very shortly. And there will be a lot at celebrations of some great

:00:00.:00:08.

sport here, no doubt about it. The action keeps coming, we change

:00:09.:00:14.

disciplines tomorrow because eventing is now done and it is the

:00:15.:00:19.

world of dressage we start with tomorrow. To be tomorrow UK time,

:00:20.:00:24.

it'll be on the Red Button, online and also on the ABC sport app. And

:00:25.:00:35.

-- BBC sport. Two days of Grand Prix tests as we see the individual board

:00:36.:00:41.

going up. Two days of team Grand Prix and then the Grand Prix special

:00:42.:00:46.

to clinch the team so tomorrow is the first day of the Grand Prix

:00:47.:00:51.

dressage. The individual eventing confirming Michael Jung as the gold

medallist. The gold medal for Michael Young.

:00:54.:01:13.

Bronze for Philip Dutton, mighty nice for the USA -- Michael Jung.

:01:14.:01:22.

Well, what a fantastic ride from Michael Jung who retains his Olympic

:01:23.:01:28.

title. France took the team eventing gold medal but the individual title

:01:29.:01:36.

says in Germany, congratulations to Michael Jung. After two -- four days

:01:37.:01:41.

of eventing, the medals are dished out. Finally we have come to a

:01:42.:01:47.

decision, we went for an alert, Welsh and and white chocolate and

:01:48.:01:54.

cookies. Do they have a toffee crumble? Only one way to find out.

:01:55.:02:01.

Thank you. Good afternoon, good evening, welcome to you in the UK.

:02:02.:02:09.

It is a gorgeous afternoon here. We have even got a brand-new beach

:02:10.:02:17.

shower. This is the way they roll on Copacabana beach. The beach is busy.

:02:18.:02:24.

We are here until two o'clock in the morning back home. In that time we

:02:25.:02:28.

have all this on the way for youthful is top -- for you. We will

:02:29.:02:40.

soon be going to the arena to see if Bryony Shaw can recover from her

:02:41.:02:45.

dreadful luck yesterday. Rugby sevens will make a lot of the

:02:46.:02:51.

coverage, the Team GB men are in action on Japan. -- taking on Japan.

:02:52.:03:01.

Also the pre-tournament favourites New Zealand will be in action, we

:03:02.:03:06.

will see them live against Kenya later was top I know you like your

:03:07.:03:16.

specific timing, this is how things work. The sailing is on the way

:03:17.:03:22.

shortly. We will do some live diving shortly for the women's synchronised

:03:23.:03:29.

that form final. And the Rugby sevens will start our coverage. We

:03:30.:03:31.

will wrap up everything that has happened and bring you the rest of

:03:32.:03:37.

that at around ten 30p.m. On day four of the Olympic Games. Let us

:03:38.:03:45.

remind you what else you can watch. On BBC One, it is the canoe single.

:03:46.:03:57.

Archery is on the red atom. Earlier Great Britain qualified for the

:03:58.:04:04.

court final -- read bottom. Live tennis on the website -- Red Button.

:04:05.:04:17.

Johanna Konta is in action. She is serving and going with serve.

:04:18.:04:24.

Everything is live, wherever you want to go. There is a schedule of

:04:25.:04:31.

everyday and up to 24 live streams available at once. We are going to

:04:32.:04:36.

be concentrating a lot today on this.

:04:37.:05:05.

If you like your Rugby sevens and it has been a brilliant tournament so

:05:06.:05:11.

far with Australia victorious in the women's event, the men's tournament

:05:12.:05:17.

started with a bang today. We will bring you up-to-date with the next

:05:18.:05:21.

few hours and we have Team GB coming up later. People are getting did by

:05:22.:05:27.

their man in the shower. -- getting did. We have to bring new

:05:28.:05:39.

life sailing -- distract did. She caught and asked the chest

:05:40.:06:01.

infection, did Bryony Shaw, but did her luck change? -- she caught a

:06:02.:06:05.

nasty chest infection. We are on the E of your third

:06:06.:06:18.

Olympic Games and I am wondering how differently this feels. I think I

:06:19.:06:27.

feel my most prepared. That experience that two previous games

:06:28.:06:32.

gives you, I am Carl Meyer and that preparation helps you -- I am more

:06:33.:06:39.

calm. How do you think you can do here? I think Rio is a complex

:06:40.:06:47.

venue. It is potentially extremely varied with the different course

:06:48.:06:52.

areas. I think that will play to my strengths, I am a very adaptable

:06:53.:06:58.

sailor, one of the most consistent across the wins. How would you

:06:59.:07:04.

summarise 2016 for you? It started off with a gold medal in the World

:07:05.:07:10.

Cup event in Miami and a silver medal at the World Championships and

:07:11.:07:17.

from there, I have not been off the podium and it is that level of

:07:18.:07:23.

consistency that I can show through, a maturity that I have developed.

:07:24.:07:29.

Rio you will need to be versatile and hopefully that is what you will

:07:30.:07:33.

see is a versatile adaptable person who can react curveballs and stay

:07:34.:07:39.

mature and level-headed through the event. That was Bryony Shaw speaking

:07:40.:07:44.

before the games and you may have picked up on what happened

:07:45.:07:49.

yesterday, one of the things we have spoken about regarding the sailing

:07:50.:07:53.

venue is the fact that there is a lot of pollution. We were talking

:07:54.:07:57.

about fact that the vast pejorative of the sewage gets emptied into the

:07:58.:08:03.

bay where the sailing is taking place and there is a lot of debris,

:08:04.:08:06.

sailors are worried about that and that is what happened to Bryony Shaw

:08:07.:08:11.

in one of her races yesterday and this is her rather tearful interview

:08:12.:08:16.

at the end day. I had a technical problem. I missed the start. I got

:08:17.:08:25.

back. I caught back through the race, the speed was good and after

:08:26.:08:31.

that, the start was really bad, so that was the major set act. Second

:08:32.:08:43.

start, I wanted to get on the Finn off the left-hand side and I clipped

:08:44.:08:53.

the line -- setback. I capsized and the had to try and come back but it

:08:54.:09:02.

was really bad, the start -- and I had to try and come back full is. I

:09:03.:09:10.

was second then, I got a good start, the French girl was just ahead of

:09:11.:09:20.

me. I caught a bag on my Finn stop --. I catapulted, because I came to

:09:21.:09:32.

a dead stop. Had to recover my sale, I do not know how many girls passed

:09:33.:09:42.

me, I went to wherever. Is there anything good you can take from it?

:09:43.:09:49.

No. Thank you. Good luck tomorrow. Not particularly happy, rotten luck.

:09:50.:09:56.

We will join the sailing, you may remember that in 2012, they were in

:09:57.:10:03.

Weymouth, they are not far from us. It is the other side of sugar loaf

:10:04.:10:09.

Mountain. Shirley Robinson is there. We will start with Bryony Shaw, we

:10:10.:10:13.

know all about the preparation, know that yourself, when you come here,

:10:14.:10:20.

it is an outside influence that affects you and you can understand

:10:21.:10:26.

why she is so upset? She had a terrible day. She is better than

:10:27.:10:31.

that. In the first race, she did not quite get it together and she did

:10:32.:10:36.

not have a great race. In the second race, she tried to hard and caught

:10:37.:10:41.

her then on the line and in the third race, court the bag and that

:10:42.:10:49.

caused to do a massive catapulted. I have high hopes for her, she is

:10:50.:10:55.

confident and has never been more fit, she is always in the medals.

:10:56.:11:02.

There will be curveballs in Rio, it is the toughest Olympic venue I can

:11:03.:11:06.

remember, if she can keep a level head and keep chipping away, one

:11:07.:11:12.

race at a time, she could still the air for a medal on Sunday. Surely

:11:13.:11:17.

the voice of experience, and that is the sort of thing that she needs to

:11:18.:11:24.

hear. Nick Dempsey has had a better games and he has made a great start.

:11:25.:11:31.

He is flying. The last few years, it has not in coming together. I

:11:32.:11:37.

thought he had lost his Mojo, but yesterday, first this morning and

:11:38.:11:42.

first and second yesterday. Just behind me, coming to the finish,

:11:43.:11:48.

Giles Scott, great written's greatest hope for a gold medal, a

:11:49.:11:53.

difficult race for him, but here he is, just about to finish -- Great

:11:54.:12:00.

Britain. The same boat that then Ainslie managed to win a gold medal

:12:01.:12:05.

on. I heard you same that in those ten classes, Team GB have a good

:12:06.:12:12.

opportunity for medals. Stephen Park, the Olympic manager, this is a

:12:13.:12:19.

really peculiar venue, it is hard to predict what will go on as currents,

:12:20.:12:25.

tides and wins, you can see how massive the mountain is, that will

:12:26.:12:32.

have an impact on the breeze. It will be a real all-rounder who wins,

:12:33.:12:37.

someone with a level head who can recover from set backs stop Team GB

:12:38.:12:49.

has that. Thank you. We hope that the sailors will be able to deliver.

:12:50.:12:54.

We talked about Ryan Day sure, she has been on the water in the last

:12:55.:13:12.

few hours. -- Bryony Shaw. The Italian leading the windsurfing and

:13:13.:13:16.

working hard, around the top of the course, straight in. The Russian, 19

:13:17.:13:22.

years of age around the top starts to pump the footwork, working

:13:23.:13:28.

everything, the Reagan really pumping. We have Spain coming in,

:13:29.:13:37.

Poland coming then pumping hard on the starboard lay line. Israel

:13:38.:13:42.

attacking up Amat and China coming in, almost managing to close around

:13:43.:13:53.

and a group of four rounding, the French competitor managing to bearer

:13:54.:13:59.

on the inside. Estonia coming up to the Winwood Mark. Could not quite

:14:00.:14:13.

hold it. I great day for Flavia Pennetta. She would move into the

:14:14.:14:26.

lead -- Flavia Tartaglini. Poland, the world champion having to put on

:14:27.:14:30.

the brakes. Thailand following the world champions. Just waiting for

:14:31.:14:39.

Ryan Day sure and on the track, you can see the flag -- Bryony Shaw.

:14:40.:14:48.

Hoping for a bit of space. Now with the leaders, Italy going for the

:14:49.:14:55.

drive, Flavia Tartaglini. Nice, straight into the pumping on the

:14:56.:14:59.

other side. Comfortable lead at the moment but with this light and

:15:00.:15:05.

fickle wind anything can happen. Wonderful technique, the way she is

:15:06.:15:11.

fanning the sale on every wave. What a feeling that must be.

:15:12.:15:20.

At this point you are going to give it everything, this is the second

:15:21.:15:26.

race today and we have one more to go and give the priest stays like it

:15:27.:15:30.

is, they will certainly be tired at the end of the day -- the breeze.

:15:31.:15:37.

Maybe she is looking to conserve a bit of energy for the third race.

:15:38.:15:42.

She has a nice margin and just as to avoid mistakes. Russia are close

:15:43.:15:49.

behind the Italian. They will go around the fifth mark and then a

:15:50.:15:55.

short dogleg to the finish. Putin of Russia in second place at the

:15:56.:16:06.

moment. -- Elfutina of Russia. I was told to watch out for this girl. I

:16:07.:16:13.

can see why. What a performance from the 19-year-old. I'm glad I was not

:16:14.:16:19.

sailing against her in the youth championship! It looks hard enough

:16:20.:16:24.

in the Olympics. And it was not that long ago when she won the youth

:16:25.:16:29.

Championships and now she is in second on the waters in Rio. Out in

:16:30.:16:33.

the lead, the Italian, Flavia Tartaglini. I can tell you that

:16:34.:16:43.

Bryony is on a bit of a charge. She took time out of the leaders on the

:16:44.:16:49.

last leg and is now up to 13th place. Bryony Shaw back in 13th

:16:50.:16:54.

place but out in the league it is Tartaglini of Italy on the final

:16:55.:17:00.

reach to the finish -- in the lead. A superb performance. Big smiles

:17:01.:17:07.

from the Italian and a quick look behind to see who is there but there

:17:08.:17:12.

is nothing but clear water between her and second place. The finish

:17:13.:17:17.

line comes into view and Flavia Tartaglini wins the race here in

:17:18.:17:26.

Rio. A fantastic performance and rightly proud, two wins for the

:17:27.:17:33.

Italians today. Second-place coming to the finish line. Elfutina of

:17:34.:17:41.

Russia, the youngest windsurfer out on the course. That will move her

:17:42.:17:55.

into second overall. And then De Geus of the Netherlands comes over.

:17:56.:18:03.

Israel crossing the line in fourth. And in fifth place from sixth place

:18:04.:18:10.

we have the Spanish sailor, Alabau, the gold medallist from London. I

:18:11.:18:17.

think Charline Picon just got in front of the Spanish sailor. China

:18:18.:18:25.

through and then Estonia. Charline Picon definitely finished and I

:18:26.:18:29.

think she had a better result than we thought in the first race. Her

:18:30.:18:35.

petition tracker is clearly not working. We will have to take a look

:18:36.:18:38.

at the official results -- position tracker. That will affect the

:18:39.:18:46.

overall standings. Finland crossing the line and now Mexico. Thailand

:18:47.:18:52.

and Poland, very close as we cross the line. Now the Brazilian,

:18:53.:19:04.

Freitas, 26 years of age. Capsized at the start line but getting back

:19:05.:19:10.

into the race. Coming into the view, Bryony Shaw of Great Britain. Not

:19:11.:19:17.

quite making it into the front runners here in the women's

:19:18.:19:23.

windsurfing but pushed hard to recover well in this race and she is

:19:24.:19:26.

still keeping her hopes alive. Bryony Shaw in 14th in that race,

:19:27.:19:35.

she has another coming up later this afternoon but we are going back to

:19:36.:19:39.

Shirley Robertson because she was telling us about the wonderful

:19:40.:19:42.

position Nick Dempsey found himself in. Can you bring us up to date? I

:19:43.:19:47.

know it is difficult to cover but how is he doing? He is on fire! They

:19:48.:19:55.

have had two races so far, he was first in the first race and fourth

:19:56.:19:59.

in the second and I can't tell you how hard that is to do in this venue

:20:00.:20:06.

with so much going on. A great couple of days. He has one more race

:20:07.:20:13.

left today. Thank you very much. We will go back to beat sailing

:20:14.:20:16.

throughout the day. Let me tell you how things work if you are tuning

:20:17.:20:21.

into the first time. We had two channels showing you as much as we

:20:22.:20:26.

here on BBC Four until 2am and on BBC One go until 4am. We are on

:20:27.:20:33.

Copacabana beach with our shower in the background and this is one of

:20:34.:20:39.

the four main venues for these Rio Games and that includes the Lagoa

:20:40.:20:41.

