, how much did that inspire

:05:35.:05:40.

you? Exactly, it is tough being two runs behind them, everyone thinks I

:05:41.:05:44.

am in the same round! They really spurred me on today, hopefully we

:05:45.:05:49.

can do that to each other. Congratulations, get some rest, see

:05:50.:05:52.

you soon. Just a reminder that the

:05:53.:05:56.

quarterfinal is Wednesday. We are dripping here, the water has finally

:05:57.:06:08.

broken through! Wednesday at 2:30. We will get Ore and a headlock...

:06:09.:06:13.

Hasn't stopped? Make sure that he shows you a bit of that on Wednesday

:06:14.:06:19.

on BBC Four. All of it, not a bit of it, the whole thing! Loads of you

:06:20.:06:23.

are getting in contact on social media, he is over that site now,

:06:24.:06:28.

telling us that you spotted Antony Worrall Thompson circuit training.

:06:29.:06:32.

He is trying to throw us off the scent by wearing a different top to

:06:33.:06:38.

normal. His usual green number, he has gone for a great number today.

:06:39.:06:42.

The sad news is, we try to have a chat with him, his name is Rafael,

:06:43.:06:47.

or he claims it is! And he doesn't speak a word of English. Which is

:06:48.:06:53.

really disappointing. He is off again, and the rain is really

:06:54.:06:57.

pelting down at Copacabana. Look at that, magnificent movement from

:06:58.:07:02.

Rafael on Copacabana Beach. I promised you we would try to have a

:07:03.:07:06.

word, but he is avoiding us, enjoying his training. We will bring

:07:07.:07:12.

you a bin man update later, I know a lot of you are interested in the

:07:13.:07:16.

nightly Bindra. The big news is they came early, but don't panic! -- Ben

:07:17.:07:24.

Trott. I was going to promise live be in action, but we recorded it

:07:25.:07:29.

earlier, we will show you with later!

:07:30.:07:31.

But let's catch up with the hockey, can I borrow that issue? Sorry, it

:07:32.:07:36.

is everywhere. We were showing you earlier on Team GB were taking an

:07:37.:07:43.

Spain, it was 3-0 up before we let the game go over to BBC One at that

:07:44.:07:49.

time, they were playing their quarterfinals, so for a place in the

:07:50.:07:53.

quarterfinals, taking on the Spanish side, so this is the rest of the

:07:54.:07:56.

action from that second half. A fantastic goal by Oliva, the

:07:57.:08:19.

number 23! Great Britain 3, Spain 1. She is the danger player, normally

:08:20.:08:24.

she plays the free player, like Laura Unsworth, but she beats Maddie

:08:25.:08:28.

Hinch on any opposed, she will be disappointed with that, no doubt

:08:29.:08:34.

about it. Possible lifeline for Spain, definitely disappointing from

:08:35.:08:35.

the GB perspective. Brilliant stuff from Team GB, six

:08:36.:08:48.

matches played so far at the Rio Olympics, they won all five in the

:08:49.:08:53.

pool stage, and now they have won the quarterfinal. This is what

:08:54.:08:57.

happens going forward. They will take on New Zealand in the

:08:58.:09:02.

semifinals. In the other quarterfinals, Germany beat the USA,

:09:03.:09:09.

New Zealand saw off Australia, and one more quarterfinal later on, we

:09:10.:09:13.

will show you that live in about 20 minutes, Netherlands taking on

:09:14.:09:17.

Argentina, and the Netherlands are the current Olympic champions.

:09:18.:09:21.

Reaction to that Team GB win, Katherine Downes spoke to the

:09:22.:09:26.

captain and Sophie Bray. Sophie Bray and Kate Richardson-Walsh, you must

:09:27.:09:30.

be very chuffed, 3-1, through to the semifinal. Relieved, Spain have had

:09:31.:09:35.

a brilliant tournament, we have played them I don't know how many

:09:36.:09:41.

times in the last year! We knew each other's game, it was just about who

:09:42.:09:46.

could capitalise. The old cliche, a game of two halves, you put them out

:09:47.:09:51.

of it in the first half, but you let them back in in the second. We like

:09:52.:09:56.

to give Danny Ings part-time in the stands! They are a good side, and

:09:57.:10:06.

they are... I am really proud of how the girls, how resilient we are, we

:10:07.:10:10.

stuck to the task and saw the game out. Sophie, your first Olympics,

:10:11.:10:16.

you had a belter of a match, you must be really enjoying it. Yeah, it

:10:17.:10:22.

is fantastic, to get to the semifinals, I can't wait to get out.

:10:23.:10:28.

Best of luck, back to New Zealand, you beat New Zealand for the bronze

:10:29.:10:31.

medal in London, that emotional bronze medal, and it is back with

:10:32.:10:37.

them, in the semifinals. What do think that is going to be like? It

:10:38.:10:44.

will be a tough game, any semifinal will be tough, so we know what New

:10:45.:10:50.

Zealand have, they are a fantastic counterattacking side, we just need

:10:51.:10:53.

to insert our game and dominate them from start to finish. It will be a

:10:54.:10:59.

great game. Potentially more at stake this time, can you feel the

:11:00.:11:03.

pressure ramping up? I don't think we'd feel pressure or expectation,

:11:04.:11:07.

we believe, just one game at a time, we are so focused we don't get too

:11:08.:11:13.

far ahead of ourselves. Thank you. And, best of luck.

:11:14.:11:24.

So on they go to take on New Zealand in the semifinals, that other

:11:25.:11:27.

quarterfinal is coming up next. I know it has just gone past midnight,

:11:28.:11:32.

it is 11 minutes past eight in Rio, and earlier today we were showing

:11:33.:11:37.

you some of the best action from the preliminaries of the springboard

:11:38.:11:40.

involving Jack Laugher, who won gold in the sink Rose springboard with

:11:41.:11:44.

Chris Meares, that seems like an awful long time ago now! And also

:11:45.:11:49.

Freddie Woodward was involved, here are their best dives.

:11:50.:11:54.

Now onto Freddie Woodward of the city of Sheffield and Great Britain,

:11:55.:11:59.

inward two and a half somersaults with pike, opening dive for Freddie.

:12:00.:12:04.

Fantastic dive from Freddie, really nice. Tom Owens at home, the City

:12:05.:12:13.

Sheffield, they will be glued to the TV, Freddie is doing a great job in

:12:14.:12:19.

training, let's hope he can continue. This opening dive is

:12:20.:12:22.

spot-on, vertical entry, hardly any splash. Freddie Woodward.

:12:23.:12:44.

Poll, tremendous dive from Jack! Yes, nine!, please, judges! This is

:12:45.:12:56.

bang on all the way through, unaffected by his first two dives.

:12:57.:13:06.

This is an absolute monster. Close to 90 points on this dive,

:13:07.:13:09.

excellent, the dive of the competition so far. Really good,

:13:10.:13:15.

Jack Laugher, getting into the groove now. 88.4, and he has got

:13:16.:13:19.

bigger dives to come in terms of tariff.

:13:20.:13:25.

Jack Laugher will do better tomorrow, we hope, 439 is all right,

:13:26.:13:33.

but he needs to do better than that tomorrow. Those are the top ten

:13:34.:13:40.

qualifiers, remember those points do not carry through. Agonising week,

:13:41.:13:50.

19th place, missing out by less than two points, Freddie Woodward of

:13:51.:13:54.

Great Britain. That will be 18 up to Zakharov. Plimmer so Jack Laugher

:13:55.:14:03.

has made it through, the semifinal and final takes place tomorrow. The

:14:04.:14:13.

final is at 10pm your time, so if you like to see more diving, we will

:14:14.:14:18.

try to bring you that tomorrow. I promised you an update on the bin

:14:19.:14:25.

men, we usually like to take it live, but they turned up earlier.

:14:26.:14:29.

But we captured it for you, here it is! Some pre-recorded Copacabana

:14:30.:14:37.

binmen, and we found out their names as well, giving as a wave. That is

:14:38.:14:42.

Pedro and Alejandro and Raphael and Donatello. Halfway towards the

:14:43.:14:50.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! Lovely lads, they come every night, always

:14:51.:14:54.

friendly, always doing a great job. And what they do not know is that

:14:55.:14:59.

they have become an important part of our coverage here on BBC Four, so

:15:00.:15:01.

there you go, the Rio Copacabinmen. cool head now, and it looks like

:15:02.:15:10.

he's got it. We have all manner of drips in our

:15:11.:15:21.

BBC Four kiosk! This is the first significant rainfall we have had and

:15:22.:15:24.

in all honesty, the roof is not holding up well. But we are

:15:25.:15:28.

surviving and we will get on with it because we are plenty more live

:15:29.:15:33.

sport to bring you. I reminded you about up three metre springboard

:15:34.:15:37.

final and semifinal. The at ten p.m., your time. Just to bring you

:15:38.:15:40.

up to date, we will bring you the fourth quarter final of the women's

:15:41.:15:45.

final shortly, the Netherlands versus Argentina, in 15 minutes'

:15:46.:15:49.

time. As we bring you up towards that, if you missed some of the

:15:50.:15:55.

action we saw yesterday on day nine of the Olympic Games, at one point

:15:56.:15:59.

in the afternoon there was a gold medal for Team GB every 42 minutes,

:16:00.:16:04.

which is staggering. And we were second in the medal table for a long

:16:05.:16:08.

time, behind the mighty USA and the of China. Andy Murray, the reigning

:16:09.:16:12.

champion from four years ago in London and the current champion,

:16:13.:16:17.

managed to do the business again in an epic final against Juan Martin

:16:18.:16:19.

del Potro of Argentina. COMMENTATOR: So here we go, best of

:16:20.:16:31.

five. 10,000 seater capacity, three quarters. There are a lot here, who

:16:32.:16:35.

have come here to watch Del Potro lose, it has to be said. Death by a

:16:36.:16:44.

thousand cuts, isn't it? The rhythm has gone from Murray. It is for-

:16:45.:16:50.

four. It is all a bit of a fight at the moment. He won what could have

:16:51.:16:56.

been a dangerous game. How quickly a match can change. And there is the

:16:57.:17:04.

set. 7-5. How brave was that of Murray? A huge pass, and Del Potro

:17:05.:17:13.

is back in this. Blow after blow, raining down on them. It is crushing

:17:14.:17:21.

power. Oh, yes, great skill. He has to take the second set, surely. So

:17:22.:17:29.

good. A huge shot from this huge man. Solid start to this third set

:17:30.:17:42.

from Murray. A rocket! No danger to the server so far in set number

:17:43.:17:46.

three. He has got what he wanted. Murray gets the break. Too much for

:17:47.:17:51.

some. Three set points for Andy Murray. Brilliant, Andy Murray is

:17:52.:17:57.

they set away from his second Olympic gold medal. -- a set away.

