applause, brilliant stuff. Gentlemen, thank you for that, well | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
worth waiting for. It is day four of the Olympics, from our base, high | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
time that we brought you the headlines. | :00:10. | :00:16. | |
Agonising fifth place for Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson in the ten | :00:17. | :00:23. | |

sculls final in the rowing today. Not such good news for Joe Godinet | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
whose challenge is over in the lightweight boxing as it finished in | :01:00. | :01:11. | |
the last 16 -- Joe Cordina. And it was also pretty dismal for the | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
equestrian team, the first time since 1996 in Atlanta they have | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
failed to win a medal in the team eventing as France took the gold. We | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
can show you what is happening on BBC One the moment. We will find out | :01:26. | :01:35. | |
what is going on because it is the women's team gymnastics at the | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
moment. Team GB have a real shout of a medal and if you want to watch | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
that, it is on BBC One. All you can stay with us on BBC Four. This is | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
what is happening in the next few hours. We will have some hockey, | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
Team GB are in action. We have more sevens coming up at 10:30pm with | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
Fiji against Argentina, Fiji looking for the first ever Olympic medal. | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
And at midnight we will have an update on all of the sailing. So | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
many of the sailors in with a real chance of a medal. Let's bring you | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
up-to-date with the hockey and show you what is happening in Great | :02:20. | :02:29. | |
Britain's group. A reminder, not too good so far, no wins in the | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
competition, one draw and one defeat. They are taking on Brazil | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
who are the only team below them. As we will bring you that shortly but | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
as we said earlier, in terms of getting inspired, we heard it from | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
James Rodwell when it came to the rugby, and from so many athletes in | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
the Olympics, it is four long years to make sure that when you come to | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
Rio, you are in the best possible position. Hockey is no different. | :02:56. | :03:29. | |
It has just gone 10pm at home, we can bring new commentary from Great | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
Britain against Brazil. We will have that rugby sevens in about half an | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
hour but we will pick up on this with Simon Mason and Matt Chilton. | :03:41. | :03:47. | |
A difficult start for great Wotan -- for Great Britain against Brazil who | :03:48. | :03:55. | |
are yet to score in the tournament but they have a penalty corner after | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
less than four minutes of the match. Great Britain camped out ready to | :04:01. | :04:08. | |
defend. Stephane Vehrle-Smith could be the one to watch, the number | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
nine. It is tucked inside and they score! What a start for the host | :04:16. | :04:26. | |
nation! It went to a right-hand castle, no surprise, he knows what | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
George Pinner can do because he plays for the same club team in | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
Great Britain. I did not think he would get it round him but it was a | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
long drag and as we said, there would be a cheer if Brazil opened | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
the scoring and they have. Stefan Bradl Smith nailed it for Brazil, | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
their first goal of the Olympics. What a start, 1-0 to Brazil. It | :04:53. | :05:02. | |
could be a pretty tournament to say the least for the men in red and | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
white. They lost heavily against Belgium. 4-1, and only managed up | :05:09. | :05:17. | |
point against New Zealand -- a point. And they are now behind | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
against outright underdogs Brazil. At the end of the game against | :05:25. | :05:32. | |
Belgium when Brazil got taken apart, 12-0, some of their players were in | :05:33. | :05:42. | |
tears. Now that goal gives them a bit of confidence that they can | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
achieve something in the tournament. Read Britain with a couple of early | :05:48. | :05:56. | |
chances. Now Ashley Jackson who looks to re-establish a bit of calm. | :05:57. | :06:05. | |
