younger and older players. And not just the 16 here come the squad of | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
31 and somebody like Lily Owsley can learn a lot from somebody like Alex | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Danson. It is pleasing she got on the scoreboard and I hope Sophie | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
Bray can tonight because it takes pressure off Alex because everybody | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
is expecting her to deliver. We are going to join Max Chilton who you | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
are going to be joining in commentary. -- Matt Chilton. | :00:21. | :00:27. | |
The first period is just underway. In the blending into the colour of | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
the pitch in royal blue. Great Britain in all read with Sam Quek | :00:34. | :00:40. | |
just dancing over that. It will fall harmlessly behind Maddie Hinch's | :00:41. | :00:53. | |
goal. We will go with the shirt names that the Indian players choose | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
to use, some of them bear no resemblance to the actual names. | :00:59. | :01:14. | |
Grac is known as Grace. -- Deep Ekka is known as Grace. Backend delivery | :01:15. | :01:22. | |
to the edge of the circle. It will be a Great Britain ball. Kate | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
Richardson-Walsh will hope to nail a couple of passes after that mistake. | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
Picked up nicely by Townsend. Back to Unsworth who spread it to the | :01:35. | :01:42. | |
left. Aerial ball. Poked down by the Indian midfielder. Half an | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
opportunity emerging here. Danson thought about chasing that down but | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
shuffles into position. Overhead, Sam Quek should get | :01:53. | :02:11. | |
control and she does. It is picked up by Monika. Sunita spread it out | :02:12. | :02:28. | |
to the right. Very few supporters into night. But a lot of noise, most | :02:29. | :02:35. | |
of them coming from the cries of the players as they communicate on the | :02:36. | :02:36. | |
field. Mel Clewlow has joined me now in the | :02:37. | :02:53. | |
commentary position. Good evening, I'm looking forward to this, just | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
hoping that Great Britain can play with the fluidity and pace of the | :02:57. | :03:04. | |
first game. Danson might find a way through a backhand strike. | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
Interesting. It has a high shot from Danson and Gisele Ansley picked it | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
out of the sky. It was Sophie Bray on the far post. You expect Alex | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
Danson to put that on target and she will be disappointed but give the | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
defenders credit for closing her down and putting her under pressure. | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
Good defending. Townsend getting her stick in. Back to the captain. | :03:31. | :03:49. | |
Unsworth on the right. Crack further up but Unsworth goes back to Kate | :03:50. | :03:56. | |
Richardson-Walsh who misses that trap but it bobbled slightly before | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
reaching her stick. India are looking to play a half good press. | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
The reason for that is they will not allow Great Britain too much space | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
to play into, using the pace of Townsend and Ansley. They will have | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
come up with that game plan for tonight. Helen Richardson-Walsh | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
getting stick on ball. The Great Britain number eight. And here is | :04:23. | :04:34. | |
quick. Unsworth. Options here. Back to quack who might choose to keep it | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
central. Back to the captain. That has gone behind harmlessly and | :04:38. | :04:54. | |
the Indians will restart from inside their 23. Aerial ball. Quick came | :04:55. | :05:05. | |
forward with her stick hard. Aerial ball into space and because Sam Quek | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
moved towards the forward, it is deemed to be dangerous, the forward | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
was in the space on her own and Sam Quek make it dangerous so a free hit | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
to India. Back to Unsworth who finds Kate Richardson-Walsh. Forward to | :05:20. | :05:30. | |
Sam Quek. One of two passes going begging in the early stages here but | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
a little opportunity developing here with Shona McCallin. A huge amount | :05:35. | :05:42. | |
of space on the left. Driven in by Crista Cullen. Danson, trying to | :05:43. | :05:50. | |
climb over one of the Indian players but she was cut short. On the is | :05:51. | :05:58. | |
forced out, India with the free hit -- Hollie Webb is forced out. It is | :05:59. | :06:09. | |
so important, the excitement and adrenaline of the first game against | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
Australia, coming out with a fantastic win and putting three | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
points on the board, but today is all about Great Britain and their | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
mindset will stop can they play at that intensity? It is easier to do | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
against Australia and Argentina, but against India, they are expected to | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
win but can they deliver? Decent pace about the first six or | :06:30. | :06:39. | |
seven minutes of this opening quarter. | :06:40. | :06:49. | |
On the right, Sam Quek. Back to Holly Webb. All the way back to Kate | :06:50. | :07:02. | |
Richardson-Walsh. They have switched flanks. Danson waiting in the | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
centre, does not get any service and the ball is out. It'll be tough for | :07:07. | :07:15. | |
Great Britain to break down this Indian defence, they will be used to | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
it, good individual skills and playing tight channels will be how | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
Great Britain have to play. Shona McCallin was unlucky not to get | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
something along the baseline but those are the areas Great Britain | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
need to attack. The first time in 36 years that the women's team from | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
India as participated in the Olympic Games. The men have been regulars | :07:39. | :07:39. | |
but it is an occasion for the women. It's fantastic to see a different | :07:40. | :07:54. | |
team at the Olympics. Sometimes you end up with the same teams taking | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
part in most tournaments. And for India to be here and to be | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
showcasing what they are about, their hockey is fantastic. Neal | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
Horgan, their coach, has plied his trade in many countries, including | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
England, and it is good to see him with an international team. Townsend | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
has covered a lot of ground and found Sophie Bray who was unable to | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
keep that ball on the blue. It's drifted onto the green. The pitch | :08:20. | :08:26. | |
and the ball are designed to reflect the national colours of Brazil with | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
the green border and blue pitch and yellow ball. | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
Great Britain ball, taken quickly by Townsend. Gets the return. | :08:35. | :08:52. | |
Townsend again. An opportunity for Great Britain if they can just get | :08:53. | :09:05. | |
something of an Indian foot, a penalty corner would be forthcoming | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
but nothing yet. Either have a shot on goal or force an Indian foot onto | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
the ball. That was outside the circle and I think it was dangerous. | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
Normally it is below the knee that belongs to the attacking team and | :09:24. | :09:32. | |
above the need to the defending team but no complaints from Great | :09:33. | :09:40. | |
Britain. -- above the knee. India with a little bit of pace going | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
forward but quickly dealt with and they are held up. They will get the | :09:45. | :09:45. | |
free hit. Rani getting into the circle and | :09:46. | :10:07. | |
looking dangerous. It is a little scrappy here. Great Britain yet to | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
really confidently clear their lines. They will hope to now. One of | :10:13. | :10:21. | |
the British players firing it towards another and India coming | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
forward again. Now a chance to see Great Britain break free. Helen | :10:28. | :10:34. | |
Richardson-Walsh appended. Free hit to Great Britain -- up ended. | :10:35. | :10:46. | |
And there was a green card for this tackle on Helen Richardson-Walsh | :10:47. | :10:56. | |
from Namita. That means great Britain will have an extra player | :10:57. | :11:08. | |
for the next 120 seconds. Nichola White going backwards and losing | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
possession. The two minute with the player over will vanish quickly, | :11:15. | :11:20. | |
they had to capitalise on the numerical superiority here. They are | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
trapped in their own 23 at the moment. They also have to move the | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
ball at speed. They are doing a half good press and that is fine but if | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
they can move it around from one side to the other into the channels, | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
that is how they will undo India. The mistake from White was more | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
about concentration than anything else. | :11:42. | :11:55. | |
Unsworth. Here is Kate Richardson-Walsh with Crista Cullen | :11:56. | :12:07. | |
edging forward on the right and lifting that up. Mostly taken. Shona | :12:08. | :12:15. | |
McCallin forcing her way into the circle and it is pushed behind and | :12:16. | :12:23. | |
out of danger by India. We have got a bit of noise and support in the | :12:24. | :12:29. | |
arena tonight, a nice union Jack Blazer! | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
Swept into the edge of the circle but cut out firmly by India. Cullen | :12:34. | :12:47. | |
comes back. Richardson-Walsh waiting for an opportunity. | :12:48. | :12:54. | |
Nicola White on the run, looking for the return ball from Cullen who goes | :12:55. | :13:02. | |
for the circle, Danson might fancy a shot she can get an inch or two of | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
space, appealing for a penalty corner but none given. India break | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
free. Will this be a video referral? Danson is talking to the umpire. She | :13:15. | :13:31. | |
had 20 seconds. 20 seconds. You have 20 seconds once you think there is | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
an infringement. That is to make the call to the umpire and I felt it was | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
up personally. I think it comes off stick and then hand, I don't think | :13:43. | :13:49. | |
it has touched the foot. Inconclusive on that evidence. I | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
thought it might have clipped the instep of the left shoe of the | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
Indian player. I thought the change of direction was stick onto glove | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
but we know the umpires have Hawk-Eye and other option is to look | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
at so they get to see other replays, not just the ones that we have seen. | :14:07. | :14:15. | |
Lisa Roach is the video umpire, one of the most experienced. We do have | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
some of the most experienced umpires in this tournament and I am sure the | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
correct decision will be reached. Unfortunately, we don't know what | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
she is looking at. We get a couple of replays and one or two on the big | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
screen. I thought it might have clipped the instep but it is | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
inconclusive. There is definitely a change in direction but I thought it | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
was stick and then glove not stick and then foot. If she can offer no | :14:43. | :14:49. | |
advice, there will not be a penalty corner but Great Britain will keep | :14:50. | :14:58. | |
their referral. That's correct. I don't think it has hit a foot, | :14:59. | :14:59. | |
personally. Long deliberation but we have an | :15:00. | :15:18. | |
answer. India ball. GB have lost their referral for the remainder of | :15:19. | :15:23. | |
the game. The referral was rejected and Great Britain will not get | :15:24. | :15:25. | |
another chance to go upstairs. It was a conclusive. The video on | :15:26. | :15:44. | |
the took a few moments do have a go with that. The free hit was also | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
inconclusive from India and Great Britain were poised to strike. Under | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
two minutes until the end of the first quarter. India 0-0 Great | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
Britain. The Argentina supporters are in here | :15:59. | :16:08. | |
for a later match as well and they are making a bit of noise. They are | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
the noisiest supporters in the arena this evening, on both sides. Some | :16:14. | :16:21. | |
things that is what you need as a team. Some atmosphere and some noise | :16:22. | :16:29. | |
in the stadium. India edging towards the circle. Great Britain break. | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
It has gone other way back to Kate Richardson-Walsh. | :16:34. | :17:07. | |
They are just about running out of time in this first quarter. 30 | :17:08. | :17:14. | |
seconds until the hooter. There will be a brief break and then another 15 | :17:15. | :17:20. | |
minute period to take us to half-time. The change of ends at the | :17:21. | :17:28. | |
quarter, just at the halfway point. Great Britain content to keep | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
possession. Not willing to launch another adventure forwards with the | :17:34. | :17:39. | |
clock down into single figures now. The hooter will sound. At the end of | :17:40. | :17:45. | |
the first quarter, it is goalless on pitch one. India 0-0 Great Britain. | :17:46. | :17:53. | |
We shall be back to the hockey very shortly. Just to let you know, it | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
has gone quarter past six here in Rio. At about 10:30pm we'll have | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
another opportunity for Great Britain to add to the bronzes from | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
Ed Ling and Tom Daley and Daniel Goodfellow. That'll be in the rugby | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
sevens. Team GB go in the rugby sevens match against Canada. It is | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
the three of the Olympics and these are the headlines so far. Tom Daley | :18:17. | :18:25. | |
and Daniel Goodfellow took the bronze in the men's and grow ten | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
metre platform. Tom Daley said he would only compete today was a | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
chance of a medal and there was, and he won it. The other medal today | :18:34. | :18:40. | |
came from Ed Ling who won a bronze for Team GB in the men's trap | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
shooting. It was his third Olympic Games. The man from Somerset | :18:46. | :18:53. | |
produced the goods. Helen Glover and Heather Stanning won the first Gold | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
Medal back in 2012, they started the run for gold in the women's pair and | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
Ireland to the semifinals. It is their 37th race without defeat. And | :19:05. | :19:12. | |
we mentioned Team GB's rugby sevens women, they are taking on Canada in | :19:13. | :19:16. | |
the bronze medal match. They lost the semifinal match against New | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
Zealand who will face Australia for the Gold Medal. Team GB coming up | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
shortly on BBC Four in the bronze medal match. Currently on BBC One, | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
we showed you some of it earlier, it is the men's team gymnastics final. | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
A real chance for a medal for Team GB. You can follow that on BBC One, | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
Great Britain in fourth place at the moment. Before we leave you at 2am, | :19:40. | :19:47. | |
this morning, we will bring you more boxing. You can watch that live on | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
the Red Button at the moment. Plenty of British interest later on with | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
us. And there is life table tennis as well on the Red Button. We will | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
go straight back to the hockey but will break out for the rugby sevens. | :20:03. | :20:09. | |
The match do not have a goal as you can see. COMMENTATOR: The second | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
quarter has got under way and nothing to report after 30 seconds. | :20:17. | :20:27. | |
Kate Richardson-Walsh is the skipper for | :20:28. | :20:30. | |
Great Britain and led to a bronze medal in London 2012. | :20:31. | :20:59. | |
In look lively. Three blue shirts. And some support coming as well. Six | :21:00. | :21:11. | |
of them poised as the ball is cleaned up and pushed down the left | :21:12. | :21:19. | |
side. Couple of Indian players around Helen Richardson Walsh. Sam | :21:20. | :21:29. | |
Quek had to be alert. Nichola White pitches it forward. Sophie Bray is | :21:30. | :21:36. | |
number 19. That went on to an Indian stick before Sam Quek could be | :21:37. | :21:43. | |
involved. That was a free hit taken quickly. And another one from Nicola | :21:44. | :21:55. | |
White. Sam Quek, backhand into the circle. Picked up by Georgie Twigg. | :21:56. | :22:04. | |
It is so important that the Great Britain use the ball, moving it, by | :22:05. | :22:12. | |
passing it, not running with it. I can imagine the Danny Care the | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
disastrous treated as any and that there was no pressure on the pass | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
and she pass is a bouncing ball which makes it difficult for her to | :22:21. | :22:30. | |
trap. India now have six blue shirts in the 23. Three in the circle. | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
Possession is still with India as it goes behind. | :22:36. | :22:51. | |
Susannah Townsend. Travelling at speed and looking around as she made | :22:52. | :23:00. | |
her way downfield but the position goes to India. That is Danny the | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
left of the screen with the red beast ball cap on. His left leg is | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
bouncing up and down which tells me he is the restricted coach at the | :23:11. | :23:12. | |
moment. -- frustrated. She has got the free hit. Georgie | :23:13. | :23:23. | |
Twigg is calling for it. She was back the way she came. The | :23:24. | :23:43. | |
unease to be more movement ahead of the ball-carriers. Helen Richardson | :23:44. | :23:50. | |
Walsh is looking for the option. Susannah Townsend was juggling with | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
the ball but did not get the one. India are retreating and offending. | :23:55. | :23:58. | |
-- defending. Hannah Macleod was involved. That | :23:59. | :24:07. | |
was a slip up again as India break free. She just about maintains her | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
footing. Crista Cullen did well, tidying up at the back. Sophie Bray | :24:15. | :24:21. | |
finds Susannah Townsend but can not control it, it was another bouncing | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
pass. Difficult to gauge a stick of the end of that and keep the ball | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
down. The reason for the slack pass. They are not under pressure, why not | :24:32. | :24:37. | |
just push pass it? Roll it onto someone's stick and give them the | :24:38. | :24:40. | |
time to look up and do what rational what they are going to do with it | :24:41. | :24:41. | |
before they received the ball. The umpire is just having a little | :24:42. | :24:51. | |
word. Number 13 for Great Britain. McLeod pushes it forward. The | :24:52. | :25:13. | |
British team were looking around hoping the umpire will be making a | :25:14. | :25:16. | |
signal for the penalty corner. India are back in possession. She was | :25:17. | :25:23. | |
accused of obstruction on the ball. Much better movement, Hannah Macleod | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
moving from the forward line into midfield. It will be those types of | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
movements that will unpack the Indian defence rather than lateral | :25:33. | :25:33. | |
movements from side to side. We're going to leave this match at | :25:34. | :25:46. | |
this point, coverage continues on the Red Button. You will not miss | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
anything stop we can continue to watch Team GB take on India from the | :25:52. | :25:57. | |
National Hockey Centre. Deal- zero at the moment in the second period. | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
The reason we leaving it is because we have medal action for you for | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
Team GB. We were telling you about the rugby sevens. Team GB lost to | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
New Zealand earlier on and go into the bronze medal match when they | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
take on Canada. That matches taking place and a few moments time at the | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
Deodoro Stadium. John Inverdale is with us. Was the disappointment | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
about what might have been the rally focused on that they can leave Rio | :26:25. | :26:31. | |
with a medal? Probably a bit of both. The atmosphere here has went | :26:32. | :26:37. | |
up because of the presence of so many American supporters who are | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
waving the start -- Stars Stripes and singing. America finished fifth | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
in the categorisation after beating France in a fantastic match that | :26:49. | :26:51. | |
just finished. We are down to the last format. Great Britain against | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
Canada and then the gold-medal match between New Zealand and Australia. | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
For Great Britain, they played really well yesterday but any match | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