:17:58.:18:04.

Difficult to fathom, but it happened. Got the early break in the

:18:05.:18:10.

fourth set. Gorgeous, a mouthwatering shops to break back

:18:11.:18:19.

from Andy Murray. -- a mouthwatering shot. Del Potro gets three

:18:20.:18:27.

successive breaks. The torture is increasing on Del Potro. Murray

:18:28.:18:30.

moves in front and is fourth set for the third time. And out of nowhere,

:18:31.:18:38.

Del Potro breaks once more. What I lie Hart hears. -- when I am hard he

:18:39.:18:47.

is. I'll! Unreal. This is macho tennis. There is the break back. He

:18:48.:18:54.

is a game away from the gold medal. After four hours exactly, it is the

:18:55.:19:02.

gold medal point. Andy Murray is a double Olympic gold medallist. You

:19:03.:19:06.

have to feel for Del Potro. Could a man have given any more? It has been

:19:07.:19:13.

a fantastic evening. What an effort from Andy Murray that

:19:14.:19:14.

was. He has now returned to the UK, but

:19:15.:19:22.

again, double Olympic champion, the first man to win Olympic

:19:23.:19:27.

back-to-back tennis medals. Thank you for your texts and tweets. They

:19:28.:19:31.

have been flooding in ever since we showed you the bin man update. We

:19:32.:19:35.

have another one here which I wanted to read you. Alice says, hello, Dan,

:19:36.:19:40.

fancy popping round for a cheeky barbecue tomorrow night? Durham is

:19:41.:19:44.

quite close to Scarborough. We are not in Scarborough! People have also

:19:45.:19:51.

suggested Weston-Super-Mare and Whitby! And Grimsby. This is

:19:52.:19:59.

Copacabana. Can we show the big shot which are occasionally Copacabana? I

:20:00.:20:03.

know this doesn't prove it, but there it is. You can see it's

:20:04.:20:07.

reining. We are just at the bottom of that shot on the beautiful

:20:08.:20:11.

Copacabana Beach, which curves right the way round. We have another one

:20:12.:20:16.

from Camilla, who says, you are really taking this not missing a

:20:17.:20:21.

moment business to the extreme. Come on, Camilla, the real hashtag was

:20:22.:20:27.

Copacabinmen, you can get that right! Samantha says, I am still

:20:28.:20:31.

waiting for Antony Worrall Thompson to turn up. What do you mean? Where

:20:32.:20:38.

is he? He has gone! He's gone. You have got to be watching all the

:20:39.:20:43.

time. When he is here, we will show him to you, but he was here two

:20:44.:20:47.

minutes ago. You missed him. He has a restaurant business to run! John

:20:48.:20:53.

says, brilliant viewing from day one. From being used Antony Worrall

:20:54.:21:00.

Thompson, # Copacabanter. Thank you for that. John says, how have I only

:21:01.:21:04.

now discovered late-night BBC Four Olympics? Again, where have you

:21:05.:21:09.

been? We have been here since day one and we will continue to show you

:21:10.:21:13.

all the action. We have had some brilliant action. Let me show you

:21:14.:21:16.

this from the build-up to the hockey last night. This was probably one of

:21:17.:21:20.

the most dramatic finishes to any Olympics we have seen so far. We are

:21:21.:21:24.

doing the quarterfinals of the women's hockey tonight. Last night,

:21:25.:21:27.

it was the men's quarterfinals. We join it with two minutes left on the

:21:28.:21:31.

clock, and New Zealand lead Germany... He is back! Before we do

:21:32.:21:37.

that, Worrall Thompson is back. Just there. Raphael, hello! There he is.

:21:38.:21:48.

We've got him. Before the end of the Olympic 's, we are getting him on.

:21:49.:21:53.

Where were we? Hockey. I got distracted by an Antony Worrall

:21:54.:21:57.

Thompson lookalike. New Zealand were leading Germany 2-1, with two

:21:58.:21:59.

minutes left on the clock. COMMENTATOR: New Zealand have got

:22:00.:22:15.

the ball right in the German third. Nick Wilson is going to take it. New

:22:16.:22:23.

Zealand took too long and they are going to get a yellow card! For

:22:24.:22:28.

taking too long. Two of them! One has got a yellow. So Wilson goes

:22:29.:22:37.

off. Just the one card. A yellow for Nick Wilson. So New Zealand play the

:22:38.:22:43.

last minute of the half with ten players. The drama personified. Nine

:22:44.:22:49.

outfield players for New Zealand, in 11 outfield players for Germany. But

:22:50.:22:56.

the ball just wriggles away. So he will not come back on. He is for the

:22:57.:23:04.

entire minute and 15 that is left. This is pressure now. They have been

:23:05.:23:07.

withstanding pressure for the majority of the match, New Zealand.

:23:08.:23:16.

It was almost a danger ball there, but they have taken it quickly. He

:23:17.:23:25.

is saying corner, the other umpire is saying corner. Let's have a look.

:23:26.:23:45.

Lifted into the player. So, New Zealand have used their video

:23:46.:23:55.

referral. Here is a look at it again. It is lifted from the New

:23:56.:24:01.

Zealand stick. It is definitely a penalty corner. It comes from the

:24:02.:24:06.

New Zealand stick onto the body of the New Zealand. Waiting for the

:24:07.:24:19.

decision from Andy Mayor. There is no clear reason to change the

:24:20.:24:26.

decision. That is a penalty corner. If Germany have a penalty corner. To

:24:27.:24:33.

try and get themselves back into the match, to try and keep themselves in

:24:34.:24:35.

the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. This could be the last chance for

:24:36.:24:53.

Germany. Into the back of the net! Germany have saved themselves from

:24:54.:24:59.

2-0 down was that it is two goals from their captain. It sends the

:25:00.:25:08.

German fans into overdrive. New Zealand 40 seconds away from

:25:09.:25:11.

claiming a historic victory. The chance is still there, but it is

:25:12.:25:19.

going to be a lot harder. Do or die, and they are through. The ball goes

:25:20.:25:30.

as quick as lightning. This is what Germany can do. Look at the relief

:25:31.:25:34.

on the faces of the players. They have kept their Rio dream alive. The

:25:35.:25:47.

match gets back under way. Both goals came from penalty corners.

:25:48.:25:57.

Moritz Furste saved his team. No extra time. Stricter penalties. --

:25:58.:26:07.

straight to penalties. Now Germany are breaking out here. Only eight

:26:08.:26:11.

seconds to go, surely that is not enough time for them to get forward.

:26:12.:26:16.

Drilled in! With a second that the half left, Germany are in the

:26:17.:26:20.

semifinals in unbelievably dramatic fashion!

:26:21.:26:28.

DAN WALKER: that is truly incredible, isn't it? Well worth

:26:29.:26:34.

watching again. New Zealand in control. Just 40 seconds left on the

:26:35.:26:39.

clock, and they were still 2-1 up. The Germans equalised and then, with

:26:40.:26:44.

one second left on the match clock, they make it 3-2. Germany go on into

:26:45.:26:53.

the semifinals. Germany will take on Argentina in that semifinal at four

:26:54.:26:57.

o'clock tomorrow, your time in the UK. We will try and bring you a bit

:26:58.:27:02.

of that. You can see that the Kiwis were not happy. Devastated. You must

:27:03.:27:08.

be broken when you think, we are into the semifinals, we have a good

:27:09.:27:12.

chance of a medal. We have a great side. 40 seconds left, we can't

:27:13.:27:17.

lose, and they concede two goals in those 40 seconds. The Germans go

:27:18.:27:22.

through. The other semifinal in the men's draw sees Belgium take on the

:27:23.:27:27.

Netherlands at nine p.m.. Talking of the Netherlands, that is where we

:27:28.:27:31.

take you now for the fourth women's quarterfinal. I told you it was a

:27:32.:27:36.

bad night in Rio. You can see how all for the weather is. It is windy

:27:37.:27:40.

and raining. These are testing conditions for these hockey stars.

:27:41.:27:45.

We have the Netherlands, who are the reigning Olympic champions, taking

:27:46.:27:50.

on Argentina. After the anthems on a Seth Bennett and Aaron Murphy will

:27:51.:27:51.

talk you through this one. COMMENTATOR: Spine tingling stuff.

:27:52.:28:29.

The emotion, and how they belt out the anthem. But will this finally be

:28:30.:28:38.

the year for Argentina? So close before, but yet to ever get their

:28:39.:28:43.

hands on an Olympic gold medal. They may feel that this could be the gold

:28:44.:28:48.

medal game and should be the gold medal game. For them, it could prove

:28:49.:28:53.

to be just that. A huge hurdle to get over in the Netherlands, a side

:28:54.:29:00.

blessed with so much talent, a side that can take the game away from you

:29:01.:29:09.

in any area. But for Argentina, it will be about their front three.

:29:10.:29:15.

That will be the thing that Alison Hammond will have been most

:29:16.:29:20.

concerned about. Well, they won the gold real bad, but to be a champion,

:29:21.:29:26.

you have do not the champion. The Netherlands have two medals from

:29:27.:29:29.

Beijing and London. This is a formidable side. Coach Gabriel

:29:30.:29:43.