Henry Weir. The British boys not used to getting booed every time | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
they get stick on ball. They were played in front of some crowd that | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
don't want to cheer them before. Great experienced performers but it | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
is not often you go somewhere and get booed from minute one! That is | :06:22. | :06:28. | |
the Brazilian way. I went to watch them play basketball against Belarus | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
in the women's tournament earlier and the hostility to the opposition | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
players was extreme. Gleghorne has got separated from his midfield. He | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
was still out, maybe couldn't hear the call from behind him. Great | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
Britain leading man high, I am not sure Gleghorne can separate the play | :06:51. | :06:58. | |
on his own. Ashley Jackson picks it up. And he finds Henry Weir on the | :06:59. | :07:05. | |
right. He has got it under control now. On his way forward. He looks | :07:06. | :07:13. | |
back and find Iain Lewers who sweeps it left. Now back to Jackson. | :07:14. | :07:22. | |
Jackson at the centre back position at this stage. Number nine for Great | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
Britain is Harry Martin. Jackson again. Four British men in the | :07:28. | :07:40. | |
circle waiting for some service. I'm not sure white Jackson is this far | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
back, he is one of the best elimination midfielders in the game. | :07:45. | :07:58. | |
-- I'm not sure why. Simon Mantell was brought into the site because | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
Alastair Brogdon broke a finger and he has been forced to withdraw but | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
replaced by Simon Mantell who is vastly experienced and could add | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
some then upfront. -- venom upfront. Jackson. Great Britain have to put | :08:14. | :08:34. | |
people between the Brazilian lines. If you imagine defence and midfield | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
and attacking Lance, you put yourself in between them so the path | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
beat the defensive line. You don't have to dribble it through. Jackson | :08:45. | :08:55. | |
takes it on and find his captain. Now | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
-- now Michael Hoare. That is behind. Have Brazil got the | :09:00. | :09:12. | |
conditioning to cope with yet another tough, physical game. | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
Belgium were outstanding with their patients, they held the ball for | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
long periods in the first quarter. -- patience. They were looking for a | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
shooting opportunity and that is a good save but that is a goal for | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
Great Britain. Adam Dixon finishes it. The first shot was not the | :09:33. | :09:39. | |
cleanest strike. The goalkeeper got a foot on it but it popped out to | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
Dixon. One touch, add to the edge of the circle, Middleton does not | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
connect well, Dixon get enough under it and get the face of the stick | :09:53. | :09:54. | |
open. In for the equaliser. 1-1. Seven minutes of the first | :09:55. | :10:10. | |
period to play. Lovely little fake inside by | :10:11. | :10:33. | |
Maarten, he showed the ball down the line, opened up his body and tucked | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
inside as the defender committed to reverse stick. | :10:37. | :10:52. | |
Brazil threatening again. Great Britain forced to tidy up and press | :10:53. | :11:03. | |
forward once more. It is a bold and confident full-court press, quite | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
happy to step up which is brilliant to see, a team like them who could | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
quite happily sit back at half court and simply play damage limitation. | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
For them to get out and play in front of their home crowd is a great | :11:18. | :11:24. | |
opportunity for them and a showcase. The first goal for Brazil, the first | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
goal of their tournament coming from Stephane Val Smith and then the | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
equaliser from Adam Dixon to make it 1-1 -- Stephane Val Smith -- | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
Stephane Vehrle-Smith. Jackson. Michael Hoare. Martin. He | :11:40. | :11:58. | |
leaves it for Middleton shows good speed to the edge of the circle, | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
flicks it forward and Mantell had a jab at it but could not get any | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
purchase and Brazil are defending pretty solidly in the opening stages | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
here. That is harsh on Vehrle-Smith, I thought he had won the | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