against New Zealand today, they conceded an early triangle back onto | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
level pegging but had to map yellow cards. Playing against the all | :27:10. | :27:15. | |
Blacks, with seven, is hard enough, with six it is pretty hard and with | :27:16. | :27:21. | |
five, it is impossible. During that period New Zealand van away with it | :27:22. | :27:26. | |
and it would only be one winner. The key issue is that the captain said | :27:27. | :27:29. | |
they have to dust themselves of this is a medal to be won. They have an | :27:30. | :27:33. | |
opportunity to do it against a side they beat emphatically yesterday | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
without conceding one is a good point. Great Britain are pretty | :27:38. | :27:41. | |
strong favourites to win the bronze medal in this match. Just a quick | :27:42. | :27:45. | |
word on the conditions. Down here that the Copacabana beach it is | :27:46. | :27:50. | |
windy. You are about 12-13 miles away from us. It is not windy at | :27:51. | :27:56. | |
all. Ideal conditions for playing. It is cool. The temperature has | :27:57. | :28:00. | |
dropped but it is ideal conditions for playing rugby. You can tell as | :28:01. | :28:05. | |
the camera pans around the stadium, there is more people here than there | :28:06. | :28:09. | |
has been up to now. They have sold about 10,000 tickets for tonight and | :28:10. | :28:15. | |
it is a 15,000 seater stadium. Huge contingent from Australia and New | :28:16. | :28:20. | |
Zealand. The ranks have been swelled by the huge Americans who have | :28:21. | :28:25. | |
enjoyed themselves. This is a sizeable British contingent as well | :28:26. | :28:29. | |
and they will be cautiously optimistic about the bronze medal | :28:30. | :28:32. | |
heading Great Britain's way in the next 20 minutes or so. The | :28:33. | :28:40. | |
commentary team is Sir Clive Woodward and Eddie Butler. | :28:41. | :28:46. | |
COMMENTATOR: It is an exercise in pulling ourselves together. Britain | :28:47. | :28:53. | |
will be energised by the speeches of beating Canada 22-0 but will have | :28:54. | :28:59. | |
been bruised by the losing 25-7 to New Zealand in the semifinal. What | :29:00. | :29:02. | |
do you think which marks Canada lost as well. Do not underestimate | :29:03. | :29:15. | |
Canada. Team GB beat them comfortably in the group stages. | :29:16. | :29:20. | |
This is a good Canadian team. Seeing them in the tunnel, they are up for | :29:21. | :29:24. | |
the scheme. It is an important two -- important game for Team GB. Very | :29:25. | :29:32. | |
disappointing against New Zealand, especially losing two players that | :29:33. | :29:35. | |
gave it away. Leaving the tournament with the bronze medal would be a | :29:36. | :29:41. | |
huge achievement. The statistics do not lie and the best two teams are | :29:42. | :29:48. | |
in the final. Rugby is rugby. This is a very good Canadian team. They | :29:49. | :29:53. | |
are thinking, we are lucky to be here. Team GB need to be at their | :29:54. | :29:58. | |
very best to see this home. Busy in the starting line-up from the Great | :29:59. | :30:03. | |
Britain side that faced New Zealand. Danielle Waterman comes into the | :30:04. | :30:06. | |
side and Natasha Hunt goes to the bench. Canada start with Bianca | :30:07. | :30:12. | |
Farella which means they have got speed from the start. Canada went | :30:13. | :30:24. | |
into the Australia game with more strength than the speed. | :30:25. | :30:32. | |
Katy McLean wins the ball. Mistake by Danielle Waterman, under | :30:33. | :30:42. | |
pressure. The ball is retrieved. Team GB controlling the ball in his | :30:43. | :31:37. | |
opening minutes. No sooner said than the whistle goes! Ten minutes each | :31:38. | :31:45. | |
way in the final. That was quite a tough call. I think this is a | :31:46. | :31:50. | |
classic thing where you have the power of the Canadian team and I | :31:51. | :31:55. | |
mean a lot of power, and Team GB have a yard or pace. They have to | :31:56. | :32:00. | |
keep those errors to a minimum. First touch from Stacey and Landry. | :32:01. | :32:23. | |
Outsiders Farella. A defensive error on the outside that'll cost GB. | :32:24. | :32:29. | |
Fantastic tackle by Alice Richardson. Great tackle. But why | :32:30. | :32:38. | |
didn't they start with Bianca Farella because she is their | :32:39. | :32:44. | |
standout player. No doubt the Canadian team is up for this game. A | :32:45. | :32:51. | |
tribe will be scored. Stacey from Canada. That is the danger. This is | :32:52. | :32:59. | |
a good Canadian team. They will have a look at it. It is Karen Ann | :33:00. | :33:05. | |
Packer. I don't know why they are checking this. That is good. Just. | :33:06. | :33:12. | |
Sometimes you wonder why referees cannot see that. That is definitely | :33:13. | :33:13. | |
a try. Just checking. Canada have a more powerful team | :33:14. | :33:33. | |
than Team GB. You just hope that loss to the New Zealand team is out | :33:34. | :33:36. | |
of their system. Because the emotion after the game was quite noticeable | :33:37. | :33:44. | |
from Team GB. They started quite well but simple basic errors and | :33:45. | :33:49. | |
some of these Canadian players are exceptional. A great pass by Kelly | :33:50. | :33:57. | |
Russell and a good footballer. Five points becomes seven. Landry getting | :33:58. | :34:07. | |
the conversion. A very good player. Good games and bad games in this | :34:08. | :34:11. | |
tournament. They are the fourth ranked team behind Team GB. Great | :34:12. | :34:21. | |
Britain have given away their first try. Emily Scarratt under pressure | :34:22. | :34:28. | |
but safely in the hands of Amy Wilson-Hardy. Not releasing. Penalty | :34:29. | :34:35. | |
against Canada. Most of the penalties in the | :34:36. | :34:46. | |
tournament have been at the breakdown and the referees are very | :34:47. | :34:57. | |
tight. You have to get behind and get up on your feet quickly. That | :34:58. | :35:01. | |
was a tough call but you have to get behind the ball quickly before you | :35:02. | :35:02. | |
play it. The referee from Australia was very | :35:03. | :35:20. | |
quick to blow them. -- blow, then. Quickly taken by Alice Richardson. | :35:21. | :35:27. | |
Another penalty against Canada. They have given away the penalty and now | :35:28. | :35:37. | |
a chance for Joanne Watmore to chase. It has come to Danielle | :35:38. | :35:44. | |
Waterman instead. Danielle Waterman was looking like she was going to | :35:45. | :35:50. | |
run out of space but she scores. A wonderful try by Danielle Waterman | :35:51. | :35:54. | |
but once again, it is the kick. You have to find space in this game and | :35:55. | :35:58. | |
you can use it with your hands or use the kick and this time, it was | :35:59. | :36:02. | |
Alice Richardson with a beautiful kick. She saw the space. Good | :36:03. | :36:07. | |
bounce. Danielle Waterman has come into the starting team, finishes off | :36:08. | :36:16. | |
really well. Team GB needed that. We are in for a cracker of a game. They | :36:17. | :36:24. | |
missed the conversion. Katy McLean will come back and take the restart | :36:25. | :36:28. | |
kick. Danielle Waterman, excellent finish. That will do the team a lot | :36:29. | :36:34. | |
of good. This is a big pressurised game. This is even more pressure. A | :36:35. | :36:43. | |
lot of pressure on these women tonight. Amy Wilson-Hardy. Penalty. | :36:44. | :36:58. | |
Penalty for not releasing. It was not so good after all. Canada in | :36:59. | :37:02. | |
possession, quickly taken by Kelly Russell. Farella. Joanne Watmore has | :37:03. | :37:08. | |
to be careful, a good tackle by Watmore. Watmore penalised. Quickly | :37:09. | :37:14. | |
taken, Kelly Russell. Russell again. Farella. Quick | :37:15. | :37:33. | |
counter rucking by Watmore, delaying release for Canada. Landry finding | :37:34. | :37:40. | |
the gap and runs straight through it. Alice Richardson looking inside | :37:41. | :37:46. | |
and asking the question, what went wrong with the defence? They will be | :37:47. | :37:54. | |
very disappointed with that. A real lack of communication. She just goes | :37:55. | :38:00. | |
between them. There was a call from the inside and that was a soft try. | :38:01. | :38:04. | |
Very well taken. You have to say that. Landry. Team GB have to | :38:05. | :38:15. | |
concentrate. It is so important, this is a lot longer game. Ten | :38:16. | :38:21. | |
minutes each way in the finals and the play-offs. This is where you | :38:22. | :38:25. | |
have to be thinking correctly. You have to keep calm and think | :38:26. | :38:29. | |
correctly. A strong bench to come on but that was a disappointing try | :38:30. | :38:33. | |
from a defensive point of view. To step between the two British | :38:34. | :38:39. | |
players. Game on here, 14-5 to Canada. Landry. Again, they put it | :38:40. | :38:47. | |
into the middle zone, towards Katy McLean. Kelly Russell. With height | :38:48. | :38:59. | |
and reach and power but it is a penalty to Britain, taken by Alice | :39:00. | :39:07. | |
Richardson. Amy Wilson-Hardy stays up and then it is back to Danielle | :39:08. | :39:14. | |
Waterman. Emily Scarratt shakes off Russell. Forward pass. The Canadian | :39:15. | :39:20. | |
wedding are so physical at the breakdown. All the gains we have | :39:21. | :39:26. | |
seen, including Australia and New Zealand, this is the most physical | :39:27. | :39:32. | |
game at the breakdown. Team GB are rushing in defence and taking | :39:33. | :39:35. | |
chances and they just want to play the most physical game so far and it | :39:36. | :39:40. | |
is absolutely paying off. Alice Richardson is OK. You just cannot | :39:41. | :39:46. | |
have those errors. A simple forward pass by Emily Scarratt, it is unlike | :39:47. | :39:53. | |
Team GB. You don't get to a play-off without being a good team and Canada | :39:54. | :39:58. | |
are a very good team. You have to really think this through, | :39:59. | :40:01. | |
concentrate and keep hold of this ball and move this big Canadian team | :40:02. | :40:03. | |
around the field. They have hit the blindside. | :40:04. | :40:23. | |
Knock-on. That could be yellow. It is a spate of yellow cards for Great | :40:24. | :40:30. | |
Britain in the closing stages. Of the women's sevens. Emily Scarratt, | :40:31. | :40:35. | |
the captain, off for a two minutes. They are down by nine points | :40:36. | :40:41. | |
already. A third try for Canada. Britain in trouble. Britain in huge | :40:42. | :40:51. | |
trouble. We saw it in the semifinal, couple Mike Ellery cards. -- two | :40:52. | :41:02. | |
yellow cards. The Canadians, why didn't start with Farella, I don't | :41:03. | :41:08. | |
know, she is a real athlete. Put the ball in front of her and she will | :41:09. | :41:17. | |
score. They can get this back, 12 points down. But we have to keep the | :41:18. | :41:21. | |
ball and move his big Canadian team around. 19-5. There is time for the | :41:22. | :41:36. | |
restart. This is where the coach earns his money. Just watching down | :41:37. | :41:39. | |
there to see Middleton, you really have to stay calm and think this | :41:40. | :41:43. | |
through. There is a ten minute second-half but at the moment, we | :41:44. | :41:46. | |
have been absolutely smashed off the ball in this first ten minutes. | :41:47. | :41:52. | |
Landry looks like she will drop it in the middle of the park again. | :41:53. | :42:09. | |
Is a very scrappy exit from the scrum. Kelly Russell scores another | :42:10. | :42:19. | |
easy try for Canada. This is turning into a serious nightmare situation | :42:20. | :42:24. | |
for Team GB. They are just getting absolutely blown away at the | :42:25. | :42:27. | |
breakdown. Unforced error from Alice Richardson. Canadians not the | :42:28. | :42:33. | |
quickest team but they are powerful and strong and physically, they have | :42:34. | :42:40. | |
completely blasted and outmuscled Team GB. This game is retrievable. | :42:41. | :42:51. | |
It is not over yet. This is the most important two minutes of the young | :42:52. | :42:58. | |
players' lives. Contrasting emotions on the field, only half-time but | :42:59. | :43:01. | |
Canada have good reason to laugh and smile. There will be some worried | :43:02. | :43:07. | |
looks in that GB huddle. You saw it in the tunnel before the game. The | :43:08. | :43:13. | |
Canadians, very lucky to be here and say, this is our big chance. I think | :43:14. | :43:21. | |
the pressure has got to team GB at the moment. John Tate, the very tall | :43:22. | :43:34. | |
Canadian coach, it used to play in Wales with the Cardiff Blues, now | :43:35. | :43:39. | |
coach of the Canadian women. This is the finish. They had to make sure | :43:40. | :43:47. | |
Paquin didn't cross the dead ball line. Good hand off. It all looked | :43:48. | :43:55. | |
pretty rosy or at least equal at this stage. But then came three | :43:56. | :44:01. | |
tries. Another GB player in the bin, defensive frailties, simple | :44:02. | :44:07. | |
mistakes, the flyer, Farella, a whole catalogue of things going | :44:08. | :44:13. | |
wrong. The difference is the breakdown. They are dominating the | :44:14. | :44:23. | |
game. Putting so much pressure on the British women. They cannot clear | :44:24. | :44:31. | |
the ball quick enough. They have seen what the coach does, as is | :44:32. | :44:35. | |
whether he brings on some of the substitutions. It looks like Emily | :44:36. | :44:40. | |
Scarratt is back on the field. We have ten minutes and this is a | :44:41. | :44:47. | |
massive ten minutes for this team. As is for the moment. | :44:48. | :44:58. | |
Katy McLean, Emily Scarratt setting off in pursuit but Jennifer has been | :44:59. | :45:05. | |
brilliant, catching kick-offs. To the extent that you wonder why she | :45:06. | :45:08. | |
might have been not chosen. You read my thoughts. Kish is an | :45:09. | :45:22. | |
amazing athlete, don't kick to her. But that was a wonderful take, so | :45:23. | :45:30. | |
athletic. Kish is there to recycle. Canada in possession. This is a term | :45:31. | :45:36. | |
of speed from Paquin again. Emily Scarratt coming back and covering | :45:37. | :45:43. | |
and does well to make the tackle. Wow, that was a must make tackle by | :45:44. | :45:49. | |
Emily and she did remarkably well to get across but at the breakdown we | :45:50. | :45:53. | |
did not have the power. It is the Canadians again. Good territorial | :45:54. | :46:06. | |
gain. We are looking at the clock now, we have to be taking these | :46:07. | :46:11. | |
line-ups quickly. Karen Paquin in full flow. Emily Scarratt stopped | :46:12. | :46:18. | |
it. A big throat for Danielle Waterman here. -- throw. Scarratt. | :46:19. | :46:31. | |
Better presentation at the ruck. That'll be a penalty for GB. They | :46:32. | :46:47. | |
almost just want to smash the opposition players and it is really | :46:48. | :46:53. | |
unnerving the British players. Scarratt finds down the middle. And | :46:54. | :47:05. | |
it has worked. Kayla Moleschi just counter rocking with sheer | :47:06. | :47:11. | |
aggression. And not think Britain out of their stride. Just not | :47:12. | :47:16. | |
playing the game fast enough which is allowing players like Moleschi to | :47:17. | :47:20. | |
use their physical excellence to smash GB of the ball. Claire Allan | :47:21. | :47:35. | |
and Heather Fisher come on. They are looking a bit shocked. But they can | :47:36. | :47:37. | |
still come off. Kayla Moleschi to feed the | :47:38. | :47:56. | |
scrummage. Loose. Anyway will do to get it back in blue hands and a | :47:57. | :48:04. | |
penalty comes. Alice Richardson stopped from taking it quickly. | :48:05. | :48:10. | |
Waterman slows everything down. They have to get on with this. Set piece | :48:11. | :48:20. | |
from the penalty. Richardson, Scarratt. | :48:21. | :48:26. | |
Richardson acting scrum-half, Waterman. It has suddenly opened up | :48:27. | :48:35. | |
for Danielle Waterman but she needs help and it arrives through Amy | :48:36. | :48:44. | |
Wilson-Hardy. Scarratt. Cut back against the traffic and get the pass | :48:45. | :48:48. | |
away to Heather Fisher who goes on a long run, Jasmine Joyce, the | :48:49. | :48:51. | |
speedster will score. Jasmine Joyce, the Welsh woman in | :48:52. | :49:13. | |
the English squad in that the rest of the squad are English. Great try, | :49:14. | :49:19. | |
the one representative from Wales and she took the chance very | :49:20. | :49:22. | |
quickly. Have to take the conversion quickly. No good but 26-10, six | :49:23. | :49:31. | |
minutes to go. This is where the restart are critical. Team GB have | :49:32. | :49:35. | |
to get themselves really organised and demand this restart. We need a | :49:36. | :49:40. | |
good kick and good pressure to try to get the ball back. Emily Scarratt | :49:41. | :49:45. | |
will go up for it and she gets it. Heather Fisher. Claire Allan. Now | :49:46. | :49:49. | |
Joyce. This is where they have to be | :49:50. | :50:01. | |
careful but it is well delivered. Natasha Hunt goes out. Again, those | :50:02. | :50:09. | |
little things, the details that turn the game. We have got the ball, just | :50:10. | :50:15. | |
stay in, do not get knocked into touch and that was so easy. Canada | :50:16. | :50:20. | |
will love that, they will play slowly and the clock is starting to | :50:21. | :50:24. | |
go down. They have got to keep the ball in play. | :50:25. | :50:34. | |
The Canadian forward have really won this game, they have absolutely | :50:35. | :50:44. | |
smashed GB at the breakdown. The line-out safely delivered. Farella, | :50:45. | :50:50. | |
straight up the middle, through one tackle. Landry. Back to Moleschi, | :50:51. | :51:05. | |
Kish. Karen Paquin. She delivers it safely to the three quarters. | :51:06. | :51:16. | |
Farella. Tackled by Emily Scott. We have nobody at the breakdown and | :51:17. | :51:20. | |
they are winning the ball at ease. Joyce makes the tackle. Farella. | :51:21. | :51:33. | |
Natasha Hunt, but again an error and the ball is lost in contact. Kish, | :51:34. | :52:00. | |
excellent pass. Landry. Landry doesn't need Farella. This is the | :52:01. | :52:07. | |
bronze medal try for Landry and Canada. We heard a lot about Landry | :52:08. | :52:15. | |
before the tournament and she has had a quiet tournament until this | :52:16. | :52:23. | |
game. Just a fantastic player and she has real gas. He had to say that | :52:24. | :52:27. | |
Canada had thoroughly deserved this and we have not been able to recover | :52:28. | :52:32. | |
from the disappointment of the semifinal loss to New Zealand. This | :52:33. | :52:37. | |
is a shadow of the team that absolutely put this Canadian team to | :52:38. | :52:38. | |
the sword yesterday. Landry is the try scorer and | :52:39. | :52:53. | |
conversion kick and it is out of reach now at 33-10. It is so sad to | :52:54. | :53:00. | |
watch. This is a huge disappointment for Team GB, they would have fancied | :53:01. | :53:07. | |
their chances in this match. To lead the Olympic Games coming forth | :53:08. | :53:11. | |
that'll take some recovery. Ghislaine Landry the try scorer. | :53:12. | :53:17. | |
Heather Fisher, she can only try to catch the kick-off and set up | :53:18. | :53:24. | |
something to make this less painful. Natasha Hunt. Canada have brought on | :53:25. | :53:33. | |
Charity Williams which adds even more pace and power to their team. | :53:34. | :53:44. | |
Amy Wilson-Hardy. Another penalty. Canada have given away penalties | :53:45. | :53:47. | |
without worrying about the consequences because it is all part | :53:48. | :53:53. | |
of the aggression. It is interesting, world like made a big | :53:54. | :53:58. | |
point about being strict at the contact area which is five but there | :53:59. | :54:06. | |
has been no yellow card of the contact area. Charity Williams makes | :54:07. | :54:10. | |
the tackle. The penalty goes the other way this | :54:11. | :54:22. | |
time. Joanne Watmore, it is difficult to watch. | :54:23. | :54:28. | |
We have an injury. That will require medical attention. Amy Wilson-Hardy | :54:29. | :54:41. | |
is down number 12. Look at the breakdown, look at Kish, just make | :54:42. | :54:47. | |
it awful for Team GB to move the ball away. If you keep doing that, | :54:48. | :54:52. | |
you have to be yellow carded because this game has been full penalties at | :54:53. | :54:56. | |
the breakdown will stop Simon Middleton, the Team GB coach, he | :54:57. | :54:59. | |
will be shattered with this performance. | :55:00. | :55:07. | |
Megan Lukan, Heather Fisher, again, look at that, that is the face of | :55:08. | :55:18. | |
the team that is coming forth. -- coming in fourth place. I'm trying | :55:19. | :55:26. | |
to think where this has gone wrong but from the opening seconds, the | :55:27. | :55:33. | |
first contact, the physicality of the Canadian team. You don't want to | :55:34. | :55:41. | |
end up in an arm wrestle with this team because they are more powerful | :55:42. | :55:42. | |
than us. It has been a difficult day for | :55:43. | :55:57. | |
Emily Scarratt, the captain. They played so well yesterday to beat | :55:58. | :56:03. | |
Canada in the group game and Fiji in the quarter final. It has been an | :56:04. | :56:08. | |
ordeal today. The last chance for Canada. Charity Williams outside. | :56:09. | :56:19. | |
Support as well, red shirts everywhere. Charity Williams. The | :56:20. | :56:26. | |
ball is coming back quickly for Canada every time. Megan Lukan, | :56:27. | :56:36. | |
Landry, outside her. Clever work by Ghislaine Landry. Heather Fisher, | :56:37. | :56:42. | |
that is pretty good as well by the GB forward and it is Natasha Hunt | :56:43. | :56:51. | |
who gets outside the 22. Jasmine Joyce. Within the last minutes. | :56:52. | :57:02. | |
Again, the rushing defence of the Canadians. It is too slow. GB are | :57:03. | :57:09. | |
stuck in their 22 and it is that aggression at the breakdown. Scrum | :57:10. | :57:17. | |
to Canada. That is it. Canada can take their time. Jennifer Kish can | :57:18. | :57:27. | |
look on and she can know that a medal will be going around her neck. | :57:28. | :57:32. | |
This is an astonishing turnaround. There is always a danger when you | :57:33. | :57:35. | |
have one team coming in with everything to gain, meaning Canada, | :57:36. | :57:41. | |
because they were quite fortunate to get there. And the other side was so | :57:42. | :57:46. | |
shattered about losing in the semifinals and they have not been | :57:47. | :57:49. | |
able to produce the same performance and this will take some getting over | :57:50. | :57:55. | |
and I feel so sorry for this team. The hooter goes and Canada will get | :57:56. | :57:58. | |
rid of this through Ghislaine Landry. Arms raised, the whistle | :57:59. | :58:07. | |
goes, Canada celebrate. Great Britain slump. It has been a tough | :58:08. | :58:14. | |
day for the Great Britain team. They have finished in fourth place. But | :58:15. | :58:20. | |
it is Canada that takes the first medal in the rugby sevens. Bronze | :58:21. | :58:25. | |
for Canada after they have beaten Great Britain 33-10. No luck, you | :58:26. | :58:33. | |
just have to look at it and say, well done to Canada, the best team | :58:34. | :58:36. | |
won and we got absolutely blown away. The score does them justice. | :58:37. | :58:44. | |
We could not cope with the power at the contact level and that will be | :58:45. | :58:49. | |
hugely disappointing to Jean GB and it'll take a lot of recovering. -- | :58:50. | :58:54. | |
Team GB. To think you should get a medal and not leave with one is big | :58:55. | :58:56. | |
disappointment. John Tait celebrates with his | :58:57. | :59:05. | |
players. It is a little moment in Olympic history, the first medal in | :59:06. | :59:10. | |
women's rugby sevens but not the one that really counts, gold and silver, | :59:11. | :59:12. | |
but a bronze for Canada. Huge disappointment for Team GB, we | :59:13. | :59:22. | |
will be back for the gold medal match shortly. They thought it could | :59:23. | :59:27. | |
be their moment, they had already beaten Canada on Saturday, 22-0, | :59:28. | :59:31. | |
that they have lost the bronze medal match and looked at the delightful | :59:32. | :59:35. | |
Canada, they know they have the bronze medal. Will it be Australia | :59:36. | :59:40. | |
all New Zealand who take the gold? That gives you an idea of what will | :59:41. | :59:46. | |
be happening on BBC Four where we are here until 2am. We will bring | :59:47. | :59:53. | |
you that gold medal match next between the two favourites in rugby | :59:54. | :59:57. | |