Minadeo played in the Seoul Olympics. The official is very

:29:44.:29:50.

experienced. She will be joined by the Belgian umpire. That is an

:29:51.:29:55.

umpire who has been fast tracked through. She has all the credentials

:29:56.:30:01.

to go to the top level. She has had a very good tournament so far. Still

:30:02.:30:07.

a good player, but here doing something different. Huge game, the

:30:08.:30:10.

Netherlands against Argentina. Carla Rebecchi gets the game under

:30:11.:30:23.

way, terrific atmosphere here in Deodoro at the Olympic hockey

:30:24.:30:28.

stadium, the worst conditions of the tournament so far, driving rain,

:30:29.:30:33.

gusty wind as well. These two teams have battled so many times in so

:30:34.:30:40.

many big games, and it will be a case of wondering who will adjust

:30:41.:30:46.

fastest. Van Male will put this one in, well controlled by Habif,

:30:47.:30:54.

eventually deflected out of the way. Jonker was lurking. And Argentina

:30:55.:31:00.

will get a chance to play out. When you talk about the conditions,

:31:01.:31:06.

blustery, wet, cooler than we have experienced that Deodoro Hockey

:31:07.:31:10.

Centre, and will substitutions and the use of the bench be something

:31:11.:31:14.

that will be a factor? Argentina have used hardly any subs, but the

:31:15.:31:20.

Netherlands have used 300 through five games, so the head coach is not

:31:21.:31:27.

afraid to use bench early and often. 40th meeting between these two,

:31:28.:31:33.

Argentina have won 11, 12 draws, 16 for the Netherlands. That was

:31:34.:31:34.

dangerously high. They are wrapped up to try to save

:31:35.:31:46.

themselves from the elements, but they are not going to be quiet,

:31:47.:31:51.

those Argentina fans, some of them making the 36 hour car ride from

:31:52.:31:53.

Buenos Aires to Rio de Janeiro. Free hit to the Netherlands. In the

:31:54.:32:15.

midfield area. An opportunity to try to turn with the ball, the

:32:16.:32:18.

challenges penalised, taken very quickly indeed. We are eventually

:32:19.:32:31.

going to see a green card here. The protests are absolutely dismissed by

:32:32.:32:39.

Habif. She will survey two minute suspension and the Netherlands will

:32:40.:32:42.

get their first opportunity to really attack in this game. The rain

:32:43.:32:49.

is absolutely pouring down here. You made a good point earlier, may be

:32:50.:32:53.

about Argentina not liking their round-robin play, as we look at

:32:54.:32:59.

Habif on the penalty chair, but sometimes it is better to have a

:33:00.:33:02.

weak games in the pool stages as opposed to when you come up against

:33:03.:33:07.

the Netherlands in a knockout game. Interesting to see if they can use

:33:08.:33:11.

some of that to knock off the defending two time champions. It is

:33:12.:33:16.

raining sideways right now! The playing surface for the moment is

:33:17.:33:23.

OK, no big dramas right now. The ball is brought forward by the

:33:24.:33:29.

Netherlands. They will try to bring this past the 23 metres line.

:33:30.:33:40.

The Netherlands considering making more changes here, as they do attack

:33:41.:33:49.

the circle, this is good play, neatly sent in and deflected over

:33:50.:33:58.

the top by Jonker. The coach rotating her troops already. It is

:33:59.:34:03.

that use of the substitutes bench that could be a factor, it is

:34:04.:34:09.

getting cool, it is very windy, left-to-right, so that is a factor

:34:10.:34:14.

for Argentina as this rain goes sideways, not dampening the spirits

:34:15.:34:15.

of the crowd at all. So skilful, she is isolated,

:34:16.:34:39.

Granatto, she battles away, eventually comes off Joe Ford.

:34:40.:34:43.

Incredible player, so good with the ball and the stick. Two goals

:34:44.:34:50.

already for her, and you see the running ability on the ball,

:34:51.:34:56.

attacking the Dutch defence. She will be swept up, but given away

:34:57.:35:00.

now, a real chance, what an opportunity, first goal of this game

:35:01.:35:09.

goes the way of the Netherlands! And the Netherlands have the lead here

:35:10.:35:16.

in the Olympic quarterfinals. A shade under four and a half minutes

:35:17.:35:21.

in, and the Netherlands find the net. Argentina have a chance to

:35:22.:35:27.

corral that loose ball, and Jonker capitalises, gets it to Welten, and

:35:28.:35:35.

Welten forces it through Succi. The second goal of the tournament for

:35:36.:35:40.

Welten gives the two time defending champions their opening tally that

:35:41.:35:48.

they so desperately wanted. And in these conditions, that is a point, I

:35:49.:35:52.

mean, as the game goes on in these conditions, it is going to be harder

:35:53.:35:57.

to see the ball, the pitch will get more waterlogged, passes will be

:35:58.:36:01.

slower, so that early goal is essential for the Netherlands the

:36:02.:36:05.

four conditions perhaps get even worse. Yeah, water beginning to pool

:36:06.:36:17.

around the pitch. -- before the conditions perhaps get even worse.

:36:18.:36:29.

Well, in the last six meetings between these two size, the team

:36:30.:36:37.

scoring first has won in five of them, so the Netherlands may take

:36:38.:36:46.

that. Van As lays the ball off, now the Netherlands will try to work

:36:47.:36:51.

this one around, they have time and space, no big pressure from

:36:52.:36:57.

Argentina right now. Paumen sends it forward, collected neatly in the

:36:58.:37:02.

midfield. There is Dirkse van den Heuvel, now Van As, great turn.

:37:03.:37:12.

Again, pushed forward with that, another decision which goes against

:37:13.:37:21.

Argentina. Naomi Van As will leave this one this time, though, and Van

:37:22.:37:28.

Geffen will move the ball forward. It is intercepted. Merino doing

:37:29.:37:34.

really well, options head of her. Then she is muscled off the ball, a

:37:35.:37:42.

shove in the back, penalised. Keetels was the aggressor. It is off

:37:43.:37:55.

the foot there of Bos. Now Merino sends it in low, it takes a big

:37:56.:38:01.

deflection, surely. Well, Argentina, it must have just been stick at the

:38:02.:38:06.

last second. We can have a look here at some aggressive play as Argentina

:38:07.:38:11.

look for the equaliser, you can see how wet it is, the Sabata coming off

:38:12.:38:19.

the pitch. But talk about big-game players, Welten has two Olympic gold

:38:20.:38:24.

medals in trophy cabinet, the former world Player of the Year in 2015,

:38:25.:38:30.

known as a big-game player, and a big-game goal from Welten to give

:38:31.:38:36.

the Netherlands a 1-0 lead in the driving wind and rain in Deodoro.

:38:37.:38:43.

Dirkse van den Heuvel, nice play by Van As, she takes possession back

:38:44.:38:49.

again. Very tall player, smooth across the surface. Elegant

:38:50.:38:52.

distribution as well. Intercepted. Good read of the play

:38:53.:39:12.

there by Habif. Nice spin from Merino, but the ball just holding up

:39:13.:39:15.

and then rolling away from her as she was turning. And it allows the

:39:16.:39:21.

Netherlands to come back in, and they can break with a bit more speed

:39:22.:39:25.

here, into the circle they go, good chance, the Argentine was in the

:39:26.:39:33.

way, Barrionuevo nearly put it into her own net. The driving cross

:39:34.:39:43.

required the defensive presence Barrionuevo to keep that out of

:39:44.:39:47.

harm's way for Argentina. It catches her foot, as she drives hard towards

:39:48.:39:50.

the line. Nine minutes gone, Netherlands

:39:51.:40:05.

Lemoine, Argentina 0. Welten's second goal of Rio 2016, a highlight

:40:06.:40:16.

reel goal, exactly what you would expect in this appearance. Look at

:40:17.:40:22.

the steps of the players as they try to sprint, losing their wedding,

:40:23.:40:28.

water spattering off page 1 at Deodoro Hockey Centre, and this is

:40:29.:40:31.

without a doubt the toughest conditions on either side of the

:40:32.:40:36.

men's or women's draw thus far in Rio. V did well to get that. The

:40:37.:40:43.

Netherlands able to force this one away. -- Albertarrio. And now they

:40:44.:40:51.

will build from the halfway line, just two victories through the group

:40:52.:40:55.

stage for Argentina, and they came in with such high expectations. This

:40:56.:41:00.

being a South American Olympics, they felt this would be the one

:41:01.:41:03.

where, all of a sudden, they would be able to get that first ever

:41:04.:41:08.

medal. It won't be easy, the Netherlands conceded just one goal

:41:09.:41:12.

in the pool stage, and when you are giving up just one goal in five

:41:13.:41:17.

games, you are a tough team to play, a confident group. Another big point

:41:18.:41:21.

for Argentina against the Netherlands is that the Netherlands

:41:22.:41:24.

have had 14 penalty corners against and they have yet to concede a

:41:25.:41:32.

penalty corner goal. When I say first medal, I mean first gold

:41:33.:41:35.

medal, just to clarify. They have been in the final before, they have

:41:36.:41:39.

got so close but never taken home the big one. Silver in London

:41:40.:41:42.

against this Netherlands team, they have a bit of history, so this is a

:41:43.:41:49.

classic quarterfinal. Ball stolen from Rebecchi, Van Male bringing the

:41:50.:41:54.

ball away one-handed, trying to use her range, takes it out of play, who

:41:55.:41:58.

wing span just a little too wide for the playing surface on this

:41:59.:42:04.

occasion. Julia Gomes restarts. Given it back by Barrionuevo, Julia

:42:05.:42:08.

Gomes builds this one. The passes easily cut out ahead of

:42:09.:42:29.

Albertarrio. Aguirre busy in midfield, finds Barrionuevo, two on

:42:30.:42:38.

one. Given a penalty corner, spotted by the South African umpire. Well,

:42:39.:42:47.

is it a penalty corner, that is the question, she pointed as if it was?

:42:48.:42:52.