Stadium where the rowing takes place. That is one area. You also

:20:42.:20:50.

have the Deodoro Stadium where we have at the rugby sevens and the

:20:51.:20:55.

modern pentathlon will be there. That is about 15 miles from here on

:20:56.:21:02.

the coast. We also have the Maracana which is about six miles north of us

:21:03.:21:05.

here which was where the opening ceremony was and the closing

:21:06.:21:10.

ceremony will be the and the men's and women's gold medal football

:21:11.:21:13.

matches. The fourth and most important where the vast majority of

:21:14.:21:18.

the sport is taking place it at the Olympic Park. We have diving,

:21:19.:21:23.

swimming, the velodrome and gymnastics and also that is where

:21:24.:21:26.

the tennis is and that is where we will take you next. We told you that

:21:27.:21:32.

Johanna Konta was ticking on Svetlana Kuznetsova. She was one set

:21:33.:21:36.

down and we will join it in the second set -- taking on.

:21:37.:21:49.

Both players have engineered four breaks of each other's serve so we

:21:50.:21:57.

are in parity in that regard but of course Kuznetsova has taken that

:21:58.:22:05.

opening set. Can Johanna Konta snatch the second and treat us to a

:22:06.:22:16.

decider? One hour and 12 played. It has been symptomatically this year,

:22:17.:22:20.

she has been responding so positively to adversity, showing a

:22:21.:22:26.

lot of character here. But get braced for a backlash because

:22:27.:22:31.

Kuznetsova is very adept at coming back.

:22:32.:22:35.

Well taken. Fortunately, the sun was behind her eyeline then.

:22:36.:23:21.

I always anticipate that this should provide some tennis Theatre. I would

:23:22.:23:31.

love to see it go the distance. Good play, using the court very

:23:32.:23:55.

effectively, Joe Konta, and consistently, more importantly. --

:23:56.:24:02.

Jo Konta. Telling return from the glum faced

:24:03.:24:42.

Kuznetsova. She really hasn't managed to get her way in the last

:24:43.:24:48.

few games at all. Konta with another couple of points for a 5-2 lead.

:24:49.:25:43.

She has an ever menacing presence in this set, Kuznetsova. Konta, to

:25:44.:25:52.

stand a chance of levelling the match, it is right here and right

:25:53.:25:56.

now and she has to get the upper hand and hold on. The Russian is so

:25:57.:26:02.

adept and tidy from the back of the court normally. Just having a bit of

:26:03.:26:06.

a wobble but you can feel her eating her way back into this. -- eeking.

:26:07.:26:21.

That is a poor drop shot, and you choose a drop shot over that kind of

:26:22.:26:26.

all it is always dangerous. It will bounce up as a consequence also that

:26:27.:26:32.

was easy pickings for the Russian. Pegged back to deuce having

:26:33.:26:35.

squandered a few game point opportunities. Can Jo Konta land a

:26:36.:26:39.

telling first serve here? Didn't miss by much, just eased out

:26:40.:27:25.

by clipping the net cord en route. Konta, who suddenly looks on the

:27:26.:27:31.

brink, has another game point opportunity here to extend her lead.

:27:32.:28:20.

Perilously close to the net on a number of occasions. She doesn't

:28:21.:28:27.

agree with that, saying she didn't hear anything. Come on, umpire!

:28:28.:28:46.

Again, far too high from Konta. Back to deuce we go in this nervy

:28:47.:29:01.

nailbiter from the British perspective. It was a nervous choice

:29:02.:29:06.

from Konta who seemed a little lost and Svetlana is very quick up to

:29:07.:29:10.

balls like that. Well, it has felt like a bit of a

:29:11.:29:50.

wispy lead and now Kuznetsova has a break point opportunity.

:29:51.:30:25.

A collective gasp around Court One here heart in mouth moment for the

:30:26.:30:36.

guys courtside. Looking twitchy as well. Kuznetsova desperate to get

:30:37.:30:39.

her teeth back into this set. There have been some strange

:30:40.:31:05.

desperate choices. The match is going through a lull, they are

:31:06.:31:09.

anxious and want to do whatever they can to get points going their way

:31:10.:31:12.

and sometimes it leads to strange decision making under pressure.

:31:13.:31:15.

Another break point for Kuznetsova here.

:31:16.:31:27.

She is not even going to challenge that, Kuznetsova delighted, she

:31:28.:31:34.

rakes that, very much into this second set. -- she break back. Just

:31:35.:31:44.

as well the lights are on so that we can see clearly. Kuznetsova is back

:31:45.:31:58.

into this. There are competing across five disciplines. Men's

:31:59.:32:02.

Singles, Women's Singles, doubles and the Mixed Doubles. Only 16 pairs

:32:03.:32:11.

in the mixed drawer. Andy Murray and Johanna Konta, I am pretty sure

:32:12.:32:18.

we'll play together. Pain. Kill me, that tad too says on the inside of

:32:19.:32:24.

her arm -- pain does not kill me, the tad too says on the inside of

:32:25.:32:27.

her arm. -- tattoo. Kuznetsova works hard.

:32:28.:32:44.

She does a lot of drills in Spain and she will just run all day in the

:32:45.:32:53.

name of getting herself into really good shape. She is a great athlete

:32:54.:32:58.

and the whole family are had agreed athletes. Her father is the renowned

:32:59.:33:07.

cycling coach, Alexander, her mother is six times world champion and her

:33:08.:33:14.

brother is a silver medallist from Atlanta's 1996. She has got the

:33:15.:33:22.

barrels going in each leg, laden with muscle and strength and it is

:33:23.:33:26.

difficult to knock off balance. Holes of the new balls to Johanna

:33:27.:33:28.

Konta. -- holes up. Three two she serves but leads a

:33:29.:33:36.

set. -- four. Well in a little nutshell, you have

:33:37.:34:45.

the harder drives from Konta which occasionally clip the net and then

:34:46.:34:51.

the more rainbow like to reject tree from Svetlana Kuznetsova whose three

:34:52.:34:56.

out most of this match has been that little bit more consistent. It has

:34:57.:35:01.

served her very well -- should Jack tree. Here she is, reducing the

:35:02.:35:05.

deficit in this second set. Took a risk their and it does not

:35:06.:35:22.

pay off. We have seen very little reward from down the line at unity

:35:23.:35:34.

on this one. -- there. The ball sets and checks up high. Also the fact

:35:35.:35:43.

that you're going across the high part of the net, the odds are facing

:35:44.:35:50.

-- favouring the crosscourt. And what Johanna Konta is grappling

:35:51.:36:21.

with is the fact that she has had her career worst year, her maiden

:36:22.:36:28.

title on the tour in a Premier five event. Stamford classic, through

:36:29.:36:36.

playing front foot, she is an aggressor, she likes to go after the

:36:37.:36:40.

play of this Court service demands that you hold back a little and make

:36:41.:36:47.

balls, because Kuznetsova levels up because she is playing the

:36:48.:36:51.

percentages better and that favours this whole situation. We are going

:36:52.:37:00.

to leave it there aren't tech things up up. Johanna Konta is 5-4 up. If

:37:01.:37:09.

she can break her here, it will go into a deciding set. We will rejoin

:37:10.:37:16.

the slide. We will go back to Court Number One and our commentators. A

:37:17.:37:22.

little sign-ups is, Johanna Konta has been wrestling with Svetlana

:37:23.:37:25.

Kuznetsova, Kuznetsova seeded eighth in this one, Konta is tenth, both

:37:26.:37:32.

top 15 players grappling with each other, they have never met before.

:37:33.:37:36.

Very tricky match for the British number one. Kuznetsova holes on to

:37:37.:37:44.

love on her own delivery and levels up on five games all, taking the

:37:45.:37:51.

opening set 6-3 after 38 minutes on this gorgeous day. 26 degrees. 5000

:37:52.:38:00.

seats here. I am delighted to have you here. Johanna Konta, she was

:38:01.:38:07.

trailing by a set but she served at 4-2. She was denied, we are a lot

:38:08.:38:15.

then at five games all. -- we are locked in. The crowd lusting after

:38:16.:38:24.

more in this gorgeous cacophony of colour on show Court One. It has

:38:25.:38:30.

been a watchable match, but in a nutshell, Johanna Konta favouring

:38:31.:38:35.

the aggressive passages of play, playing with piercing little heavy

:38:36.:38:41.

shots, Kuznetsova with the more rainbow arc is a higher percentage,

:38:42.:38:47.

more secured. Konta, it is all a little bit up and down and it has

:38:48.:38:55.

been a nervous nail-biting match for all British bands. That is

:38:56.:39:02.

synonymous with what we have seen a lot, a few too many unforced errors,

:39:03.:39:09.

she has been a bit more frugal in that regard of late. There have been

:39:10.:39:19.

so many spills. 16 from Kuznetsova. Hard to hit winners on this slow and

:39:20.:39:25.

hard court. Deadlock on the scoreboard, second set, which way

:39:26.:39:26.

will it swing? Getting a little frustrated, you can

:39:27.:39:47.

sense it. She has been really wrestling with herself today,

:39:48.:39:51.

Johanna Konta, nothing has come easy, normally hits about seven aces

:39:52.:39:56.

per batch but none today. Sorry, it was two -- match. Kuznetsova has got

:39:57.:40:01.

three. Kuznetsova understands percentage

:40:02.:40:14.

tennis and spent a lot of her time growing up on the clay of Spanish

:40:15.:40:26.

courts. Hails from Russia of course, born in St Petersburg and reside in

:40:27.:40:33.

Dubai and Monte Carlo. 20 million in the bank from career prize earnings.

:40:34.:40:56.

Two she is calling on the right baseline. -- UMPIRE:. The ball is

:40:57.:41:09.

out. Gestured by someone in the crowd, it was well out. UMPIRE:

:41:10.:41:19.

Konta has one challenge remaining. So, this spells danger for the

:41:20.:41:26.

British number one. Two more break point opportunities for Kuznetsova.

:41:27.:41:33.

She is five from nine on conversions.

:41:34.:41:43.

She has landed 62% first serves in but the majority of them have been

:41:44.:41:59.

returned by this lady, who is very strong in that apartment. --

:42:00.:42:04.

department. Johanna Konta will be delighted with

:42:05.:42:12.

that rare point. She has succumbed five times on her

:42:13.:42:26.

own delivery. That was all match. She is a giant forced in the women's

:42:27.:42:52.

game, the Russian. Twice a Grand Slam winner, US Open 2004 and French

:42:53.:42:58.

Open 2009, twice a Grand Slam finalist as well. Brilliance from

:42:59.:43:01.

Konta! Timely as well. Three points in a row for the

:43:02.:43:14.

aggressive courageous British contender. Look at that, did end

:43:15.:43:23.

range control, great dynamics, using the opposite arm for balance and

:43:24.:43:25.

then pushes back into the court, just in case, with that aggressive

:43:26.:43:27.

cross over stamp. Konta delighted. Lets out a roar of

:43:28.:44:19.

approval. She is marginally in the lead here in this second set. It has

:44:20.:44:25.

been a really watchable encounter in the second set, the first was a

:44:26.:44:30.

little one-sided, multiple breaks of serve but this second set has been a

:44:31.:44:39.

really nervous nailbiter. Had to fend off a couple of break points

:44:40.:44:43.

opportunities and serve in the game to hold on. This was the brave

:44:44.:44:47.

forehand that she's like down the line, extending her hand through the

:44:48.:44:50.

ball very well. It was ten days ago that Johanna

:44:51.:45:03.

Konta laid to make history, an opportunity to edge her name into

:45:04.:45:07.

the top ten, she was denied at Montreal by the qualifier from

:45:08.:45:13.

raptor slaver. Lost in the quarters but had she won that match, she

:45:14.:45:20.

would have gone into the top ten in the world. -- rattle slaver.

:45:21.:45:30.

That would have been breaking new ground from her. That is an

:45:31.:45:36.

illustrious group of players, top ten. She is still the first British

:45:37.:45:44.

woman ranked inside the top ten and 1984. It is her debut in the Olympic

:45:45.:45:50.

Games, 28 wins and only 16 losses this year.

:45:51.:45:58.

Little between these two in ranking. Kuznetsova is ranked tenth in the

:45:59.:46:10.

world and Konta is 13th. And it has been a really tight match.

:46:11.:46:15.

Kuznetsova serving to hold on and learn herself an opportunity to play

:46:16.:46:22.

a tie-break here. Looking for a place in the quarterfinals.

:46:23.:46:27.

Thunderous from Konta! She has chanced her arm a lot going down the

:46:28.:46:39.

line. There has been a lot of marginal errors, just spilling out

:46:40.:46:43.

by little increments but that one found its target.

:46:44.:47:05.

The umpire has been very good today, the young Australian.

:47:06.:47:14.

Kuznetsova find the line. It is tense out here, which makes it even

:47:15.:47:28.

more watchable. Look at this. Plumb on the line. Konta can't believe it.

:47:29.:47:58.

Fourth double fault from Kuznetsova. Normally pretty tidy but she is

:47:59.:48:13.

getting irritated. Jo Konta is to point away from levelling this

:48:14.:48:15.

match. -- two points. Well played, very brave from

:48:16.:48:44.

Kuznetsova. It was a terrific return from Jo Konta, the ball came up high

:48:45.:48:49.

and she looped it back commendably but to no avail in the end is the

:48:50.:48:54.

Russia stayed on the front foot and took the point -- the Russian.

:48:55.:49:30.

She has had so little tangible reward, Jo Konta, from when she has

:49:31.:49:37.

really gone after the ball. She has been defiant throughout has

:49:38.:50:27.

the Russian, Kuznetsova, resilient in the defence of her court. They

:50:28.:50:31.

have been a few phases when she has been a bit more errant than others,

:50:32.:50:35.

as there has been with Jo Konta of course but this is now a critical

:50:36.:50:41.

juncture. Good serve from Kuznetsova. It has served her well,

:50:42.:50:47.

that one also and it has tended to induce a little panic in the mind of

:50:48.:50:54.

the British number one who had a bit of a slap because the court position

:50:55.:51:01.

was so wide. Game point to take us to a tie-break.

:51:02.:51:19.

Oh! Well played! She has had some horror drop shots in this match but

:51:20.:51:34.

that was timely. Look at this off a high oncoming ball, she gripped

:51:35.:51:40.

shifted a bit as she opened the racket face and it was perfectly

:51:41.:51:42.

weighted. -- grip shifted. She is keeping a dangerous present

:51:43.:51:52.

in this game, Jo Konta. She has done it! How about that! She

:51:53.:52:17.

has tried on multiple occasions with the drop shot before this and had

:52:18.:52:22.

very little success but against the shift of the grip and takes the pace

:52:23.:52:30.

off and that is brave. Kuznetsova has withstood a lot of stern test of

:52:31.:52:33.

character throughout this match will Jo Konta with a set point

:52:34.:52:36.

opportunity on the Russian serve. And the crowd are going to get

:52:37.:53:15.

rewarded in this terrific battle because we are going to be treated

:53:16.:53:22.

to a third and deciding set. Jo Konta snatches the second, 7-5. Game

:53:23.:53:24.

on! Remarkable second set from Johanna

:53:25.:53:38.