sevens, Australia and New Zealand. And at about 11:30pm we will wrap up | :59:58. | :00:03. | |
the boxing with those Team GB names involved. Josh Kelly, Antony Fowler | :00:04. | :00:10. | |
and Lawrence Okolie who was very impressive in the heavyweight | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
division and he is back in action and we draw things to a close with | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
the Beach Volleyball Arena if you stick with us through the evening, | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
one IM we will go down to the Beach Volleyball | :00:22. | :00:39. | |
You can see the power of the Atlantic Ocean. Hardly anyone has | :00:40. | :00:46. | |
been in the sea. You can see the power there. Where we have been | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
stood has been fishermen 's corner which sounds like some way you would | :00:51. | :00:56. | |
find in a supermarket. Everyone says it is windy and your hair and your | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
shirt is blowing around everywhere. It gives me an opportunity to answer | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
a question that were sent in on social media from Emma the other day | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
because we mentioned that Copacabana is down the far end of the beach and | :01:10. | :01:18. | |
we mentioned the fort. We were asked if it was still used by the military | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
and the answer is sort of. There are still working cans down their -- | :01:23. | :01:31. | |
cannons down there. It was opened in 1914. There was a museum of military | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
history for Brazil in that fort and if you would like to dazzle your | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
friends with a pointless fact, there is another fort that was built in | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
the 18th-century. Dazzle your friends with that while we show you | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
the headlines from day three of the Olympic Games. Disappointment for | :01:51. | :02:01. | |
Team GB 's men in the gymnastics. Fourth-place finish as they miss out | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
on the medals. Japan take the gold. We just showed you the great Britain | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
's rugby sevens losing to Canada. Gold medal match to come, but they | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
have been beaten by the Canadians, despite beating them earlier in the | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
tournament by 22-0. Bronze for Tom Daley and Dan Goodfellow earlier | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
tonight and look at the delight on their faces in these synchro | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
platform diving. Tom Daley still has individuals to come on the final | :02:33. | :02:39. | |
Saturday of the Games. There have been two bronzes for Team GB today. | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
Ed Ling won the third gold-medal -- medal of the Games in his third | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
Olympic Games. In the thirsty finish 25th and then he was 21st and he has | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
been slowly improving and what an improvement today as he leaves with | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
the bronze medal. This one is all about the silver and gold. Who will | :03:02. | :03:10. | |
win it? Australia or New Zealand. We will rejoin our commentators for the | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
gold-medal match, Sir Clive Woodward and Eddie Butler. | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
We are just pausing for the national anthems, a bit of respect. | :03:23. | :03:33. | |
Welcome back to the stadium. There is barely a breath of wind here and | :03:34. | :04:34. | |
it is New Zealand against Australia and with all due respect all the | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
other teams here in the women rugby sevens, even with the respect to | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
Canada, this is women's sevens on a different level. There is no doubt | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
that these are the two outstanding teams and they have made the final | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
and there will be real fireworks here. The break down will be | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
absolutely key. We have seen Canada blast Team GB out of the water at | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
the break down that these two teams are very evenly matched and they | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
have spent four years preparing for this one moment in time and we are | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
really looking forward to this. We have amazing players on both sides | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
so it should be women's Olympic rugby at its absolute best. They | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
spent the last four years meeting each other in finals so they are the | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
best and they have been and they will get only better. Australia have | :05:25. | :05:32. | |
very quickly assembled a team from all sports, New Zealand have, | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
because that is the way they do it, they have come through the | :05:39. | :05:52. | |
traditional rugby channels. Kelly Brazier, Kayla McAlister, stars | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
everywhere, across-the-board. There are great Australian forwards, and | :05:57. | :06:04. | |
they might think that Shannon Parry will give them more upfront. | :06:05. | :06:13. | |
Charlotte Caslick is one of the absolute stars of the women's game. | :06:14. | :06:24. | |
Nathan Wong will start. Takes the direct route, it will be physical | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
and furious and it will be fast. It will also be wide because these two | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
teams, like no other can whip the ball across the pitch in four | :06:34. | :06:34. | |
passes. New Zealand are aggressive in the | :06:35. | :06:45. | |
tackle. Shannon Parry. Whitman is a | :06:46. | :07:08. | |
wonderful athlete and wonderful player. So tough at the break down. | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
-- Woodman. Charlotte Caslick runs into Portia Woodman which is not the | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
best thing to do. Charlotte Caslick sizes up the options. Aggression | :07:23. | :07:32. | |
from Kayla McAllister. Australia make the first mistake. New Zealand | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
high-5 each other for the good tackle. The small margins will | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
count. They call each other these sisters and what a hit by Kyla | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
McAllister. They are amazing athletes but they love the physical | :07:47. | :07:57. | |
side of the game. Just coming in. A big moment, this. | :07:58. | :08:05. | |
Kelly Brazier to Kayla McAllister. Sarah Goss takes and goes quickly. | :08:06. | :08:17. | |
The strength of the New Zealand forward. Kelly Brazier. Portia | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
Woodman goes in to clear out, she does so very effectively. Luce | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
Fuller -- loose. Ruby Tui on the outside, not the | :08:27. | :08:42. | |
fastest on the New Zealand side. An excellent tackle by Alicia Quirk. | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
Seroquel scoffed -- Sarah Goss tries to go the wrong way around. A | :08:47. | :08:55. | |
first-class tackle. Out of play. What good defence. It was by Shannon | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
Parry. No love lost within these two sides and again, watch the tackle | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
come by Shannon Parry. A textbook tackle. Just already the speed of | :09:08. | :09:14. | |
the ball from the contact on both sides is a different level than you | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
saw in the previous game. That is why they are one and two. Charlotte | :09:19. | :09:25. | |
Caslick does just about everything, she doesn't throw that well into the | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
line-out. A lot of applause for the small things that go either right, | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
or in this case wrong. There is a wobbly old throw from Charlotte | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
Caslick. It is fair to say that the referee got that dead right. | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
Normally she is spot on and all of those things but it is a big moment | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
to give the ball away and in this part of the ground. What a back | :09:51. | :09:57. | |
decision. Here is Brazier and Kayla McAllister. What a tackle. | :09:58. | :10:13. | |
They have worked the overlap, the long pass out to Kayla McAllister. | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
She schools the first ride of the gold medal final. New Zealand take | :10:20. | :10:26. | |
the lead. -- she scores the first try. The number 12 there, Kayla | :10:27. | :10:36. | |
McAllister, just thinking the speed they went across. The Australian | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
defence was fantastic and it took some scoring. See the ball comes | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
out. Kelly Brazier and Kayla McAllister have power. A try. A good | :10:47. | :10:53. | |
start from the New Zealand team but Australia will not panic. They know | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
they have the measure of this team as well it came from not straight at | :10:58. | :11:06. | |
the line-out from Charlotte Caslick, one of their star players. You can't | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
make those fundamental errors against New Zealand. This will be a | :11:11. | :11:23. | |
close final, no doubt about that. The comfort of scoring first. | :11:24. | :11:35. | |
Which space is Nathan Wong going to drop this ball into? Who is chasing? | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
She has gone wrong again. It works well enough because it pins | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
Australia back, and another mistake from Charlotte Caslick. She is out | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
to make amends for it. Out to make amends. Long. To Shannon Parry. | :11:52. | :12:05. | |
Better by Australia. Starting to string some passes together, until | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
Sarah Goss comes in with another crunching tackle. Shannon Parry | :12:12. | :12:19. | |
again on the outside. The one Australia forward quite happy with | :12:20. | :12:27. | |
the multiple contact tackles. Charlotte Caslick takes it quickly. | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
That is a flying tackle like Nathan Wong. Alicia Quirk has to be | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
careful, she doesn't want to look too many passes. -- loop too many | :12:39. | :12:46. | |
passes. It is away from Kayla McAllister. It is a straight race | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
for the line. Australia 's leading try scorer is going to be Corp by | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
Nathan Wong. Fantastic defending from Tyler Nathan Wong. What is more | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
New Zealand come away with the ball. Sarah Goss gives away the penalty, | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
having done such good work. Wonderful passage of play and what a | :13:09. | :13:15. | |
tackle. What a tackle from Tyler Nathan Wong. That was the top try | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
scorer for Australia in terms of Emma Tonegato, who thought she was | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
home unclear but real pace from Tyler Nathan Wong to get back. Emma | :13:25. | :13:34. | |
Tonegato takes the penalty. She will be disappointed because she is the | :13:35. | :13:43. | |
flyer in the Australia side. No mistake this time, or is there | :13:44. | :13:44. | |
doubt? Incredible tackle by Kelly Brazier, | :13:45. | :13:58. | |
she threw her body at that one. Player not in touch. A Spanish | :13:59. | :14:09. | |
referee. Everybody is happy. Try scored. Emma Tonegato. A brave | :14:10. | :14:18. | |
finish. What a tackle! Go on, Clive. The try is given. | :14:19. | :14:33. | |
Maybe a slight knock on there. And nudge. You just admire the | :14:34. | :14:42. | |
Australians, the attitude of these two countries. They like each other | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
but they love playing against each other and both of these teams spent | :14:47. | :14:52. | |
four years putting these great sides together and this is a humdinger | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
already. 5-5 with eight minutes gone. Both sides very strong at the | :14:58. | :15:07. | |
break down. On for Australia comes Ellia Green and Emma Tonegato was | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
going. Ellia Green is a wonderful player who was born in Fiji and has | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
only been playing the game for three years but brings a bit more power to | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
Australian team. Chloe Dalton missed the conversion. The restart. Shannon | :15:23. | :15:31. | |
Parry sent back because she was in front of the kick that was a little | :15:32. | :15:32. | |
scrappy. Portia Woodman has not had a real | :15:33. | :15:43. | |
chance yet. Turnover ball for Australia. Caslick, looks for the | :15:44. | :15:54. | |
gap and goes past Sarah Goss. But New Zealand regroup. It has become a | :15:55. | :16:05. | |
mass scrap. Australian ball. I'm really pleased the referee did not | :16:06. | :16:10. | |
give a penalty because it was a wonderful bit of aggression from | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
both teams the contact area also no questions asked, everything given. | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
There is a chance to get possession so they will pile in players, not | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
worrying about being exposed on and overlap, a chance for the ball and | :16:26. | :16:32. | |
you commit players. Exactly. Caslick to feed, get it to Quirk. She | :16:33. | :16:42. | |
delivers, Caslick get the past out of the tackle, Alicia Quirk, was | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
that a deliberate knock-on? If it is, that could be yellow. It is, it | :16:47. | :16:52. | |
is going to be a yellow card and it is Portia Woodman. New Zealand give | :16:53. | :17:01. | |
away the penalty and lose their steely stare player. Portia Woodman | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
has been amazing in defence. Her hands on the head, she knew it was a | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
yellow card -- steely Quirk hangs onto it and fired it | :17:12. | :17:22. | |
long and it is a great chance for Australia for their second try! And | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
they do! And it is Evania Pelite who scores. How well did Alice Quirk do? | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
She held it and held it and waited for Pelite to take this. A brilliant | :17:37. | :17:43. | |
comeback for Australia. It looks to be New Zealand's game at one stage | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
but they are reeling it back and a great site to see this amazing | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
athlete in full stride. A great try from Pelite. Chloe Dalton. 10-5. | :17:53. | :18:10. | |
Australia have the one woman advantage. Not half-time yet. It is | :18:11. | :18:23. | |
half-time! Nothing is happening. Going back to Portia Woodman, we | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
have not seen her, she is the big attacking threat and their leading | :18:29. | :18:34. | |
try scorer with nine tries so far in the tournament, almost double | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
anybody else for New Zealand. But the Australians have kept quiet. And | :18:38. | :18:42. | |
I think the pressure can get to you, you can make a silly mistake. | :18:43. | :18:55. | |
The opening score by Kayla McAlister. You have got to give | :18:56. | :19:07. | |
that. This is class, holding the ball in | :19:08. | :19:15. | |
two hands, bringing them in and what a pass. Portia Woodman off the | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
field. Pelite over the line for Australia. When New Zealand took the | :19:21. | :19:32. | |
lead, Kayla McAlister scored and it has been Australia ever since. You | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
can see what Australia are the number one ranked team in the world. | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
This is top drawer rugby and a credit to both teams. I can't wait | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
for the second half. What a ten minutes for both sides, the gold | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
medal, the Olympics games, life changing moments for these women. -- | :19:51. | :19:58. | |
at the Olympic Games. Gayle Broughton is on for New Zealand. | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
They are covering while Portia Woodman it on the naughty chair. | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
They do this a lot, New Zealand, they take off Tyler McAlister which | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
is a real surprise. You don't want to be sitting there -- Kayla | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
McAlister. McAlister on the bench, that is a surprise to me. Gayle | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
Broughton is the new player. That is an easy one for her. A mistake by | :20:25. | :20:33. | |
Chloe Dalton and she has not done that much in this tournament. That | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
is a big error. She has been a wonderful restart kicker. You have | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
an extra player on the field, one woman up and you just hoof it into | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
touch. That is a big mistake. Tyla Nathan-Wong. Kelly Brazier, back to | :20:49. | :20:59. | |
Nathan-Wong. Frazier again, this is Gayle Broughton. -- Brazier. | :21:00. | :21:10. | |
Again, the Australian defence is good. Nathan-Wong to Sarah Goss. And | :21:11. | :21:43. | |
a big fend. What was the decision? Fair enough. Green comes away with | :21:44. | :21:53. | |
it, Ruby Tui did well to get back. Shannon Parry to Chloe Dalton. She | :21:54. | :21:59. | |
gets through the tackle of Nathan-Wong. They did well, New | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
Zealand. They have taken the clock down with Woodman off the field. | :22:06. | :22:14. | |
Gerry, cannot get a clean past -- Cherry. Not even a thought of doing | :22:15. | :22:25. | |
anything dainty. Good switch, excellent switch, good power from | :22:26. | :22:42. | |
Pelite. Dalton, Quirk. Cherry. Catholic, if she gets away nobody | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
will capture and nobody is going to catch Ellia Green! Australia extend | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
their lead in the gold medal final. What an outstanding try. I was | :22:54. | :23:01. | |
looking down at Portia Woodman stamping her feet. She knows she has | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
cost her side dear with that yellow card and she owes them now but what | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
a wonderful try. It was Caslick who set the scene. Just fantastic, what | :23:10. | :23:19. | |
a off-load. A beautiful pass to put in Ellia Green and a wonderful site, | :23:20. | :23:25. | |
the skill level of the Australians is fantastic. And this is an amazing | :23:26. | :23:31. | |
New Zealand team but it has been all Australia since Kayla McAlister | :23:32. | :23:36. | |
scored. They are back to full strength now and watch for some | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
fireworks from Portia Woodman. Chloe Dalton for the extra two and it is | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
good and that could be important because it takes the lead to 12 | :23:48. | :23:55. | |
points. New Zealand are back up to seven as Portia Woodman comes out of | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
the sin-bin. That try definitely came because of the extra woman on | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
the field. Australia stayed patient and did not panic and they got the | :24:06. | :24:11. | |
try that the sin-bin deserved. Sharni Williams Australia chases the | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
cake. Woodman knocks on as she comes back on the field and that will be | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
even more disgust for Portia Woodman. -- chases the kick. Just a | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
bit of mystery negation with Manuel in front her. You can the reaction | :24:29. | :24:36. | |
from the Australian bench. It is one of the great rivalries. Who says | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
sport isn't important? They have just changed | :24:41. | :24:54. | |
defensively,... Caslick to Quirk. Cherry, the switch to Ellia Green. | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
Back to Cherry, interception, all-important. Manuel. Here is Tyla | :25:01. | :25:12. | |
Nathan-Wong. Excellent defence. Penalty to Australia! It was all | :25:13. | :25:23. | |
because of the tackle. Chloe Dalton. Australia have been very impressive, | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
every single one of them, technically. Set piece, everybody | :25:28. | :25:35. | |
into position. It eats up a few seconds. Caslick, she could go on | :25:36. | :25:44. | |
her own and she does! It would not have been a final without a | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
contribution from the tournament's outstanding player, Charlotte | :25:50. | :25:56. | |
Caslick. I agree. I think this woman is the number one player in the | :25:57. | :25:59. | |
tournament, she is the difference between these teams. New Zealand | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
have Portia Woodman and Kayla McAlister but this lady is just | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
fantastic and there was no stopping her. She knew what she was doing the | :26:10. | :26:17. | |
moment she picked it up. Great athleticism, ball in two hands and | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
absolutely fantastic, and that is now a pretty commanding school with | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
four minutes to go. She spotted two forwards in front of her. Such an | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
amazing athlete and I'm so pleased for her and Australia that she has | :26:32. | :26:39. | |
brought her A game to the final. 24-5. New Zealand will keep going | :26:40. | :26:50. | |
but this, it is slightly one-sided. And interesting, Australia keeping | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
their main players on the field and not using their bench, they trust | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
these women. They have the fitness and power and they are keeping their | :26:59. | :27:06. | |
main team on. They brought it on -- brought on Ellia Green early on but | :27:07. | :27:09. | |
apart from that, all of that gun players are still out there. -- | :27:10. | :27:21. | |
their gun players. It is a rare rolled scrap for the ball and New | :27:22. | :27:27. | |
Zealand have it. They need to get it to Woodman. -- a rare old scrap. | :27:28. | :27:38. | |
Kelly Brazier, Tyler McAlister -- Kayla McAlister. | :27:39. | :27:42. | |