I think she is having the conversation, she wanted to be a

:42:53.:42:59.

free hit, but magnificent skills by Albertarrio. Well, for the moment,

:43:00.:43:04.

it looked like Argentina would have a way back into the game, but with

:43:05.:43:07.

three minutes remaining in this first quarter, it is the dad should

:43:08.:43:17.

try to clear away. You can see the difficulty for Albertarrio, it is

:43:18.:43:21.

slippery, it is wet, there are similar skills that you might be

:43:22.:43:25.

able to employ on a clear day, but you might have to keep it simple

:43:26.:43:32.

here. It will make it difficult for defenders as well, trying to get

:43:33.:43:40.

them moving from side to side. Van As plays it forward, the defensive

:43:41.:43:52.

cover is strong but illegal. Van As will try to put this one into the

:43:53.:43:56.

circle, it is sent away, Argentina will get the free hit.

:43:57.:44:07.

Aerial ball, pretty dangerous stuff, and easy turnover of possession, the

:44:08.:44:15.

Netherlands take it quickly. A bit of defensive play by Habif, getting

:44:16.:44:23.

the stick right in a way of the ball before it crashed into her legs.

:44:24.:44:27.

Some essential defensive play, you do not want to go down 2-0 if you

:44:28.:44:32.

are Argentina, especially in these conditions. The Netherlands know

:44:33.:44:36.

that, they are working hard, trying to find an insurance mark-up. Long

:44:37.:44:48.

corner. -- Marco. The Netherlands want to take this, they will get

:44:49.:44:54.

another opportunity now. It is worked wide by the soggy stick of

:44:55.:45:05.

Paumen and out of play. That goal by Welten, especially at that time of

:45:06.:45:09.

the game, was huge, especially as the rain starts to come straight

:45:10.:45:13.

down with no sign of letting up. Her second goal, crucial for the

:45:14.:45:18.

Netherlands. And now they come through again, real danger for

:45:19.:45:19.

Argentina. They are saying they used the wrong

:45:20.:45:33.

side of the stick. This is going to be challenged. Holland looking for

:45:34.:45:47.

the penalty corner. Lisa Roach, the Australian video umpire. It is off

:45:48.:45:55.

the stick right there. It has got to come off the flat side of the stick.

:45:56.:46:03.

This is what is being protested by Van Male. Looks like they will keep

:46:04.:46:07.

the referral. It is the first penalty corner of this contest and

:46:08.:46:11.

it will be to the Netherlands. The fourth referral for the Netherlands

:46:12.:46:16.

in this tournament, and they have got three of them right. They only

:46:17.:46:20.

do it when they have do. It is the veteran leadership of the likes of

:46:21.:46:32.

Paumen. She is a huge threat, standing and waiting. She is an FIH

:46:33.:46:40.

Player of the Year as well from 2011 and 2012, two gold medals around her

:46:41.:46:45.

neck from previous Olympics, a vast wealth of experience for the

:46:46.:46:46.

captain. Another penalty corner. Are they

:46:47.:47:05.

going to lose a defender from the line here? 23 did leave the line

:47:06.:47:18.

early. If you are a Usain Bolt fan, in terms of sprinting, that is a

:47:19.:47:23.

false start and she will not contest this second penalty corner for the

:47:24.:47:27.

Netherlands. So much space for Paumen. She's the best the business.

:47:28.:47:41.

Paumen steps into this one, good save. It goes.

:47:42.:47:53.

With wet pitch, the ball can take all sorts of dives. But the

:47:54.:48:08.

goalie is showing some pedigree write-down. What a frenetic first 15

:48:09.:48:18.

minutes of this one. DAN WALKER: we shall be back at the

:48:19.:48:22.

hockey shortly. You saw how bad the weather is here. Let me show you

:48:23.:48:26.

Copacabana. These two gentlemen have just stopped by, Emmanuelle and

:48:27.:48:31.

Leonardo. Hi, guys! Emmanuelle has the rain cover on, Leonardo not

:48:32.:48:41.

quite. Enjoy the rest of your night. Two of the binmen earlier were

:48:42.:48:48.

called Donatello and Raphael. We are near the Teenage Mutant Ninja

:48:49.:48:51.

Turtles! We need to find a Michelangelo in Rio, and we are in

:48:52.:48:55.

Rio. Stop sending us tweets about the fact that we are in Britain and

:48:56.:48:59.

just pretending we are in Rio. We are BBC Four, serious broadcasters,

:49:00.:49:03.

and we are here to bring you the headlines from day ten of the

:49:04.:49:11.

Olympic Games. Gold for Charlotte Dujardin in the

:49:12.:49:14.

individual dressage today. She and Valegro, one of the most famous

:49:15.:49:17.

horses in the world, did the business and it meant so much.

:49:18.:49:25.

Silver for Mark Cavendish in the men's omnium tonight. Laura Trott

:49:26.:49:28.

still going strong in the women's version. But Cavendish get his

:49:29.:49:36.

Olympic medal with a silver. Sophie Hitchon picked up a bronze in

:49:37.:49:40.

the hammer. It was Hammer time for Sophie. Her last throw in the

:49:41.:49:45.

competition, broke her own British record. 74.54 metres to win bronze.

:49:46.:49:51.

And today it has been in the badminton. Marcus Ellis and Chris

:49:52.:49:55.

Langridge have been the -- beaten the eighth seeded Japanese pair to

:49:56.:49:59.

reach the semifinals of the badminton men's doubles. And Rajiv

:50:00.:50:02.

Ouseph managed to get into the last eight as well of the singles with a

:50:03.:50:07.

brilliant performance that we brought you live on BBC Four. Over

:50:08.:50:14.

on BBC One right now, in terrible conditions, they need one of

:50:15.:50:19.

Emanuel's rain macs! That is live athletics. We also have table tennis

:50:20.:50:23.

for you on the website and the Red Button. But we are going to continue

:50:24.:50:28.

with the hockey. Back to the Netherlands against Argentina, and

:50:29.:50:32.

back to our commentary team of Seth and Aaron.

:50:33.:50:40.

COMMENTATOR: Came off her knee. That will be an Argentina ball. It has

:50:41.:50:45.

been all Netherlands in the final third. We have not seen much of

:50:46.:50:48.

Argentina, just the one little chance. Here is Rebecchi.

:50:49.:51:00.

That will be a long corner. It is a bit better from Argentina. Yeah,

:51:01.:51:08.

they are not sitting back and letting the Netherlands have their

:51:09.:51:12.

way. They are trying to counter attack. That is important. In the

:51:13.:51:16.

first 15 minutes, they did not have much possession.

:51:17.:51:36.

Anywhere will do for the Netherlands as they send it down the field. Van

:51:37.:51:49.

Male chased her down a lost cause. An interesting moment for Succi. She

:51:50.:51:52.

realised she couldn't get her footing on that wet pitch. Big

:51:53.:52:00.

deflection. The rain definitely had an effect.

:52:01.:52:22.

Let's have a look. You saw Succi in that earlier sequence, trying to

:52:23.:52:25.

shepherd the ball away from harm's way, and nearly fell over. Both

:52:26.:52:31.

goalies will have to think about whether they want to Roman Josi Joe

:52:32.:52:37.

Schmidt 's. With that 1-0 scoreline, a trip or loss of footing could be

:52:38.:52:49.

terrible. When we talk about 3-D skills or the third dimension, it is

:52:50.:52:53.

when they get the ball in the air. There are now allowed to utilise

:52:54.:52:58.

that, one of the recent changes by the FIH. That allows the creative

:52:59.:53:02.

players to work in a completely different way. I saw Marino trying

:53:03.:53:12.

to exploit that earlier -- Delfina Merino.

:53:13.:53:41.

Massive collision. Time is going to be stopped here for the moment. All

:53:42.:53:54.

sorts going on. Both players appeared to be OK.

:53:55.:54:12.

Argentina will have to go backwards again. That was spotted by the

:54:13.:54:16.

umpire. The Netherlands may try and

:54:17.:54:34.

capitalise. Argentina get the get out of jail

:54:35.:54:53.

free card. The Argentina head coach's heart will be in his throat

:54:54.:54:58.

with goalkeeper Succi going for a wander. He still up and started

:54:59.:55:01.

yelling. I think the message was, stay put. But she tumbled again.

:55:02.:55:07.

Look at the pressure from the Netherlands. It is giving Argentina

:55:08.:55:13.

no way out. Habif turned in every direction and each one was a blind

:55:14.:55:24.

alley. This is an opportunity... It goes over the top.

:55:25.:55:38.

Look at the skill from Succi, turning the flat side of the stick

:55:39.:55:44.

over. She looked like she had the angle, but it is about three feet

:55:45.:55:57.

over the bar. Argentina come forward again. They finally have the penalty

:55:58.:56:06.

corner they want. Good linkup play from the two substitutes. The foot

:56:07.:56:20.

is off the right tone. Easy call for the Belgian umpire. First penalty

:56:21.:56:27.

corner for Argentina. Barrionuevo will be the danger. She will sit

:56:28.:56:40.

happily at the top. Habif will inject.

:56:41.:56:55.

There could be a Break the other way, but intercepted. As the whistle

:56:56.:57:04.

is blown, there is somebody down. And seemingly in an awful lot of

:57:05.:57:15.

pain. It might well become boy -- it might be Maria Campoy. Let's see

:57:16.:57:23.

this again. Did she get hit by the first shot? She might have. She's

:57:24.:57:38.

trying to get up and walk it off. She doesn't have many nights when

:57:39.:57:46.

she isn't busy. One of her biggest skills is when the chances come, she

:57:47.:57:52.

remains switched on. As a goalie, you have to be ready. You don't see

:57:53.:58:07.

this too often, a bit of sportsmanship. It is the Olympics,

:58:08.:58:15.

after all. Marvellous stuff between two teams that don't necessarily

:58:16.:58:19.

like each other after the last Olympic final. It will be another

:58:20.:58:30.

penalty corner. It is going to be another penalty corner. Van as may

:58:31.:58:40.

be in some trouble. You see the stick on stick. Intentionally

:58:41.:58:46.

breaking up the play. She knew she was never going to get the ball. It

:58:47.:58:51.

wasn't accidental in the eyes of the umpires. Second penalty corner.

:58:52.:58:55.

Didn't come off as smooth as they would have liked.

:58:56.:59:08.