obstruction. Great bit of skill. But not given. Into the circle once | :12:21. | :12:29. | |
more. Martin. To the baseline and a shot and it is wide. Iain Lewers has | :12:30. | :12:36. | |
got a delightful eye for the ball. We have seen some impressive | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
clearances and this just pops back. First-time half volley, that does | :12:42. | :12:43. | |
not miss by much. David Ames tangling with Lucas | :12:44. | :13:04. | |
Paixao. 23 for Brazil, Chris McPherson. Henry Weir. Maybe a touch | :13:05. | :13:15. | |
too much. Great Britain remain in possession with men forward. | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
Middleton them inside the circle, might go for the reverse and he | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
scores! A comfortable goal, Barry Middleton find the back of the net | :13:26. | :13:31. | |
and Great Britain are leading 2-1. Faustino has been exceptional, the | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
Brazilian goalkeeper but he was caught on his heels. His body weight | :13:37. | :13:42. | |
is backwards, it has got under way to his -- underneath his right | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
glove. He got a bit too close and he shied away as Middleton has crashed | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
it in. I think Faustino will be disappointed. He has made some | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
outstanding saves in this tournament. And the captain, Barry | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
Middleton, gets a rest for his troubles. 2-1. Aerial ball and that | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
will be harmless. Great Britain still have to play | :14:09. | :14:27. | |
Australia and Spain, two of the big, form sides, two of their biggest | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
challenges lying ahead. This on paper should be comfortable and it | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
is beginning to look more comfortable now with the 2-1 lead. | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
Possibilities to extend that. David Ames passes it to his left and Great | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
Britain have possession and the free hit. Ian Sloan in the circle. | :14:46. | :14:58. | |
Across the face and up and away. Better structure from Great Britain, | :14:59. | :15:07. | |
moments ago the suggestion was that they were going a bit one on one, | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
trying to eliminate through midfield when there was so much space down | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
the flanks, particularly when they can drive through one side and come | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
back into the other corner, they will find the baseline spaces | :15:21. | :15:21. | |
easily. Daniel Fox, click forward for | :15:22. | :15:35. | |
Nicholas Catlin. Find David Condon. That is behind. Last couple of | :15:36. | :15:44. | |
minutes of the quarter. Encouraging start for the Brazilian coach and | :15:45. | :15:45. | |
his team. Adam Dixon, puts it all the way back | :15:46. | :15:59. | |
for Ian Luers who switches it, Daniel Fox involved. Flick inside. | :16:00. | :16:13. | |
Henry Wear skids to a stop. Not enough pace on the ball for Sam | :16:14. | :16:20. | |
Ward. It feels like Great Britain are holding. The difficulty is | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
because you do not have a huge amount of opposition, the physical | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
intensity drops and they need to continue to make sure, they only | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
have four men in the back, forcing the forwards high to stretch the | :16:34. | :16:44. | |
resilience. Nice touch and turn, still the pressure continues. Some | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
Ward. Leave that for Nicholas Catlin. -- Sam Ward. All the way | :16:49. | :16:57. | |
back for Henry Weir. Daniel Fox again. Ashley Jackson, outstretched | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
and unable to connect. Last minute of the quarter. What an interesting | :17:05. | :17:14. | |
start, Great Britain a goal behind in the first three or four minutes | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
and then they struck back first of all with Adam Dixon and then Barry | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
Middleton to put Great Britain 2-1 in front and they have a chance of | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
adding to that, Ashley Jackson find his flow. Finds Nicholas Catlin, now | :17:28. | :17:38. | |
Jackson takes it back. Fox, diagonal ball. Ten seconds until the Guta. | :17:39. | :17:47. | |
The end of the first quarter. Henry Weir is driven into the circle. The | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
Brazilians should put this clear and safe before the Guta. There it is, | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
good first period of play. Score after the first 15 minutes at the | :18:00. | :18:10. | |
Diadoro, it is 2-1 to Great Britain. Strains first quarter, almost as if | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
Great Britain were a little complacent but they soon got a | :18:16. | :18:22. | |