Konta. The representative of Great Britain will go into a deciding set

:53:39.:53:43.

against Svetlana Kuznetsova. She looked like she might lose it on

:53:44.:53:47.

several occasions but a brilliant performance from Konta who also goes

:53:48.:53:51.

in the Mixed Doubles with Jamie Murray. That will continue on the

:53:52.:53:56.

BBC website. We will build up not only to some diving where there is a

:53:57.:54:06.

medal chance for Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson but we will have some

:54:07.:54:09.

rugby sevens as well because there were some great matches in the men's

:54:10.:54:13.

game earlier. Australia took the gold medal in the women's event.

:54:14.:54:20.

Great Britain are in a strong group which is very strong. Great Britain

:54:21.:54:28.

beat ten year earlier. But look at that for a surprise in the game

:54:29.:54:33.

between New Zealand and Japan. Japan somehow beat South Africa in the

:54:34.:54:36.

World Cup last year in one of the big upsets of all time. And they

:54:37.:54:41.

produced another one today come this time against the overwhelming

:54:42.:54:45.

favourites, New Zealand, and if you missed it, here is a quick reminder

:54:46.:54:47.

of what happened. New Zealand against Japan, always

:54:48.:54:55.

one of the sites of rugby to see the All Blacks in action. Has that gone

:54:56.:55:05.

wrong? No, it is going to be a try for Goto as Japan take the lead. New

:55:06.:55:11.

Zealand don't look in their stride at the moment. Kaka on the outside.

:55:12.:55:19.

It takes three to put him down but New Zealand are a way. It is a long

:55:20.:55:26.

run in a clean break out and the first score for them by Scott Curry.

:55:27.:55:32.

Sonny Bill is down, that is not good for New Zealand. That is a sad

:55:33.:55:38.

sight, he does not look good. It pops out to Akira Ioane, the power!

:55:39.:55:52.

A penalty to Japan, quickly taken and it is going to be a try for

:55:53.:56:05.

Soejima! Japan are in the lead. That is one of the best kicks I have

:56:06.:56:12.

seen. The chance now, Lewis Ormond, it is out! The whistle goes and

:56:13.:56:21.

Japan have beaten New Zealand! 14-12.

:56:22.:56:26.

An incredible result and we can join John Inverdale because we will be

:56:27.:56:33.

concentrating on rugby for the next few hours with Team GB coming up

:56:34.:56:37.

against Japan and New Zealand against Kenya. And the first day has

:56:38.:56:39.

really delivered so far. Absolutely fantastic. They play a BT

:56:40.:56:49.

before the players come out which is joy is the sound of Samba which is

:56:50.:56:55.

about the joy of playing rugby -- a VT. I think this is the most joyous

:56:56.:56:59.

event here and what a fantastic addition it is. Not so joyful for

:57:00.:57:05.

New Zealand but Japan, in the wake that Bates bucked the 15 aside World

:57:06.:57:09.

Cup into action last year, so they have an put this into like -- in the

:57:10.:57:18.

way that they sparked the 15 aside World Cup into action. Eve

:57:19.:57:23.

is -- Keith Robertson, his son is part of the Great Britain team. We

:57:24.:57:32.

will talk about Mark in a second and about Great Britain being so

:57:33.:57:37.

impressive against Kenya but as a man from the Borders, with seven

:57:38.:57:41.

aside in your DNA, what does it mean to the people of Galashiels and

:57:42.:57:46.

everywhere else for their game to be here on the world stage? To see the

:57:47.:57:53.

seventh game developing like it has done, what we believed was such a

:57:54.:57:57.

brilliant game from the outset, it is fantastic. And to seek such a

:57:58.:58:03.

carnival atmosphere around all of the events worldwide, it is

:58:04.:58:07.

fantastic. We do not have mark with us because he has more important

:58:08.:58:12.

things to do but how proud is he to be part of a Great Britain team

:58:13.:58:18.

given his background? He struggled to keep his emotions in when he

:58:19.:58:24.

phoned to tell us. You can hear in my voice now, just an unbelievable

:58:25.:58:28.

occasion for the family, for Melrose as a town, to have the first

:58:29.:58:32.

Scottish rugby player in a Great Britain team in an Olympic

:58:33.:58:36.

tournament. To have the first Olympian coming from Melrose is

:58:37.:58:39.

incredible. They were very impressive this morning. They were.

:58:40.:58:44.

We were concerned in the one ups that they were playing as

:58:45.:58:48.

individuals but Simon Amor has pulled them together and they are

:58:49.:58:50.

playing a good brand and spreading the ball around. They stretched

:58:51.:58:55.

Kenya which they had to do because they are very physical. They are

:58:56.:59:00.

tough to beat. Much easier than what I thought but they played very well.

:59:01.:59:05.

It will be fascinating to see how Japan get on second time around

:59:06.:59:09.

having beaten the All Blacks. Lovely to see you, go and enjoy an amazing

:59:10.:59:15.

family experience. Thank you. One thing to tell you, we mentioned

:59:16.:59:19.

Sonny Bill Williams earlier, he's out the Olympics with an Achilles

:59:20.:59:23.

injury which is a major blow to the All Blacks and it will be

:59:24.:59:26.

fascinating to how they regroup as a consequence. The Great Britain match

:59:27.:59:36.

against Japan with live on BBC for later this evening.

:59:37.:59:40.

That is at 9pm and we will also have New Zealand against Kenya at 9:30pm.

:59:41.:59:49.

This is what is happening on BBC One at the moment with the women's team

:59:50.:59:53.

gymnastics. We saw Team GB finishing fourth in the men yesterday. Johanna

:59:54.:00:02.

Konta, you can watch her match against Svetlana Kuznetsova, the

:00:03.:00:06.

deciding set come on the website and the reason we had to leave it is

:00:07.:00:11.

because it is time to go diving. Yesterday we had Tom Daley and

:00:12.:00:15.

Daniel Goodfellow taking the bronze so how will the niqabs and Lois

:00:16.:00:24.

Toulson get on? Bob Ballard and Leon Taylor are your commentators.

:00:25.:00:35.

Good afternoon. With all the excitement with the men yesterday,

:00:36.:00:43.

can be magic? Daniel Goodfellow and Tom Daley went last in the pecking

:00:44.:00:48.

order. We have eight peers as yesterday. By the Romans with the

:00:49.:00:54.

women. The first two macaroons are the

:00:55.:01:08.

requireds. The USA kicking us off, diving into

:01:09.:01:27.

the green pond. I am not sure what happened overnight but we are

:01:28.:01:30.

looking at a very green diving pool. It is the reverse died in the pike

:01:31.:01:35.

position. The American pair just making a slight error on the

:01:36.:01:39.

take-off, there is a bicycle sized gap in between them. The judges will

:01:40.:01:45.

pick -- peena lies that. It will be around eight or 8.5. Other than

:01:46.:01:49.

that, the synchronisation is very good. 8.5 counts. The other -- you

:01:50.:02:02.

multiply it by the degree of difficulty matters what gives you

:02:03.:02:07.

48.6. I will try to explain the scoring, I know it is complicated. I

:02:08.:02:15.

know you will be mathematically sound.

:02:16.:02:37.

This is the Mexican pair. The synchronisation from the Mexican

:02:38.:02:45.

peril was superior to the Americans who opened up. Perfectly timed

:02:46.:02:52.

take-off. Correct distances from the diving board. Hitting the water at

:02:53.:02:57.

the same time. Synchronisation is bang on. I would not be surprised if

:02:58.:03:03.

we saw 1990.5 from a brief judge. The execution was much of a

:03:04.:03:11.

Execution marks will appear on the left-hand side of your screen. The

:03:12.:03:18.

ones that do not have a line through them will carry. Synchronisation is

:03:19.:03:27.

on the right of your screen. They hit the ceiling of 50.4. If they hit

:03:28.:03:33.

50 on the screen who know they have done well. The big cheer to lead the

:03:34.:03:41.

arrival of Oliveira will and Giovanna for Brazil.

:03:42.:03:56.

It will be a back dive with panic. -- with pike.

:03:57.:04:13.

Pretty good start from the whole nation paving. Working hard to

:04:14.:04:28.

prepare for these Olympic Games. This is just for the commentators

:04:29.:04:31.

and the audience at home so we get to see what goes on, the judge does

:04:32.:04:36.

not get to see it. They hit the water at the same time to that part

:04:37.:04:40.

of the surprises was good. They were off time with other things. The

:04:41.:04:47.

synchronisation will be around 7.5. That is a fair mark for the

:04:48.:04:57.

Brazilian player. They have the lowest marks, not surprisingly. We

:04:58.:05:03.

anticipated they would. We are going from one end of the skill to the

:05:04.:05:09.

other end. The defending champions, but not the same pairing as the last

:05:10.:05:12.

time. It is Chen Ruo Lin and Liu Hui Xia

:05:13.:05:34.

this time. Pick the bones out of that one. From where I am sitting, I

:05:35.:05:38.

am right in line with the diving boards. I could not see any

:05:39.:05:42.

faltering at all from the synchronisation point of view. This

:05:43.:05:46.

was a mirror image. Cascading down together. This is going to be at

:05:47.:05:55.

least 99.5s for execution and for execution. -- and synchronisation.

:05:56.:06:04.

This is going to get close to 54. Last year's world champions. Chen

:06:05.:06:11.

Ruo Lin and Liu Hui Xia. They like it but how much do the judges like

:06:12.:06:15.

it? They like it a lot, that is the answer. It is nearly 56. The maximum

:06:16.:06:26.

you can get only 2.0 dive is 16 points. -- 60.

:06:27.:06:37.

The Mexicans had the biggest I've. -- biggest dive. Let us move on to

:06:38.:06:48.

the Malaysians. They are to be reckoned with.

:06:49.:06:57.

Exquisite dive. They won a silver medal at this very pool in February

:06:58.:07:08.

at the world diving cup. Earning a spot by rights at the Olympic Games.

:07:09.:07:14.

You stand on the edge of the diving board but jump away and spin

:07:15.:07:18.

backwards. Not as nice as the Chinese pair. It will be over 50

:07:19.:07:23.

points or it will be very much in the mix. We do not see many people

:07:24.:07:31.

dropping off on making a huge leader Judy on the first two macaroons

:07:32.:07:40.

because the limited of difficulty. -- first two rands.

:07:41.:08:01.

We move a different North Korean hearing from last year. We have two

:08:02.:08:13.

Kims this time for North Korea. They are going to do the back dive that

:08:14.:08:17.

with pike. They were third at the world Championships last year. It

:08:18.:08:22.

looks pretty good to me. I have not seen most of them in training. I am

:08:23.:08:27.

flying blind a little bit with regards to the form and how they are

:08:28.:08:33.

as a Perth. North Korea, qualified with the bronze at the world

:08:34.:08:38.

Championships last year's. They decided to field this pairing of Kim

:08:39.:08:44.

and Kim. Their names are synchronised and the opening round

:08:45.:08:49.

dive isn't so bad. You can see on the replay hitting the water at

:08:50.:08:52.

marginally different times. Getting the feedback from the coaches. Just

:08:53.:08:59.

a law that 50 point mark. In between the Mexicans and the USA at this

:09:00.:09:04.

stage. We welcome to the ten-metre bought the Canadians of Meaghan

:09:05.:09:16.

Benfeito and Roslyn Philly on. The Canadians are very much in full

:09:17.:09:23.

voice here. Next up it will be Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson. The Chinese

:09:24.:09:32.

have got a little bit of the lead early on. This pairing and going to

:09:33.:09:46.

be all guns blazing today. So experience, a World Championship

:09:47.:09:51.

bronze medal back in 2005. They have been top of this event ever since.

:09:52.:09:56.

Getting a medal in every major competition including London 2012

:09:57.:09:59.

will be won a bronze medal in fine fashion. Mental Mac for

:10:00.:10:06.

synchronisation and less than that on the execution.

:10:07.:10:16.

52.8% alongside Malaysia, exactly the same mark as we saw. First of

:10:17.:10:27.

five guys for Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson. Different combination. It

:10:28.:10:34.

used to be easier barrel that took part but she will be in the

:10:35.:10:38.

individual competition. -- Sarah Farren.

:10:39.:10:47.

It is still a work in progress. There are elements that are coming

:10:48.:10:55.

together nicely. Let us see if they can back it up.

:10:56.:11:16.

If you can hear that as clearly as me, that was the magic revealed on

:11:17.:11:22.

how synchronised divers take off at the same time. Ready, one, two,

:11:23.:11:31.

three, goal. They have been working very hard. Lovely opening round

:11:32.:11:36.

dive. Lois Toulson was farther away than Tonia Couch. YouTube and

:11:37.:11:42.

synchronisation. Solid execution, 50 points on the nose, I would guess.

:11:43.:11:50.

As predicted, very much bunched up to - seven, nothing to choose from

:11:51.:11:54.

them. The Chinese have a little bit of a margin over the rest. We are

:11:55.:12:01.

talking about 52, 50 and 40 nine. -- 49. It will be China head by some

:12:02.:12:10.

margin. And then Canada and Malaysia to govern. -- together.

:12:11.:12:28.

Round two and you have just joined us, and are not familiar with

:12:29.:12:35.

diving, the first round in both the men and women ten-metre, it is worth

:12:36.:12:47.

2.0. Six rounds for the men. The weather conditions are very

:12:48.:12:50.

different today from the first two days. We had blazing sunshine will

:12:51.:12:54.

stop the sun is right and faces at the moment as well. It is not

:12:55.:13:03.

affecting the divers. They make to be affected by the green algae in

:13:04.:13:08.

the swimming pool. The blue of the water polo pool and then look at

:13:09.:13:12.

that. Maybe they have covered it to be in keeping with the dressing of

:13:13.:13:16.

the swerving pool, you can see the blue and green. They did not do that

:13:17.:13:20.

on the first two days. I am just kidding. Round two. We start with

:13:21.:13:32.

this relatively new combination of Amelia Cozad and Jessica Parratto

:13:33.:13:35.

for America. The RA work in progress. That is a well executed

:13:36.:13:42.

second round dive from the Americans. It is always tough

:13:43.:13:55.

opening up an American final. This is

:13:56.:13:55.

the back was dive in the pike position. The judges do not get to

:13:56.:14:05.

see the replay. That is just for our enjoyment. I think they have a go

:14:06.:14:10.

there first round dive. They will be just around the 100 points mark.