Ruby Tui. The burst down the middle. Nigel Williams, sister of Sonny Bill | :27:43. | :27:51. | |
-- Nigel . Really good tackle, Caslick with | :27:52. | :28:05. | |
another different type of tackle that just as meaningful as | :28:06. | :28:07. | |
Australia. Sarah Goss. Alicia Quirk with the | :28:08. | :28:26. | |
tackle on her. Nobody can stop McAlister as she goes over for New | :28:27. | :28:34. | |
Zealand's second try. It may come too late but McAlister has made her | :28:35. | :28:38. | |
mark on the final. She has made her mark on the whole tournament. | :28:39. | :28:43. | |
Another wonderful athlete. New Zealand were patient. We mentioned | :28:44. | :28:51. | |
Shannon Parry and Sharni Williams, they have been awesome for | :28:52. | :28:57. | |
Australia. The physical side of the Australian one and two, they have | :28:58. | :29:06. | |
been amazing. The only time I have seen a Miss. New Zealand are not | :29:07. | :29:14. | |
going to scored two tries from here but this has been a wonderful first | :29:15. | :29:21. | |
ever Olympic women's sevens final. A big kick-off for New Zealand now. | :29:22. | :29:27. | |
Slightly strange that Niall Williams, having come on, has gone | :29:28. | :29:30. | |
off quickly. Shakira Baker is on. Williams is back out there. She just | :29:31. | :29:47. | |
trotted over to that actualised. -- the touchline. They are going flat | :29:48. | :29:58. | |
out to the very end. Tyla Nathan Wong, Williams. Ellia Green with the | :29:59. | :30:10. | |
tackle. Furious players now, finding it difficult to get out after the | :30:11. | :30:14. | |
tackles. Kayla McAllister limps back into position. Quickly taken by | :30:15. | :30:17. | |
Sarah Goss. Woodman. Kelly Brazier leads it now for | :30:18. | :30:41. | |
Williams. New Zealand get a little bit ragged. Terina Te | :30:42. | :30:52. | |
Tamaki is on and amazingly this is her first outing of the sevens. | :30:53. | :30:58. | |
Portia Woodman, one of the great finishers, will have a say in the | :30:59. | :31:03. | |
final. 24 points to 15 for the moment. Australia lead. New | :31:04. | :31:08. | |
Zealand's third try. New Zealand score the last try. Players down | :31:09. | :31:15. | |
everywhere. Australia have conceded a try, but they are the ones who are | :31:16. | :31:24. | |
smiling, they are the champions of the first-ever Olympic sevens. | :31:25. | :31:27. | |
Thoroughly deserved. I do feel that Portia Woodman is absolutely bits | :31:28. | :31:32. | |
because, let's be honest, in this game you can't take a yellow card at | :31:33. | :31:37. | |
this level. We saw it with Team GB who had two early on and it cost | :31:38. | :31:41. | |
them dear. Portia Woodman, silly error, cost her team a lot. Just see | :31:42. | :31:47. | |
what this gold-medal means. A wonderful tournament. Portia Woodman | :31:48. | :31:53. | |
knows that her yellow card may have cost them. Tyla Nathan Wong, head | :31:54. | :32:01. | |
down, head down, knows that it is a losing cause for New Zealand. They | :32:02. | :32:05. | |
have lost to Australia in the final by 24-17. It is just interesting | :32:06. | :32:13. | |
that the Australian team has been put together for four years. They | :32:14. | :32:20. | |
were put together from netball players and other multitalented | :32:21. | :32:23. | |
athlete and they have come away with the gold medal. So typical for | :32:24. | :32:27. | |
Australia and New Zealand, they see a hint of a gold medal may put | :32:28. | :32:31. | |
wonderful teams together. It has been a huge privilege to be here for | :32:32. | :32:36. | |
this tournament. New Zealand have lost to Australia, Australia | :32:37. | :32:42. | |
champions women's sevens. Thank you very much to Eddie Butler | :32:43. | :32:47. | |
and Sir Clive Woodward. The first-ever women's sevens medal goes | :32:48. | :32:50. | |
to Australia and New Zealand take the silver. If you were watching one | :32:51. | :32:55. | |
hour ago on BBC Four, great disappointment for Team GB as they | :32:56. | :32:58. | |
were in the bronze medal match but they lost it by quite a margin as | :32:59. | :33:04. | |
well. 33-10 to the Canadians, who go away with the bronze. Let us get | :33:05. | :33:09. | |
reaction to Team GB who had high hopes coming into this tournament. | :33:10. | :33:13. | |
Afterwards we were talking to John Inverdale. | :33:14. | :33:19. | |
I can't begin to imagine the scale of the disappointment. Put it into | :33:20. | :33:24. | |
words. We weren't good enough tonight and only teams that were is | :33:25. | :33:28. | |
not deserve to win medals. We gave it everything but we came up short. | :33:29. | :33:33. | |
Can you rationalise, in the immediate aftermath, how today you | :33:34. | :33:36. | |
seem to have played two matches back-to-back that were not in the | :33:37. | :33:41. | |
level you would expect. That is sevens, it has happened all year on | :33:42. | :33:43. | |
the World Series, both men and women. It is a pretty brutal game | :33:44. | :33:47. | |
and you have to be on the money all of the time. We beat Canada | :33:48. | :33:51. | |
yesterday, we beat them in the knockout stages but fair play to | :33:52. | :33:54. | |
them they came out today and obviously played the way they wanted | :33:55. | :33:58. | |
to I got the result. You use the word brutality, that was a very | :33:59. | :34:01. | |
physical game and they outmuscled you in many ways, didn't they? Yes, | :34:02. | :34:06. | |
Canada are always very physical and the broader game to us and in sevens | :34:07. | :34:10. | |
if you are on the back foot you are onto a loss to start off with. We | :34:11. | :34:14. | |
gave it everything, couldn't have done much more. You know, our skill | :34:15. | :34:20. | |
level was not up to scratch that is what happens in sport unfortunately. | :34:21. | :34:24. | |
It will obviously scar your memories of your first Olympic Games. Has it | :34:25. | :34:28. | |
been a memorable experience for all of that? Yes, it's been awesome. To | :34:29. | :34:34. | |
bring rugby to a stage like this is phenomenal and to bring women's | :34:35. | :34:38. | |
rugby is even better. We have -- if we have inspired even when young | :34:39. | :34:41. | |
girl at home than we have done our job. Huge disappointment for Team GB | :34:42. | :34:47. | |
and Emily Scarratt and the men start their rugby sevens campaign tomorrow | :34:48. | :34:50. | |
and we will cover that for you. One thing to tidy up from earlier which | :34:51. | :34:54. | |
we showed you on BBC Four, we showed you Team GB taking on India in the | :34:55. | :35:00. | |
women's hockey. When we left it was 0-0, let us show you what happened | :35:01. | :35:04. | |
in the rest of that game. We will pick up with Matt Chilton and Mel | :35:05. | :35:16. | |
Clewlow. That was the first goal, on target | :35:17. | :35:22. | |
and beautifully executed. 1-0 to Great Britain. She is all over the | :35:23. | :35:37. | |
place around the shooting circle. Pushing her away to Waterford goal | :35:38. | :35:45. | |
and it is 2-0 to Great Britain. Danson has the ball and rolls it | :35:46. | :35:49. | |
across and the keeper makes a safe and Nick White has the final touch | :35:50. | :36:01. | |
from very close range 2-0. Ebola zero, Great Britain to hear, the | :36:02. | :36:06. | |
scoreline. That is bundled into the goal by Alex Danson. We sense that | :36:07. | :36:13. | |
there might be a few more before the end of this fixture. Fantastic | :36:14. | :36:19. | |
skills. Lily uses her speed with quick hands into the circle and uses | :36:20. | :36:24. | |
the backhand and Alex Danson will not miss from that far out. | :36:25. | :36:31. | |
That finished a few moments ago and let us see how it is looking in pool | :36:32. | :36:36. | |
B. Great Britain have won both of their Games and the USA are also on | :36:37. | :36:40. | |
six points with India also on just one. Australia were the best side | :36:41. | :36:46. | |
coming into these Games but they have no points and bottom of the | :36:47. | :36:50. | |
table. Another win for Team GB and Richie Passat is with the captain. | :36:51. | :36:56. | |
I am, a magnificent performance. Slightly different to the one | :36:57. | :37:00. | |
against Australia on Saturday. How do you rate this one in comparison? | :37:01. | :37:04. | |
Two very different sides had to play very different tactics to see that. | :37:05. | :37:09. | |
I think some really lovely good stuff and we wanted to pass the ball | :37:10. | :37:13. | |
and move the ball and if we wanted to do that and we did that it looked | :37:14. | :37:16. | |
beautiful and we were able to go through them but we have to keep | :37:17. | :37:19. | |
discipline and stay doing it for all of the 60 minutes. When you played | :37:20. | :37:25. | |
against Australia the intensity was good from start to finish, where | :37:26. | :37:29. | |
their lapses of concentration and good stuff as well? It is different | :37:30. | :37:35. | |
sides. Australia very intense so you have to be as well and India are on | :37:36. | :37:39. | |
and off themselves and you can sometimes get lowered into that so | :37:40. | :37:42. | |
we just talked before the game about staying in our style and playing our | :37:43. | :37:46. | |
game and we were disciplined and we did not give them too many good | :37:47. | :37:49. | |
chances so it was a disciplined performance. Some people in the lead | :37:50. | :37:54. | |
up to tonight 's match was complacency -- the main danger was | :37:55. | :37:57. | |
complacency after a good performance. You must be proud of | :37:58. | :38:02. | |
how everyone was playing. Yes, there was no way anyone will come out to | :38:03. | :38:05. | |
be complacent, we wouldn't stand for it and the coaching squad wouldn't | :38:06. | :38:10. | |
stand for it and the players back home with the Stanford. We go out | :38:11. | :38:15. | |
there with pride every time. Two out of two so far and expectations will | :38:16. | :38:20. | |
continue after every match. We don't think about expectation, we | :38:21. | :38:23. | |
concentrate on one game at a time and if anything it may improves | :38:24. | :38:28. | |
belief and momentum and if we can continue to build on belief and | :38:29. | :38:31. | |
momentum things will keep rolling us. I was chatting to Alex after the | :38:32. | :38:40. | |
match the other day and I was saying when I came up to Bishop MAPI how | :38:41. | :38:44. | |
focused at you or where and how good the spirit was. How does the spirit | :38:45. | :38:49. | |
compere here at rear compared to the others? Off the back of the London | :38:50. | :38:53. | |
cycle I think our culture is something we have worked hard off, | :38:54. | :38:57. | |
particularly in the last few years, we have spent many hours in meetings | :38:58. | :39:00. | |
and on the pitch, talking about our culture and what it is to be part of | :39:01. | :39:04. | |
this squad and how we behave and what is our gold-medal mentality and | :39:05. | :39:08. | |
it goes right throughout the team and all the support staff and that | :39:09. | :39:11. | |
is what we live for every single day. It shows on the field. You have | :39:12. | :39:16. | |
to show it on the pitch and off the pitch. You are certainly showing it | :39:17. | :39:20. | |
on the pitch at the moment. Good luck for the rest of the tournament. | :39:21. | :39:24. | |
Thank you. A perfect record so far for the Team | :39:25. | :39:28. | |
GB women hockey stars. We have 2.5 hours left for you on BBC Four with | :39:29. | :39:33. | |
loads to cram in. Thank you for being with us all evening with your | :39:34. | :39:38. | |
comments and questions. Do not forget to continue to send in via | :39:39. | :39:44. | |
social media. We will try to get through as many of the mass we can. | :39:45. | :39:49. | |
I am glad so many of you are enjoying the golden coconut. Only | :39:50. | :39:54. | |
one so far thanks to Adam Peaty but hopefully it will inspire a few more | :39:55. | :39:58. | |
and we should continue adding them to a hatstand in the course of the | :39:59. | :40:01. | |
next couple of weeks. It is day three of the Rio Games, high time | :40:02. | :40:10. | |
for the headlines. Gold for Japan in the men's team | :40:11. | :40:15. | |
gymnastics final, but huge disappointment for Team GB who miss | :40:16. | :40:24. | |
out on the medals and come forth. The first ever rugby sevens gold | :40:25. | :40:28. | |
medal goes to Australia, the favourites for the title beat New | :40:29. | :40:31. | |
Zealand, and again Team GB finish fourth, having lost their bronze | :40:32. | :40:38. | |
medal match to Canada. There have been two medals for Britain today. | :40:39. | :40:44. | |
The first of those came in the men's trap but Tom Daley and Dan | :40:45. | :40:47. | |
Goodfellow took bronze in the men's sink Road ten metre platform, and | :40:48. | :40:57. | |
they loved it. -- synchro before that Ed Ling did the business in | :40:58. | :41:01. | |
that trap shooting in his third Olympic Games. He just missed out on | :41:02. | :41:05. | |
the gold-medal match but he secured the bronze medal. Plenty more | :41:06. | :41:11. | |
available out there for you to watch if you don't fancy staying with us | :41:12. | :41:17. | |
on BBC Four, or beach volleyball is available on the BBC website and the | :41:18. | :41:21. | |
BBC sport app at the moment, furious brushing and grooming going on at | :41:22. | :41:24. | |
the moment and we will be like their later. Weightlifting finally is | :41:25. | :41:28. | |
available for you also on the website. The 62 kilograms and is | :41:29. | :41:35. | |
final with the world champion from China, who with their favourite | :41:36. | :41:39. | |
there. If you like basketball the dream team are in action and it | :41:40. | :41:42. | |
should be a fairly one-sided affair because they are taking on Venice | :41:43. | :41:46. | |
whaler. That is live on the BBC website. This is all available on | :41:47. | :41:52. | |
the BBC sport app, up to 24 live streams at once. You can follow it | :41:53. | :41:56. | |
on the app and it is a good place for you to get online. A full | :41:57. | :42:00. | |
schedule on their with everything that takes place every day, so you | :42:01. | :42:03. | |
can plan your viewing throughout the day. If you stick with us here on | :42:04. | :42:12. | |
BBC Four we will go to the Riocentro and a bit of boxing. We will start | :42:13. | :42:18. | |
with the welterweight distanced -- that we will start with the | :42:19. | :42:21. | |
welterweight division and Josh Kelly. He nearly fell out with | :42:22. | :42:26. | |
boxing entirely in the last few months. He put on a lot of weight | :42:27. | :42:31. | |
when his diet went out the window and the ever heart-to-heart with his | :42:32. | :42:35. | |
dad and decided to rededicate himself and he qualified in style | :42:36. | :42:41. | |
for these Rio Games. We will see him now in that bout with Walid Sedik | :42:42. | :42:48. | |
Mohamed. Our commentators are John Woodall Richie McIntosh. | :42:49. | :42:55. | |
What a terrific match. Joshua Kelley is 22 years of age and he has plenty | :42:56. | :43:02. | |
of supporters in attendance here. He makes his way towards the boxing | :43:03. | :43:12. | |
ring for his Olympic debut. The boxer in the blue corner, | :43:13. | :43:17. | |
representing eejit... Walid Sedik Mohamed. -- Egypt. His opponent is | :43:18. | :43:32. | |
Egypt 's Walid Sedik Mohamed. He will be 23 during the course of the | :43:33. | :43:36. | |
tournament, if he can make it through to the latter stages. That | :43:37. | :43:42. | |
would be a birthday present. Both of these men are making their first | :43:43. | :43:45. | |
appearance in the Olympic Games in this preliminary round contest. | :43:46. | :43:57. | |
Gentlemen, head up, no low blow. Check your hand. | :43:58. | :44:11. | |
Round one. The opening bell sounds in this 69 kilograms welterweight | :44:12. | :44:18. | |
contest. It is that the list -- it is the first preliminary round for | :44:19. | :44:23. | |
these boxers from Great Britain and Egypt. Josh Kelly operates out of | :44:24. | :44:27. | |
the orthodox stance and he is seventh in the world and the | :44:28. | :44:30. | |
reigning European Games bronze medallist from Azerbaijan last year. | :44:31. | :44:34. | |
The man who got through with a long looping right, which may have been | :44:35. | :44:39. | |
the inside of the glove, boxing out of the southpaw stance, is Walid | :44:40. | :44:43. | |
Sedik Mohamed, 22 years of age and racked at number 22 in the world. | :44:44. | :44:47. | |
Both of these men are competing in the first Olympic Games here and Rio | :44:48. | :44:54. | |
2016. Josh Kelly is a very talented boxer indeed, very fast reactions. | :44:55. | :45:00. | |
He has got to use his jab in this contest with this southpaw opponent | :45:01. | :45:04. | |
but he will tie and trigger his opponent off and come back with the | :45:05. | :45:10. | |
light -- man right hook. He has to use his jab here. Fast reactions | :45:11. | :45:14. | |
gone in and out with the feet and he has to work at a high tempo because | :45:15. | :45:19. | |
occasionally he can lapse a little bit and that is when he lets his | :45:20. | :45:24. | |
opponents back in. A nice fast tempo and a high work rate and he will be | :45:25. | :45:28. | |
OK here. Good movement, bending at the waist and is dipping down to | :45:29. | :45:32. | |
avoid the shot although he is given a ticking off by the referee and a | :45:33. | :45:38. | |
reminder to keep his head up. Josh Kelly from Sunderland is coached in | :45:39. | :45:43. | |
the sport by his father. Quite an arduous road to qualification. That | :45:44. | :45:47. | |
is a cracking left hand by Mohamed, catching Kelly of -- Andy had to | :45:48. | :45:55. | |
reassume his boxing stars. The boxes in this style with his legs played | :45:56. | :45:59. | |
wide and is an stand by his beltline, because he does back the | :46:00. | :46:02. | |
tremendous reflexes that he possesses but he is walking into a | :46:03. | :46:05. | |
threshing machine blue leather here but he got through with two | :46:06. | :46:10. | |
wonderful straight punches and the arcing punches, being beaten to the | :46:11. | :46:13. | |
punches is the man in blue and two wonderful bow legged punches to the | :46:14. | :46:21. | |
by Josh Kelly. Kelly of the more direct in his opening round with | :46:22. | :46:25. | |
these shots and Mohamed is more wild, swinging the shots and Kelly | :46:26. | :46:29. | |
has to keep their hands down a block those swings and books that are | :46:30. | :46:32. | |
trying to come round the corner and keep the punches straight, trigger | :46:33. | :46:35. | |
his opponent off with the jab and adjust the feet and bring him on to | :46:36. | :46:38. | |
the right hand. Josh Kelly went through to the World | :46:39. | :46:52. | |
Championships which was a route to qualifications but he lost in the | :46:53. | :46:57. | |
quarterfinal to the eventual champion from Morocco. Cyrus | :46:58. | :47:00. | |
Pattinson was given the nod for the European qualification tournament. | :47:01. | :47:07. | |
And at the global qualifier at Baku in Azerbaijan, that is where Kelly | :47:08. | :47:11. | |
secured his Olympic place after Pattinson could not do so at the | :47:12. | :47:15. | |
first opportunity. A terrific opening round from the man in red. | :47:16. | :47:20. | |
He has produced a lovely bit of skill at the end of the round, | :47:21. | :47:24. | |
telling come in and out with his feet, what he should be doing. -- | :47:25. | :47:31. | |
Kelly, in and out with his feet. He got caught by one of those wild | :47:32. | :47:37. | |
swings so he has to keep his hand up when his opponent is launching those | :47:38. | :47:40. | |
attacks but it was a lovely straight right hand -- left hand. Lovely shot | :47:41. | :47:48. | |
from Kelly. Mohamed tries to come back but he did not hit the target. | :47:49. | :47:53. | |
Let's look at the scores. Across the board for Kelly, a great start. A | :47:54. | :47:57. | |
very good start for the welterweight. 10-9 across the board, | :47:58. | :48:05. | |
all of the judges favouring the work from the man in red. | :48:06. | :48:12. | |
Into the second round. 28 boxers contesting this welterweight | :48:13. | :48:21. | |
tournament so the eventual gold medallist did not receive up by -- a | :48:22. | :48:42. | |
bye. That was a good left hook from Kelly will stop and a double left | :48:43. | :48:48. | |
hook, body and then head. Nice work from Kelly. He has to keep the jab | :48:49. | :48:55. | |
going to keep his opponent off balance and trigger the attacks from | :48:56. | :49:01. | |
Mohamed. His hands are a bit slow but he is still dangerous, the man | :49:02. | :49:05. | |
in blue. It is all about concentration from Kelly, bringing | :49:06. | :49:13. | |
him on the right hand. Switching to the southpaw stance momentarily. | :49:14. | :49:19. | |
After the World Championships in Doha where he had a quarterfinal | :49:20. | :49:26. | |
finish, he was plagued by and trouble during his time out, said he | :49:27. | :49:31. | |
was living a regular, young man's life. His weight ballooned with the | :49:32. | :49:37. | |
social activity that entailed. He could not train or punch. Good work | :49:38. | :49:43. | |
again. He became frustrated and a bit despondent as he makes Mohamed | :49:44. | :49:48. | |
Miss rather badly. Good evasive manoeuvres but he got his head back | :49:49. | :49:52. | |
together after a heart to heart with his father as he got back down to | :49:53. | :49:58. | |
his fighting weight and grab the opportunity of Olympic qualification | :49:59. | :50:02. | |
when it came his way in Baku. Making his man Ms badly. Mohamed had to | :50:03. | :50:10. | |
change things around if he is going to win this contest. His feet are | :50:11. | :50:17. | |
too slow. He had an opponent who is drawing him onto shots. Mohamed is | :50:18. | :50:23. | |
content to sit back. Kelly is too quick and direct. We need a change | :50:24. | :50:29. | |
from Mohamed if he is going to be successful. Good work to the body | :50:30. | :50:35. | |
once again from Kelly, terrific leverage in those left hooks to the | :50:36. | :50:44. | |
body from the man in blue. And again, Mohamed continuing to punch | :50:45. | :50:49. | |
in wide, arcane fashion and Kelly is beating him to the punch with shots | :50:50. | :50:55. | |
straight down the pipe -- arcing fashion. Kelly is boxing well now. | :50:56. | :51:02. | |
He has to keep his distance, doesn't have to be working on the inside | :51:03. | :51:05. | |
against this dangerous opponent because you can pick up a cut. He is | :51:06. | :51:11. | |
winning the contest. The head is nearly clashed, Josh Kelly has to | :51:12. | :51:17. | |
watch it. For me he has won that second round as well. The British | :51:18. | :51:27. | |
fans in attendance think so. You have got to punch, adjust and punch | :51:28. | :51:35. | |
again. Some good action again from Kelly although he gets caught with | :51:36. | :51:40. | |
that left hand over the top from Mohamed. That was a lovely straight | :51:41. | :51:46. | |
left hand and then he is back to safety will | :51:47. | :51:48. | |
rather than staying in punching range. That was a good shop from | :51:49. | :51:55. | |
Mohamed. 10-9 across the board once again and | :51:56. | :52:07. | |
Josh Kelly is in a commanding position going into the third and | :52:08. | :52:08. | |
final round. And into it we go. The man wearing | :52:09. | :52:20. | |
red, Josh Kelly of Great Britain, in a commanding position after taking | :52:21. | :52:25. | |
the first two rounds from all three judges using the ten point system. | :52:26. | :52:31. | |
And I'm sure that Mohamed and his corner at a sense of that but he is | :52:32. | :52:36. | |
continuing to punch in arcing fashion and Kelly is beating him | :52:37. | :52:42. | |
with straight punches down the pipe. It is clever punching, he is | :52:43. | :52:46. | |
maintaining the gap, his corner would have told him to box sensibly | :52:47. | :52:51. | |
and he will win the contest. Don't get involved and that is what he is | :52:52. | :52:55. | |
doing, heating and moving backward and maintaining the gap. Cracking | :52:56. | :52:58. | |
right hand from Kelly -- Kelly has been carrying out the | :52:59. | :53:19. | |
instructions to a tee so far. Concentration will be absolutely | :53:20. | :53:23. | |
crucial here. A good right hand and left hook before pivoting off from | :53:24. | :53:29. | |
Josh Kelly. Lovely shop right hand from Kelly, right down the middle. | :53:30. | :53:37. | |
But he has got to keep moving -- lovely straight right hand. But it | :53:38. | :53:42. | |