Overall, I think she wouldn't mind 20%. It is not a terrible return.

:59:09.:59:31.

Naomi van as is impeded. A thankless job as that first

:59:32.:59:43.

runner. The Netherlands, having been on the

:59:44.:00:09.

back foot for the last couple of minutes, are trying to create

:00:10.:00:14.

something here. Argentina are just starting to find their mojo. It was

:00:15.:00:19.

missing, may be dampened by the rain in that first

:00:20.:00:33.

quarter. The surprise of the early goal. The Netherlands are much more

:00:34.:00:40.

active in the first 15 minutes. For Argentina, they have started to run

:00:41.:00:44.

at the Dutch defence, which is a good sign for their head coach.

:00:45.:00:54.

The ball slows, but not enough to give Albertario a chance to scamper

:00:55.:01:02.

after it. The pace has held exceedingly well in trying

:01:03.:01:07.

conditions. Magnificently. One thing, both the men's and women's

:01:08.:01:12.

team say how good the pitches have played. What a break this is.

:01:13.:01:24.

Stepping across, a penalty corner. Habif, a player down injured. It is

:01:25.:01:29.

Kitty van Male, she may have got one in the face. She reached to her

:01:30.:01:35.

mouth, you can see there. We will look at this. She is challenged by

:01:36.:01:45.

Habif. Off the stick of Habif, you can see the two coming up into the

:01:46.:01:50.

face. She appears to be OK, she will take solace in the fact they have a

:01:51.:01:56.

penalty corner out of that play. Caia van Maasakker and Bos. Naomi

:01:57.:02:09.

van As will inject. Bos, deflects wide, that was really close. A

:02:10.:02:14.

couple of the players thought that was going to lob in there. We saw

:02:15.:02:25.

the deflection. It is let fly by Bos, it deflected in front and here

:02:26.:02:32.

you see, they endured player, Kitty van Male, she is unhappy, she wanted

:02:33.:02:39.

a goal out of that, she took a stick to the mouth for that. The ball is

:02:40.:02:46.

down. Good play. This is a real opportunity. A second goal for the

:02:47.:02:49.

Netherlands! Tampon again. Her second goal --

:02:50.:03:16.

Succi. Taking an defenders, look at that move. She had no answer, it was

:03:17.:03:26.

touched in front. Magnificent strike, watch the hand eye

:03:27.:03:34.

coordination. It will be a goal for the Netherlands. They will

:03:35.:03:41.

celebrate. It is 2-0 off the magnificent play by Leurink.

:03:42.:03:46.

Definitely her a goal for now, her second one. She got flat-footed on

:03:47.:03:53.

that wet turf. Talk about perfection,

:03:54.:04:05.

Joyce Sombroek has only given up two goals. That will be the big thing.

:04:06.:04:12.

They have to find a way to get their attacking players into the game.

:04:13.:04:20.

Albertario is a little bit short, but Merino will take possession

:04:21.:04:26.

again, the short pass forces Argentina to scramble, they are

:04:27.:04:31.

off-kilter and not making the plays they would normally expect to.

:04:32.:04:37.

Leurink seems to have gotten under their skin. Magnificent, speed and

:04:38.:04:45.

precision on the ball by Leurink has them trailing by two. Too easy for

:04:46.:04:51.

the Netherlands to take that away. Those scamper in after that one

:04:52.:05:05.

again. -- goes scampering. Once again, the Netherlands will build

:05:06.:05:22.

this one. Paumen. Nice interception from Gomes Fantasia. In the

:05:23.:05:25.

midfield, the opportunity for Argentina to build this one.

:05:26.:05:32.

Albertario tries to hold it, it does not go the way of Argentina and once

:05:33.:05:37.

again, there are work, just not clean. Given the ball right back on

:05:38.:05:46.

the sideline, the past does not work out and that is not what you would

:05:47.:05:52.

expect from Argentina, especially at times, in their group, they looked

:05:53.:05:57.

sublime, they are giving the ball back to the Netherlands too easy.

:05:58.:06:08.

Nice in there. Just asking that little bit too much and it goes out

:06:09.:06:21.

of play. The rain has eased somewhat in the last three minutes but

:06:22.:06:26.

conditions remain a bit tricky for those players out there as Rebecchi

:06:27.:06:33.

sneaks down the line. Obstruction is given. And that is a green card

:06:34.:06:43.

given to 29-macro, she will sit suspended for the next couple of

:06:44.:06:57.

minutes -- Eva de Goede?. They have the chance to break with more speedy

:06:58.:07:02.

game. Uncompromising challenge by Gomez. The Netherlands are toying

:07:03.:07:10.

right now. They are toying with Argentina. Trying to break to the

:07:11.:07:17.

middle, great skill, this could be a big opportunity for the Netherlands.

:07:18.:07:21.

Having an amazing first half, taken away from her eventually. Welten

:07:22.:07:35.

Windsor back again. Eva de Goede will have two minutes on that

:07:36.:07:42.

penalty chair. Her second goal in the first quarter started things off

:07:43.:07:46.

and she could add to that total weather chances like that, running

:07:47.:07:54.

at the Argentinian defence. The Dutch are up for this, a place in

:07:55.:07:58.

the Olympic semi-finals, this is what they would say is their food

:07:59.:08:04.

and drink, the kind of place where they have made their names, made

:08:05.:08:09.

their living, made their country very proud at the last two Olympic

:08:10.:08:14.

Games. Can they do this for a third time? And to do that now, they would

:08:15.:08:22.

have to go through the whole tournament undefeated. Not

:08:23.:08:24.

impossible by any stretch of the imagination. She is getting a little

:08:25.:08:34.

bit of game time, she has found it difficult to get up to speed.

:08:35.:08:40.

Especially with Welten pressuring her and pushing forward. Also so

:08:41.:08:53.

time and space taken away by Welten. Strong running with the ball, zipped

:08:54.:09:01.

outdoor play. Ellen Hoog was chasing after it. Look at the marvellous

:09:02.:09:09.

dribbling skill of Ellen Hoog. Albertario is a very good player.

:09:10.:09:15.

Made to look flat-footed there. Netherlands, the winner of this

:09:16.:09:19.

gaming gets Germany and it will be interesting to see what Germany

:09:20.:09:25.

thinks of this start so far. Exactly what the Netherlands would have

:09:26.:09:32.

wanted. Argentina battle for the ball. The whistle blows for

:09:33.:09:39.

half-time and his side trail by two goals and the Netherlands have come

:09:40.:09:42.

out and played an exceptional game of hockey. We shall be back for the

:09:43.:09:51.

second half of that game. The Netherlands are leading Argentina

:09:52.:09:58.

2-0. The weather, as you can see, absolutely horrendous. It has been

:09:59.:10:03.

so bad that over on BBC One where there is meant to be BBC coverage of

:10:04.:10:09.

the athletics, they are making their way back onto the track, we think.

:10:10.:10:15.

It has been postponed, the weather is so bad. I am gripping onto my

:10:16.:10:20.

notes for dear life on Copacabana beach because it is rather grim down

:10:21.:10:24.

here as well. The rain we were showing you at the hockey has come

:10:25.:10:31.

to us as well. It is not backing up our argument that we are in Rio and

:10:32.:10:36.

not elsewhere. Thank you to those of you who continue to start those

:10:37.:10:44.

rumours that we are actually in Whitby, Anthony says, best play was

:10:45.:10:49.

finding the only Brazilian woman in Whitby and getting her to stage a

:10:50.:10:54.

hen party. Matthew Pinsent is not helping, he says did you get those

:10:55.:11:01.

crisps care of Mavis is a B in Whitby? Know. Thank you for that.

:11:02.:11:06.

Karen says, I drifted off to sleep and I missed the bin men, where were

:11:07.:11:11.

you? We might show you it later. Look at these guys, still going for

:11:12.:11:15.

it. That is proper Yorkshiremen their! Late night in Whitby and they

:11:16.:11:23.

are still rocking it in the beach -- on the beach! Will you please stop

:11:24.:11:35.

trying, the hash tags we have got going, are Copacabanter... He

:11:36.:11:40.

sprinted off earlier like Eric Liddell. Copacabanter is the

:11:41.:11:55.

hashtag. Also Copacabinmen. Stop trying to get Copacabognor trending!

:11:56.:12:09.

There were five gold medals on Sunday. Today, just one gold medal

:12:10.:12:15.

but a special one for Charlotte Dujardin van. This is her story of

:12:16.:12:17.

today on the Allegro. -- Valegro. Britain had never won dressage medal

:12:18.:12:40.

going into London 2012 but Charlotte Dujardin and her team-mates made

:12:41.:12:47.

history. She has done it. Charlotte Dujardin has iced the cake in style

:12:48.:12:53.

and Britain has got another gold medal! Charlotte became Britain's

:12:54.:12:57.

first Olympic champion in the individual dressage and won a second

:12:58.:13:02.

gold medal as part of the team event. Two equestrian gold medals in

:13:03.:13:08.

two days. Four years later, Spencer Wilton, Fiona Bigwood, Carl Hester

:13:09.:13:14.

and Charlotte Dujardin won team silver. All eyes have been on

:13:15.:13:18.

Charlotte to take the gold medal and retain her Olympic title in the

:13:19.:13:21.

individual event. Three British competitors were in the running,

:13:22.:13:26.

first up was Fiona Bigwood and they finished in 17th place, Carl Hester

:13:27.:13:31.

and briefly led the competition but went on to finish seventh. Up next,

:13:32.:13:38.

Charlotte Dujardin and Valegro. The great Valegro. Charlotte Dujardin,

:13:39.:13:48.

the reigning Olympic champions. Can they repeat their London triumph?

:13:49.:13:54.

Charlotte Dujardin, the great Valegro. Remind you that this is

:13:55.:14:05.

another Tom Hunt composition, specially designed for a Rio. He

:14:06.:14:11.

really has endeavoured to put the Carnival spirit in this music for

:14:12.:14:19.

the freestyle test for Charlotte. Here is the real test now, we are

:14:20.:14:21.

on. Looking steadily. Extended on the centre line, and

:14:22.:14:36.

straight into pirouette. They have been unbeaten in their

:14:37.:17:03.

last 17 outings. Are they going to make it 18 outings?