:14:11.:14:20.

50.4 it is to add to the 48.6 in the opening round. The competition does

:14:21.:14:26.

not really start to involve until we get to round three. The difficulty

:14:27.:14:33.

will go up to the or in the case of Mexico, 3.3.

:14:34.:14:49.

There's a slight difference in what you had seen so far from Paola

:14:50.:14:57.

Espinosa and Alejandra Orozco. Beautifully done. Back in 1.5

:14:58.:15:03.

somersaults with the half twist. They do the half twist frost and

:15:04.:15:08.

then fall into the pipe shape together. The key is to get that

:15:09.:15:12.

execution to kneel the vertical entry splash was. Or almost splash

:15:13.:15:18.

list. Hit the water at the same time. I think it could be nameds on

:15:19.:15:26.

synchronisation. If you get it slightly wrong it can look... They

:15:27.:15:33.

could go in at different angles and the judges have been quite harsh.

:15:34.:15:38.

The judges are the experts. I am just an observer.

:15:39.:15:45.

She is in her fourth Olympic Games, started in Athens, Espinosa, back

:15:46.:15:56.

for another medal to match what she got in London 2012. Now, the

:15:57.:16:01.

Brazilians, they positioned themselves well yesterday. These are

:16:02.:16:08.

the rudimentary dives, relatively straightforward ones for them.

:16:09.:16:12.

Should not lose too much ground here, Ingrid Oliveira and Giovanna

:16:13.:16:18.

Pedroso for Brazil. They will execute a reverse dive with Pike.

:16:19.:16:29.

Welcome you can see the first gaps appearing, the take-off was out of

:16:30.:16:34.

time. It is a race to the water, without any booster rockets, you are

:16:35.:16:38.

not going to catch up when there is a slight difference in take-off. You

:16:39.:16:44.

can see hitting the water out of time, and the judges... They

:16:45.:16:47.

normally penalised it quite heavily. They do take-off marks when they hit

:16:48.:16:54.

the water at different times, they sharpen their pencils and takeaway a

:16:55.:17:02.

lot of marks. Sevens forcing pro? 7.5s. Feeling buoyant with the home

:17:03.:17:11.

support. We call it the plop plop effect. -- for the synchronisation?

:17:12.:17:19.

Not taking off as much as we thought. 45 to add to their 44.4.

:17:20.:17:24.

They will not be in the shake-up at the end, but they knew that. The

:17:25.:17:33.

wind begins to whip around the Maria Lenk Aquatics Centre new. -- venue.

:17:34.:17:48.

This pair are super solid. A beautiful reverse dive, you can see

:17:49.:17:51.

the difference from the Brazilian pair. In fact, it looks like one

:17:52.:17:57.

diver all the way through. It is as good as a ten for synchronisation

:17:58.:18:02.

for me. The judges... It is a discretion as to whether they think

:18:03.:18:10.

it is or not. 9.5s, there we go. They replicated what they did in the

:18:11.:18:15.

first round, 55.8, matching it in the second round. You can see that

:18:16.:18:21.

chasm opening up between them and the rest. They are on fire, inform,

:18:22.:18:28.

and probably with three more rounds to go, nobody will catch them. In

:18:29.:18:35.

second and third... These two are more than capable of getting the

:18:36.:18:39.

second or third place. Remember, these two from the

:18:40.:18:42.

Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh a couple of years ago. Everybody else

:18:43.:18:52.

pretty much doing the reverse dive in this round, but they are going

:18:53.:19:02.

with a Pike. Holding on with an aggressive take-off, the wind is

:19:03.:19:06.

swelling and there are pigeons flying around. The sun is in my

:19:07.:19:11.

eyes, there are all kinds of things. -- swirling. The diver rule had to

:19:12.:19:16.

concentrate. The Malaysians pair holding it together. Close to the

:19:17.:19:24.

magic 50 points. They could even get more than that? Here they come...

:19:25.:19:35.

52.8 is the total. Henry Blofeld could be going for the

:19:36.:19:45.

buses...? On the North Korean power, last year they won a bronze medal in

:19:46.:19:52.

the championships but it is a different combination this time --

:19:53.:19:57.

the North Korean pair. Last year it was Kim and Song, this year it is

:19:58.:20:04.

two Kims. 39.80 for their first I've.

:20:05.:20:13.

-- 40 9.80 for their first dive. A superb effort from double Kim.

:20:14.:20:22.

Almost morphing into one diver like their name. The synchronisation was

:20:23.:20:27.

superb. Touching their toes at the same time. Reaching back... And

:20:28.:20:38.

faltering. Beautiful, -- and faltering. It is people getting

:20:39.:20:46.

greener? It is really weird. It is not a problem with an HDTV! Somebody

:20:47.:20:53.

has bought a big TV today, and gone... This TV is terrible, I can't

:20:54.:20:58.

see any thing! Neither can we, it looks strange beneath the water, I

:20:59.:21:04.

hope the underwater camera can cope with it. It might be yellow or

:21:05.:21:13.

orange tomorrow... Second place at the moment, a decent

:21:14.:21:18.

start, a good 52.8 opener for the Canadians. We have seen this a few

:21:19.:21:23.

times in this round, we will see it again shortly from the Brits.

:21:24.:21:27.

Meaghan Benfeito and Roseline Filion are going for their reverse dive.

:21:28.:21:36.

Solid, consistent, very comfortable out there. Just knocking off the

:21:37.:21:46.

first two rounds of dive, you can flex your muscles and get into the

:21:47.:21:52.

competition. So, even better than their opening dive. It is a fine

:21:53.:22:01.

pair of required dives to open up. The Canadians have already medalled

:22:02.:22:07.

in this event, bronze in 2012, can they go better? As the wind begins

:22:08.:22:15.

to swell and swirl. I asked one of the organisers why the pool is

:22:16.:22:20.

green, and he says "I don't know". Nobody is telling us anything on

:22:21.:22:28.

that front! 52.8 for the Canadians. That puts them in joint second at

:22:29.:22:34.

the moment. I say at the moment, the Brits are up next and by now, you

:22:35.:22:38.

have the chance to see exactly how that I've should be executed.

:22:39.:22:41.

Perhaps they could do slightly better?

:22:42.:22:46.

52.40 in their opening dive, we get into the bigger numbers after this.

:22:47.:22:53.

-- 50.4 zero. Second dive from Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson. One, two,

:22:54.:23:00.

three, go... Much better, a beautiful synchronisation! Really

:23:01.:23:05.

classy all the way through, from an execution point of view, both Tonia

:23:06.:23:10.

Couch and Lois Toulson tipping over the vertical. You see the little

:23:11.:23:14.

splash going towards the diving board. Both tipping over a vertical,

:23:15.:23:19.

and execution will probably be around 7.5s and eights for both of

:23:20.:23:24.

them. Synchronisation was beautiful all the way through. They might go

:23:25.:23:30.

8.5s and maybe even nines, if they do, the girls will be over 100

:23:31.:23:35.

points. Are they? They seem happy, they passed three figures. Very much

:23:36.:23:47.

within the top three. Everybody else is in contention aside from the

:23:48.:23:51.

Brazilians, this is what it was after the two required rounds...

:23:52.:24:01.

Pretty much all seven pairings in line for a medal, and Brazil find

:24:02.:24:10.

themselves about ten points adrift. Just to put it in perspective, all

:24:11.:24:16.

of the gaps there, even between the remainder of the field and the

:24:17.:24:24.

Chinese is very closable. Anything over 70 points is excellent,

:24:25.:24:27.

anything over 80 points is mind blowing the good. With the degree of

:24:28.:24:35.

difficulty, ranging mainly from 3.0, 3.2s, 3.3s, we will see some big

:24:36.:24:41.

scores providing the execution and synchronisation as it comes off as

:24:42.:24:46.

it does in training. Can they do it when it counts? When the pool is

:24:47.:24:51.

lime green, when the sun is setting and the wind is swelling. Let's see

:24:52.:24:57.

what happens? Off go the Americans... The crowd were

:24:58.:25:02.

impressed, I'm not sure many of them have seen diving before, it's

:25:03.:25:06.

impressive when you see optional rounds of dives, it is a 3.0 forward

:25:07.:25:11.

3.5 in pike position. Folding the hips and keeping legs

:25:12.:25:15.

straight. Rotation speeds were pretty much in time. As they come to

:25:16.:25:20.

the end of the diving board, popping up and driving the hips up and over,

:25:21.:25:25.

you can just see on the replay very clearly the and synchronisation.

:25:26.:25:35.

They hit the water at the same time? That does not happen --

:25:36.:25:45.

un-synchronisation. I'm quite surprised by that. Those marks that

:25:46.:25:56.

don't have a line through them counts towards the total. In that

:25:57.:26:02.

case, 65.70, when multiplied by degree of difficulty by 3.0. The

:26:03.:26:08.

Americans are on 106 to 4.7 at this stage, they would have hoped for

:26:09.:26:19.

more from that died. -- 164.7. Wonderful synchronisation all the

:26:20.:26:26.

way... It is great when you see like-for-like, you can really begin

:26:27.:26:31.

to compare. Are these spin speeds in time? Yes. Do they hit the water at

:26:32.:26:35.

the same time? Yes. Are they the same distance from

:26:36.:26:40.

the diving board? Yes. Execution wise, they both tip over, probably

:26:41.:26:45.

over rotating, they were only get 6.5-7 on execution. BOOING

:26:46.:26:54.

Let's wait for confirmation on the scores, they never appear on the

:26:55.:26:58.

screen until they are confirmed. They are now. 71 points is a good

:26:59.:27:03.

score. The diving experts in the auditorium to -- do not agree. Good

:27:04.:27:13.

enough to put them in the lead for the time being. This is a very

:27:14.:27:18.

intricate dive for these two, isn't it? In pike position and a 1.5

:27:19.:27:30.

twist, I don't know if it is above their capabilities? We will find

:27:31.:27:35.

out, it is a big tariff for the figures they have in their

:27:36.:27:44.

programme. That's impressive stuff, isn't it? That is much better than

:27:45.:27:51.

their opening two rounds of dives from a synchronisation point of

:27:52.:27:57.

view, world-class. 3.2 degrees of difficulty, 1.5 twists, 2.5

:27:58.:28:06.

somersaults. While! They are bowling already! BOOING

:28:07.:28:12.

Maybe they can in and can explain exactly how judging works, it can be

:28:13.:28:16.

misleading when you see execution marks as they come up -- booing.

:28:17.:28:21.

They will probably be 7.5s... That is a great dive. Trademarks. That is

:28:22.:28:29.

the expectation of the Brazilian fans, wanting nines and 9.5s, they

:28:30.:28:34.

will not get there with the standard of these divers. They were pushing

:28:35.:28:38.

the boat out on these ones a little and they did very well indeed.

:28:39.:28:46.

Forward 3.5 somersaults for the Chinese pairing, with a pike for the

:28:47.:28:54.

Chinese. Now we are starting to see things hotting up in this very green

:28:55.:28:59.

pool. Everyone asking between my comments has no idea why it is

:29:00.:29:05.

green. -- everyone I am asking. It looks like they are getting out of

:29:06.:29:10.

the sea! A beautiful dive, top notch stuff from Our World champions.

:29:11.:29:18.

Straight up and down, hardly a ripple, close to 80 points, is huge

:29:19.:29:26.

effort on a 3.0. The pool is getting greener, everybody is scratching

:29:27.:29:28.

their heads but the Chinese are rocking it. Someone arriving with a

:29:29.:29:39.

fishnet? Very strange, but as you saw yesterday, with Tom and Stan,

:29:40.:29:44.

the pool did not look in that complexion at all. -- Dan. Today it

:29:45.:29:49.

is looking distinctly green! Nobody can, at the moment, give an

:29:50.:29:53.

explanation as to why that should be.

:29:54.:29:55.

Now we will concentrate on diving for the time being and not be too

:29:56.:29:57.

distracted by the algae! That is a remarkable effort. This is

:29:58.:30:17.

going to be fantastic, we will see like-for-like. The Chinese have set

:30:18.:30:21.

us off and Malaysia are following with their own version of that dive.

:30:22.:30:27.

It is pretty much like for like. Really nice, perfect spin speeds.

:30:28.:30:32.

Same distance from the diving board. They should get nameds for

:30:33.:30:36.

synchronisation. They should be in the mid-70s. The Chinese pair were

:30:37.:30:44.

in the 80s. From an execution point of view, just a little bit of splash

:30:45.:30:51.

is one of them went in. That is a cracking dive. Definitely in the

:30:52.:30:59.

medal contention with that. China are eight points ahead. Mexico are

:31:00.:31:02.

just behind the Malaysians in second place. We expected it would hot up

:31:03.:31:09.

in round three. Everybody is doing pretty much the same dive.

:31:10.:31:38.

Synchronisation was not quite as long as we saw from the Chinese and

:31:39.:31:44.

Malaysians. Different spin speeds and at different distances from the

:31:45.:31:48.

diving board. In my opinion that is not quite as good. The execution is

:31:49.:31:55.

bang on. Look at the differing spin speeds. Different distances from the

:31:56.:32:02.

diving board. The crowd are letting us know they do not like the marks.

:32:03.:32:09.

There are quite a genderless. -- quite generous. It is a generous on

:32:10.:32:21.

the right-hand side of the screen. Different distances and spin speeds.

:32:22.:32:26.

It is a very small difference but this is the Olympic Games. It is a

:32:27.:32:32.

subjective sport and we do not always agree with the marks. It was

:32:33.:32:44.

just half a point. 81 for the Koreans. Note to the forward 3.5

:32:45.:32:49.

from the Canadians. Let us see if they can match it. I think they can

:32:50.:32:55.

match it. In my opinion, synchronisation was better than the

:32:56.:33:00.

North Koreans. The execution not quite as good. The synchronisation

:33:01.:33:10.

has got nameds written all over it. The spin speed was the same for the

:33:11.:33:15.

first 2.5 somersaults. The judges do not get to see the replays. Look at

:33:16.:33:23.

it in slow motion, you can see the differences appealing. The same

:33:24.:33:28.

difference from the diving board the water at the same time. Just a

:33:29.:33:35.

little bit scruffy on the execution. It was halfway mark. Daschle was

:33:36.:33:45.

half a mark. If it is as tight as we expected to be, that could be all

:33:46.:33:52.

the difference. It needs to be good. This diet has been done by pretty

:33:53.:33:57.

much every peer in round three. -- this dive.

:33:58.:34:05.

It would be nice if these two could get into the 80s. If they do, they

:34:06.:34:14.

will be touching on the top two. Which is currently China and North

:34:15.:34:19.