wake-up call. -- strange. Michael Holt was punished for our lack of | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
discipline. Even a team like Rozelle, if you give them a set | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
piece chance, it is something you can practice and deliver up to | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
standard, they may not have the practice time in terms of technical | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
ability but they can certainly deliver -- Brazil. | :18:41. | :18:56. | |
Some of the highlights here. These were the early opportunities. David | :18:57. | :19:05. | |
Condon should have opened the scoring. Then Brazil had a chance, a | :19:06. | :19:13. | |
great spin to get around Daniel Fox. Very little that George Pinner can | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
do. Great Britain do come back into it, about was the first ever goal | :19:20. | :19:26. | |
for Brazil in Olympic hockey and one to savour, greater penalty corner | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
and then Great Britain striker that. Adam Dixon getting the equaliser -- | :19:31. | :19:38. | |
strike back. This was Barry Middleton's individual goal. Firing | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
that into the top corner to put Great Britain 2-1 in front. Foisting | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
oh disappointed. -- Faustino. Brazil in bright green | :19:49. | :20:09. | |
too much the borders of the pitch. Left to right. -- to match. Barry | :20:10. | :20:24. | |
Middleton. This is Patrick. He is doing a lot of running here. He has | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
got himself a free hit, six for Brazil. There are number five. | :20:31. | :20:39. | |
Lopez. A bit of ball juggling. Trying to get around Michael Hall. | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
The suggestion to me from the early running intensity of Great Britain | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
is that their coach has given them a bit of a rocket, the whole thing was | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
probably 10% lower than he would have liked. There was no real | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
intensity consistently through the first 15 minutes. Aerial ball, cut | :21:00. | :21:11. | |
out by the Brazilian defenders. The Brazilian number seven. Middleton. | :21:12. | :21:22. | |
Patrick was hoping to get a break but Jackson pushes it towards the | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
circle and it is cleared away. Brazil get a free hit. Precision | :21:27. | :21:36. | |
lacking from Great Britain, the ball into David Condon was accurate and | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
powerful from Jackson. The Brazilians are close enough to get | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
that stick in and knock the ball away. | :21:49. | :22:00. | |
Great Britain once again pushing forward. Push forward, the | :22:01. | :22:07. | |
goalkeeper called into action for a second time, appeals for a penalty | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
corner but none is forthcoming. Great ball from Iain Lewers, touched | :22:12. | :22:17. | |
well from Sam Ward to the goalkeeper. The suggestion is that | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
David Condon played it high into the Brazilian defender. Suggesting that | :22:24. | :22:33. | |
it was going away on goal. -- from goal. Smith, the goal-scorer for | :22:34. | :22:40. | |
Brazil, running out of room. Henry Weir, Ashley Jackson. Harry Martin | :22:41. | :22:48. | |
making a run up front, might find him eventually but they have gone | :22:49. | :22:53. | |
back for the moment to Iain Lewers. He has his eye on an individual | :22:54. | :22:58. | |
excursion forwards. That was high to the stick of Henry Weir. Free hit to | :22:59. | :23:10. | |
Great Britain. Nicholas Catlin. Jackson to Iain Lewers. Little push | :23:11. | :23:17. | |
over the top I Daniel Fox and they have lost out again. Feeling that | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
Daniel Fox's little left was high. That is a wasted pass from Patrick. | :23:23. | :23:43. | |
Robbie Crutchley pacing in front of the great writ in Dublin -- dugout. | :23:44. | :23:50. | |
The Brazilian supporters encouraged by what they have seen so far, the | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
first ever Brazilian goal in Olympic hockey. Here is Ashley Jackson. | :23:55. | :24:04. | |
Michael Hoare, nice interplay between the two, Nicholas Catlin is | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
looking for it, the flick towards was not that but he got high net. To | :24:09. | :24:16. | |
open up another front, Great Britain. Daniel Fox. I would be | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
critical of Great Britain in the circle, there is a lot of the Thames | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
at first-time into place and it feels a little bit clever, with the | :24:26. | :24:28. | |
Brazilian lack of experience, secure possession in the circle. They will | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
be panicking about position and therefore you will get hit and take | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
corners. Across from Daniel Fox is cut out and Brazil escape. -- | :24:39. | :24:50. | |