:17:04.:17:45.

It's a brand-new floor plan, remember. Prepared for this

:17:46.:17:52.

competition, prepared to try and retain that Olympic title.

:17:53.:17:58.

Coming towards the end. And at the moment, pretty incident free, dare I

:17:59.:18:06.

say? You're braver than me, I wasn't

:18:07.:18:25.

going to make any prediction, and like that this time. Again, that

:18:26.:18:31.

incredible extended trot. It looks magnificent, that correct.

:18:32.:18:49.

-- pirouette. APPLAUSE

:18:50.:19:10.

14 years old now, Valegro, they have been the stars of the sport

:19:11.:19:17.

worldwide now, since London 2012. Now, hold your breath. Hold your

:19:18.:19:30.

breath. 93.928! I had a tear in my eye in London when it all happened,

:19:31.:19:33.

and I've got another one now. I don't think there has been better

:19:34.:19:42.

dressage at an Olympic Games ever. Everywhere you are, stand up for

:19:43.:19:45.

this girl, Charlotte Dujardin with the great Valegro has done it.

:19:46.:19:51.

Lee McKenzie with the words there, and yet another Olympic gold

:19:52.:19:57.

Charlotte Dujardin, for herself and Team GB as well. We return to the

:19:58.:20:02.

hockey, it looks like the weather has cleared up a little bit. Still

:20:03.:20:09.

persistent rain here in Rio should did Junior wrote.

:20:10.:20:16.

COMMENTATOR: The attack right now. The ball goes into the circle, it is

:20:17.:20:31.

a free hit right outside the line. Marino will take. She thought that

:20:32.:20:41.

was inside the circle. Then felt it was a stick challenge. Stopped

:20:42.:20:45.

playing, frustrations of visible on the Argentinian layers' faces.

:20:46.:20:54.

Frustrations the tour. You have to stay on the ball down inside that 23

:20:55.:20:58.

metre attacking area, and not have words with the umpire. You shouldn't

:20:59.:21:03.

talk to the umpire this early in the game or any stage in the game unless

:21:04.:21:07.

you are the captain, and right there, frustration for the

:21:08.:21:15.

Argentinians. To refer tackle, gives the opportunity for Argentina, but

:21:16.:21:18.

they struggle to muscle the ball through the soggy outfield. But

:21:19.:21:24.

Argentina have a free hit, which they will take. Cavaliere, great

:21:25.:21:35.

skill. It is an opportunity to work this

:21:36.:21:58.

into the circle. Going into this game, Argentina had the best part of

:21:59.:22:02.

40 more penetrations into the circle, and that is all down to

:22:03.:22:06.

their style of play, the way they run with the ball. They want to have

:22:07.:22:11.

the ball on their stick more, and get their captain involved more.

:22:12.:22:20.

Working hard again, this is good play again, a penalty corner, and

:22:21.:22:25.

Merino got a stick in the air. There are asking, do they want to?

:22:26.:22:41.

She took every possible moment there to get clarification. She waited for

:22:42.:22:53.

the umpire to say, do you want this, as if she was saying, you are not

:22:54.:23:01.

going to get referral here. The first penalty corner, and it goes

:23:02.:23:09.

wide, they go straight to Rebecchi, who has had a slightly disappointing

:23:10.:23:16.

tournament so far in front of goal. 148 on penalty corners, now 149, and

:23:17.:23:23.

Rebecchi a very experienced player for Argentina. She has two goals in

:23:24.:23:31.

the tournament, looking for three. Habif, looking for Barrionuevo.

:23:32.:23:38.

Still the ball is there, and it is taken into the circle, but it comes

:23:39.:23:43.

off the leg of Merino, and the Netherlands get themselves a free

:23:44.:23:47.

hit. A couple of different looks on the third and fourth penalty

:23:48.:23:55.

corners. Barrionuevo swept aside. And some Joyce Sombroek, confidence

:23:56.:24:05.

is huge. Van Geffen, she is challenged

:24:06.:24:24.

quickly, ball out of play. The Netherlands, all of a sudden they

:24:25.:24:28.

are playing at a different tempo. They are 2-0 up, they can afford to

:24:29.:24:35.

do it. When they talk to the umpire, do they challenge? 30 seconds is

:24:36.:24:39.

killed right there, which could be crucial in the fourth quarter.

:24:40.:24:47.

The Netherlands will continue to push forward again. The pass was

:24:48.:24:56.

short, didn't quite reach her, and the reason it didn't quite reach is

:24:57.:25:05.

because it was stopped it legally. And now the Netherlands will go

:25:06.:25:09.

again. It is a good challenge, and this time, Argentina will get the

:25:10.:25:15.

chance to clear their lines. Alison Allen, she should be very happy with

:25:16.:25:22.

what her side have done so far. They have looked like gold medal winners,

:25:23.:25:27.

they have looked like a team who want to get through to the semifinal

:25:28.:25:37.

against Germany. Right now, Allen is trying to get further ahead to keep

:25:38.:25:44.

that dream alive. Here is Rebecchi, finally some space for her to work

:25:45.:25:50.

in. Rebecchi on the angle, couldn't quite find Granatto, and she does

:25:51.:26:03.

quite well, finds time and space right there, in behind, and for

:26:04.:26:09.

sure, just drifting right, just get the stick in on the right touch, and

:26:10.:26:15.

she can't get a touch. The Netherlands attack again. This

:26:16.:26:23.

is good, great running. off the foot of Rebecchi, and Welten

:26:24.:26:48.

plays it again, and the decision was that this is deliberate. That is all

:26:49.:26:57.

Welten. They are frustrating team Argentina. Look at the hands right

:26:58.:27:02.

here, flat side of the stick, and that is intentional, and it will be

:27:03.:27:06.

the third penalty corner, the right call made on the field. And the

:27:07.:27:12.

Netherlands looking for a fifth penalty corner goal of Rio 2016.

:27:13.:27:24.

Paumen to lead the Dutch. Paumen once scored a hat-trick against

:27:25.:27:31.

Argentina. Right now would settle for scoring this one, and they do

:27:32.:27:39.

get it! Kelly Jonker, right in front. She has been deadly from that

:27:40.:27:48.

range. And now surely they are building a lead that will see them

:27:49.:27:55.

into the middle rounds. 3-0 to the Netherlands. Fourth goal of the

:27:56.:28:02.

Olympic Games the Jonker, and you can see Belen Succi, the hit is off

:28:03.:28:10.

the foot right there, and it just sits so tantalisingly for Jonker.

:28:11.:28:18.

And that was a penalty corner that didn't go to plan. Rather than the

:28:19.:28:27.

drag flick, you saw the drive hit that shows the thinking of Paumen.

:28:28.:28:33.

But the wet pitch stays with it, doesn't panic, gets the ball back

:28:34.:28:39.

and creates a scoring chance. That is the experience, and the clinical

:28:40.:28:43.

play from the Netherlands, which is why they are the better team in this

:28:44.:28:48.

match right now, and why they are on course for a semifinal meeting with

:28:49.:28:54.

Germany. I think of Argentina now, if it is 2-0 going into the fourth

:28:55.:28:58.

quarter, you would feel like there is still a chance, but at 3-0, you

:28:59.:29:04.

have to start thinking about extreme measures, maybe pulling the goalie

:29:05.:29:07.

match earlier than you would have thought for a kicking back, exposing

:29:08.:29:11.

yourself the other way the counterattacks, something the

:29:12.:29:16.

Netherlands are so good at, so this is not a comfortable position for

:29:17.:29:19.

the Head Coach and his Argentinian charges. The Netherlands warned

:29:20.:29:24.

there about knocking the ball away. You might see a few cards being

:29:25.:29:27.

dished out here as this game wears on. The Netherlands so smart in how

:29:28.:29:33.

they will want to kill this game off, and they will use every trick

:29:34.:29:38.

in the book, they will push those rules, and they will see how far the

:29:39.:29:42.

umpires are willing to bend. At 3-0, you could do that, at 1-0, you

:29:43.:29:49.

potentially can't. The ball is centre forward, ruled it came off a

:29:50.:29:55.

stick. Strong challenge in there. But Argentina have it back again,

:29:56.:29:59.

but there is an orange forest that is putting an awful lot of treasure

:30:00.:30:07.

on. Albert REO, the pressure is brilliant from the Netherlands.

:30:08.:30:11.

Seven orange jerseys over the halfway line for the Netherlands,

:30:12.:30:15.

stifling any sort of break-out or counterattack by Argentina.

:30:16.:30:30.

Stop start move. Slowly but surely going forward, off to the races?

:30:31.:30:47.

Great challenge. For Argentina, then Rebecchi shows some strength in

:30:48.:30:51.

midfield. The ball runs off her stick. Von der Heyde, inch perfect,

:30:52.:31:03.

to get that wide. Tries to nip around the back. This is going to be

:31:04.:31:14.

a card here. A yellow card I think. Indeed. It will be a yellow card.

:31:15.:31:28.

Now she will be off for five minutes. This suspension will mean

:31:29.:31:36.

that at least 45 minutes, the Netherlands are down. Add great of

:31:37.:31:43.

running. She has had a wonderful game, Welten, both defensively and

:31:44.:31:48.

going forward. Albertario, careless with the ball. Giving the ball back

:31:49.:31:54.

to easily, Argentina and a green card to de Goede. They can go back

:31:55.:32:25.

to Celtic miss away. Sanchez. Puts this in with some speed. Penalty

:32:26.:32:34.

corner. Granatto was lurking, came off a Dutch body. Fifth chance on a

:32:35.:32:44.

penalty corner now for Argentina. Argentina five 427 in the

:32:45.:32:47.

tournament, looking for some success here. You would think that Noel

:32:48.:33:06.

Barrionuevo would be called. Sachsenring. She will inject. Noel

:33:07.:33:22.

Barrionuevo. It is deflected home. Huge moment in this game for

:33:23.:33:25.