Korea. Here comes Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson. Last round of -- last

:34:20.:34:28.

dive of round three. It is a forward 3.5 somersaults with pike. Wonderful

:34:29.:34:41.

dive. The execution is so important. We are looking for a splash list

:34:42.:34:46.

entry. They have both delivered. The girls are bang on the money. It is

:34:47.:34:51.

good from entry into the water at the same time. Just margin of eight

:34:52.:34:58.

different on distances. The Lois Toulson is just slightly farther

:34:59.:35:01.

away from the diving board. That should be in the mid-70s at least

:35:02.:35:07.

and that'll keep them in contention. 75.6 is the mark for Tonia Couch and

:35:08.:35:15.

Lois Toulson. It would now appear on your screen. They are inside of the

:35:16.:35:24.

top three. They are in fifth position. -- insight of. We enter

:35:25.:35:34.

the last two rounds. They will be questions about the hot tub. End of

:35:35.:35:46.

round three. China then North Korea and Malaysia. The gap between three

:35:47.:35:49.

and five is six points at the moment. The hot tub that I often get

:35:50.:36:02.

asked questions about. We go back right on cue. You can see the

:36:03.:36:07.

Chinese pair having a rest. The reason that the divers can choose to

:36:08.:36:11.

go into a hardtop is to keep the muscles warm to stop it is quite

:36:12.:36:15.

called on the poolside. Diving takes place one at a time. When you are

:36:16.:36:20.

diving in training you are constantly in the water. By using

:36:21.:36:27.

the showers like some divers like to use the Jacuzzi, you keep your

:36:28.:36:30.

muscles warm and you keep yourself prepared and ready physically. This

:36:31.:36:36.

competition will last for just over one hour. The ladies justify dies

:36:37.:36:45.

each. -- the ladies just do buy backs each.

:36:46.:37:02.

We will concentrate on the diving. In Ward 3.5 somersaults with tuck

:37:03.:37:07.

this time for the USA. -- Ian Ward. Faltering all the way through. It

:37:08.:37:22.

started to go wrong ever so slightly on the take-off. One driver was

:37:23.:37:33.

using the trapdoor. The partner over rotates. The first marks you see on

:37:34.:37:39.

the scheme and we are around five. Massive over rotation by Jennifer on

:37:40.:37:43.

the right of the screen. She froze up lots of splash. The

:37:44.:37:47.

synchronisation marks will be mediocre at the best.

:37:48.:38:09.

We are waiting for a diver to come out like a creature from the blue

:38:10.:38:16.

Lagoon. I think I can see some slippery salmon. Somebody had to

:38:17.:38:25.

send me a picture of finding Nemo. Onto the Mexicans. We're getting

:38:26.:38:30.

distracted. The biggest dive of the day for the Mexicans. It is

:38:31.:38:38.

high-risk and it is not paid off for them. That is unfortunate. 3.3 of

:38:39.:38:45.

difficulty. What's going on. What's that can go wrong. The overhead shot

:38:46.:38:50.

does not give us the view that the judges will see. Standing right on

:38:51.:39:01.

the corner of the board, isn't she? Execution will let them down. The

:39:02.:39:09.

divers going short of vertical. Paola Espinosa making a mistake

:39:10.:39:17.

which you do not normally see. The door is opening here. The door is

:39:18.:39:28.

opening. Is it a green door? There was another theory going around that

:39:29.:39:31.

because it is Brazilian colours. That is why the swimming pool is

:39:32.:39:38.

green. That is what I said. Nobody seems to know if it is the case. It

:39:39.:39:50.

is just odd. It is a different colour to the sky so it is actually

:39:51.:39:55.

perfect on the diving point of view. I have got a good idea. In Ward 3.5

:39:56.:40:05.

with tuck. It is cheaper to difficulty.

:40:06.:40:26.

I am letting the pictures do the talking. It is only fives on

:40:27.:40:35.

synchronisation. One driver over rotated. No execution marks. The

:40:36.:40:43.

crowd will do as they normally do. Those marks a very fair if not a

:40:44.:40:54.

genderless. -- generous. You think it looks easy but it is not. The

:40:55.:41:00.

Brazilian paper just outside the top 12 in the world. -- Brazilian pair.

:41:01.:41:06.

It shows you how difficult it is to get these dies in sync and executed

:41:07.:41:08.

well. We get onto the inward 3.5 from the

:41:09.:41:19.

Chinese. It is compare and contrast. It is a

:41:20.:41:34.

brilliant effort from the Chinese pair who are about to shut the front

:41:35.:41:38.

door and lead everyone else but Heinz. In Ward 3.5. Spin speeds

:41:39.:41:47.

identical. Both divers over rotating.

:41:48.:42:05.

You will probably see nameds on synchronisation. Look of -- look at

:42:06.:42:11.

the tape on her neck, holding everything in place. This is the

:42:12.:42:16.

least impressive so far in terms of their marks. They still have got a

:42:17.:42:24.

big lead over everyone else. Mexico and USA in two and three. Still four

:42:25.:42:31.

peers to go. We move on to the Malaysians. They have a strong

:42:32.:42:38.

finish to the programmes will expect them to make a move into the top

:42:39.:42:42.

three. There are food after round three. They will consolidate again

:42:43.:42:45.

with the inward 3.5. They are working together

:42:46.:43:19.

beautifully. That is just a fraction off but pretty much there or

:43:20.:43:24.

thereabouts. That is like -- like-for-like with the Chinese pair.

:43:25.:43:34.

The Chinese got 75. That is probably better from you. High fives from the

:43:35.:43:40.

coaches, they agree, what's to celebrate. They are only five points

:43:41.:43:51.

by the Chinese with one round to go. There's still the potential for an

:43:52.:44:01.

upset. They are going for the same dive. Only five points between them.

:44:02.:44:06.

It is interesting pressure being put on the Chinese now. And now we watch

:44:07.:44:12.

North Korea with their inward 3.5. They are in second place after round

:44:13.:44:18.

three. Different combination got the bronze last year.

:44:19.:44:25.

Solid. A diver closest to me, she drilled hard drive. Execution was

:44:26.:44:38.

going to be into the nameds at very least. -- the nines. Execution will

:44:39.:44:56.

be lower. Synchronisation is good. Eight and 8.5. North Korea very much

:44:57.:45:07.

in the medal max. Some 25, 79 and 70 six. That is very tidy. Malaysia

:45:08.:45:24.

have moved above North Korea. It is tight in the top three. If they get

:45:25.:45:39.

a nine across the board with Meaghan Benfeito and was in the Lyon, they

:45:40.:45:43.

will go into first place. It is still some room to renew for four

:45:44.:45:53.

Canada. -- room to manoeuvre. That is the aborted dive. I have seen

:45:54.:45:59.

them mail this and I have seen them falter, this is somewhere in

:46:00.:46:05.

between. The Olympic rings on her right foot. Back 3.5 somersaults in

:46:06.:46:11.

the tuck position. It is good but will it be good enough? She does a

:46:12.:46:20.

magical save, closest to us. She arches through the water. Get import

:46:21.:46:25.

of the need to stay on the cusp. . This is super close.

:46:26.:46:36.

Hopefully, she will be joined by Lois Toulson and Tonia Couch of

:46:37.:46:43.

Great Britain. We've seen the Brazilians do it already and plenty

:46:44.:46:46.

will be doing it in round five, the USA and China will do it, Malaysia,

:46:47.:46:51.

North Korea and Canada are all doing this dive in round five. But Great

:46:52.:46:56.

Britain have decided to go with it in round four.

:46:57.:47:05.

A bit of detail behind the back, 2.5 somersaults, 1.5 twist. Now, nines

:47:06.:47:10.

for Great Britain would put them in second place.

:47:11.:47:16.

Can they get close to that? Close to 80 points? If they can, they are up

:47:17.:47:32.

there. One, two, three, go... Yes! Come on, girls! That's it, just when

:47:33.:47:40.

the pressure is starting to mount... Beautiful dive, 1.5 twists. Into the

:47:41.:47:47.

pike shape. Reaching into the water, their synchronisation is excellent.

:47:48.:47:52.

This will get high 70s, I hope over 80 points... Well done Tonya and

:47:53.:47:59.

Lois, you are very much in the mix. Let's see what the scoreboard is

:48:00.:48:04.

going to be like... Beautiful diving. Terrific died from our

:48:05.:48:12.

girls. This is ridiculous, we will see the scores.

:48:13.:48:16.

Brilliant, right on the cusp of 80. -- a brilliant dive.

:48:17.:48:22.

They are into fourth place, but it is so tight. They are looking for

:48:23.:48:27.

three medals going in round five. The final round for the women coming

:48:28.:48:31.

up next... The crowd getting writing behind this. Let's see where we

:48:32.:48:37.

stand. -- right in behind this.

:48:38.:48:43.

China are five points clear at the top.

:48:44.:48:52.

All very tight, and at the moment, China have not claimed the gold

:48:53.:49:02.

medal. It is all to play for. I don't know what to suggest. Get on

:49:03.:49:09.

the edge of your seats. This is going to be mega close... And gold

:49:10.:49:19.

is not... Well... Some strange noises! Don't go and make a cup of

:49:20.:49:24.

tea. Stay where you are. We've had word that Rio 2016 could make an

:49:25.:49:29.

official statement about the pool. So everyone here is tight-lipped, we

:49:30.:49:34.

will wait and see why it is going super green. It has certainly got

:49:35.:49:39.

our attention as we move into the final round. Round five of five...

:49:40.:49:45.

It is a dive that five pairs will be doing. The USA, neither of them are

:49:46.:49:52.

really in the mix, but they finish with a back 2.5 with 1.5 twist pro

:49:53.:49:57.

Mac. The Americans have made a run for the finish line too late. --

:49:58.:50:04.

twists. It's left this pairing slightly out of the running. This is

:50:05.:50:08.

a top-notch effort on their final round dies, you will see many of the

:50:09.:50:13.

girls performing best and choosing the twist element here. 1.5 twists,

:50:14.:50:21.

2.5 somersaults. Too little, too late. No medals for the USA in this

:50:22.:50:30.

contest. They are a pair in transition, working through, HP and

:50:31.:50:36.

put together recently, -- they have been put together recently.

:50:37.:50:39.

This is the mark to beat for everyone else, as we move on. That

:50:40.:50:46.

dive will be replicated by China, Malaysia and North Korea and Canada.

:50:47.:50:52.

Mexico, Brazil and Great Britain are doing some things slightly

:50:53.:50:56.

different. In the case of the Mexicans, it is an inward 3.5

:50:57.:51:03.

somersault with tuck at the moment. They are two, three, two. Not likely

:51:04.:51:13.

to figure. Because of the partially dropped round for dive. Agreed, our

:51:14.:51:23.

silver medallists from 2012. They will not be. Therefore the

:51:24.:51:28.

Olympics but it is looking like no medal to match what she did four

:51:29.:51:35.

years ago. They will want to finish off with the inward 3.5 to the best

:51:36.:51:41.

of their ability. See how far up the standings they can get after this...

:51:42.:51:47.

A good finish. But too many points to make up.

:51:48.:51:52.

20 of the plank, fighting for the medals. A dive like that you

:51:53.:51:58.

finished... That than average but it would have needed to be world

:51:59.:52:02.

beating to get anywhere back in contention.

:52:03.:52:09.

They would be towards the bottom end of the pack but they are in the

:52:10.:52:13.

Olympic final. Nothing to be taken away from the pairs out here today.

:52:14.:52:20.

This pair will not be on the podium. It is past the 300 mark with that,

:52:21.:52:27.

getting confirmation now... 72 exactly for Paola Espinosa and

:52:28.:52:31.

Alejandra Orozco. They will have a lead for a few moments here. That is

:52:32.:52:39.

where they finish now. Usurping the USA by a little, no medal today. The

:52:40.:52:48.

crowd is getting ready to applaud, we are applauding and hoping that

:52:49.:52:53.

the judges will be kind and behave Fabia Blake to the Brazilian pair --

:52:54.:52:59.

favourably. It is a big dive for them, a 3.2,

:53:00.:53:04.

that went OK. In round three, they could finish.

:53:05.:53:12.

It's Ingrid Oliveira and Giovanna Pedroso, we would like to see you

:53:13.:53:23.

then get close to the 300 mark. It is definitely passable! It is

:53:24.:53:26.

probably their favourites dive, and that is why they've left it to the

:53:27.:53:31.

end, that is often what happens in synchronised diving, or diving in

:53:32.:53:36.

general, leave your potentially best died until last. The Brazilian pair

:53:37.:53:41.

finish in style, -- dies. It is a mixed bag, it will be 7.5s.

:53:42.:53:52.

The crowd will probably be booing. The girls have done a great job

:53:53.:53:57.

today, not as far behind as some would have predicted. The men did

:53:58.:54:01.

likewise, a good effort by the men's ten metre. A good effort from Ingrid

:54:02.:54:08.

Oliveira and Giovanna Pedroso, they will probably be bottom of the

:54:09.:54:12.

standings but not too far adrift. The gloves come off, China,

:54:13.:54:17.

Malaysia, North Korea, Canada and Great Britain are all slogging it

:54:18.:54:21.

out for these medals. And they are all doing same tariff dives. At 3.2.

:54:22.:54:32.

Chen Ruo Lin and Liu Hui Xia now, it is cliche but true. They throw down

:54:33.:54:37.

a gauntlet as they can do it dives and get big marks that everyone else

:54:38.:54:44.

has to follow suit. -- big dives. Absolutely faultless! I will go out

:54:45.:54:48.

on a limb and say... That is a gold medal for China. There are often

:54:49.:54:54.

questioned saying, can you put pressure on these athletes, will

:54:55.:55:00.

they falter? The answer? No. On this occasion, and faltering,

:55:01.:55:05.

unflappable, a whiz popper of a dive, to finish for the Chinese

:55:06.:55:09.

pairing. This is going to put gold out of reach, I'm sure of it. I have

:55:10.:55:17.

no idea what he's talking about either... It is Roald Dahl's

:55:18.:55:23.

language! There we go, pick up the marks for us! 354 is where they end

:55:24.:55:37.

up, and lessening extraordinary happens, it is gold for China. Let's

:55:38.:55:43.

see what happens with silver and bronze, the next four teams,

:55:44.:55:47.

including our girls who go last, are very much in the mix. Separated by

:55:48.:55:51.

six points. That is where they are.

:55:52.:55:55.

Malaysia, North Korea, Canada and Great Britain are separated by six

:55:56.:56:00.

points. The same dive for Malaysia, North Korea and Canada, and Tonia

:56:01.:56:06.