across. Ian Sloan. Dangerous looking cross from Ian Sloan. | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
As it comes across, great off the right, the goalkeeper got in front | :24:56. | :25:04. | |
of Henry Weir and he just got a top edge, was on the right place and | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
that is what Great Britain have to do, come it to the forward attacks, | :25:08. | :25:14. | |
Faustino has to police that area in front of his goal. | :25:15. | :25:22. | |
As Rozelle head to halfway with under ten minutes until half-time. | :25:23. | :25:33. | |
-- Brazil. Back they go to read group and rebuild. -- regroup. | :25:34. | :25:50. | |
Sometimes the ball bobbles up on the pitch and makes the trap at high | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
speed doubly difficult. Jackson. It is concerning for Great Britain that | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
the ball can get that far. Great Britain back in the Brazil circle. | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
Ball is out of play and Brazil will come away with possession. Simon | :26:08. | :26:13. | |
Mantell, newly promoted to the full squad having been a reserve they | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
are. Brought in following the injury to Alistair. | :26:20. | :26:32. | |
Middleton gets a nice little flick on and gets off-balance but manages | :26:33. | :26:39. | |
to stay upright and get into the circle. Nicholas Catlin. Michael | :26:40. | :26:49. | |
Hoare. David Ames. Sharp and quick passing at the moment from the | :26:50. | :26:54. | |
British players, Michael Hoare again, nowhere to go but backwards. | :26:55. | :27:00. | |
Iain Lewers needs to hold the forward position or that release | :27:01. | :27:05. | |
forces Great Britain too far away from the Brazilian goal. Five red | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
shirts in the Brazilian circle but the Brazilians get away with the | :27:11. | :27:17. | |
ball. Gleghorn is brought down and that is a penalty corner for Great | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
Britain. All of his own making, a delightful little touch to knock the | :27:22. | :27:26. | |
ball away. It is an agricultural tackle. Gleghorn was hacked down, | :27:27. | :27:35. | |
Great Britain discussing their options for this penalty corner. And | :27:36. | :27:51. | |
without Jackson, you have Simon Mantell and Gleghorne. Gleghorne. | :27:52. | :28:01. | |
Simon Mantell. Over the top. Gleghorne not really getting the | :28:02. | :28:08. | |
sort of directional quality he wanted. It went and out of danger. | :28:09. | :28:14. | |
It is not far over, but surely you have to get shots on goal, hit the | :28:15. | :28:19. | |
goalkeeper, pick up second phase, keep the ball alive in the circle | :28:20. | :28:22. | |
and no these players want to score, they want to make their mark, but | :28:23. | :28:32. | |
missing the target. Michael Hoare whack it defending. -- back | :28:33. | :28:47. | |
defending. Iain Lewers. Now they have gone left. Back with Iain | :28:48. | :29:00. | |
Lewers. Is normally in charge of the injections of the penalty corners. | :29:01. | :29:05. | |
Bouncing ball to the far side, trapped by Daniel Fox, fix it on, | :29:06. | :29:11. | |
nice turning from Nicholas Catlin, sweeping cross in, snuffed out in | :29:12. | :29:17. | |
the Brazilian defence. They seem to be pretty alert tonight. They are | :29:18. | :29:22. | |
doing well, managing to hold their shape, not committing that many | :29:23. | :29:28. | |
people to the front line, two or three at times. Great Britain need | :29:29. | :29:33. | |
to recognise that. Great Britain still had five in the back division, | :29:34. | :29:37. | |
if they look at the numbers, they have to count it, keep one extra and | :29:38. | :29:41. | |
throw everyone else passed the defensive front line. | :29:42. | :29:50. | |
Another Great Britain attack led by Simon Mantell who is bundled over. | :29:51. | :30:00. | |
There is another penalty corner for Great Britain. Unfortunately as the | :30:01. | :30:06. | |
ball was carried forward, Harry Martin gets taken out. Standing up, | :30:07. | :30:11. | |
into the running line of Harry Martin. He felt the full force of | :30:12. | :30:21. | |
two Brazilians, one on either side. Simon Mantell and Gleghorne again. | :30:22. | :30:33. | |
206 caps, and it is Gleghorne again. It is saved. And Brazil breakaway. A | :30:34. | :30:45. | |
crescendo of noise as they power down. McPherson, into the circle. | :30:46. | :30:54. | |
Dangerous moments for Great Britain. Dan Fox tidying up. That was a full | :30:55. | :31:03. | |
sprint from both teams. Like one put it on goal and the second phase did | :31:04. | :31:09. | |
not fall kindly. But that rebound position does give you a second | :31:10. | :31:18. | |
opportunity. The Brazilian team feeding off the enthusiasm of the | :31:19. | :31:21. | |
crowd here, probably the biggest we have seen in the tournament so far. | :31:22. | :31:27. | |
There are still a couple of thousand empty seats at list. Martin to | :31:28. | :31:37. | |
Ashley Jackson who is back on now. Iain Lewers. That is out. Barry | :31:38. | :31:48. | |
Middleton could not keep it in. Still not a problem for Great | :31:49. | :31:52. | |
Britain right now, they have a relatively comfortable lead but | :31:53. | :31:56. | |