is the fighting spirit in the kid, he wants to impress. He has to save | :53:43. | :53:46. | |
his energy a little bit but he is doing well. He has to keep his head | :53:47. | :53:51. | |
out of harms way as they rumble at close range in centre ring. He has | :53:52. | :53:59. | |
got to play safe now, hit and read and keep the gap. Cracking right | :54:00. | :54:05. | |
hand once again. Stopping the Mohamed in his tracks. Once more | :54:06. | :54:11. | |
they continue to engage in this toe to toe exchange. Cracking right | :54:12. | :54:21. | |
uppercut from Kelly. Remember, he has got to make a point in insured | :54:22. | :54:25. | |
but he is producing a terrific display in the third and final | :54:26. | :54:32. | |
round. He is keen to hold on to gain some respite from the hard shots he | :54:33. | :54:37. | |
is shipping. The difference is the speed of punch from Kelly, a lot | :54:38. | :54:41. | |
better than his opponent who is still dangerous but a little bit | :54:42. | :54:47. | |
wild and inaccurate. Kelly is more direct and sharper. A little bit | :54:48. | :54:54. | |
tired now and that is to be expected, his first contest. He will | :54:55. | :54:58. | |
have been nervous beforehand. When you get the first one out of the | :54:59. | :55:04. | |
way, you are up and running. Mohamed progressed the tournament by | :55:05. | :55:07. | |
finishing in silver medal position in the African qualification | :55:08. | :55:12. | |
tournament. That was an untidy tangle. Despite having progressed to | :55:13. | :55:19. | |
Rio, one suspects his Olympic experience is going to come to an | :55:20. | :55:23. | |
end in the first preliminary round because Josh Kelly of Great Britain | :55:24. | :55:27. | |
has produced a terrific display led by tee points going into the third | :55:28. | :55:33. | |
and final round and producing perhaps his best round of the | :55:34. | :55:36. | |
contest in terms of the power that he could land. It was an aggressive | :55:37. | :55:44. | |
round. He mixed it up a little bit more. Not a perfect round, I thought | :55:45. | :55:50. | |
the first two were better, but you are right, he put his shots together | :55:51. | :55:54. | |
in terms of the power and took a few more risks. It was a lovely left | :55:55. | :55:59. | |
hook and right hand. His best power shots were probably in that last | :56:00. | :56:08. | |
round. The judges will be pleased. Ladies and gentlemen, the winner by | :56:09. | :56:17. | |
unanimous decision... In the red corner... Joshua Kelly! Joshua Kelly | :56:18. | :56:28. | |
has his arm raised in victory. Acknowledging a terrific Olympic | :56:29. | :56:33. | |
debut, the fans in the crowd here absolutely delighted because Joshua | :56:34. | :56:38. | |
Kelly is through to the second preliminary round of the men's | :56:39. | :56:43. | |
welterweight tournament here. But it will not get any easier because | :56:44. | :56:47. | |
waiting in the next round is the second seed and the number one | :56:48. | :56:53. | |
ranked boxer in the world from Kazakhstan Open but this has been a | :56:54. | :56:59. | |
terrific Olympic debut. A unanimous decision over Mohamed from Egypt. | :57:00. | :57:11. | |
That must have eased your nerves. I wasn't my normal self, I have just | :57:12. | :57:20. | |
come off a viral infection, no excuses, but I feel good. I'm ready | :57:21. | :57:27. | |
to go again. You're not at full strength? I felt it. I was boxing | :57:28. | :57:32. | |
with my hands down that in the last round I was mixing it. I did not | :57:33. | :57:39. | |
feel as sharp as normal. You got a bronze medal at the Europeans last | :57:40. | :57:44. | |
year but at the beginning of this year it wasn't certain that you | :57:45. | :57:50. | |
would make it here. I was on the way out boxing. To get here is an | :57:51. | :58:01. | |
achievement in itself. . And the fans appreciated it. I have got | :58:02. | :58:06. | |
loads here so that is good. It's all good. And how will you prepare for | :58:07. | :58:17. | |
the next fight? I will try to relax. I am glad I got out of the ring | :58:18. | :58:21. | |
rust. That will sharpen me up for Thursday. I want to give a shout out | :58:22. | :58:28. | |
to the people who are supporting back home. Especially Josie who will | :58:29. | :58:30. | |
be watching. All the best. Congratulations to Josh Kelly who | :58:31. | :58:42. | |
has a huge bout against the world number one in a few days. We will | :58:43. | :58:47. | |
have a bit more boxing later with Anthony Fowler, the cousin of Robbie | :58:48. | :58:52. | |
Fowler, he is up shortly. We showed you early on the that the rugby | :58:53. | :58:57. | |
sevens gold medal went to Australia. The medal ceremony is just taking | :58:58. | :59:02. | |
place. These are the silver medal is going out to New Zealand and you | :59:03. | :59:06. | |
could see their disappointment. They felt they had a real chance of | :59:07. | :59:11. | |
claiming gold and there are still some tears from some of the New | :59:12. | :59:15. | |
Zealand players. We showed you deep bronze medal match earlier. Team GB, | :59:16. | :59:23. | |
despite beating Canada, lost their bronze medal match. Canada get the | :59:24. | :59:32. | |
bronze but it is New Zealand to win the silver and Australia, the | :59:33. | :59:37. | |
favourites, they got rid of New Zealand in the gold-medal match, | :59:38. | :59:40. | |
they dispatched them quite easily. They took the gold medal, the first | :59:41. | :59:44. | |
time a rugby sevens medal has been handed out at an Olympic Games. We | :59:45. | :59:48. | |
still have the men's tournament to look forward to but we can get some | :59:49. | :59:53. | |
reaction from one of those gold medallists, Charlotte Caslick who | :59:54. | :59:58. | |
talked to John Inverdale afterwards. That is probably the biggest smile | :59:59. | :00:02. | |
in South America! It was amazing. To look up and see our name there, it | :00:03. | :00:05. | |
was so special. It was fast and physical at the | :00:06. | :00:20. | |
Spectator 's game. When you play a team in black, how much motivation | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
is there for you? Australia and New Zealand have a rivalry that goes | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
back in Rugby union and there is definitely that may have been the | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
best team in the world for the last couple of seasons and we always try | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
to match that and this season we have been able to do that. When they | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
announced they would have rugby sevens in the Olympic Games, did you | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
immediately think you would have your eye on that? I wasn't playing | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
rugby at the time so it wasn't on my mind. I was playing touch football | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
so as soon as I came across to Rugby, the Olympics was the drawcard | :00:53. | :00:58. | |
that got me there. What has the experience been like? You've topped | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
off with a gold medal. It has been the best experience of my life, we | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
are so lucky to be in a team sport and do it with 11 of my best mates | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
are my family is here and my boyfriend is here and hopefully the | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
boys go well tomorrow and finish on a high. The atmosphere? Amazing. We | :01:14. | :01:21. | |
have Kiwis and Aussies the atmosphere will always be great. I | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
imagine you will celebrate for a long time, are you saying the whole | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
Games? Yes, we are lucky our Olympic Village -- committee lets stay for | :01:31. | :01:38. | |
the whole thing. An Olympic party! The medal ceremony is still going | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
on, it could be the longest medal ceremony of the Olympics. It has | :01:45. | :01:51. | |
been going for 50 minutes so far. Bill Bowman is the chairman of world | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
rugby, one person hand that the metal and then he comes out and | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
hands out the little memento, a little flour to go along with the | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
medal, I think that is why it is probably on to somewhere near the | :02:05. | :02:16. | |
second hour. We might bring you some of the Australian national anthem | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
later because it is a good one but we will go back to the boxing now. | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
We promised you throughout the evening we would are you some | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
British success and we have already seen Josh Kelly win in the | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
welterweight division. This time we will look at Antony Fowler. He is | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
the Commonwealth gold medal winning boxer from two years ago and he has | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
a big chance -- task ahead of him. He is taking on a great athlete from | :02:44. | :02:53. | |
Kazakhstan. I wonder how he will get on. We will find out with our | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
commentary team. Breathing in the atmosphere as he | :02:59. | :03:14. | |
enters the boxing arena for the first time in 2016. He says he has | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
trained his whole life for this moment and now the moment is about | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
to become a reality. He is preparing to make his Olympic debut, the | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
Olympic Games reigning gold medallist, the three times national | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
champion from England. He is receiving final instructions ahead | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
of his Olympic bout. The opening bell sounds in the 75 | :03:43. | :03:59. | |
kilograms middleweight division. It is between boxers from Great Britain | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
and Kazakhstan and this is very much a case of unfinished business | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
because these two men were scheduled to meet in the semifinals of the 20 | :04:07. | :04:15. | |
13th World Championships in Kazakhstan three years ago, but a | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
hand injury prevented Antony Fowler from taking part in that competition | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
and he came away with a World Championship bronze medal while | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
Zhanibek Alimkhanuly went on after the walkover victory to prevail in | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
the gold-medal bout and come away with a World Championship gold on | :04:35. | :04:41. | |
home soil in Kazakhstan. It doesn't get much tougher than this. It is a | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
tough draw against the former world champion. The only other top drawer | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
in this division would be Lopez, the Cuban, he would be one to avoid but | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
this cow that is an extremely capable opponent. Antony Fowler is | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
ready for him and he has to concentrate on the right and most | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
certainly as he comes forward and use it as a straight right and shop | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
downstairs, the whipping right into the midriff of his opponent would | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
work also. He has to trigger the attack. Right hand to the body | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
attempted by Fowler, wasn't too away. When the draw came out and | :05:21. | :05:29. | |
those who watch plenty of Olympic style boxing knew what a tall order | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
this opening round contest was going to be against the 2013 world | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
champion. That wasn't too far off the mark and he is using the right | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
and to good effect in this round. Fowler said if you want to be the | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
best you have to beat the best and he has no qualms of mixing it with a | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
top operators in the middleweight division because that is how he | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
regards himself, as he lands a cracking right hand on Zhanibek | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
Alimkhanuly. Good tactics from Fowler at the moment. We know | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
Anthony has quite slow feet, that is his style and stammer and read so | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
here you need to bring Alimkhanuly onto the shots so it is important | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
that uses the jab and triggers his opponent off but he has to get his | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
accuracy and timing together here tonight, with the right hand as his | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
opponent comes forward. Crucial that he throws it and gets the timing | :06:21. | :06:33. | |
right. Good counter left hand by Alimkhanuly. Two shots I'll vote by | :06:34. | :06:34. | |
the man in red. -- Salve fists of slurry by Fowler and | :06:35. | :06:53. | |
repelled by Alimkhanuly. It is a good exchange in the closing stages | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
of this opening round. A good round of boxing with both men enjoying | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
moments of success. It was a good entered around for Antony Fowler. | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
This fella had some success as well but Fowler ended around well. That | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
will impress the judges. It is a fairly close round. Paul Walmsley | :07:13. | :07:19. | |
will be in that corner, giving the instructions. This shot is what I'm | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
talking about with the timing and the accuracy whereas your opponent | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
is coming forward. We can't afford to miss. Let us look at the scores. | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
Across the board they are favouring Alimkhanuly who takes the opening | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
round in a unanimous fashion for all three of the scoring judges. Second | :07:37. | :07:48. | |
out! Round two. We move into the second | :07:49. | :07:59. | |
round of this 75 kilograms middleweight bout between boxers | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
make an Olympic debuts. A cracking left hand and Fowler is in trouble | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
and he is on the canvas. Some forceful books have put Fowler on | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
unsteady legs. He rises up and he indicates to the referee here is OK. | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
He says he slipped but he took some heavy leather there from the man in | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
red. He is looking to hold on. He took some big shots there so he is | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
trying to grab Alimkhanuly to bide a little bit more time and have a bit | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
more the breeze to help him out. He has to regain his composure here, | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
Antony Fowler. A blistering start by Alimkhanuly to this second round. | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
The first shots into stunning round -- stud Fowler and Wally was a | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
stationary target Alimkhanuly landed a couple more shots in a very | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
effective combination. Watch out for the right look as his opponent comes | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
forward. That is the shot tears falling -- throwing. Fowler has got | :08:56. | :09:02. | |
to get the right and left hook into play here. I am not sure his | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
balances back beneath him fully. We went forward on a previous foray and | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
his footwork was not as adept as it normally years and one wonders how | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
badly hurt has he been by that combination which forced him to | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
touch down. Approaching the midpoint of the second round, Fowler has to | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
get his head clear and his leg back beneath him. It is worth pointing | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
out that a trip to the canvas in Olympic style boxing, no longer | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
referred to as amateur, of course, but it doesn't necessarily result in | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
a 10-8 around so even though he is in an awkward place he could be | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
still in the contest, it will not necessarily be 10-8 - house. He | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
camera compete over this remaining minute. He got caught on the back of | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
his head there and the referee pointed that out to Alimkhanuly. It | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
is not a bad shot downstairs from the Kazakhstan but Fowler comes back | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
and he has to get his jab into play and set up with the right-hander | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
wait for him to come back with the front foot and then throw the shot | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
and throw the right hand. He doesn't want to be overreaching and making | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
mistakes. He just has to wait. He hesitated there and it shouldn't be | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
doing that, let the fella, and hit as it comes. That's knock-down and | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
the subsequent success that he has enjoyed, we have seen in box in the | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
comfort zone right now adheres oozing confidence, hands down by his | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
beltline, up on his toes, moving laterally left and right, and he is | :10:35. | :10:42. | |
receiving plenty of support. Fowler tries to be roused by the fans as | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
well, working away with his free right hand as Alimkhanuly finds | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
himself in an untidy tangle. The ten second clapper is barely audible in | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
the cacophonous din here in the Olympic boxing arena. A torrid rout | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
by Fowler. He raises his right arm in celebration almost by reflex but | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
there can be little doubt that it will be Alimkhanuly who has taken | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
the second round. The question is what will the margin be on the | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
scorecards? It was a tough round for him, wasn't it? Paul | :11:13. | :11:35. | |
Walmsley in that corner. Let us look at the start of the round, big shop | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
there, that was the left-hander many walks onto another one. As it comes | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
forward he walks onto two shots there, there is the first and there | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
is a second one coming up. We just walks on and then he regained his | :11:45. | :11:46. | |
composure but he gets caught again with the left-hand. Just | :11:47. | :11:48. | |
overreaching. I spoke about it before when you're overreaching and | :11:49. | :11:50. | |
you walk onto shots like that. Just have a look. Fowler trailed by 34 | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
judges B and C and by two for the other judge. Going into the third | :11:55. | :12:05. | |
and final round Antony Fowler was tagged by another jab from the | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
manner in blue and he has a proverbial mountain to climb because | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
the man who was crowned world champion in 2013 is trailing by | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
three points, 20-17 after being knocked down heavily in the second | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
round and takes another strong southpaw left. The man in red is in | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
complete control now and Fowler needs to do something dramatic and | :12:27. | :12:29. | |
different but he just receives another whipping left-hand uppercut | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
from Alimkhanuly. It is very difficult now for Antony Fowler | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
commie has quite a slow rhythm with his feet but he has to change | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
tactics or do something different. You get caught again there, but it | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
becomes forwarding crosses his feet like that he could walk onto bigger | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
shots. It is a tough task for Antony Fowler he has to find a power shot | :12:51. | :12:57. | |
from somewhere. Antony Fowler, the three-time national champion for | :12:58. | :12:59. | |
England, Great Britain National tile -- titles under his belt after a | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
glittering career from the cadet level all the way through to senior | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
level. He has dubbed USB experience in season three, five and six as | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
well and he was up against an accomplished operator here in | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
Alimkhanuly who put his nose in front in a decisive fashion, what | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
could be a decisive fashion, during the course of that second round. | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
That hit home against Fowler 's chin and his legs seemed to be unsteady. | :13:30. | :13:36. | |
It is coming from his waist and he is swinging over the top. He is full | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
of confidence now, Alimkhanuly, his movement is excellent and he is just | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
throwing that left-hand, honing in on the target of Antony Fowler. But | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
Fowler, listen, he will give it everything this kid. He's full of | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
grit and determination. Make no mistake about that. Never say die | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
attitude he has got. He is exhibiting at right now. Both of | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
these men, Fowler hits the man on the back of his head as the -- | :14:06. | :14:11. | |
Alimkhanuly turns its back. Both of these men came through to the that | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
-- in Olympic by virtue of qualifying events. Alimkhanuly one | :14:18. | :14:24. | |
of the Asian and O Xian tournament and Fowler came through a torrid | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