Couch and Lois Toulson opt for a different dive. It is as tense as

:56:07.:56:11.

the men's yesterday, the boys did a great job diving last. Tonya and

:56:12.:56:16.

Lois are there as well. We have more teams in the mix here. More teams

:56:17.:56:22.

capable of getting medals than we had yesterday. Even tighter still.

:56:23.:56:32.

As we move onto the Malaysia side, they hold onto second place after

:56:33.:56:39.

round four, back 2.5. This is their version... It is tremendous, isn't

:56:40.:56:46.

it? Not quite as good as the Chinese. They are home and dry now.

:56:47.:56:54.

This is their Middle Drive, will it be enough? Malaysia now have a

:56:55.:57:02.

nervous wait -- middle dive. Slightly out of time, a little

:57:03.:57:06.

splash thrown up hurt it is still a huge dies. -- dive. Into the green

:57:07.:57:16.

abyss they go, as they surface now, the scoreboard flickers to life at

:57:17.:57:20.

some stage and we will reveal whether the score is more than 80

:57:21.:57:25.

points. If it does, it is a heck of a marker.

:57:26.:57:30.

That's the answer, they go 344. They move into second place. Now we

:57:31.:57:35.

get the old calculator out to work out who did what... It will take a

:57:36.:57:40.

lot to overtake Malaysia at this stage but it is possible with marks

:57:41.:57:44.

available to North Korea, Great Britain and Canada. They are

:57:45.:57:49.

separated by only six points from the last round.

:57:50.:57:53.

Celebrations go on in the Malaysia camp, perhaps premature, but could

:57:54.:58:03.

be anticipating nobody is doing it as consistently as they are.

:58:04.:58:07.

Regardless of the outcome, their performance has been outstanding.

:58:08.:58:11.

Now, North Korea. Here come the two Kims. How can they do? Nines would

:58:12.:58:21.

put them in second... She folded! The diver furthest from us, Kim,

:58:22.:58:27.

faulted. That means that the North Koreans will not catch China. They

:58:28.:58:33.

will not catch Malaysia. It opens the door for Canada and Great

:58:34.:58:38.

Britain. Came closest to us thrills her dive... And her partner has an

:58:39.:58:51.

unfortunate wobble. -- Kim. We are having a real delay on the scores...

:58:52.:58:56.

It's worth the wait, let's wait and see. Execution marks one, two, and

:58:57.:59:05.

three will be super low. North Korea are out of it. They've

:59:06.:59:10.

gone. They are in third place now. That will be overtaken surely by

:59:11.:59:15.

Great Britain or Canada. Working on the base that China are away,

:59:16.:59:19.

Malaysia might have secured second and not confirmed yet that there is

:59:20.:59:24.

a bronze medal up for grabs for Great Britain or Canada. And there

:59:25.:59:29.

is one point separating Great Britain from Canada... 256 versus

:59:30.:59:38.

255, it is a dead start. This is Canadas effort. 2.5 somersaults and

:59:39.:59:40.

two -- 1.5 twists.

:59:41.:59:53.

They need 9.5s for Canada, we will see this in the competition.

:59:54.:59:59.

Our Canada heading for third place in the final? -- our Canada? My

:00:00.:00:07.

word, it is an exceptional dive from the experienced pair from Canada.

:00:08.:00:13.

What a dies to finish on! World-class. -- dive. Holding form,

:00:14.:00:20.

it could prove to be the dive that secures them the medal. They will be

:00:21.:00:25.

close to Malaysia, they had a little gap to close. They are going to get

:00:26.:00:32.

nines, all over nines on that. That might have put the medals out of

:00:33.:00:37.

reach for the British pairing of Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson to

:00:38.:00:41.

come. An agonising wait to see what happens. It is a huge score and

:00:42.:00:45.

confirmation on your screens in a moment.

:00:46.:00:58.

It is very tight. We can pretty much what it out. A does it. A does it

:00:59.:01:06.

for Great Britain to get third place. -- 82. Inward 3.5 somersaults

:01:07.:01:20.

and the tuck position. This needs to be the best ever from Tonia Couch

:01:21.:01:25.

Lois Toulson. What a dream versus. They have to believe deeply. This is

:01:26.:01:31.

what you have done all the hard work far. It comes down to this dive in

:01:32.:01:37.

the Olympic final. Manage your state. Let us do this. Take your

:01:38.:01:47.

time and do it right. 82 gets in the bronze medal to match the men in the

:01:48.:01:49.

tens metre. It is good but that is not good

:01:50.:02:11.

enough. The Canadians know that they have won the medal. It is going to

:02:12.:02:17.

be agonisingly close just outside. What a shame for our ladies. They

:02:18.:02:20.

put everything into it and it was not good enough on the day. Inward

:02:21.:02:27.

3.5 in the tuck position. Just rolling into the water. What an

:02:28.:02:33.

absolute shame. The synchronisation was good but not good enough for the

:02:34.:02:38.

medal today. Well done. Valiant effort. The marks are going up the

:02:39.:02:50.

code are getting excited. Ultimately, he moved down below

:02:51.:02:56.

North Korea. That is because of the execution marks on the left.

:02:57.:03:08.

We will wait for confirmation on your screen. China have won the Gold

:03:09.:03:19.

Medal. Not by a huge margin. Malaysia were already celebrating

:03:20.:03:30.

before the new Chen Ruo Lin and Liu Hui Xia are the winners of the

:03:31.:03:33.

women's synchronised ten-metre platform. The Canadians have moved

:03:34.:03:45.

into a medal place. It is not surprisingly Chinese have done it.

:03:46.:03:49.

Only ten points in the end between and Malaysia. They have been pushed

:03:50.:03:55.

in some of the women's events during the course of the week. I am sure we

:03:56.:04:02.

will give you the tabulated scores at the end. It is China, Malaysia

:04:03.:04:08.

and Canada. Great Britain finishing in fifth place. And in the end, 17

:04:09.:04:17.

points away from a medal. Not to be fought Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson

:04:18.:04:18.

today. Disappointing for both of them. We

:04:19.:04:28.

were hoping they would take the bronze medal and we are trying to

:04:29.:04:32.

get to the bottom of that agreement swimming pool as well. Most people

:04:33.:04:36.

thinking it may be algae or some sort of Brazilian colours. We've got

:04:37.:04:43.

to take you to some more live sport. Over on BBC One at the moment, there

:04:44.:04:48.

is live gymnastics for you. Great Britain are in within a shout of the

:04:49.:04:52.

medal in the women's team gymnastics. The men finished in

:04:53.:04:56.

fourth yesterday. That is on BBC One. We were showing you Johann

:04:57.:05:03.

contact earlier on and she is still playing against the plan Kuznetsova.

:05:04.:05:08.

That is on the Red Button. -- Jo Konta. It is the deciding set and

:05:09.:05:17.

she is 6-5 up. If you want to see the conclusion of that you can go to

:05:18.:05:21.

the Red Button. We're taking you to live Rugby sevens as promised. This

:05:22.:05:26.

is the group that Great Britain R.N. And it is very strong with New

:05:27.:05:32.

Zealand Japan and Kenya. Great Britain defeated Kenya earlier on.

:05:33.:05:35.

And there was a huge upset with New Zealand lost to Japan. We will take

:05:36.:05:42.

you now to Great Britain's game against Japan in the Deodoro

:05:43.:05:46.

Stadium. We will bring you right up to date. Two tries early on for

:05:47.:05:51.

James Rodwell. He has been impressive. Going the full length of

:05:52.:05:52.

the pitch. He is England's most capped sevens

:05:53.:06:06.

player in the squad at the moment. And if that was a good start, he

:06:07.:06:10.

went over again. The second try of the game. We have brought you up to

:06:11.:06:17.

date. Let us take a live commentary. This is happening at the moment at

:06:18.:06:22.

the Deodoro Stadium. Great Britain of 14-0 over Japan who beat Japan.

:06:23.:06:30.

COMMENTATOR: Great Britain got off to a flying start, two tries from

:06:31.:06:37.

James Rodwell means the lead 14-0. They were having not just a sticky

:06:38.:06:46.

patch but Japan back the game. Japan are asking if you questions. More

:06:47.:06:54.

than asking if you questions. Japan are right back in this. They went

:06:55.:07:06.

for the power play. Team GB will be disappointed with that. That is a

:07:07.:07:12.

try by Lomano Lemeki. He came in unopposed. It is the speed of the

:07:13.:07:21.

recycling of the ball. Just reminding all the viewers, this is

:07:22.:07:26.

the Japanese team that stunned that the rugby world by defeating New

:07:27.:07:33.

Zealand 14-12. This is a very good Japanese team. Until that last play,

:07:34.:07:39.

Team GB had coped with it comfortably. They have picked out

:07:40.:07:55.

Tom Mitchell. Phil Burgess goes on and it is a penalty against Japan.

:07:56.:08:02.

Phil Burgess fought about taking it quickly. Play will go on. Mitchell

:08:03.:08:15.

organises everything. It is almost in the identical position of the

:08:16.:08:21.

earlier tried. The referee from New Zealand tells them to hurry up. It

:08:22.:08:26.

comes to Dan Bibby and then And out of play and that is the end

:08:27.:08:39.

of the first-half. It is tight enough but Britain with advantage.

:08:40.:08:47.

Great Britain 14-7 Japan. Seven minutes was very quickly in that

:08:48.:08:52.

game. I am looking at Dan Norton, the flyer for Great Britain. I do

:08:53.:08:57.

not think he has touched the ball. It is Lauren Baillie/ James Rodwell

:08:58.:09:01.

and James Davis been very impressive. Japan had a very good

:09:02.:09:05.

side. They have the own way of playing and deeply a lot narrower

:09:06.:09:08.

than the British boys and it is just as effective.

:09:09.:09:19.

Japan, like the other smaller teams, are coming into the game and putting

:09:20.:09:26.

the markdown. The scheme should suit the way that the Japanese set up. --

:09:27.:09:33.

this scheme. This is the first score, Dan Bibby involved. He could

:09:34.:09:36.

sit back and watch James Rodwell go the length of the field. He could

:09:37.:09:42.

slow down at the end. This was the second try. James Davies, the

:09:43.:09:46.

Welshman. He sets it up for what well. He is overhauled by Kazuhiro

:09:47.:09:54.

Goya but he gets there. The response by Japan. Lomano Lemeki scores and

:09:55.:10:11.

it is 14-7 at half-time. One of the great sights of rugby was seeing

:10:12.:10:16.

them out playing the Kiwis. You can see why the scheme sits them, it is

:10:17.:10:21.

very simple and they have got lots of technique. These governments

:10:22.:10:24.

quickly and they move the ball quickly. They are a threat. -- the

:10:25.:10:33.

scrum moves quickly. It is important for Great Britain that Mitchell

:10:34.:10:38.

nails this cat. He will be trying to find the space. -- nails this click.

:10:39.:10:45.

Mark Bennett, the Scotsman has not touched the ball or Dan Norton, the

:10:46.:10:56.

flyer. What is to come? This gives James Rodwell the chance to get up

:10:57.:10:58.

but he cannot win it. It is not a penalty, there was not

:10:59.:11:40.

an offside but there was a knock-on so Japan get the penalty. James

:11:41.:11:49.

Rodwell gets to his feet and the Japanese felt he was offside. He was

:11:50.:11:56.

OK so he played the ball. Watch out quickly this ball comes out of the

:11:57.:12:02.

scrum. They have got some size in the three forwards but it will be

:12:03.:12:09.

in, out and away. Do you look -- Kazuhiro Goya will feed the scrum.

:12:10.:12:20.

In and out quickly. The speed is fantastic. Good tackling. Mark

:12:21.:12:32.

Bennett with that tackle. It is now a numbers game. Japan with an extra

:12:33.:12:35.

player. It is a penalty for Great Britain.

:12:36.:12:57.

James Davis was the key man. He absolutely stop that. Hats off to

:12:58.:13:03.

the Welshman. He is a Scarlets player. He stopped the ball and got

:13:04.:13:08.

great body position. Great Britain needed that as Japan are coming back

:13:09.:13:11.

into the game. They could do with scoring. And now the substitution

:13:12.:13:21.

starter Great Britain. On comes Mark Robertson of Scotland. It is Tom

:13:22.:13:26.

Mitchell that is going off. James Davies is coming off. Mitchell is

:13:27.:13:35.

staying on, he is throwing the ball in. He has just gone to the

:13:36.:13:36.

line-out. That was a knock-on. That was really

:13:37.:13:51.

sloppy from Great Britain. They had been really good up until now. They

:13:52.:13:56.

are going through a quiet patch. They handed the possession right

:13:57.:14:01.

back to Japan. The Japanese get the feed. Samuel Cross of Wales comes on

:14:02.:14:17.

to replace James Rodwell. Surely coy and is on at scrum-half for Japan.

:14:18.:14:19.

He is a good player. The ball is out of play. It is just

:14:20.:14:36.

a line-out. Samuel Cross was to take it quickly. Why can't he? It is

:14:37.:14:43.

because it is a Japan ball, that's why. What a tackle by Bennett. That

:14:44.:14:53.

is astonishing. What a brilliant tackle by Bennett. He saves his

:14:54.:14:59.

team. Great Britain will want to get this ball out of this danger area.

:15:00.:15:12.

Japan have kept it in the field. It has gone loose and Dan Bibby picks

:15:13.:15:19.

it up. Penalty against Great Britain. Dan Bibby has lost it. And

:15:20.:15:28.

Katsuyuki Sakai has scored for Japan. We will be all square.

:15:29.:15:41.

Sakai, the possession turned over, and with the conversion to come, we

:15:42.:15:48.

should be 14-14, two .5 minutes to go.

:15:49.:15:55.

Japan are so clinical in contact, they are the one team with contact,

:15:56.:15:59.

they recycle so quickly, Team GB tried to stop them and give away the

:16:00.:16:04.

penalty. That was close. Team GB just cruising, it is 14-14, Japan,

:16:05.:16:13.

they beat New Zealand this morning, and are looking at another major

:16:14.:16:15.

scalp. Team GB really had to focus. This

:16:16.:16:23.

kick-off is key. Marcus Watson comes on as irreplaceable at.

:16:24.:16:30.

Tom Mitchell takes it. -- comes up on as a

:16:31.:16:34.

replacement. Sam Cross gets out of trouble well.

:16:35.:16:46.

If it stays in field, it will be interesting... It is just out. That

:16:47.:16:51.

was the right option from Mitchell, it had to stay. Norton, one of the

:16:52.:16:56.

flies in the tournament, just resting out. Giving Japan the feed,

:16:57.:17:01.

they have the ball. Just over one minute ago. A big line-out, we need

:17:02.:17:08.