Argentina. They have cut the deficit. And it is Habif. Noel

:33:26.:33:37.

Barrionuevo and look at the stake laid flat side up from Habif. Noel

:33:38.:33:44.

Barrionuevo with a drag flick, magnificent staff from 85 macro and

:33:45.:33:48.

it is a penalty corner goal for Argentina to get them back in the

:33:49.:33:56.

game. Her third goal of Rio 2016. Is that the start of the comeback, I

:33:57.:34:02.

wonder. It gives the fans something to cheer about. That five-minute

:34:03.:34:13.

suspension continues. Albertario. She is called back and that will be

:34:14.:34:23.

a free head to Argentina. It will be taken eventually. Gets it back.

:34:24.:34:38.

Spread to the left side. Naomi van As will leave this one. 3-1, 349

:34:39.:34:54.

remaining in the third quarter. Habif, a second penalty corner goal.

:34:55.:34:58.

They have to take advantage of penalty corners. Habif expertly

:34:59.:35:04.

deflecting the track flick for Noel Barrionuevo. Another goal here would

:35:05.:35:08.

make this very interesting, this place would absolutely erupt. You

:35:09.:35:16.

hear the Argentinian fans, they are bouncing. The stand on the far side

:35:17.:35:27.

would be rocking and creaking. Granatto gives it to Merino. It goes

:35:28.:35:32.

out to play but there was a chart on the sticks and it will be a free

:35:33.:35:37.

head that Merino can take. The challenge then. Van Maasakker. They

:35:38.:35:52.

go backwards again. Gomez centre with a bit more pace this time. He

:35:53.:35:57.

is not happy, you wonder that ball taking care of a bit better. He does

:35:58.:36:01.

not want to give the ball back so easily to the Netherlands, they gave

:36:02.:36:08.

the ball back to the Netherlands to easily in the driving wind and rain.

:36:09.:36:12.

In the second half, more aggressive runs and he does not want to give

:36:13.:36:18.

the ball back. They have a bit of momentum. Another card here. Yellow

:36:19.:36:28.

card to Naomi van As. Netherlands disciplines. This is a great chance

:36:29.:36:39.

now for Argentina, two players on the penalty bench, Naomi van As with

:36:40.:36:46.

a yellow card joining de Goede. Habif. Going to work the right-hand

:36:47.:37:01.

side, swept in. Bit of conversation here. Between the two, pushing in

:37:02.:37:10.

the back. A yellow card shown for pushing in the back. This is

:37:11.:37:14.

troubling stuff now. There is the push. Conversation here between the

:37:15.:37:31.

two umpires. With de Goede and Naomi van As already on the penalty chair,

:37:32.:37:42.

another yellow card. The Netherlands can clear away. It is busy down

:37:43.:37:51.

there. 11-8, three straight yellow cards and an advantage for

:37:52.:37:57.

Argentina. This is the advantage. They need a quick goal here and if

:37:58.:38:02.

they can make it happen, they have to use the space wisely. Now

:38:03.:38:08.

Granatto tried to play at. Did not quite manage it. Really good play,

:38:09.:38:21.

van Maasakker, brilliant defending. Trying to find the stick of Sanchez,

:38:22.:38:26.

she flooded with this three player advantage, you have to make the

:38:27.:38:33.

past. She is a touch player as well. One minute to go, 3-1, the

:38:34.:38:40.

Netherlands lead. The numerical advantage is with Argentina. A more

:38:41.:38:47.

good play a game by the Netherlands. Comes away with that, under great

:38:48.:38:51.

pressure. That will be a Netherlands ball that they will clear away. And

:38:52.:39:01.

this time, an infraction against the Netherlands, Argentina can move it

:39:02.:39:06.

quickly. 32 seconds remaining, Tibet inside the circle, goes behind. That

:39:07.:39:12.

will be straight off and Argentine steak and of the Netherlands get

:39:13.:39:17.

this ball moving, ten seconds to go, I would be very surprised -- stick.

:39:18.:39:28.

11 seconds to go. Takes it out of the air. That will do it. The

:39:29.:39:32.

Netherlands survive, they get one player back. The third goal could

:39:33.:39:43.

prove to be decisive in this, the Netherlands are leading Argentina

:39:44.:39:47.

after three quarters of this game, 15 minutes to go. We will be back

:39:48.:39:56.

for the final period of the hockey. We will see a benevolence can hold

:39:57.:40:03.

on. As you saw there, the weather is not brilliant -- the Netherlands.

:40:04.:40:08.

The rain was holding things up at the athletics and they had to

:40:09.:40:10.

abandon the session but they are back out and that is on BBC One.

:40:11.:40:23.

Here, it is time for our headlines. Charlotte Dujardin wins the gold in

:40:24.:40:27.

the individual dressage, she and Valegro did the business. There was

:40:28.:40:37.

a silver and a first Olympic medal for Mark Cavendish who could have

:40:38.:40:42.

been better, but he had a problem in the elimination race. Today, in the

:40:43.:40:47.

points race he came home with the silver medal. Also a bronze medal

:40:48.:40:53.

for Sophie Hitchon, her last throw of the competition and she broke her

:40:54.:40:59.

own British record. Nearly 75 metres was enough to guarantee her the

:41:00.:41:07.

bronze medal. And it has been a fantastic day in the badminton,

:41:08.:41:12.

Chris Langridge and Marcus Ellis have beat the Japanese pair and they

:41:13.:41:18.

are into the doubles semi-finals. And Rajeev is through to the last

:41:19.:41:23.

eight of the men's singles after a quite staggering performance. Over

:41:24.:41:34.

on BBC One and the athletic Stadium, they are in the midst of the

:41:35.:41:37.

Jamaican National Anthem for perhaps the most recognisable face of these

:41:38.:41:42.

games, one of the most recognisable faces in sport, Usain Bolt, who

:41:43.:41:47.

picked up the 100 metre title yesterday, potentially still two

:41:48.:41:52.

further goals to come for him, he is the favourite in the relay and the

:41:53.:41:58.

200m. We will cover those over the next few nights. Here on BBC Four,

:41:59.:42:02.

we will be with you until two o'clock and we will go back for the

:42:03.:42:07.

final period of the hockey. Here are our commentators once again.

:42:08.:42:29.

Habif. Get it wide. It is wide to Aguirre. Stopping and checking. Noel

:42:30.:42:45.

Barrionuevo. Spreading wide. That is deflected out in front. Netherlands

:42:46.:42:53.

ball they will whack it down the field of play. They are happy to see

:42:54.:42:59.

the ball far away. These two will know they will not be too much

:43:00.:43:07.

longer in serving suspensions. Very rare that you see three yellow cards

:43:08.:43:13.

so quickly, all in succession. The Dutch are defending brilliantly. You

:43:14.:43:21.

have to give them real credit here. They are facing potentially the most

:43:22.:43:28.

dangerous attacking side in world hockey and so far, they have given

:43:29.:43:33.

absolutely nothing. Now it finally goes into the circle, a chance for

:43:34.:43:39.

Merino. Danger could still be there though. Barrionuevo. Into the

:43:40.:43:49.

circle, pace, it is hacked over the top. That will be a Netherlands wall

:43:50.:43:57.

and an easy out. It is a team that is so dangerous, even with three

:43:58.:44:01.

players on the penalty chair, the Netherlands looked in control, they

:44:02.:44:07.

defended well. Argentina and their head coach will look back at this

:44:08.:44:17.

potentially as a lost opportunity. Another pass, intercepted and put

:44:18.:44:32.

all the way down. Van As is back and there is only one sitting on the

:44:33.:44:33.

chair. Interesting that the Argentinian

:44:34.:44:52.

goalkeeper has come outside and scored, perhaps getting words from

:44:53.:44:56.

the coach as to whether or not they will think about a kicking back but

:44:57.:45:01.

she has wandered up a few times to talk and we have heard the

:45:02.:45:05.

communication from the bench. A strong challenge. It is a free hit

:45:06.:45:12.

to Argentina, really good work, spinning this way and that way. Now

:45:13.:45:15.

Argentina again. Time ticking down on their Rio

:45:16.:45:22.

experience. Argentina will get the chance again.

:45:23.:45:38.

Can they move it quickly enough? That would probably be the criticism

:45:39.:45:43.

of their performance, they haven't moved the ball quickly. Adjudged not

:45:44.:45:47.

to have come off a foot. And Paumen taking every second, so

:45:48.:46:03.

experienced. You can't blame her, that is just good game management by

:46:04.:46:04.

the captain. Argentina with the Rebecchi. Pam and

:46:05.:46:19.

brilliant, clears away. If you are going to win three gold medals in a

:46:20.:46:25.

row, Yoo Won-chul captain to lead from the front, and right now, the

:46:26.:46:30.

most important player on the pitch is Paumen. -- you want your captain

:46:31.:46:37.

to lead from the front. Here it goes again, it is kicked

:46:38.:46:42.

away by Joyce Sombroek. Argentina look aggressive here, and

:46:43.:47:08.

a chance goes begging. Quick play from Habif, her second book denied.

:47:09.:47:18.

Argentina again. Under ten minutes now for the Dutch to hang on for

:47:19.:47:30.

what would be a really good victory. Habif goes on her own, but will now

:47:31.:47:36.

get some help. Spread wide, just about held in at the line. Pushed

:47:37.:47:51.

away by Naomi van As, and then they try to sprint away. Once again, the

:47:52.:47:55.

Netherlands warned by the umpires, get a move on. I have enjoyed this

:47:56.:48:04.

game. It has been a really fascinating affair between two

:48:05.:48:08.

sides, Argentina couldn't handle the Netherlands in that first half. In

:48:09.:48:15.

the second, aided by some in discipline, they have caused more of

:48:16.:48:22.

a headache. It has been that start to the game that will be remembered

:48:23.:48:27.

for sure by Welten, it was driving rain and they took advantage of the

:48:28.:48:31.

pitch conditions to try to bury Argentina early. This could be a

:48:32.:48:36.

chance, though, but it is swept clear. Good defending from will mean

:48:37.:48:53.