tournament and he laid on everything on the line to get his place here to | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
get a place at Rio 2016. This has proved to be a very difficult draw | :14:37. | :14:43. | |
and this is an almost insurmountable task. The crowd are absolutely | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
jubilant because the reigning Asian Games gold medallist, Zhanibek | :14:50. | :14:51. | |
Alimkhanuly, has produced a wonderful performance here. To | :14:52. | :14:57. | |
nullify and neutralise the effectiveness of Antony Fowler and | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
he is given a nod of respect. Fowler knows, as we all know, that his | :15:02. | :15:05. | |
Olympic experience is going to come to an end here in the opening round | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
of the 75 kilograms middleweight tournament. We gave it everything, | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
but he was badly hurt in the course of that second round and Alimkhanuly | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
with his nose in front produced a fantastic boxing display for the | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
remainder of the contest. The left-hand over the top that comes | :15:21. | :15:30. | |
from nowhere, does it come from Alimkhanuly in that last round, a | :15:31. | :15:32. | |
boxed sensibly with lovely shots like that in the last minute and he | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
stayed on the back foot because he knew we had done his job. It was a | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
tough draw. Look at the draw again, you have to to avoid the Cuban, | :15:40. | :15:45. | |
Lopez, or Alimkhanuly but unfortunately for Fowler he drew | :15:46. | :15:51. | |
Alimkhanuly. Alimkhanuly is number four in the world and seeded five in | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
the tournament and Antony Fowler list is not his night so let us get | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
the official announcement. Ladies and gentlemen, the winner, by | :16:02. | :16:11. | |
unanimous decision... Zhanibek Alimkhanuly. | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
Antony Fowler embraces his conqueror with a warm hug at the conclusion of | :16:18. | :16:26. | |
three torrid rounds in this 75 kilograms middleweight division. His | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
Olympic dream comes to an end in the first round of the men's tournament | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
but the man bowing to all sides of the arena and taking the applause of | :16:36. | :16:42. | |
the ground, Zhanibek Alimkhanuly, he goes through to the second round and | :16:43. | :16:45. | |
Antony Fowler is eliminated in his opening bout of the tournament. | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
Heartbreak for the man from Liverpool who gave it everything but | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
it was not good enough on his Olympic debut. Not the result you | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
would have wanted but how did you assess it? I came out well and | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
started boxing nice, I won the first round, second round he caught me | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
heavy and that changed the fight. I was chasing about a bit. That is | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
where it went wrong. But apart from that, I did all right committee is | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
world champion and I mixed it with him. It shows you how tough the draw | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
can be. Europe at the fifth seed in the opening bout. And he is world | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
champion, I knew it would be a difficult fight. It's just the way | :17:29. | :17:37. | |
it goes. How much did the injuries you said that in the run-up effect | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
your fitness and form? I was a bit daft, I was on it quad bike. It was | :17:43. | :17:49. | |
a stupid error bought up my shoulder has been sought for two months. I've | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
got no one to blame but myself. What next? I will take a bit of time off | :17:54. | :18:00. | |
and then turn professional. Can you tell us who you might be signing | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
for? Whoever gives me the most money! That's fair enough! | :18:05. | :18:13. | |
To see him smiling. We will try to bring you the fight from Lawrence | :18:14. | :18:19. | |
Okolie before we go off air. But took up boxing would you like to see | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
some live circuit training on the beach? It is going on behind us. It | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
has just gone eight o'clock at night. This has been going on for | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
about 20 minutes. It does become a bit more active. The fellow in the | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
green top is the leader. Can you see that muscle vest behind? That has | :18:43. | :18:52. | |
got to be one of the great vest! He's having a water break. There is | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
some excellent lunging going on. Not sure what's in the backpack but it | :18:59. | :19:06. | |
looks unique. I suppose Copacabana beach is not a bad gym. We often | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
tell you how busy it is through the day and during the night as well. | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
There is a game I want to bring you live which is called fresco ball. It | :19:16. | :19:27. | |
is about having a partner I'm told and the end of the game is not | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
trying to beat the person you are hitting the ball at but to keep the | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
rally going and some of them get quite close and they leather it at | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
each other! Thank you for all of your messages. We are using the | :19:40. | :19:47. | |
hashtag BBC Rio 2016. A lot of people are interested in our golden | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
coconuts. If you are just joining us, every time somebody from Team GB | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
went a gold medal, we will scrape it Best spray-painted a coconut and | :19:58. | :20:04. | |
have the winner on. And we will get a member of the crowd to come up and | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
plant it on our stand. We have made a sign and everything and hopefully | :20:11. | :20:14. | |
by the end we will have quite a collection of coconuts. Tom has been | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
in touch. We were saying that this is normally called fisherman's | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
corner but he says he has spent the last ten minutes looking for a | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
frozen food item called Fisherman's corner but to no avail. Maybe we | :20:28. | :20:35. | |
could launch that! And the tall Guy says come all this talk about the | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
rugby sevens and the gymnasts finishing in fourth place, don't | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
panic, worst joke so far, hopefully Team GB can go forth and prosper. | :20:45. | :20:53. | |
That is just useless. But I think it does class as Copaca-banter! You can | :20:54. | :21:09. | |
follow us on BBC One as well. We are trying to bring you up to date with | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
everything on BBC Four and we will have that Lawrence Okolie fight | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
later but Shirley Robertson is covering the sailing for us and we | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
will have an update on what has been happening in the sailing. Down the | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
other end of the beach is Sugarloaf Mountain and on the other side of | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
that is where the sailing is taking place. And there are ten disciplines | :21:35. | :21:44. | |
in sailing. If you look at the standings and the build-up, eight of | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
the ten categories, Team GB had a good shout of a medal. The first day | :21:49. | :21:53. | |
was today and Shirley Robinson can bring us up to date. | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
The Olympic sailing has kicked off in the beautiful when Boro babe with | :21:58. | :22:07. | |
ten medals up for grabs. In Sydney, Athens and Beijing Team GB held the | :22:08. | :22:15. | |
top spot -- Guanabara Bay. And there is a new group of talent here in | :22:16. | :22:24. | |
Rio. It is day one of the sailing and we have four event starting with | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
the winter thing for men and women and the single-handed men and women | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
with all four classes giving is realistic medal hopes. We have Nick | :22:33. | :22:37. | |
Dempsey who will be our most decorated Olympian, he has been to | :22:38. | :22:41. | |
the games five tonnes but his first Saint Sydney and he has won eight | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
silver medal in 2012 and a bronze or swell orthopaedist looking for a | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
gold to complete his set. Bryony Shaw got bronze in Beijing, a bit | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
under the weather for London so did not get the result she wanted but | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
she is determined to go better. And in the later events, men and women, | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
we are actually the world champion in both of those events -- laser. | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
Nick Thompson has a great opportunity to get on the podium. | :23:11. | :23:18. | |
Four tatters, four solid prospect and Nick Dempsey is looking for a | :23:19. | :23:20. | |
complete set of Olympic medals. To come back for a fifth Olympics, | :23:21. | :23:35. | |
that is quite a feat. You must have felt that you still had it in you to | :23:36. | :23:42. | |
win a gold medal. I think that comes and goes sometimes I do and | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
sometimes I don't but at the moment I do which is great but maybe a year | :23:48. | :23:53. | |
ago might have... I might have come if I was on said it was difficult. | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
Just to get to where you know you have to be to win a gold medal, it | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
is a pretty high level. And I haven't always thought it was | :24:04. | :24:06. | |
possible but right now I feel brilliant and I'm sailing better | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
than ever probably lost its good. Sometimes it's good and sometimes | :24:12. | :24:17. | |
it's difficult. Talk to me about the form guide in the RS:X men. And how | :24:18. | :24:25. | |
you are sitting. It depends who you ask! There are probably six people | :24:26. | :24:32. | |
here who can win and it is a question of who put the best week | :24:33. | :24:35. | |
together and who can rise to the challenge. After 20 years of Olympic | :24:36. | :24:45. | |
sailing, how exciting is this moment just before you are about to go out | :24:46. | :24:53. | |
and start? A lot more exciting than I thought it would be. It is all | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
possible and that is exciting to me and I am definitely in a good place | :25:00. | :25:08. | |
right now. A calm and confident Nick Dempsey who began his quest for gold | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
at 1pm and he was in emphatic form, leading the first race from start to | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
finish. We join it in the second race at halfway with commentary from | :25:17. | :25:18. | |
Ian Walker and Niall Myant is. Nick Dempsey very confident about | :25:19. | :25:29. | |
his strategy, he knows he wants the left-hand side and he is happy to be | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
the furthest out to the left. And you can see some of the laser men is | :25:35. | :25:42. | |
out on the course. They are now getting a bit tangled up in the | :25:43. | :25:50. | |
other courses. Byron Kokkalanis of Greece pushes the racing right to | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
the left-hand side, hard over on the left-hand side of the course. And a | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
quick tack and he holds onto second place at the moment. Nick Dempsey of | :26:03. | :26:10. | |
Great Britain is leading the second race in the men's windsurfing. A | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
quick look behind to see who is following but the only boat nearby | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
is Byron Kokkalanis of Greece but look at the distance, there is | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
nobody putting pressure on Dempsey at the moment. He just looks so | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
casual. I get when you have been doing it for 20 years at the highest | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
level, that is what you look like. He has got a commanding lead in the | :26:35. | :26:41. | |
race at the moment. One tack onto starboard. And he wanted the board | :26:42. | :26:47. | |
up into the top of the course for the final time, the run to the | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
bottom of the course and into the finish. All that is standing between | :26:52. | :26:59. | |
him and another race victory. Nick Dempsey of Great Britain makes his | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
way down to the bottom of the course. And the second race of the | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
men's windsurfing goes the wake of the 35-year-old British sailor as | :27:11. | :27:15. | |
Nick Dempsey takes another victory in Rio. | :27:16. | :27:19. | |
He almost made it three in the third and final race but at the finish for | :27:20. | :27:26. | |
second behind Dorian van Rijsselberghe. What a great day for | :27:27. | :27:34. | |
Nick Dempsey, two first and second, a great start to his regatta. It was | :27:35. | :27:42. | |
a dream start really. I had good start off the line but I was just | :27:43. | :27:48. | |
fast so that's good, it's brilliant. If you are fast and out in front, it | :27:49. | :27:53. | |
is pretty simple also but we are three races into a 13 race series | :27:54. | :27:58. | |
but it is a confidence builder. It is brilliant, what you would dream | :27:59. | :28:05. | |
of as a start for your Olympics. It was a story of huge contrast on the | :28:06. | :28:11. | |
Sugarloaf racetrack with Bryony Shaw having a day she will want to forget | :28:12. | :28:16. | |
with seventh place in race one followed by a swim at the start of | :28:17. | :28:20. | |
the second and the third had not go much better as she came a law -- | :28:21. | :28:22. | |
came ashore. I had a technical problem on my kit | :28:23. | :28:32. | |
before the start so I missed the start. I had to tack out and I | :28:33. | :28:39. | |
caught back. Through the race. And the third race... I was doing really | :28:40. | :28:47. | |
well, I was second, I got a good start, went around the mark and I | :28:48. | :28:50. | |
caught a bag on my Finn. -- fin. So I'd catapulted because I | :28:51. | :29:06. | |
came to a dead stop and I had to recover my sail, and I don't know | :29:07. | :29:13. | |
how many girls passed me but I went from second to wherever. A nightmare | :29:14. | :29:20. | |
day. On the laser course, both British sailors arrived in Rio as | :29:21. | :29:23. | |
reigning champions but it will need to improve to have a chance to | :29:24. | :29:28. | |
compete for a medal in a week's time. Nick Thompson. Himself out of | :29:29. | :29:34. | |
some difficult situations and ended in 11th overall. Alison Young scored | :29:35. | :29:41. | |
13th in her first race. We join the second race just before the start. A | :29:42. | :29:50. | |
lovely start by the Lithuanian and a nice start, and great to see the | :29:51. | :29:54. | |
Cayman Islands sailor, the young 18-year-old. And a recovery already | :29:55. | :30:02. | |
for Anneliese Murphy of Ireland who has been forced to tack out. She | :30:03. | :30:06. | |
might have wanted that right-hand side, that was what she was working | :30:07. | :30:07. | |
so hard. But not a front row start. Young was deep in the pack by the | :30:08. | :30:14. | |
second mark. Heading on to the left-hand side, | :30:15. | :30:27. | |
following the sailor from Denmark. And by the end she had not made much | :30:28. | :30:34. | |
headway in a race won by the Lithuanian. She crosses the finish | :30:35. | :30:40. | |
line in the second race of the women's 1-person Dinky, acrobatic | :30:41. | :30:42. | |
performance on the water. She takes first place. | :30:43. | :30:49. | |
Young crossed the line in 18th. At the top of the table Xu Lijia was | :30:50. | :31:06. | |
making a great defence of her title. Are you disappointed? Not my best | :31:07. | :31:13. | |
art were regatta but there's plenty more to go. It has been a | :31:14. | :31:18. | |
challenging start for some of Team GB 's medal hope fields. This venue | :31:19. | :31:23. | |
was never going to be straightforward. For Nick Dempsey | :31:24. | :31:27. | |
there is plenty of racing to go, but what a dream start to his Olympic | :31:28. | :31:32. | |
regatta. We will have plenty more from surely | :31:33. | :31:36. | |
over the course of the Olympics. Bryony Shaw was talking about how a | :31:37. | :31:41. | |
plastic bag affected her when she was out on her boat and reading | :31:42. | :31:45. | |
statistics about what goes into the bay where they are saying at the | :31:46. | :31:50. | |
moment -- sailing at the moment. Only 50% of these so which goes | :31:51. | :31:54. | |
untreated Mac can go into that Burley where they are actually | :31:55. | :31:57. | |
having the Olympic sailing regatta which is one of the issues and | :31:58. | :32:01. | |
something the failures have been discussing for weeks in the build-up | :32:02. | :32:09. | |
to this event, and Shirley was talking only about how the tide was | :32:10. | :32:12. | |
moving today which made it quite a clear day and most of the rubbish | :32:13. | :32:15. | |
had been taken away but it can be very difficult for some of the | :32:16. | :32:19. | |
sailors and it is something that may be an issue in the coming days. We | :32:20. | :32:23. | |
talked about these Games and reflecting back on what happened a | :32:24. | :32:28. | |
few years ago, and in 2012 in Weymouth three of the gold medals in | :32:29. | :32:32. | |
Weymouth went to Australians. We have had one Australian gold medal | :32:33. | :32:37. | |
tonight in the rugby sevens, not the sailing, it is their fourth of the | :32:38. | :32:41. | |
Olympic Games and we showed you the longest medal ceremony on and we | :32:42. | :32:52. | |
promised you a bit of the Australian national anthem so here they are | :32:53. | :32:54. | |
winning the first rugby sevens gold in the history of the Olympics. | :32:55. | :33:15. | |
Ladies and gentlemen, the Olympic gold medallist... New Zealand took | :33:16. | :34:07. | |
the silver and Canada the bronze and Team GB just missed out by losing | :34:08. | :34:11. | |
the bronze medal match to Canada, having beaten earlier in the pool | :34:12. | :34:17. | |
matches by 22-0. We're on BBC Four for another hour and a half or so | :34:18. | :34:21. | |
with beach volleyball coming up for you a bit later on. We say this a | :34:22. | :34:25. | |
lot but thank you very much for all the social media stuff you are | :34:26. | :34:30. | |
sending our way, using the hash tag #bbcrio2016. Copaca-banter is going | :34:31. | :34:47. | |
down very well. This woman says she has just grown since we launched it. | :34:48. | :34:53. | |
What on earth are you doing? That comes from Michael. We're just | :34:54. | :34:56. | |
having a bit of fun here passed inside on BBC Four and hopefully you | :34:57. | :35:00. | |
are enjoying yourself as well. We're bringing you all of the medals and | :35:01. | :35:06. | |
we have two bronze medals today as well as a gold and silver yesterday | :35:07. | :35:10. | |
and the Olympics is about fun and inspiring the next generation and if | :35:11. | :35:14. | |
you can't inspire them with a bit of Copaca-banter then, do you know | :35:15. | :35:19. | |
what, that is it, I'm off! Paul has just turned off the telly! It is | :35:20. | :35:24. | |
because Copaca-banter is being repeated. Well, goodbye! You will | :35:25. | :35:28. | |
miss some amazing weightlifting and you will be disappointed when your | :35:29. | :35:33. | |
friends tell you that you did not stay awake for the men's 62 | :35:34. | :35:41. | |
kilograms final, and there was a bit of drama coming up to this because | :35:42. | :35:46. | |
the favourite for the gold medal cramped up in the early round and | :35:47. | :35:55. | |
had to drop out. Chen Lijun. Now let us go weightlifting. | :35:56. | :36:03. | |
His final attempt would put him into fourth. Does he have the legs to | :36:04. | :36:15. | |
push? Get it there! Does he have anything left. That is an | :36:16. | :36:22. | |
adjustment. It is OK. He has gone. What you don't want to see is him | :36:23. | :36:26. | |
collapsing underneath the weight. He has put it down in time that he is | :36:27. | :36:30. | |
safe and OK. A really tremendous effort. So, just three of them left | :36:31. | :36:52. | |
now. We have Farkhad Kharki of Kazakhstan and Eko Yuli Irawan of | :36:53. | :37:02. | |
Indonesia. Eko Yuli Irawan is going to go at 175. Farkhad Kharki has | :37:03. | :37:17. | |
lifted 177 and he has a bit of work to do because he was seven kilos | :37:18. | :37:25. | |
behind after the snatch. Unless he pulls out something absolutely | :37:26. | :37:30. | |
miraculous you would think that the battle is between the other two. He | :37:31. | :37:41. | |
has played this board very well and Eko Yuli Irawan has to come out one | :37:42. | :37:45. | |
kilo heavier. They have all used up their automatic changes. Eko Yuli | :37:46. | :37:57. | |
Irawan has just gone up to 176 and that will force everyone out. He | :37:58. | :38:00. | |
doesn't have the option to change again. | :38:01. | :38:14. | |
Remember this is just his second attempt so he has another attempt. | :38:15. | :38:27. | |
This represents a personal best. One kilo. | :38:28. | :38:42. | |
This would put him in the lead. That looks a struggle. No. Oh, he is | :38:43. | :38:57. | |
under pressure now. If you hear any cheers, that is from the Colombians. | :38:58. | :39:01. | |
It gives them are a bit of breathing space. Remember, he is a heavy of | :39:02. | :39:09. | |
the two lifters. I think we will see Oscar Figueroa coming out on the | :39:10. | :39:12. | |
same weight which will force Eko Yuli Irawan even heavy on his third | :39:13. | :39:17. | |
and final attempt. I am not sure he has the legs to stand with anymore | :39:18. | :39:21. | |
so this could be the left for the gold-medal, certainly it will | :39:22. | :39:23. | |
confirm his lead. So the bronze is safe with Farkhad | :39:24. | :39:41. | |
Kharki of Kazakhstan. The arguments over silver and gold are between | :39:42. | :39:46. | |
these two men. He has two lifts left and, of course, one more left for | :39:47. | :39:55. | |
Eko Yuli Irawan. Waiting for quiet. So this is to put himself in first | :39:56. | :39:57. | |
place. It is there. He extends his lead. He | :39:58. | :40:21. | |
has laid the gauntlet down, catch me if you can. He still needs to stay | :40:22. | :40:27. | |
focused just in case one of these guys will attempt to upset the | :40:28. | :40:35. | |
party. We will not stay with that for too long because you can | :40:36. | :40:39. | |
continue to watch that over on BBC One, because we have been promising | :40:40. | :40:43. | |
you for much of the night that we're going to show you Lawrence Okolie | :40:44. | :40:49. | |