Sam Cross to disrupt the Japanese line-out. Toyoshima to throw, you

:17:09.:17:18.

can have drawers in the pools stages. It all goes to sudden

:17:19.:17:23.

death... Phil Burgess sweeps onto the ball.

:17:24.:17:33.

Go on, Marcus Watson, he's through! He should have the gas to get them

:17:34.:17:41.

back. Half a minute ago, and Marcus Watson puts Great Britain back in

:17:42.:17:43.

the lead. -- to go.

:17:44.:17:49.

Marcus Watson, the brother of Anthony, the England star, showing

:17:50.:18:01.

real pace and power. Team GB needed that, I have to say

:18:02.:18:05.

that Team GB have looked really good but hats off to Japan.

:18:06.:18:10.

They have caused an upset this morning, but well done Team GB, they

:18:11.:18:16.

kept their head and did not panic. Mitchell puts it over. Even though

:18:17.:18:20.

the hooter has gone, as the try was scored within 30 seconds, there will

:18:21.:18:25.

be a restart. It means Britain can't lose but Japan can still get the

:18:26.:18:29.

draw. What they do with this, tactically,

:18:30.:18:34.

it will be interesting to see if they kick the ball long or where

:18:35.:18:37.

Mitchell puts it. It may go along, and put the

:18:38.:18:41.

chasing. They could get the ball down their half and see if Japan go

:18:42.:18:46.

the length of the field to score. Going toward Sam Cross on the far

:18:47.:18:50.

side... It does. Sam Cross, chases and gets a hand to

:18:51.:18:58.

it. Straight out, it is a free kick for Japan.

:18:59.:19:01.

I have to say I'm really surprised he just kicked the ball on, get it

:19:02.:19:06.

downfield. Team GB defence has been pretty good so far, but what you

:19:07.:19:12.

have got is a talented Japanese team with a free ball on the line.

:19:13.:19:17.

One scored two tie the game, it's a big moment. Team GB need to win this

:19:18.:19:22.

group. Six players have been at defensive line. Tom Mitchell, the

:19:23.:19:29.

sweeper behind. Japan with their set piece. Lomano Lemeki is a real

:19:30.:19:40.

handful, one of the try scorers. Sakai is still going... Japan are

:19:41.:19:54.

through. Toyoshima... And now, Soejima, penalty advantage to Japan

:19:55.:20:00.

played. This goes into overtime. It is a high tackle. Against Dan

:20:01.:20:14.

Norton. This is why we love sevens, it's nail-biting stuff, everyone is

:20:15.:20:21.

on their feet. They hoof to the ball downfield, rather than resetting.

:20:22.:20:34.

It is wide, and it's a good tackle on. Bibby holds... It's going to be

:20:35.:20:40.

a try, they have to keep him out wide. It's a try for Lomano Lemeki.

:20:41.:20:47.

It will all hang on the conversions. Do Great Britain win or will it be a

:20:48.:20:58.

draw? Lomano Lemeki had the off-load, and the tackle. The

:20:59.:21:01.

Japanese team is world-class. What a moment! This team has beaten New

:21:02.:21:08.

Zealand. We have one kick now, for the Japanese team to draw. With Team

:21:09.:21:12.

GB. He misses it, and Great Britain

:21:13.:21:27.

squeezed through against Japan. Japan beat New Zealand, they have

:21:28.:21:33.

been beaten by Team GB, 21-19. What a thriller! I hope you enjoyed

:21:34.:21:39.

that, the standard of rugby sevens in this tournament has been

:21:40.:21:45.

fantastic. From all of the teams. The less fashionable tyres, Japan,

:21:46.:21:49.

Number ten, they've been wonderful. Great Britain 21- 19 Japan.

:21:50.:21:58.

DAN: What an unbelievable game to kick off our rugby sevens action on

:21:59.:22:03.

BBC for tonight. More rugby sevens in ten minutes time, we will be back

:22:04.:22:07.

to watch New Zealand two loss to Japan earlier today, they will be

:22:08.:22:09.

playing Kenya. We always thought the rugby sevens

:22:10.:22:13.

would be great at this Olympic Games.

:22:14.:22:16.

With the women's in the first few days, now the men's, it has not

:22:17.:22:19.

disappointed. It day four of the wonderful Rio

:22:20.:22:22.

Olympics, another beautiful night down here at Copacabana beach.

:22:23.:22:28.

We will wander out there later. Hopefully do more live fishing, we

:22:29.:22:32.

missed it last night, it was too windy.

:22:33.:22:35.

But there is so much going on, we will bring you the headlines from

:22:36.:22:42.

day four of the brioche games. -- the Rio Olympics. About 30

:22:43.:22:46.

minutes ago, an agonising fit place for Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson in

:22:47.:22:51.

the ten metre synchronised women's diving.

:22:52.:22:53.

China took gold once again, fit place for Team GB. We will hear from

:22:54.:22:58.

them in a moment. -- fifth place. A huge win for

:22:59.:23:02.

Johanna Konta in tennis, she came from one set down to beat her

:23:03.:23:05.

opponent. Look how much it meant to her, into

:23:06.:23:09.

the quarterfinals where she will play some stones or Angelique

:23:10.:23:12.

Kerber, one of the Wimbledon finalist from this year.

:23:13.:23:16.

Andy Murray made it three in the men's singles earlier.

:23:17.:23:21.

In rowing, Katherine Grainger remains on course to win a fifth

:23:22.:23:25.

Olympic medal, her and Vicky Thornley but their spot in the

:23:26.:23:29.

double sculls final today. -- booked. In boxing, not good news

:23:30.:23:33.

for joke and -- Joe Cordina, key loss to his

:23:34.:23:38.

backers -- he lost to his Uzbekistan

:23:39.:23:47.

opponent. And for the first time since 1996,

:23:48.:23:53.

Atalanta, written with failed to win a team eventing medal, they finished

:23:54.:23:57.

in fifth, France took gold. Their first of the Rio Olympics. --

:23:58.:24:05.

Britain have failed. On BBC One, the conclusion of the

:24:06.:24:10.

women's team gymnastics. Amazing skills on display.

:24:11.:24:15.

Simone Biles of team USA, the favourite to win individual gold,

:24:16.:24:19.

she is part of the USA team leading the way at the moment. Team GB in

:24:20.:24:24.

with a shout of getting a medal. That is on BBC One at the moment.

:24:25.:24:29.

He and BBC Four, hockey later on. We saw Johanna Konta this afternoon.

:24:30.:24:34.

We had live diving, we are back at the rugby in a moment, in terms of

:24:35.:24:38.

the diving, with Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson finishing fifth, right

:24:39.:24:46.

up until their final dive. They spoke to Nick Hope.

:24:47.:24:57.

Tonia, a high-quality performance. We been diving together eight

:24:58.:25:02.

months, that was the most enjoyable competition I've ever been in. I

:25:03.:25:05.

really enjoyed it and Lois was fantastic today. This is your first

:25:06.:25:10.

Olympics, she said you haven't been together very long, to perform like

:25:11.:25:14.

that and get scores like that is impressive? Yes, it's only been

:25:15.:25:18.

eight months. To even be here is amazing. And especially to have done

:25:19.:25:25.

my first Olympics with Tonia, it's been really fun and I've enjoyed it.

:25:26.:25:29.

On top, you've been studying and doing your GCSEs as well as training

:25:30.:25:34.

for the Olympics? Yes, I just finished my GCSEs and when I get

:25:35.:25:39.

back I will get my results. I have forgotten about them for now and I'm

:25:40.:25:42.

concentrating on diving. We have to ask you about the colour of the

:25:43.:25:46.

water, a law of people have been talking about the green. We noticed

:25:47.:25:48.

it was green in training but by the time we got out

:25:49.:26:04.

and came back again, we were at ten metres and we could not believe how

:26:05.:26:07.

green it was, it does not matter. I thought it was easier to spot. We

:26:08.:26:10.

did well and got a personal best, perhaps we should ask for green

:26:11.:26:12.

water! You have the individual competition to come, you are looking

:26:13.:26:14.

for a medal, hopefully? It will be tough for a medal, I don't worry

:26:15.:26:17.

about it, today I said to Lois, it's your first completion, who cares

:26:18.:26:19.

about the medal? The people getting medals have been together over 11

:26:20.:26:24.

years. I will dive well, fingers crossed. I had an amazing time today

:26:25.:26:31.

and I loved every minute. Well done. Wonderful to see some smiling as

:26:32.:26:35.

well. One of the big talking points throughout the diving final was the

:26:36.:26:38.

colour of people. Social media went mad, you may have

:26:39.:26:43.

seen when Daniel Goodfellow and Tom Daley were diving yesterday, it was

:26:44.:26:47.

a perfect blue, now it is green, cucumber green!

:26:48.:26:53.

A lot of explanations, still waiting for Rio 2016 to come out with an

:26:54.:26:58.

official statement. I've had a swimming pool attendant who got in

:26:59.:27:03.

contact with us on social media, he said it's a chlorine issue, but it

:27:04.:27:07.

will be interesting to see what Rio 2016 save.

:27:08.:27:09.

We will get to the bottom of it during this evening.

:27:10.:27:14.

Let's show you another pool, rugby sevens pool seam. And an updated

:27:15.:27:20.

table, this is what it looks like. Great Britain have squeezed past

:27:21.:27:26.

Japan by 21-19. They missed their final conversion, Great Britain

:27:27.:27:35.

topping the pool, Japan beat New Zealand earlier.

:27:36.:27:40.

They take on Kinnear. It's the Kiwis, the All Blacks, playing the

:27:41.:27:47.

Kenyans. Clive Woodward and Eddie Butler.

:27:48.:27:53.

COMMENTATOR: We are recovering after the upset of Japan beating New

:27:54.:27:57.

Zealand this morning. It sent a shiver around the stadium and

:27:58.:28:01.

generated a war that has not been heard since Japan beat South Africa

:28:02.:28:07.

in the Rugby World Cup -- roar. Kenya with a chance against New

:28:08.:28:12.

Zealand. If it had not been a draw against Great Britain and Japan...

:28:13.:28:17.

New Zealand would have been staring at the possibility of finishing

:28:18.:28:22.

third in the group? All I can say is I never saw so many quiet Kiwis!

:28:23.:28:27.

They are all shell-shocked from this morning.

:28:28.:28:30.

But, well deserved. It's interesting, the team have some big

:28:31.:28:34.

names but they are lacking the out and out gas that the big sides have.

:28:35.:28:39.

It showed against Japan this morning. Unfortunately the big news

:28:40.:28:44.

is Sonny Bill Williams is out of the tournament due to injury. With an

:28:45.:28:47.

Achilles tendon injury. The big name in the New Zealand team is out.

:28:48.:28:56.

These are the officials, they've been very influential, there have

:28:57.:29:00.

been a lot of yellow cards, penalties at the breakdown, there is

:29:01.:29:06.

no question of any criticism, but they are under instructions to do

:29:07.:29:09.

certain things, and the players know it.

:29:10.:29:13.

My only criticism is at the breakdown, where we've had quite HQ

:29:14.:29:17.

yellow cards for deliberate knock-on 's and high tackles, -- quite a few.

:29:18.:29:25.

Not one yellow card for consistent infringement.

:29:26.:29:34.

The ballplayer, number four, is DJ Forbes for New Zealand, the old

:29:35.:29:39.

captain. He has come back, he made himself available for this, the

:29:40.:29:43.

Olympics. He looked out of sorts this morning, and he's not in the

:29:44.:29:48.

starting line-up. He is a legendary figure in Kiwi sevens. But he's not

:29:49.:29:53.

in the team. New Zealand have reshuffled after the morning upset.

:29:54.:30:08.

The brothers, Rieko Ioane and Akira Ioane, they both start. D J Forbes

:30:09.:30:16.

is a wonderful player and no surprise he does not start. There

:30:17.:30:22.

could be some fireworks in the scheme with both club rebel sides --

:30:23.:30:26.

with both sides having lost in the opening round. Kenya made a slight

:30:27.:30:35.

mess of that. This is Kenya!. They will drive at you and seek contact.

:30:36.:30:39.

They will also go wide. Great off-load to Collins. What an

:30:40.:31:04.

amazing sight, the man on the screen. He is the speedster, Collins

:31:05.:31:18.

Injera. They tried to play in Britain very physically this

:31:19.:31:23.

morning. This afternoon, against New Zealand, they are showing they have

:31:24.:31:31.

got some real peace. Biko Adema for the extra two points. He just

:31:32.:31:38.

misses. It stays at five. It is one of the great sights. As

:31:39.:32:02.

long as you're not a New Zealander. Biko Adema with the restart.

:32:03.:32:09.

Willy Ambaka comes up for that. It is a penalty. For Kenya. That was

:32:10.:32:25.

the tackle are not releasing the ball quick enough. The referees have

:32:26.:32:37.

been a very strict on this. They will put the ball down the field and

:32:38.:32:47.

play for the line-out. There is real pace about this team that you need

:32:48.:32:54.

to win the gold medal. Into the line-out goes Scott Curry and Tim

:32:55.:33:05.

Mikkelson. And Sam Dickson. It is Scott Curry who wins it, he is the

:33:06.:33:06.

captain of this squad. It should be there on the blindside

:33:07.:33:33.

for Scott Curry. We will have to have a look at it. The Kenyans have

:33:34.:33:39.

really upped their physicality. When Mike Friday went there, he got

:33:40.:33:46.

toughness. The referee is from Argentina and that is not a try. If

:33:47.:33:51.

you look at the high tackle again, they have been stripped about the

:33:52.:33:55.

high tackles. It is definitely not a try. You can see his right arm, is

:33:56.:34:09.

that a legal tackle? We have seen it before and it will be a penalty try.

:34:10.:34:16.

It is a dangerous tackle more than a high tackle. Because Scott Curry is

:34:17.:34:21.

going global, it was the fact the tackle was around his neck. We are

:34:22.:34:30.

playing the laws of rugby here. I think that is quite a tough call.

:34:31.:34:34.

Perhaps Peter lies him but it was not a yellow card. And I did not

:34:35.:34:39.

think it was a penalty try. It is not the first time that it happened

:34:40.:34:45.

today. The Argentinian player was said and for the same thing.

:34:46.:34:48.

Australia with the penalty try to take the lead. The restart is such a

:34:49.:35:02.

key part of rugby sevens. Willy Ambaka catches under pressure from

:35:03.:35:11.

Sam Dickson. It has gone loose. It was scrambled but he found touch. It

:35:12.:35:16.

hands at the bandage to New Zealand and it is quickly taken by Sam

:35:17.:35:28.

Dickson. It is going to be Akira Ioane. At is a soft try. It is a

:35:29.:35:34.

scrappy episode for Kenya. New Zealand are hotting them. You can

:35:35.:35:39.

see the red shirts of Kenya, they all thought he was in the line-out.