those tiny percentages, the possession starts to elude them. | :31:57. | :32:00. | |
They could be worried later in the game. | :32:01. | :32:19. | |
Fox, Martin. Harry Martin hoping to put this across the goal. A swing | :32:20. | :32:35. | |
and a miss. Penalty corner. Foot in front of Faustino's goal. Martin | :32:36. | :32:42. | |
flicks it across the space. The defender was unable to get his feet | :32:43. | :32:51. | |
out of the way on the back post. Ashley Jackson was absent for the | :32:52. | :32:55. | |
previous two penalty corners but he is back on the field of play now. | :32:56. | :33:01. | |
Sam Ward alongside, you would expect Jackson to have a go at this. | :33:02. | :33:06. | |
Penalty corner for Great Britain as they lead 2-1. Jackson is poised. | :33:07. | :33:17. | |
Here we go. Jackson. Scores! Great Britain 3-1 in front. The penalty | :33:18. | :33:24. | |
corner expert back on the field and he makes it pay immediately. The | :33:25. | :33:29. | |
little double step move from Jackson meant that Faustino could not read | :33:30. | :33:35. | |
the ball early. The double whip, you could see as he carried it in, | :33:36. | :33:39. | |
accelerate and release down to the right hand of the goalkeeper with | :33:40. | :33:45. | |
the post man unable to get anywhere near it. They cannot touch it away | :33:46. | :33:57. | |
from danger. STUDIO: Just to let you know, we were promising you Fiji | :33:58. | :34:02. | |
against Argentina but as you can see, this game has taken on some | :34:03. | :34:07. | |
extra significance for Team GB so if you want to watch Fiji against | :34:08. | :34:10. | |
Argentina, it is available now live on the Red Button or what you can | :34:11. | :34:18. | |
watch it on the website or the BBC sport app. At half-time in this game | :34:19. | :34:22. | |
we will bring you the best of the action from that final game in the | :34:23. | :34:25. | |
rugby today and we will have action from USA against Brazil later as | :34:26. | :34:32. | |
well. But now we will return to Great Britain and Brazil with Great | :34:33. | :34:40. | |
Britain leading 3-1. COMMENTATOR: And Great Britain in a strong | :34:41. | :34:45. | |
position, attacking the Brazilian goal with less than three minutes | :34:46. | :34:51. | |
until half-time. Somehow the umpire has seen which stick that has come | :34:52. | :34:55. | |
off. Middleton takes it to the circle. | :34:56. | :35:05. | |
Great Britain appear to have set them selves that tactical objective | :35:06. | :35:11. | |
of getting white and into the zone within four or five metres of the | :35:12. | :35:16. | |
baseline and get it across the keeper -- getting wide. I am sure we | :35:17. | :35:27. | |
will see more of this. Turn and go for Catlin but the ball was just a | :35:28. | :35:31. | |
little too far in front but now Jackson takes it up on his own. He | :35:32. | :35:36. | |
had David Condon to his right but could not find him. Good defence | :35:37. | :35:38. | |
from Brazil. Great backhand from Ashley Jackson. | :35:39. | :35:52. | |
He cut income onto his left foot, he tried it at Faustino, a great | :35:53. | :35:58. | |
leading edge shot from Jackson but Faustino got his legs together. | :35:59. | :36:09. | |
Lewers. Harry Martin, forcing his way into the circle and by our line | :36:10. | :36:21. | |
up to have a go and they have a penalty corner. -- they are lining | :36:22. | :36:29. | |
up. Jackson is still on the field. It was Vehrle-Smith again. It | :36:30. | :36:40. | |
wobbles of a top edge onto his knee. The penalty corner formation | :36:41. | :36:45. | |
forming. Iain Lewers has trotted out to get ready to inject, Jackson will | :36:46. | :36:51. | |
suddenly want to have a pop at this having scored last time. -- | :36:52. | :36:56. | |
certainly. Harry Martin is not too far away. Sam Ward is also just | :36:57. | :37:03. | |
behind the three who are patrolling the circle. Here we go. Jackson | :37:04. | :37:11. | |
again. Charged down. What a great bit of defensive running from | :37:12. | :37:16. | |
Patrick van der Heijden. The attack continues. Trying to slide it past | :37:17. | :37:23. | |
the keeper, Middleton controlling things. He fires from an impossible | :37:24. | :37:31. | |
angle. But not too far away come a terrific effort from Middleton. The | :37:32. | :37:38. | |
last minute of the half. A brilliant effort from Middleton but even | :37:39. | :37:43. | |
better goalkeeping from Faustino. Lewers goes across the face and | :37:44. | :37:48. | |
Faustino with the big left kicker. He blocked it and got it clear. Spin | :37:49. | :37:56. | |
and shot from Middleton. Faustino knows he is obstructing but he could | :37:57. | :38:00. | |
move his legs and make sure the ball was still in play. Just about 15 | :38:01. | :38:12. | |
seconds until half-time. And a really good half of hockey here. And | :38:13. | :38:20. | |
I think that will be the final play of the first half. Brazil have | :38:21. | :38:24. | |
scored their first ever goal in Olympic Hockey Centre but it is | :38:25. | :38:26. | |
Great Britain who lead the way at half-time, 3-1. | :38:27. | :38:34. | |
Thank you, gentlemen, we will be back for the second half of that but | :38:35. | :38:42. | |
we are going to bring you up-to-date with the rugby sevens. We have been | :38:43. | :38:45. | |
following that throughout the day here. The USA were at the top of | :38:46. | :38:52. | |
that group. Fiji are playing Argentina at the moment. We had the | :38:53. | :38:59. | |