fighting in his round of 16 of the men's heavyweight. If you want to | :40:50. | :40:53. | |
watch that without the world champion, you will find a surprise | :40:54. | :40:57. | |
in that and it is on BBC One. If there is anything else you want to | :40:58. | :41:01. | |
stay across there is a full list of everything that is available on up | :41:02. | :41:06. | |
to 24 streams on any one time and you can see that via the BBC sport | :41:07. | :41:12. | |
app. On both of those there is a really handy schedule. On the | :41:13. | :41:17. | |
right-hand side of the page there is every event that is on in the day | :41:18. | :41:20. | |
and you can plan your viewing around what you would like to watch over | :41:21. | :41:24. | |
the course of the day and we will be showing you that in the next few | :41:25. | :41:30. | |
weeks on BBC Four and BBC One. We will go back to the boxing now and | :41:31. | :41:35. | |
we had the opening about the Lawrence Okolie on Saturday night | :41:36. | :41:39. | |
and he was really impressive but he faces a very stiff test from | :41:40. | :41:44. | |
Erislandy Savon. He is a very well-known name in amateur boxing | :41:45. | :41:49. | |
because he is the nephew of the three-time Olympic medallist and he | :41:50. | :41:53. | |
stopped Lawrence Okolie in the first round of their bout back in June. | :41:54. | :41:58. | |
How will Lawrence Okolie get on this time around? We will join our | :41:59. | :42:02. | |
commentary team of Richie Woodhall and Ron Macintosh. | :42:03. | :42:12. | |
Entering the arena in confident fashion for the second time here in | :42:13. | :42:19. | |
Rio 2016 is Great Britain boss Matt Lawrence Okolie, just 23 years of | :42:20. | :42:24. | |
age. He had a really impressive when in the opening round of this | :42:25. | :42:31. | |
tournament over a Polish fighter and his reward for that victory is a | :42:32. | :42:38. | |
place in the second round. It is against the second rack and boxer in | :42:39. | :42:43. | |
the tournament, the number two seed, and a man who comes from a famous | :42:44. | :42:49. | |
fighting family because Erislandy Savon from Cuba is the nephew of the | :42:50. | :42:54. | |
Olympic icon and the legendary heavyweight and three-time Gold | :42:55. | :43:07. | |
heavyweight -- gold medallist in a heavyweight competition, Felix | :43:08. | :43:13. | |
Savon. He gave and teenage Oshawa a great fight before he took gold and | :43:14. | :43:16. | |
then he slims down to 91 kilograms and these two men met in World | :43:17. | :43:26. | |
Series boxing back in May and Erislandy Savon stopped his man in | :43:27. | :43:31. | |
the opening round. He is a talent, isn't he? Kohli knows all about him | :43:32. | :43:34. | |
but he is confident that is main thing. -- Kohli. | :43:35. | :43:52. | |
The boxer in the blue corner, representing Cuba... Erislandy | :43:53. | :44:03. | |
Savon. OK, gentlemen, no holding, keep your | :44:04. | :44:13. | |
heads up, keep your backs up. Good luck. | :44:14. | :44:30. | |
We are in the 91 kilograms heavyweight division. This is the | :44:31. | :44:37. | |
second preliminary round. The man wearing blue, who has just taken an | :44:38. | :44:42. | |
arc in my hand over the top, is Cuba 's Erislandy Savon, 26 years of age | :44:43. | :44:46. | |
and ranked number two in the world, the tournament number two seed. The | :44:47. | :44:51. | |
reigning World Championship silver medallist at 91 kilograms and his | :44:52. | :44:55. | |
opponent, 23 old Lawrence Okolie from east London, one of a ten man | :44:56. | :45:02. | |
British boxing team, two women in a 12 strong British boxing squad as | :45:03. | :45:07. | |
well. When these two men met in May... Once again a cracking right | :45:08. | :45:11. | |
hand has put Lawrence Okolie onto the canvas and it is another | :45:12. | :45:15. | |
calamitous start for the man in red who was dropped three times in the | :45:16. | :45:18. | |
opening round of their World Series boxing match up and he is on the | :45:19. | :45:24. | |
canvas for the fourth time in this, his second meeting against Erislandy | :45:25. | :45:29. | |
Savon, a terrible start for Okolie. Yes, he was caught with a big right | :45:30. | :45:34. | |
hand. What he has to do is jabber and move off to his right. If he | :45:35. | :45:39. | |
moves to its lefty walks onto the right and so he has to steady | :45:40. | :45:44. | |
himself and get behind his jab. Move away from that dangerous shot of the | :45:45. | :45:48. | |
Cuban. He has made a terrible start by he has recovered again now so he | :45:49. | :45:53. | |
has to get back to using that and get back to being positive. We came | :45:54. | :45:57. | |
back into the conflict -- they came into the contest in confident mood | :45:58. | :46:00. | |
and he has to return to that and make no more mistakes and keep it | :46:01. | :46:02. | |
long range. He beat three boxes on his way to | :46:03. | :46:15. | |
secure his passage to this Olympics. He is facing the world number one | :46:16. | :46:21. | |
for the third time in three months. Those victories show you his talent. | :46:22. | :46:27. | |
But he is just a baby in a league International boxing terms whereas | :46:28. | :46:29. | |
Erislandy Savon has been competing at elite international level. His | :46:30. | :46:37. | |
sole global title was a world youth championship gold in 2008. At that | :46:38. | :46:43. | |
time Lawrence Okolie had no thought whatsoever about entering the sport | :46:44. | :46:46. | |
of boxing but he did so after seeing Anthony Joshua winning gold and he | :46:47. | :46:51. | |
discovered his immense talent but he is facing a man of incredible talent | :46:52. | :46:57. | |
and heaps of experience. Believe it or not, the most important shot for | :46:58. | :47:03. | |
Okolie is his jab, it has to be accurate and hit the target because | :47:04. | :47:07. | |
if it misses it allows someone to come back with the right hand. It | :47:08. | :47:13. | |
has got to go out and keep the Cuban at bay, it has to be fast and | :47:14. | :47:17. | |
accurate and hit the target and then bring the right-hand interplay. | :47:18. | :47:30. | |
Santon is just struggling a little bit to close down the gap because | :47:31. | :47:41. | |
Okolie has recovered. -- sav on -- Savon. He was dropped by a lovely, | :47:42. | :47:50. | |
long straight right, so calm and in control in the ring and so far | :47:51. | :47:54. | |
Okolie has done nothing to take him out of his rhythm. It was a good | :47:55. | :47:59. | |
right hand over the top. Let's have another look. Savon moves in and he | :48:00. | :48:04. | |
just catches him off-balance little bit. He left his left hand out | :48:05. | :48:13. | |
slightly. A little bit slower. It will be across the board for the | :48:14. | :48:19. | |
Cuban. No questions. But he has recovered and it was a good positive | :48:20. | :48:21. | |
end to the round for Okolie. Into the second round, Lawrence | :48:22. | :48:38. | |
Okolie of Great Britain immediately onto the front foot after conceding | :48:39. | :48:43. | |
the opening round across the board, 10-9 in favour of the second-ranked | :48:44. | :48:48. | |
boxer in the world. That was a good right hand and it staggered Savon | :48:49. | :48:53. | |
whose stance betrayed him momentarily but he has got it back | :48:54. | :48:58. | |
now. He comes back with a long left-hand and right over the top but | :48:59. | :49:04. | |
Okolie is growing in confidence and finding his range. That is better, | :49:05. | :49:10. | |
the jubilant are not invincible, they will stagette if you hit them | :49:11. | :49:15. | |
on the chin! A great white hand, long-range, more of it please, | :49:16. | :49:21. | |
Lawrence Okolie. All they said this contest has taken on a bit more an | :49:22. | :49:28. | |
even nature as a terrific left jab catches Savon as he comes in but now | :49:29. | :49:33. | |
he is looking to put his punches together. World series boxing | :49:34. | :49:39. | |
experience in seasoned four, five and six and in that time he has | :49:40. | :49:44. | |
compiled an astonishing record of 22 contests without defeat over the | :49:45. | :49:49. | |
five round duration. Lawrence Okolie made his World Series boxing bout | :49:50. | :49:53. | |
this year and his lone defeat came against the man in blue in the final | :49:54. | :49:58. | |
between the British Lionhearts and the Cuban team which took place on | :49:59. | :50:03. | |
neutral territory in Tashkent in Uzbekistan. It is about 100% | :50:04. | :50:10. | |
concentration. He is struggling with closing the gap. He can't close the | :50:11. | :50:15. | |
gap because he cannot get to Lawrence Okolie and that is what the | :50:16. | :50:20. | |
jab as to be accurate, slap it in his face and bring across the | :50:21. | :50:23. | |
right-hand but keep your distance and range and it is all about | :50:24. | :50:29. | |
concentration and accuracy. Again, made to miss with the attempted | :50:30. | :50:32. | |
right-hand but that is a cracking right hand from Savon but Okolie | :50:33. | :50:38. | |
took it well. Trying to get his jab working but now he holds on to get | :50:39. | :50:42. | |
some respite because the right-hand land right on the point of the chin. | :50:43. | :50:49. | |
He just oozes class, sav on. He is having a few problems with closing | :50:50. | :50:56. | |
the gap down. That is why Okolie as to be more concentrated -- Savon. He | :50:57. | :51:05. | |
has to be on the ball but he can do this, Okolie. He has already | :51:06. | :51:10. | |
demonstrated his incredible talent just by qualifying for Rio 2016 by | :51:11. | :51:14. | |
winning the European Olympic qualification event. He beat three | :51:15. | :51:22. | |
top ten operators. Here he is facing one of the very best of all and he | :51:23. | :51:26. | |
is acquitting himself very well in this second round after a slow start | :51:27. | :51:30. | |
to the first but it is a strong conclusion from Savon and as you | :51:31. | :51:35. | |
pointed out, that can be at significant tactic. He has got the | :51:36. | :51:42. | |
round again for me, he did the better work. Goodlad. You're doing | :51:43. | :51:52. | |
brilliant. Dave Allan weight with plenty of encouragement. | :51:53. | :51:57. | |
As someone is coming forward, that is where he has to be accurate but | :51:58. | :52:04. | |
that was a cracking shot and it gave Savon problems. As he is coming | :52:05. | :52:08. | |
forward, he beats him to the punch and that is what I've talked about, | :52:09. | :52:12. | |
the accuracy, you have got to hit him with that left-hand first. The | :52:13. | :52:18. | |
opening round was in favour of Savon and the second round has gone the | :52:19. | :52:23. | |
same way. Putting a man on the floor in open boxing does not necessarily | :52:24. | :52:28. | |
result in a 10-8 round but Savon it in a commanding position. | :52:29. | :52:36. | |
Just some adjustment required to the waistband, that is to be visible so | :52:37. | :52:44. | |
the referee can discern what is a low blow or not. Now the third and | :52:45. | :52:53. | |
final round is underway and the equation is simple, Lawrence Okolie | :52:54. | :52:56. | |
need a massive round because he is trailing on two point on all three | :52:57. | :53:01. | |
scorecards to the reigning World Championship silver medallist, | :53:02. | :53:04. | |
Erislandy Savon. And when you are built like Lawrence Okolie and | :53:05. | :53:08. | |
possess his punching power, is a knockout is always an option that | :53:09. | :53:12. | |
you will have to find the chin of a heavyweight who is pretty elusive | :53:13. | :53:17. | |
when he is at his best. Although he has had some success with the right | :53:18. | :53:21. | |
hand in the second round but he has defined the Sunday punch here. This | :53:22. | :53:31. | |
contest is not over yet, we know how good Savon is. He is very confident | :53:32. | :53:37. | |
but he might come over that front foot and Okolie can take advantage. | :53:38. | :53:50. | |
The reigning Pan Am games champion, reigning American Continental | :53:51. | :53:56. | |
champion from last year, Erislandy Savon. When you look at some of the | :53:57. | :54:01. | |
results that have gone against him, it is surprising he has not picked | :54:02. | :54:06. | |
up global success at eight senior level and occupied the highest | :54:07. | :54:10. | |
plinth on the podium. Another piledriving right-hand that causes | :54:11. | :54:15. | |
Okolie to be a bit disorganised and hold on at close range. He is going | :54:16. | :54:20. | |
for it now but he has to create a bit more space. I think he is more | :54:21. | :54:25. | |
effective at boxing at range. He will not win it at close quarters, | :54:26. | :54:30. | |
he has got to bring Savon onto the big right hand and that means | :54:31. | :54:34. | |
bringing him on at long range and Tian came up with the jab. Nice and | :54:35. | :54:39. | |
sharp, that is what he has to do. Wonderful left-hand from Okolie, he | :54:40. | :54:45. | |
is a young man who oozes confidence to go with his immense talent. He | :54:46. | :54:50. | |
has spoken of destiny and winning the Olympic title but he is facing | :54:51. | :54:54. | |
an uphill battle here inside the final minute of the third and final | :54:55. | :54:58. | |
round, trailing by two point of all three cards after a bad start | :54:59. | :55:03. | |
against Erislandy Savon. He got back into it into the second round but | :55:04. | :55:07. | |
has not done enough so far. The good right hand against from Savon, | :55:08. | :55:12. | |
chopping down onto Okolie who comes back with a left of his own and | :55:13. | :55:18. | |
Savon is libelling him -- lining it up on the right hand. He is just | :55:19. | :55:24. | |
feeling it a little bit now, Lawrence, and it is a shame that he | :55:25. | :55:29. | |
will learn from this experience. He has had his moment in this contest. | :55:30. | :55:36. | |
Worth pointing out that Okolie had just 25 contests coming into the Rio | :55:37. | :55:40. | |
Olympics, and incredible performance to qualified for the biggest | :55:41. | :55:46. | |
tournament on earth in this multisport extravaganza. He produced | :55:47. | :55:50. | |
a terrific victory in his first contest against Jakubowski of Poland | :55:51. | :55:58. | |
but he ran into the brilliant Erislandy Savon, the reigning World | :55:59. | :56:03. | |
Championships to the medallist. And for the second time in a matter of | :56:04. | :56:08. | |
months, Savon demonstrated his superiority over the talented but | :56:09. | :56:12. | |
inexperienced Lawrence Okolie who has acquitted himself incredibly | :56:13. | :56:14. | |
well over the course of this tournament. He has, a quick shot | :56:15. | :56:23. | |
again. He will learn from that. Nevertheless, he is an inexperienced | :56:24. | :56:29. | |
kid, he is one for Tokyo in 2020. He has done well here because it was a | :56:30. | :56:34. | |
terrible start. But he did not cave in, he came back and rocked Savon | :56:35. | :56:38. | |
with one shot so all credit to him, he will come again, one for the | :56:39. | :56:44. | |
future. In terms of the present, let down to the announcer and get the | :56:45. | :56:47. | |
official announcement at the conclusion this heavyweight contest | :56:48. | :56:49. | |
in the second preliminary round. Ladies and gentlemen, the winner by | :56:50. | :57:09. | |
unanimous decision... In the blue corner... Erislandy Savon! Erislandy | :57:10. | :57:18. | |
Savon moves into the quarterfinals and a step closer to emulating his | :57:19. | :57:25. | |
legendary uncle, Felix Savon. He eliminates Lawrence Okolie in the | :57:26. | :57:29. | |
second preliminary round of the 91 kilograms tournament with a | :57:30. | :57:32. | |
unanimous points decision, taking all three rounds from all three | :57:33. | :57:37. | |
judges. A very convincing display in his first outing for the number two | :57:38. | :57:42. | |
seed. Article is eliminated but should hold his head up high at the | :57:43. | :57:46. | |
manner in which he has acquitted himself in his first ever Olympic | :57:47. | :57:50. | |
tournament. -- Lawrence Okolie is eliminated. A step too far in the | :57:51. | :57:57. | |
end, was it what you expected? It was always going to be tough. I knew | :57:58. | :58:03. | |
it was hard, I boxed him before, but I thought the stuff I did in | :58:04. | :58:06. | |
preparation would have been enough. I found out quickly that it was a | :58:07. | :58:11. | |
different ball game. Just that level. I believe I'm in the top | :58:12. | :58:18. | |
three or four but I came up against somebody who was that bit better | :58:19. | :58:22. | |
today. It pains me to say it. But I was watching him in the McDonald's | :58:23. | :58:26. | |
four years ago against Anthony Joshua and I've managed to get | :58:27. | :58:34. | |
myself to sharing the ring with him. But I believe I can become one of | :58:35. | :58:38. | |
the best in the world and I'm not going to stop until I get to that | :58:39. | :58:42. | |
status. I hope you have enjoyed it, what will you take away from it? The | :58:43. | :58:47. | |
progress I have made. The same man stopped me in one round about seven | :58:48. | :58:53. | |
weeks ago, not even two months. And now on the big stage at the | :58:54. | :58:56. | |
Olympics, I have managed to extend it. I got the first bug, I really | :58:57. | :59:07. | |
wanted to win, I try to push it but it was not enough. But I have a | :59:08. | :59:11. | |
fantastic team, and I will keep pushing. I want to give a massive | :59:12. | :59:15. | |
shout to my mum and dad and my friends who have come here. | :59:16. | :59:19. | |
Everybody that has been supporting me. I didn't do it today | :59:20. | :59:23. | |
unfortunately but I will not stop until I get to that next level. All | :59:24. | :59:28. | |
the best, hopefully we will see you in 2020. | :59:29. | :59:32. | |
A great attitude from Lawrence Okolie. We have had three things | :59:33. | :59:41. | |
bouts this evening. -- three boxing bouts. We will be having some reach | :59:42. | :59:46. | |
volleyball before we go off air. If you have just switched on, welcome, | :59:47. | :59:51. | |
this is our home for the whole of the Olympics with some beautiful | :59:52. | :59:55. | |
exercises going on in the background and a fork and the beach and the | :59:56. | :00:01. | |
Atlantic Ocean and the golden coconuts and also the headlines. A | :00:02. | :00:13. | |
bronze medal for Team GB in the men's platform diving for Tom Daley | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
and Daniel Goodfellow who said they would only go if they felt had a | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
chance for winning a medal and they took bronze. | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
That was one of two bronze medals, Ed Link got on earlier on in the day | :00:28. | :00:34. | |
in the men's trap shooting. The man from Somerset has finally got a | :00:35. | :00:44. | |
medal, and it was bronze. Japanese team men's gymnast took the gold, | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
they were overjoyed, but it was disappointment for Great Britain. A | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
fall on the puttable horse for the Liz Smith, they finish outside the | :00:54. | :01:00. | |
medals -- the Pummel horse fuller is Smith. They lost the third-place | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
play-off to Canada. It was Australia who took the gold, beating New | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
Zealand and winning their first ever rugby sevens gold medal at an | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
Olympic Games. I will show you what you can see across the BBC right | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
now. Water polo action on BBC One, the first time we have shown you | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
that during the Olympic Games. Qureshi are taking gone Montenegrin, | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
Croatia are winning by 1-0 -- Caraway shove. -- Croatia are taking | :01:29. | :01:38. | |
an Montenegrin. Life table tennis is on the Red Button. I watched this | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
the other day, handball, Brazil taking on Norway, absolutely | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
brilliant. When I get back to the UK, I'm going to find out where my | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
local handball team are playing, it is brilliant, brutal, very fast | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
paced. That is available on the website. Argentina are taking gone | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
the Netherlands. We finish on BBC Four at 2am. BBC One continues for | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
quite a few hours after that with Jason Mohammed in the BBC studio, | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
just a five-minute walk down Copacabana Beach from us. It is | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
worth staying up for once again. I hope Tuesday Doctor watch Adam Peaty | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
win gold and does Carney win silver. -- I hope Tuesday Doctor watch. Adam | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
Carney won the first gold-medal. The James Guy get on the podium? He is | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
going to the freestyle. That will be sometime between 2am and three A. I | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
will try and find you an exact time, because that is vague. I hope | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
somebody will tell me the exact time whilst I read out these tweets. They | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
have been coming in thick and fast, thank you for all of them. | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
Copacabanter is got up and running. John says, absolutely love it, that | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
is what the Olympics is all about. Kim says, I can rest easy knowing | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
that Copacabanter is in full swing. I will be staying awake and 2am | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
every single night. Darren Jones says, please go and interview that | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
couple having a romantic night over your shoulder. They've suddenly | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
gone! If you were watching half an hour ago, they were there. It looked | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
a bit more serious than a chat, and they have a flask. I'm not sure it | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
was romantic. Dave Ford says, it seems the sevens team ran into a | :03:27. | :03:33. | |
force of nature. Dave, that is horrendous, and not worth of the | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
hashtag Copacabanter. Dan says, I am fitter than most of those doing the | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
beat circuit training. That is harsh, they seem to be enjoying | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
themselves extract the guy who looked a bit like Antony Worrall | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
Thomson has gone home, we can't show him again. At least when we're | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
talking about Copacabanter, the drinks are free. That is true. Paul | :03:56. | :04:05. | |
says, I am off, that is enough for me, Copacabedtime. Jose is, I've | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
just let out the biggest Romany north of Havana. -- the biggest | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
groan. If you would like to see James Guy go for a medal in his very | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
strong field in the 200m freestyle, 2:21am. He qualified in eighth spot | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
for that comment he is. Has a chance because you never know, maybe he | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
will be inspired by what he saw from Adam Peaty. And he is the world | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
champion. We are into our final hour on BBC Four. We will show you a bit | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
of beach volleyball, as promised. We like to give the final hour of the | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
programme over the beach volleyball. I will show you a lovely shot of | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