:35:40.:35:45.

There was no. In this young man. They have some wonderful athletes.

:35:46.:35:50.

The brothers, Akira Ioane and mackerel one, they are some of the

:35:51.:35:54.

best. New Zealand are relieved after the shock of this morning. -- Rieko

:35:55.:36:04.

Ioane. They had the quick line-out when the Kenyans felt it was a

:36:05.:36:09.

traditional line-out. That is why sevens in such a great game, there

:36:10.:36:13.

is so much happening you cannot just stop. The ball was in and out play

:36:14.:36:21.

quickly. Augustine Pulu as the two points. That was good work by Sam

:36:22.:36:31.

Dickson. He stopped the ball going straight out which would be a free

:36:32.:36:38.

kick for Kenya. There have been a few of those that have went straight

:36:39.:36:41.

out and you have given the ball straight back to the opposition.

:36:42.:36:54.

Good play. Great feet, great feet. By Billy Odhiambo.

:36:55.:37:10.

Willy Ambaka cannot quite keep the ball in play. 45 seconds left in

:37:11.:37:19.

this opening period. New Zealand have the full. Willy Ambaka is the

:37:20.:37:28.

real talent on the window for Kenya. -- out wide. The referee will not

:37:29.:37:38.

allow them to delay for too long. The throw is going to come. It is

:37:39.:37:46.

taken by Scott Curry. New Zealand March the ball forward.

:37:47.:37:56.

The chase is going to be won by Rieko Ioane. It was a little knock

:37:57.:38:06.

forward. Those are the kicks I like, you kick it in play and it is a real

:38:07.:38:10.

fruit trees. If you have your players on the chart when you kick

:38:11.:38:14.

it, there is every reason that you can get and that you can get to it

:38:15.:38:18.

first. Rieko Ioane will be disappointed. They have got pace, I

:38:19.:38:31.

am talking about Dan Norton. And Peggy Baker for the United States

:38:32.:38:33.

when you have got really quick players.

:38:34.:38:46.

It is a penalty and we will play on even though we are into overtime.

:38:47.:39:10.

New Zealand when the penalty. We still do not have half-time.

:39:11.:39:24.

It was not ten, still replay on. Night is falling at the Deodoro

:39:25.:39:32.

Stadium. That was a strange decision. I am not sure what he was

:39:33.:39:41.

trying to do. Very not like New Zealand. They are usually very

:39:42.:39:44.

clever when they see what is happening but that was a kick to

:39:45.:40:04.

nothing. This is Tim Mikkelson. Was Rieko Ioane out of play? The ball

:40:05.:40:09.

has gone backwards and New Zealand try to put pressure on from Sam

:40:10.:40:11.

Dickson out of the breakdown. Kenya say we need a break. We are

:40:12.:40:25.

trailing but only 14-5. Let us gather again. The right tactics by

:40:26.:40:37.

Kenya. There is a time when you have to say, start again, get to

:40:38.:40:42.

half-time and put the ball out. New Zealand are much improved from this

:40:43.:40:47.

morning against Japan. Kenya showing real gas. I really like Collins

:40:48.:40:57.

Injera. He is a wonderful player. They can get outside this New

:40:58.:41:00.

Zealand team which they have done on a couple of occasions and have

:41:01.:41:02.

scored one fantastic try. Kenya are coached by Ben Cruise from

:41:03.:41:17.

South Africa. This is Collins Injera, heading for try number one.

:41:18.:41:22.

And in the day of upsets, did that mark the start of another? Briefly,

:41:23.:41:29.

it dead. Sam Dickson on the charge. Scott Curry taken around the neck.

:41:30.:41:35.

And Collins Injera went into the sin-bin. New Zealand went ahead by

:41:36.:41:42.

two points at that point. And then taking the lead, a second converted

:41:43.:41:44.

try, 14-5. Gordon is the new Deal and has been

:41:45.:42:03.

around for two decades. He has been coaching the new music -- the New

:42:04.:42:12.

Zealand team for lots of years. The New Zealand sevens programme, they

:42:13.:42:17.

have produced 44 All Blacks through the programme. They use it in a

:42:18.:42:21.

different way that we do back home. They use it as a breeding ground for

:42:22.:42:25.

some of the great players. What a for players including Jolyon Palmer.

:42:26.:42:40.

--Jonah lomu. There is a change at half-time. There is the chance to

:42:41.:42:51.

get the replacement of taste of early action. It has gone out and

:42:52.:42:56.

the space not covered by New Zealand. Most teams come with 12

:42:57.:43:00.

players in your squad and the happy couple of travelling reserves. It is

:43:01.:43:09.

terrible on Sonny Bill Williams. That's why you have to have back-up

:43:10.:43:14.

players. In the hope that somebody gets injured.

:43:15.:43:29.

Scott Curry wins the award. New Zealand will take some territory.

:43:30.:43:41.

They will look downfield with Augustine Pulu. Very well played by

:43:42.:43:51.

Collins Injera, keeping the ball in play. That was a strange one. New

:43:52.:44:00.

Zealand are happy with that. They now have the line-out throw.

:44:01.:44:07.

Normally, the line-out drills of these players are all very good. You

:44:08.:44:12.

will expect New Zealand to win this ball from here. They have got Rieko

:44:13.:44:20.

Ioane --Jonah lomu. -- Akira Ioane out in the backs division.

:44:21.:44:42.

Penalty against Kenya. Certainly the best side we have seen today is

:44:43.:44:56.

South Africa. Great Britain are a close second. It is just the power

:44:57.:45:01.

of the forwards. When I see the New Zealand forwards, you could see then

:45:02.:45:07.

Sam Dickson taking the ball, it was not with the same ferocity that we

:45:08.:45:10.

have seen of some of the other forwards.

:45:11.:45:18.

And it should be Akira Ioane who scores yet again? Did he lose

:45:19.:45:26.

control of the ball? He doesn't seem to be too convinced.

:45:27.:45:36.

He is going to have a look. Over to you, Clive. He reached the score for

:45:37.:45:46.

this position. Not yet, he has not scored yet. Not yet, hand under the

:45:47.:45:52.

ball. Elbow. No! I do not think it is a try. He

:45:53.:46:14.

has dropped dead. Really well done to 20 macro.

:46:15.:46:25.

-- Emonyi Collins Injera. You really cannot give that. Great decision. He

:46:26.:46:38.

has given New Zealand the put in. Blackball, no knock on.

:46:39.:46:49.

Replacements for Kenya and New Zealand prepare for the scrummage.

:46:50.:46:59.

12 macro is coming on for New Zealand. -- DJ Forbes.

:47:00.:47:14.

13 macro troops off, disgusted with himself for not scoring -- 29-macro.

:47:15.:47:28.

-- -- 29-macro. -- 13 macro. -- Oscar Ouma?. The Mistry almost

:47:29.:47:56.

sums up their days. They have been OK but not quite on the money. You

:47:57.:48:01.

do not see the real cynical side of this New Zealand team. It has been a

:48:02.:48:09.

worrying day for them, headed a losing to Japan this morning. They

:48:10.:48:14.

are not getting it all their own way against a very physical union team

:48:15.:48:24.

this evening. 31-macro adds the two points, 21-5. -- Augustine Pulu.

:48:25.:48:34.

There is something out of kilter with New Zealand and Kenya have a

:48:35.:48:38.

real chance to make them pay for that gift. They need a good team

:48:39.:48:44.

meeting. We have all had these days. They need to put out a system and

:48:45.:48:49.

come backfiring. One thing about New Zealand, they will come out firing.

:48:50.:49:02.

Quick blast. Off come Kenya again. Now then, here is one to chase. A

:49:03.:49:12.

bit long. A second bite at it for Kenya. A little bit inexperienced,

:49:13.:49:20.

the Kenyans player there. You have to kick it knowing you can get it

:49:21.:49:30.

back and he had no chance. This time New Zealand when the penalty. The

:49:31.:49:39.

ancient New Zealand tradition of competing like theory at the break

:49:40.:49:48.

down. -- like fury. On for them comes Gillies Kaka. Gillies Kaka

:49:49.:49:58.

started this morning against Japan. He will be pleased to at least get a

:49:59.:50:05.

minute and a half under his held, to get that game out of the system. --

:50:06.:50:13.

under his belt. Big match tomorrow, New Zealand are going to come

:50:14.:50:20.

through today with a lost one, won one record, tomorrow they play Great

:50:21.:50:26.

Britain. Nothing should cause too many sleepless nights for Team GB,

:50:27.:50:29.

they were very impressive in their first game against Kenya and they

:50:30.:50:35.

had their moments against Japan, they will look forward to playing

:50:36.:50:38.

New Zealand, I ain't they will think they can have a real go. -- I think

:50:39.:50:48.

they will think. Possession won, Kaka. Superb tackle in the end by

:50:49.:51:06.

Oscar. You feel that the Kenyans feel comfortable when the New

:51:07.:51:11.

Zealand team is coming out. No one in the team can take it. A lot of

:51:12.:51:16.

power, but he does not have the searing pace. So far the Kenyans

:51:17.:51:24.

have handled them pretty well. New Zealand with this line-out, 25

:51:25.:51:31.

seconds to go. The game is safe for them. They will have had better days

:51:32.:51:44.

on the circuit than this. They will come back. That makes them even more

:51:45.:51:50.

dangerous that they have not hit their straps today. It comes down to

:51:51.:52:03.

Kaka. Scott Curry loops around Rieko Ioane. DJ Forbes. Another penalty

:52:04.:52:17.

and Vantage being played. That was always going to be there --

:52:18.:52:25.

advantage. Let us see if they can put on one of their set plays and do

:52:26.:52:34.

something really special. Kaka, sizes up the options. Get a move on,

:52:35.:52:49.

this is the Olympic Games. Ioane. The sheer strength of Rieko Ioane.

:52:50.:52:57.

Superb defending. Ioane. Penalty to Kenya. Very strange set play from

:52:58.:53:06.

New Zealand. There was just nothing happening from it and Kenya comes a

:53:07.:53:12.

little bit easier. A little break-out, August ain't. This is

:53:13.:53:18.

Samuel. -- Augustine Pulu. We have seen

:53:19.:53:32.

countless times, DJ Forbes cannot quite find Lewis Ormonde. There is

:53:33.:53:43.

an overlap. Gillies Kaka does not need it. The last act of this game

:53:44.:53:50.

is to hand the scoring pass. To Lewis Ormonde. Well done Kaka, he is

:53:51.:53:57.

one of the stars. He had a bad game this morning, but he is a class

:53:58.:54:04.

player and that will do his that is a world of good. New Zealand do with

:54:05.:54:13.

they do well -- confidence. There we go. Just wonderful. It is amazing

:54:14.:54:17.

when you carry the ball in two hands what you can do. He gives it to

:54:18.:54:29.

Lewis Ormonde to set down. 28-5, New Zealand have beating Kenya. --

:54:30.:54:33.

beaten. The favourites have finally got a

:54:34.:54:43.

win. What a wonderful opening day of men's rugby sevens. Let us show you

:54:44.:54:52.

how it affects things. Big thank you to Stephen Jackson, here's a BBC for

:54:53.:55:02.

viewer and he says why have you got GD instead of GP. New Zealand are up

:55:03.:55:11.

to second. Japan are third and Kenya just losing and are down in fourth

:55:12.:55:16.

with two points. There is a bit of music, we will tell you what it is

:55:17.:55:20.

going on in a moment, and after Team GB managed to get the better of

:55:21.:55:23.

Kenya and Japan today, John and Adele spoke to one of the guys who

:55:24.:55:36.

scored two tries -- John Inver Dale. We will talk about your tries in the

:55:37.:55:39.

second, how nerve-wracking was the end? We thought we had won it when

:55:40.:55:47.

Marcus scored. The referee made the call for the kick-off. Japan showed

:55:48.:55:51.

in the first game what a team they are. They play with confidence. I

:55:52.:55:56.

was pleased that the boys stuck together. They forced them out wide,

:55:57.:56:00.

the conversion was under pressure. Two tries from you, 14-0, is there a

:56:01.:56:09.

danger that you take your foot off the pedal? I do not think so. A

:56:10.:56:16.

missed tackle there, the game can change. We started with a bang and

:56:17.:56:21.

it gave us confidence. We tried a few things that did not come off. As

:56:22.:56:28.

a scratch team, are you finding almost with every play your getting

:56:29.:56:33.

more accustomed to everyone else? We came together ten weeks ago. Most of

:56:34.:56:39.

these teams have been playing together for four years. We are

:56:40.:56:44.

looking to ills the team. Because new Zealand last, the Spaniards gave

:56:45.:56:52.

Australia a huge run for their money, is the growth of the game

:56:53.:56:56.

making it more equal and you cannot take any game for granted? You

:56:57.:57:01.

cannot take any game for granted, it is so competitive. Six different

:57:02.:57:07.

winners in ten tournaments, it makes the game so exciting. We are giving

:57:08.:57:12.

the global audience something to cheer. Good luck. Thank you. A very

:57:13.:57:19.

happy James Rodwell. He talked about inspiration and the fact they have

:57:20.:57:23.

been fighting and so many times you talk to Olympians and they say what

:57:24.:57:28.

the preparation has been like, their one chance to shine on a global

:57:29.:57:32.

stage and maybe go home with a medal, it is all about getting

:57:33.:57:37.

inspired and hopefully this will do a bit of that for you. Get Inspired

the button over to you, get up, Get Inspired and get active. So

:58:12.:58:16.

important, I do not know if you were watching Adam Peaty but he said in

:58:17.:58:20.

2012 when he was watching the London games he saw an old school friend of

:58:21.:58:25.

his competing and that kick-started him to knuckle down and get started

:58:26.:58:30.

and look what he has done. He won a gold medal. We will be back at the

:58:31.:58:35.

rugby sevens for Fiji against Argentina. From our base, we showed

:58:36.:58:40.

you this side, plenty of the beach, I want to tell you what this music

:58:41.:58:49.

is about. This avenue runs the full four kilometres of the beach and let

:58:50.:58:55.

me introduce you to these people. They were freestylers who came from

:58:56.:59:00.

Colombia. They brought their own music. Over to you, give us a minute

:59:01.:59:03.

of magic. Skills! This is Andreas on the ball, it is

:59:04.:59:39.

on his toe. Full marks for that. It is lovely. That is some serious

:59:40.:59:51.

Colombian head skills right there, everyone. We are getting quite a

:59:52.:59:58.

crowd. Give them a round of applause, brilliant stuff.

:59:59.:00:00.

Gentlemen, thank you for that, well worth waiting for. It is day four of

:00:01.:00:08.

the Olympics, from our base, high

:00:09.:00:10.