action from the other groups earlier involving Team GB, Japan, New | :39:00. | :39:03. | |
Zealand and Kenya. In a moment we will show you what is happening | :39:04. | :39:07. | |
between Fiji and Argentina but this is the action from the game so far. | :39:08. | :39:15. | |
A huge hand holding the ball. He fends off players. Ravouvou hold it | :39:16. | :39:32. | |
up and that is the power of Tuisova. They can run and dance but also | :39:33. | :39:36. | |
thunder through tackles. You are right. When we saw them this morning | :39:37. | :39:43. | |
against Brazil, they were not quite into the game but they were always | :39:44. | :39:49. | |
going to beat Brazil. This is a different Fiji team and you can send | :39:50. | :39:53. | |
the atmosphere and I think this team will be one of the great sight of | :39:54. | :39:57. | |
the Olympics. The way they play the game, what they bring to the | :39:58. | :40:02. | |
Olympics. To be fair, the Argentinians are tough guys and you | :40:03. | :40:07. | |
are right, they will love the breakdowns and want to hit them. | :40:08. | :40:11. | |
Franco Sabato as to consolidate. -- has to. Who can get up with Fernando | :40:12. | :40:27. | |
Luna? Bautista Ezcurra can add it is going to be Franco Sabato to finish | :40:28. | :40:33. | |
it off and we are going to be all square. Fiji conceded two tries to | :40:34. | :40:39. | |
Brazil and now one to Argentina. I really like this Argentinian team, | :40:40. | :40:44. | |
they are no-nonsense. Showing little respect for this Fijian team. Great | :40:45. | :40:52. | |
play, we see Luna, one of the outstanding forward in the | :40:53. | :40:55. | |
competition so far. This was just fantastic. The get it to Ezcurra, | :40:56. | :41:02. | |
into Sabato and what an amazing score. | :41:03. | :41:05. | |
STUDIO: Those were the only tries so far but we can now join it lived | :41:06. | :41:12. | |
with Sir Clive Woodward and Eddie Butler. COMMENTATOR: The first try | :41:13. | :41:19. | |
of the second half? We are going to have a review. | :41:20. | :41:30. | |
The referee does not need to look, the try is scored. We began with an | :41:31. | :41:39. | |
upset this morning when Japan beat New Zealand. Are we going to have | :41:40. | :41:42. | |
one in the last game of the first day? Two very contrasting styles | :41:43. | :41:53. | |
between the Argentinians, really going rude one, very physical | :41:54. | :42:00. | |
towards the Fijian team. The forwards, Luna, Alvarez and Muller, | :42:01. | :42:07. | |
have been magnificent. You saw the direct running with Alvarez scoring | :42:08. | :42:12. | |
under the posts. Santiago Alvarez is the scorer. Wonderful support for | :42:13. | :42:24. | |
the Argentinian team here. Revol. Our hand was put on the ball by | :42:25. | :42:29. | |
Alvarez again and it went forward -- a hand. It was a great restart but | :42:30. | :42:37. | |
he could not take it. It has been one of the most amazing days of | :42:38. | :42:41. | |
rugby I have ever witnessed. We are in for a surprise here because Fiji | :42:42. | :42:47. | |
are the red-hot favourites for the tournament and Argentina, ranked | :42:48. | :42:50. | |
seventh, are giving it to them because they're forward are taking | :42:51. | :42:55. | |
no nonsense from these big Fijians. -- their forwards. One of the 100 | :42:56. | :43:07. | |
off-loads but that is knocked on. That was against Taliga. Tuwai just | :43:08. | :43:20. | |
losing the ball. There have been a few mistakes from Fiji and we only | :43:21. | :43:23. | |
have four minute left. Argentina have been so physical. I cannot | :43:24. | :43:30. | |
speak highly enough of the Argentinian forwards who have been | :43:31. | :43:36. | |
brilliant. Juan Imhoff is on for Argentina, the flying winger who | :43:37. | :43:39. | |
plays his club rugby in Paris. Matias Moroni is on as well. Imhoff | :43:40. | :43:47. | |
is a wonderful player, played for Argentina at the rugby World Cup. | :43:48. | :43:57. | |
Ezcurra with a forward pass and Fiji will have a put in at the scrum. | :43:58. | :44:01. | |
Argentina will be annoyed about that, they had the ball and it was a | :44:02. | :44:09. | |
basic error, running into each other with the ball-carrier giving it away | :44:10. | :44:16. | |
to Fiji. Let's see what Fiji can do because they have been quiet so far | :44:17. | :44:20. | |
in the second half. They come away with it. And here they go, | :44:21. | :44:24. | |
stretching his legs, Vicky and Taliga. Try scored. -- Kitione | :44:25. | :44:34. | |
Taliga. Matias Moroni did his best to get across. | :44:35. | :44:42. | |
It is a difficult conversion, it was important moral need did something | :44:43. | :44:51. | |
if only to keep Taliga out wide. The try is good. Great effort by Moroni. | :44:52. | :45:01. | |
Argentina do not give up. A conversion from the touchline to | :45:02. | :45:02. | |
come. It has been a wonderful day and this | :45:03. | :45:18. | |
game is right up there. Look at the commitment from both players. | :45:19. | :45:23. | |
Wonderful score. CG need about, they have been under the cosh. Argentina | :45:24. | :45:31. | |
is giving it to them. Look at that to level the scores from the | :45:32. | :45:32. | |
touchline. The captain. -- Fiji. You just saw the benefits of a great | :45:33. | :45:51. | |
coach in action. Head down, Mullah gets up well. -- Axel Muller. Here | :45:52. | :45:59. | |