Copacabana, right where we are. Right at the other end of the beach | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
in the foreground, we are down at the other red, that top of the | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
question mark as you look at it, Copacabana Beach, when the building | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
is obscure in part of the beach. Down from that is the Beach | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
Volleyball Arena. Before we go there and watching Italy taking on Canada, | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
let's remind you of the rules of this wonderful sport. | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
Beach volleyball made its Olympic debut in Atlanta in 1996. And in the | :05:21. | :05:28. | |
20 years since, the United States and Brazil have dominated the sport. | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
Matches take place outdoors on a sand caught 16 metres long and eight | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
metres wide. There are only two members of the beach volleyball | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
team, and substitutions are not allowed. The object of the game is | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
to hit the ball over the net, trying to land it in the opponents' side of | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
the court. To keep the ball in play, the team can hit it up to three | :05:51. | :06:00. | |
times on their side of the court before it must be returned. Every | :06:01. | :06:02. | |
point played scores one point, and matches are the best-of-3 sets. The | :06:03. | :06:04. | |
first use 21 points, but of the third is required the winner is the | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
first team to reach 15. However, a team must always win a set by at | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
least two points. There are many different shots in beach volleyball, | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
this is a short using hands together, to set the ball for | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
another player to play an attacking shot. A date is where the ball is | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
saved with any part of the body, but normally using the arms and hands. A | :06:27. | :06:37. | |
spike is work the player jumps. This move is legal as long as the player | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
does it with closed fingers. The preliminary phase sees teams compete | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
in pool is, with the top team in each pool advancing to the knockout | :06:47. | :06:47. | |
phases. We will show you live action from | :06:48. | :06:57. | |
Paul A. We heard a bit of the explanation of the top two teams | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
from each pool going through, including two best third-place | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
finishes. Six balls in total. This is men's pool A. Brazil are | :07:06. | :07:12. | |
favourites. Ranghieri and Carambula of Italy, taking on Beanstalk and | :07:13. | :07:14. | |
Shakhtar of Canada. We call it the husband and wife when | :07:15. | :07:29. | |
it splits both players, you, me, I got it, you got it. That is for some | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
its communication. No touch. At the top of the tape | :07:33. | :07:58. | |
instead. Great dig by Schachter. Ranghieri no touch. Out of bounds. | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
Point to Italy. Here comes the scribe all. -- the | :08:01. | :08:18. | |
scribe all. -- the Sky bowled. Off the hands of Ranghieri. Point to | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
Canada, Canada have been handling the sky ball well as far as a ball | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
perspective is concerned. But it does throw a very, very different | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
tempo and momentum. With, I guess you could say. -- rhythm. | :08:33. | :08:41. | |
Overdrawn on and in. -- over an one. Josh Binstock, playing a little | :08:42. | :08:55. | |
strappy on that, going down the line, just over Ranghieri. What a | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
great ball. A great ball by Adrienne, and what a better plate by | :09:00. | :09:07. | |
Binstock. Canada trying to get some momentum, closing the gap to one. | :09:08. | :09:20. | |
Great delay, block by Schachter. Staying patient on the ground. Got | :09:21. | :09:32. | |
it with his fingertips. Oh, what a play. | :09:33. | :09:51. | |
Deep corner by Carambula. We take our first technical time-out at | :09:52. | :10:03. | |
1110. Italy leads here in certain number one on Copacabana Beach, Rio | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
de Janeiro, 2016 Olympic Games -- court number one. | :10:08. | :11:05. | |
Ranghieri to serve in certain number one. -- set number one. | :11:06. | :11:19. | |
Just wide. He knew it was open. Just missed. You've got to go for that | :11:20. | :11:31. | |
ball. Great decision, but just missed wide. | :11:32. | :11:42. | |
Went back to it. Carambula knew he wanted to go back to it. Binstock | :11:43. | :11:51. | |
had to put a little extra something on it. | :11:52. | :12:02. | |
Wow. Schachter feeling it. He's just got his rhythm. Write down the | :12:03. | :12:22. | |
middle again. Two aces for Canada, Schachter has got them both. | :12:23. | :12:32. | |
Schachter in a great rhythm behind the service line. It's going to be | :12:33. | :12:52. | |
important for Canada to eliminate those errors at the net. | :12:53. | :12:58. | |
Schachter into the net. Looked like he waited just, just a bit too long | :12:59. | :13:10. | |
to pull the trigger on that one. Maybe he was waiting for the call. | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
It's so important for team defence to not show what they are giving up | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
and taking until the last moment, who can wait the longest? | :13:19. | :13:42. | |
Great rally! Binstock trying to get the crowd involved, give Canada some | :13:43. | :13:52. | |
energy here. What a dig by Adrian Carambula with his hands. Binstock, | :13:53. | :14:04. | |
knuckle poke crosscourt, Ranghieri to bring the lead to only one. Italy | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
leads 14-13 in set number one. Ranghieri gets it through on the | :14:12. | :14:22. | |
second time. Swung out of his shoes on this one. | :14:23. | :14:38. | |
Really went for it. What a dig by Binstock. Ranghieri took something | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
of that second one. 15-13, switch sides. Ranghieri to | :14:43. | :14:49. | |
serve. Forte rally! Goodness. Both sides of | :14:50. | :15:30. | |
the net working so hard out here. These guys making incredible plays, | :15:31. | :15:36. | |
look at that. Super-smart, grovelling, getting it up. Almost a | :15:37. | :15:48. | |
miscommunication by Italy there. Carambula puts it away. So important | :15:49. | :15:56. | |
to collect yourself after a rally like that. | :15:57. | :16:08. | |
Everybody is breathing hard, taking a moment, catch your breath. Collect | :16:09. | :16:18. | |
your mind a little bit. Schachter back to serve, Italy leads 16-14. | :16:19. | :16:29. | |
Lob sacked by Carambula. That is why you love this team. | :16:30. | :16:45. | |
Those guys, between Ranghieri and Carambula, they make each other | :16:46. | :16:58. | |
better. Schachter and Binstock tried the same ball, the same lob set, | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
Binstock with just a little too much touch on that, misses wide. Italy's | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
lead four now. Binstock crushing down the line. A | :17:12. | :17:29. | |
little self talk their, just staying aggressive. Ranghieri made the | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
decision to pull off thinking Binstock would take something off of | :17:37. | :17:38. | |
that. Binstock hammering crosscourt. | :17:39. | :18:19. | |
Carambula broke for the line on that play. | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
Schachter having a great serving set right now. Gripping this top spin, | :18:25. | :18:59. | |
getting Italy in a bit of trouble. Schachter has two aces. Italy takes | :19:00. | :19:15. | |
a time-out, trying to stop the momentum. | :19:16. | :20:04. | |
Ranghieri hammering to the back line. First set point. For Italy. | :20:05. | :20:53. | |
Carambula looking for a fade away jump shot, was just short. But I | :20:54. | :21:01. | |
liked the attempt a lot. Carambula, a little chest bump. | :21:02. | :21:25. | |
Ranghieri, Carambula, they feed off each other right now. They take the | :21:26. | :21:33. | |
set 21-18 against Canada here on Copacabana Beach. Men's beach | :21:34. | :21:36. | |
volleyball action in pool a. A quick look at statistics. Tight up | :21:37. | :22:33. | |
on the blocks. Aces. 2-0 on that count to Canada. Sam Schachter | :22:34. | :22:42. | |
having a great serving match. And Carambula's sky ball. Carambula gets | :22:43. | :22:50. | |
his first ace, but for a jump top spin, catching the top of the tape. | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
Down the line. You must have heard me say that Canada was leading in | :22:56. | :23:19. | |
the ace category, and he has tied it up! | :23:20. | :23:25. | |
Look at that. Bravo, threading a needle. | :23:26. | :23:43. | |
Ranghieri showing how athletic he is to spread the court that wide. Past | :23:44. | :24:31. | |
on the left side of the court, made it almost all the way to the pin on | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
the right side of the court. He is covering a lot of ground in sand, | :24:36. | :24:38. | |
and then exploding. That's impressive. | :24:39. | :24:46. | |
Binstock. Making the same play. Running a back set, going off the | :24:47. | :24:54. | |
hands of Ranghieri. Carambula has a slogan, be you to be | :24:55. | :25:39. | |
good. And he embraces all of that. The date by Carambula, saucy cut | :25:40. | :25:53. | |
shot. 5-2, Italy lead. Such good ball control by Carambula. | :25:54. | :26:30. | |
Binstock recording his first block of the match. Seals it up on | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
Carambula. Carambula seems to have got balance | :26:36. | :26:55. | |
their, in the blocking. Good hostel by Ranghieri, Carambula keeps it in. | :26:56. | :27:04. | |
Blocked by Ranghieri. He covers so much ground, for him to make that | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
play pass the court and then get to the net, and time that up. Coming | :27:09. | :27:15. | |
from a way. 6-3, Italy lead, tight up and | :27:16. | :27:39. | |
blocking 2-2, tied up in aces 2-2. Binstock finally finds his Highline. | :27:40. | :27:59. | |
Ranghieri swings away. Really great set by Carambula, gives it the | :28:00. | :28:11. | |
distance, gives it the height. Italy is just in tempo, in really great | :28:12. | :28:19. | |
with the right now against Canada. Gets right on the side of that ball, | :28:20. | :28:28. | |
puts it to the sand. Quick line ball by Carambula. | :28:29. | :29:08. | |
Ranghieri and Carambula seem to be finding their rhythm against | :29:09. | :29:17. | |
Schachter's really tough job top spin. | :29:18. | :29:27. | |
Both sides getting pretty fired up. Ranghieri going, what's going on? | :29:28. | :29:32. | |
That's the fun of this! Italy lead 8-5 here in set number | :29:33. | :29:56. | |
two after taking set number 121-18. -- 21-18. | :29:57. | :30:05. | |
Binstock goes behind down the line. We switch sides at 86. The team has | :30:06. | :30:20. | |
met five times. Italy has won three of the last five meetings. | :30:21. | :30:35. | |
Carambula, back to the line out of the middle, a little choppy. | :30:36. | :30:47. | |
Carambula demonstrating why he was 2015 top rookie. And here he is in | :30:48. | :30:53. | |
the bright lights of the Olympic Games in Rio. | :30:54. | :31:13. | |
Binstock with the cut shot. It seems like there is some internal dialogue | :31:14. | :31:21. | |
happening with him. He's looking to push back here in the second set. | :31:22. | :31:32. | |
Bravo! A little warrior cry out of Binstock there. Cuts the lead to | :31:33. | :31:39. | |
one. Aces serve by Schachter. -- Asus | :31:40. | :32:00. | |
serve. He's hitting that well. Giving | :32:01. | :32:25. | |
himself a good lead on this horse and taking the momentum into it. | :32:26. | :32:36. | |
Again, down the middle on this toss. Give him some love, people! And | :32:37. | :32:41. | |
finishing. Canada takes the lead 10-9 in the | :32:42. | :32:56. | |
second set. He has four aces. Italy fights it off. Just out of the reach | :32:57. | :33:09. | |
of Schachter. Goes Carambula. Carambula and Ranghieri are known to | :33:10. | :33:14. | |
be a very passionate team. They can be explosive. | :33:15. | :33:21. | |
Carambula hits back at about 60%. Sometimes it just needs to be fast | :33:22. | :33:52. | |
rather than hard. Good dig by him, a little tomahawk. Quick ball down the | :33:53. | :33:59. | |
middle. Italy takes us to the first technical time out. | :34:00. | :34:07. | |
Only Canadians would wear hockey helmets and beanies at a beach | :34:08. | :34:53. | |
volleyball match! But you got to love them. | :34:54. | :35:03. | |
Schachter burying a ball crosscourt, ties it up 11-11. | :35:04. | :35:36. | |
Ranghieri seems to have waffled the ball. But they have a request for a | :35:37. | :35:43. | |
challenge for the block touch. Carambula arguing, he said, net | :35:44. | :36:30. | |
touch, not bold touch, for the challenge. -- not all touch. They | :36:31. | :36:41. | |
reviewed the bold touch from the blog rather than a net violation of | :36:42. | :36:56. | |
Canada -- the bowled touch. -- the ball touch. Ranghieri and Carambula | :36:57. | :36:59. | |
speak perfect English. I'm not sure what happened there. | :37:00. | :37:08. | |
And then they called Ranghieri on at the left. -- the lift. | :37:09. | :37:22. | |
These guys are doing some work. Italy takes a time-out. 11-14, | :37:23. | :38:14. | |
Canada lead here in set number two. Binstock hammering down the line. | :38:15. | :39:18. | |
Found his groove! And a solid high-5. | :39:19. | :39:26. | |
And nothing says keep the trail going like the love | :39:27. | :39:37. | |
good stuff by Binstock and Schachter right now. | :39:38. | :39:52. | |
Adrian doesn't clear the net with that attack. It's going to be | :39:53. | :40:02. | |
important for Italy to settle in here. | :40:03. | :40:17. | |
The serve goes long. Side switch. 12-16, Canada lead. See what | :40:18. | :40:29. | |
Carambula can come up with here. Closes his 4-point lead. | :40:30. | :40:42. | |
Carambula's jumped off-spin, goes into the matter. -- into the net. | :40:43. | :41:01. | |
Schachter... Aces serve. When you got it, you got it! | :41:02. | :41:21. | |
That came back quick fast on Ranghieri. | :41:22. | :42:02. | |
Adrian schools down the middle. Trying to stay alive here in the | :42:03. | :42:12. | |
second -- Adrian scores. If not, steal the momentum at least going | :42:13. | :42:13. | |
into game three. Jonas, our second referee. Waiting | :42:14. | :42:41. | |
for the go signal. Ranghieri's serve causes trouble. | :42:42. | :43:09. | |
Aiken. Lays it down. -- causes trouble for Schachter. | :43:10. | :43:19. | |
Canada can do no wrong. Right here in the second set. Ranghieri thought | :43:20. | :43:35. | |
he had this block. And it just rolls into the antenna, nothing you can do | :43:36. | :43:36. | |
about it. Adrian has an answer. 14-20, | :43:37. | :43:55. | |
Canada's set point. Here in game number two. | :43:56. | :44:04. | |
Carambula is there. Carambula tries to go line. Josh Binstock shakes him | :44:05. | :44:17. | |
off. We are going through. Canada wins 21-14. They handled the second | :44:18. | :44:22. | |
set, the technical time-out was 1110. Italy's read. -- lead. And | :44:23. | :44:30. | |
then Canada just went on a terror. Adrian. Choppy rest away from the | :44:31. | :46:25. | |
southpaw, Edin on the Canadian crowd. | :46:26. | :46:46. | |
Interesting. He almost got himself into some trouble there. I guess you | :46:47. | :47:00. | |
have to walk that fine line as a competitor. 2-0, Italy lead. | :47:01. | :47:14. | |
Binstock scores down the middle. They split block, meaning each of | :47:15. | :48:00. | |
them takes turn blocking and defending, predicated on who is | :48:01. | :48:05. | |
serving, whereas Italy, Ranghieri does the blocking responsibilities | :48:06. | :48:12. | |
and Carambula in the back thought. -- court. Choppy line ball by | :48:13. | :48:15. | |
Carambula. Knows both Canadian players are down | :48:16. | :49:00. | |
by the net, keeps it simple. Italy up for- two. | :49:01. | :49:21. | |
The team defence of Italy right now is backing rhythm. Carambula brings | :49:22. | :49:32. | |
Thommy to the party on that, takes the ball with his tomahawk. When you | :49:33. | :49:39. | |
take a ball that isn't hit strong, the hands must be together. | :49:40. | :49:49. | |
What a move by Ranghieri. Burnett patroller owning his aim right now. | :49:50. | :49:55. | |
Italy lead 6-2. Goes down to go up. And here we are in set number three, | :49:56. | :51:02. | |
Italy lead 6-2. In a hard-fought 3-set match. These are men's beach | :51:03. | :51:10. | |
volleyball preliminaries on the famous sands of Copacabana Beach. | :51:11. | :51:21. | |
Copacabana, I absolutely destroyed that. Now I can say it. | :51:22. | :51:32. | |
Real difficult for Adrian Carambula to take that ball from overhead, | :51:33. | :51:44. | |
went into that attack a bit blind. Got it. Back line for Carambula. 7-3 | :51:45. | :52:06. | |
switch, we switch on multiples of five in the third set, as we are | :52:07. | :52:11. | |
only playing to 15 in the deciding match. | :52:12. | :52:22. | |
Carambula with the short serve. Binstock coming in hammering | :52:23. | :52:30. | |
Ranghieri. Carambula almost had two one arm to | :52:31. | :53:13. | |
scoops in Raleigh, the second one didn't go quite his way. | :53:14. | :53:33. | |
Schachter is there to deny Carambula of this side, dives right into his | :53:34. | :53:42. | |
angle. Binstock gets blocked. 10-5 switch, | :53:43. | :53:59. | |
Italy up. Again, Italy have won three of the | :54:00. | :54:51. | |
last five meetings between these teams. So they both know each other | :54:52. | :55:06. | |
very well. Ace served by Ranghieri. That ball just tailed at the very | :55:07. | :55:10. | |
end. Josh Binstock goes high line, gives | :55:11. | :55:38. | |
it a little extra pop to get over both defenders, a very high | :55:39. | :55:46. | |
Ranghieri and a very fast Carambula, and he gets it into the corner. | :55:47. | :55:58. | |
Schachter causing so many issues for Italy with his serving. Italy having | :55:59. | :56:10. | |
to set that ball from the end line, Adrian taking that ball from | :56:11. | :56:16. | |
overhead, just misses long. About a ball's length there. | :56:17. | :56:23. | |
Schachter again, that serve is pressure for the Italians. That ball | :56:24. | :56:36. | |
of Adrian Carambula's passes spinning so tightly, Ranghieri | :56:37. | :56:43. | |
really has to control that with his hands, it is such a high level of | :56:44. | :56:44. | |
difficulty. Italy calls a time-out. Sam Schachter to serve here in set | :56:45. | :57:42. | |
number three. Italy leads 11-8, but Canada has strung together a handful | :57:43. | :57:50. | |
of points here. Ranghieri goes high over Binstock, down the line. Side | :57:51. | :57:55. | |
switch, 12-8. Net violation for Canada. Point | :57:56. | :58:30. | |
Italy. That's really cost them early. You don't want to see it cost | :58:31. | :58:35. | |
them late as well. Both teams so entertaining. So fired up. A little | :58:36. | :58:45. | |
cut on two, Schachter trying to keep Canada in this thing late. | :58:46. | :59:08. | |
Schachter gets the block to the back line, point Canada. | :59:09. | :59:38. | |
Adrian Carambula crosscourt point brings Italy to their first match | :59:39. | :59:45. | |
point. Ranghieri to serve. Binstock scores, says, not yet, we | :59:46. | :00:02. | |
switch sides. 14-11. Adrian Carambula fights off | :00:03. | :00:46. | |
Schachter's serve. Classic Adrian getting choppy out of the middle, | :00:47. | :01:00. | |
Italy wins two sets to one. So that winter Italy, and a little treat for | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
you throughout the evening, because the beach volleyball continues on | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
the next but -- on the Red Button for the next few hours. If you would | :01:08. | :01:14. | |
like to keep watching, one thing to flag up for you, the three-time | :01:15. | :01:16. | |
Olympic winner Kerri Walsh Jennings goes for the USA pair at around 4am, | :01:17. | :01:25. | |
so if you fancy it, you can stay up and watch beach volleyball | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
throughout the evening. It is that time of the night. Before we say | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
goodbye, we would like to bring you our Rio Trio. These are three things | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
you might have missed during the day which we think are worthy of your | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
attention. In bronze medal spot, the Australian | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
women winning gold in the rugby sevens. That has to make the top | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
three stories of the day, the first time the event has been staged, and | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
it seems to be a sport making an impact here in Rio. | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
Tonight we saw the Columbia weightlifter Mosquera win gold, | :02:02. | :02:09. | |
big-name, massive weight, a combined 300 kilograms in his best two lifts. | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
He tried a bit more, couldn't manage it, took his shoes off and promptly | :02:14. | :02:20. | |
retired. It doesn't get any better than Olympic Oval. The top gong goes | :02:21. | :02:33. | |
to Rafaela Silva triumphing in the 57 kilograms judo, and that gold | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
medal, the scenes are remarkable, because it is an incredible fairy | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
tale rise to Olympic triumph from a childhood growing up in one of Rio's | :02:42. | :02:56. | |
notorious favelas, the one made famous in City of Gold. We will be | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
back tomorrow from the Olympic Park from 1pm tomorrow UK time, and we | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
will be back here from Copacabana Beach from 7pm. Thanks once again | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
for all your interaction, your tweets, interaction throughout the | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
evening. The BBC One show continues from our BBC One studio just down | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
the beach, about a five-minute walk from us, and the swimming has now | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
started. Helen Skelton will guide you through that with Jason | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
Mohammad. James Guy goes in the 200 metres freestyle, I wonder whether | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
we will match the magic of last night with a gold for Adam Peaty and | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
silver. Edward Ling took another silver today -- bronze today, but | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
our image today is Tom Daley and Daniel Goodfellow winning bronze | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
from the ten metre platform in the synchro diving. They certainly | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
enjoyed themselves. They said they would only take part if they had a | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
chance for a medal, they thought they could do it and they did. It | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
was a bronze medal for Team GB, a fourth medal of the games, and with | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
that, we say good night from BBC Four. | :04:07. | :04:09. |