Bos. A clenched fist from Merino. Look at that, trying to rally the

:48:54.:49:08.

troops. Get them going. Under eight minutes, they are trying to do the

:49:09.:49:15.

same thing. Full credit to the supporters, it was a nasty night to

:49:16.:49:18.

start, but they have stuck with it, willing Argentina back into this

:49:19.:49:28.

contest. Barrionuevo and Rebecchi at the top. It is Rebecchi, and score!

:49:29.:49:37.

Merino tips home, the difference is one, and now we have a Grand Slam

:49:38.:49:40.

finish here in the Olympic water finals. The Netherlands led

:49:41.:49:48.

comfortably, but Argentina, byte by byte, I'm now back in it, and need

:49:49.:49:53.

just one to maybe take this to a shoot out. Rebecchi with the drag

:49:54.:50:03.

flick, and it is Merino's second goal of the Olympics, and what does

:50:04.:50:09.

it mean to team Argentina? Look at the intensity. She was the one as

:50:10.:50:14.

they got the penalty corner who was pumping her fists, and now they will

:50:15.:50:17.

get the help from the stands as well. The Netherlands may be

:50:18.:50:23.

rocking. It needs someone to grab the game by the scruff of the neck,

:50:24.:50:28.

and Merino states with serious intention that Argentina are back,

:50:29.:50:32.

and plenty of time left on the clock, seven and a half minutes to

:50:33.:50:38.

go. The Netherlands maybe we'll answer this after a period of

:50:39.:50:44.

sustained pressure by finding it in themselves. They get themselves a

:50:45.:50:51.

free hit right now. Wanting to take it very quickly indeed. And now,

:50:52.:51:06.

they are back to 11 players. What a seven minutes we are in for. Which

:51:07.:51:13.

way will it go? Are the Dutch good enough to hang on? Are the

:51:14.:51:18.

Argentinians good enough to score another goal? The importance of that

:51:19.:51:25.

Merino goal, you can't look past it, because at 3-1, you are thinking, do

:51:26.:51:30.

you pull the goalie, what extreme measures do you take? But at 3-2 you

:51:31.:51:35.

are in the game, and all the momentum seems to be with Argentina.

:51:36.:51:47.

And one chance is all you need. Agustina Albertario wanted the

:51:48.:51:52.

penalty corner, she begs and pleads, and now would be the time. There is

:51:53.:51:58.

a chance Rebecchi, they don't it fast enough, this is danger. Great

:51:59.:52:04.

defending again, goodness gracious me. It was incredible there the

:52:05.:52:19.

reaction from Bos. The time wasting measures from the Netherlands nearly

:52:20.:52:26.

cost them. Now Rebecchi, and Paumen steps over. Rebecchi tenacious.

:52:27.:52:39.

Pushed in, but off the feet of De Fina Marino. Barrionuevo watching

:52:40.:52:53.

from the bench for the moment. They have gone for a more mobile

:52:54.:52:54.

backline. Asking Habif, Gomez. We can see this

:52:55.:53:17.

again. This is something the Netherlands did all throughout the

:53:18.:53:21.

first half, attacking, taking big hit at the net, trying to make

:53:22.:53:27.

offensive plays. Another opportunity, and this time it is

:53:28.:53:42.

Jonker. Just caught von der Heyde, I don't think she is bleeding. The

:53:43.:53:50.

result of this is a penalty corner. Oh, that stings, the ball coming up

:53:51.:53:53.

into your face very quickly like that. You can see the Welt on her

:53:54.:53:59.

forehead. She is lucky that isn't worse. That will be like a cartoon

:54:00.:54:07.

bumper. The goose egg on the forehead. Another penalty corner for

:54:08.:54:16.

the Netherlands. She is going to try, and what they save from Belen

:54:17.:54:22.

Succi! Netherlands with a chance to win it there, Belen Succi.

:54:23.:54:33.

Magnificent goal-tending. Battling the whole time, fighting for every

:54:34.:54:40.

inch of that 12 by seven net. A game saver there. Van den Heuvel had the

:54:41.:54:49.

best chance. Could that be the moment we talk about at the end of

:54:50.:54:53.

this game? It has been absolutely crucial.

:54:54.:54:58.

Now we see the change. The shirt comes on, Belen Succi goes off, and

:54:59.:55:09.

Vonda Hyder with the goose egg on her head will be the kicking back.

:55:10.:55:15.

You have just taken a ball to the forehead, and now you will be the

:55:16.:55:20.

kicking back! Belen Succi will leave, this was always a chance that

:55:21.:55:25.

Argentina would have to take the goalie out, and now it is a reality

:55:26.:55:29.

as they fight for their lives. I wonder if she has ever watched In

:55:30.:55:32.

The Line Of Fire. Paumen trying to make sure that

:55:33.:55:46.

every possible angle is covered defensively. Argentina may choose to

:55:47.:55:55.

go along, the Netherlands are putting pressure on. It is a goal!

:55:56.:56:01.

And that will do it. Netherlands could be on their way. This will go

:56:02.:56:08.

upstairs to the TV. Netherlands will celebrate, but Argentina, as we see

:56:09.:56:17.

this one again, was this outside the circle, I wonder? To me at that

:56:18.:56:23.

angle, it looks like it is, as Gomez tries to get it out, and there

:56:24.:56:33.

outside the circle, but it is up to Lisa Roach, the Australian video

:56:34.:56:34.

umpire. So, the ruling was that it was

:56:35.:56:47.

outside the circle, just. Crucially, Argentina keep their referral, which

:56:48.:56:49.

may come into play in this final three minutes.

:56:50.:56:56.

Bos gets in the way. Vonda Hadar signalling that she is the one who

:56:57.:57:15.

uses her feet in the circle. Now they will try to use their skills to

:57:16.:57:19.

get in, that is a dangerous highball, and it brings the

:57:20.:57:23.

Netherlands free hit with two minutes to go. To give Argentina

:57:24.:57:30.

credit, they have battled for every inch of the pitch here in the third

:57:31.:57:34.

and fourth quarters, and at one point it didn't look good at all,

:57:35.:57:40.

they were trailing 3-1, and that goal by Dell Fina Marino, it has set

:57:41.:57:50.

up a magnificent finish. Barrionuevo has just come the field

:57:51.:57:53.

of play. They need their power players out there, and she is

:57:54.:57:56.

exactly that, as the Netherlands have done a great job here. Green

:57:57.:58:06.

card for Habif. She carried on playing, she had recognised there

:58:07.:58:09.

had been a whistle. She isn't exactly trying to waste time, with

:58:10.:58:16.

her side trailing 3-2. Per second green card, and a bad moment, she

:58:17.:58:20.

has been magnificent for Argentina. She won't play again in this one.

:58:21.:58:26.

Argentina battling. How good is that? In the end, the instruction is

:58:27.:58:34.

given and Argentina wants to get this going quickly. Agustina

:58:35.:58:40.

Albertario will try to use her speed. There is van den Heuvel with

:58:41.:58:48.

her every step of the way. It takes a deflection up in the air.

:58:49.:58:56.

Free hit Argentina. There will be a chance here. One minute to go. Will

:58:57.:59:06.

Argentina be good enough to take it, though? Another free hit. Taken

:59:07.:59:16.

quickly again. They are going to have to go around the top. Loads in

:59:17.:59:22.

there. They are thinking about putting it in early, it will work

:59:23.:59:27.

its way into the circle, an opportunity to sweep away, and

:59:28.:59:33.

Vanden wave all goes down the field of play. The last 30 seconds of this

:59:34.:59:38.

game, Argentina on the verge of bowing out.

:59:39.:59:44.

Barrionuevo, have they got enough? It came off a stick, it has been

:59:45.:59:53.

ruled, free hit. And that should pretty much do it. Long clearance

:59:54.:00:01.

here. And it is going to be the defending champions who are going to

:00:02.:00:05.

go and play in the semifinals. It is the end of the road for Argentina,

:00:06.:00:11.

and just look at the reactions. The reactions of the Dutch players.

:00:12.:00:20.

STUDIO: So, the Netherlands go through, confirmation of those

:00:21.:00:24.

semifinals, Netherlands taking on Germany and Team GB will face New

:00:25.:00:30.

Zealand. We are reaching the end of our time here on BBC Four, thank you

:00:31.:00:34.

for your company this evening. Over on BBC One right now, athletics

:00:35.:00:38.

continues for the next few hours, so you can keep watching that alongside

:00:39.:00:42.

things like the men's 800 metres with David Rudisha and the women's

:00:43.:00:48.

400 metres with Allyson Felix will be in that. But away from Team GB

:00:49.:00:52.

today, as we always do, these are the stories you may have missed.

:00:53.:01:00.

This is our Rio Trio. In bronze, it is Quine of North Korea, who managed

:01:01.:01:06.

to do the business on the men's vault today in the gymnastics, he

:01:07.:01:09.

took the gold, brilliant performance on the vault. A pretty special time

:01:10.:01:15.

on the podium, as well, where he saluted his national anthem in

:01:16.:01:26.

Peckham. -- saluted. Lopez of Cuba, the Greco-Roman wrestler, celebrated

:01:27.:01:34.

with his coach like this. His third Olympic gold, he is in the 20 stone

:01:35.:01:40.

category, 130 kilos, he is a significant human, and he knows how

:01:41.:01:46.

to celebrate. And gold can only go to this fellow, David kept our cow

:01:47.:02:02.

of Kira, he finished sixth in the weightlifting but entertained the

:02:03.:02:05.

crowd with every single lift, a few Michael Jackson moves, and even when

:02:06.:02:08.

he dropped one, would he leave without the dance? He will not

:02:09.:02:14.

disappoint. We like the way you move.

:02:15.:02:20.

That is just about it from us on BBC Four tonight. Our image of the day

:02:21.:02:27.

is Sophie Hitchon, who left it very late in the hammer today, the last

:02:28.:02:31.

throw for her in the competition, a British record, and it was worthy of

:02:32.:02:36.

a bronze medal. That is how we say goodbye to night on BBC Four, with a

:02:37.:02:39.

bit of hammer time. See tomorrow.

:02:40.:02:42.