is the switch of play. Matias Moroni. Juan Imhoff. That is a | :46:00. | :46:13. | |
penalty to Fiji and they take it quickly. 24 will have to set that up | :46:14. | :46:24. | |
and Fiji like that. They like it loose -- Kitione Taliga. Fiji are in | :46:25. | :46:44. | |
the lead now. Wonderful try by Fiji. Wonderful defence. Too much pace, | :46:45. | :46:51. | |
too much of loading for this all singing all dancing Fiji team. What | :46:52. | :47:02. | |
a hit, what a pass. Kitione Taliga goes in, a wonderful game, takes two | :47:03. | :47:08. | |
teams to make a game and Argentina have been right in it. Wonderful | :47:09. | :47:13. | |
score. We are seeing the real Fiji now and you can see why they are | :47:14. | :47:21. | |
favourites. He makes the gap seven points. It is this past coming up, | :47:22. | :47:26. | |
one-handed, backhanded. As he is going onto his back, coming down | :47:27. | :47:31. | |
hard, ending only of getting the ball away. It is not of loading, it | :47:32. | :47:39. | |
is passing, all the time. Argentina, back in possession -- off-loading. | :47:40. | :47:51. | |
That is a mistake. Viliame Mata comes away with the ball and | :47:52. | :47:57. | |
suddenly Fiji turning on the power. It has gone Liz and forward, Jasa | :47:58. | :48:05. | |
Veremalua. -- loose. The referee needs to sort this out. | :48:06. | :48:23. | |
Vatemo Ravouvou could be in trouble here. You came in late and I will | :48:24. | :48:32. | |
penalised you. That is a penalty. A word with the captain, penalty to | :48:33. | :48:40. | |
Argentina. There has not been a bad incident today. Wonderful spirit by | :48:41. | :48:46. | |
all the teams. Argentina have got one. The line-out is awarded with | :48:47. | :48:57. | |
half a second to go. That was cutting it fine. They did really | :48:58. | :49:05. | |
well. They realise they would not get the line-out throw. They have | :49:06. | :49:10. | |
got one throw of the dice now to triangular level with Fiji. Axel | :49:11. | :49:20. | |
Muller in the middle. It is him. It comes down safely. 29-macro out in | :49:21. | :49:33. | |
the back. Juan Imhoff has to be involved. That finds German Schulz. | :49:34. | :49:44. | |
Here goes Axel Muller. He cannot get a hand up, has to sling it back, the | :49:45. | :49:49. | |
ball is out of play and the game will be over and Fiji, they do not | :49:50. | :49:54. | |
squeeze through, but it has been tied enough. A great game to end the | :49:55. | :50:01. | |
day here. First day of the men's competition in the rugby sevens, it | :50:02. | :50:08. | |
is 21-14 to Fiji. Argentina went flat out for the line but they could | :50:09. | :50:14. | |
not get there, the reigning world champions came through day one | :50:15. | :50:17. | |
unbeaten but we have had upsets, New Zealand beaten by Japan. Fiji will | :50:18. | :50:21. | |
go into day two unbeaten. It has been so good, the rugby | :50:22. | :50:35. | |
sevens. I hope you are enjoying it. Even though that was the last game | :50:36. | :50:39. | |
of the day, we will show you highlights from USA Brazil but took | :50:40. | :50:44. | |
days earlier. A time for your diary tomorrow. 4:30 p.m., UK time, we | :50:45. | :50:52. | |
will see Team GB take on New Zealand and that was the result of the day, | :50:53. | :50:57. | |
Japan beating New Zealand earlier on on this Tuesday here in Rio. But are | :50:58. | :51:03. | |
enjoying your evening, live sport were you look. We are going to go | :51:04. | :51:08. | |
straight from the rugby sevens to the hockey were earlier we left it | :51:09. | :51:14. | |
at half-time with Team GB leading Brazil by 3-0. Let us rejoin the | :51:15. | :51:19. | |
game. The score remains the same. Simon Mason and Matt Chilton. Barry | :51:20. | :51:29. | |
Middleton, the Great Britain skipper on the bench. Two minute suspension. | :51:30. | :51:36. | |
He will be back shortly. Lively start to the second half. Both | :51:37. | :51:44. | |
goalkeepers in action already in the second half of the match. There is | :51:45. | :51:51. | |
another card here. A card for Nicholas Catlin being given for the | :51:52. | :51:58. | |
cheque. Great Britain are down to nine at the moment. It seemed to be | :51:59. | :52:08. | |
a personal penalty, not 18 penalty. Brazil threatening George Pinner. | :52:09. | :52:13. | |
Forced to come to the rescue of Great Britain. He came to the rescue | :52:14. | :52:19. | |
and Dixon had to pick it from the line behind him. Sam Ward on his way | :52:20. | :52:24. | |
down the right, Brazil are two men over -- over. Rescued again by Sam | :52:25. | :52:37. | |
Ward. Great Britain just need to hold possession. Brazil now are | :52:38. | :52:44. | |
going to pick up a card. A yellow card. That will be five minutes on | :52:45. | :52:59. | |
the sidelines for Imer. Three rapid cards, two for Great Britain and one | :53:00. | :53:05. | |
for Imer from Brazil. He has a five minute suspension. I feel I is a | :53:06. | :53:20. | |
little bit harsh. Daniel Fox to the edge of the circle the little flick. | :53:21. | :53:39. | |
Harry Martin forced to retreat. It will be a Brazilian ball. It is | :53:40. | :53:48. | |
Dixon with a good contact. The top edge goes over the shoulder of | :53:49. | :53:49. | |
George Pinner. Across the face, good goalkeeping | :53:50. | :54:23. | |
again from Faustino. He has been a hero for Brazil. Harry Martin has a | :54:24. | :54:30. | |
shot at goal, a penalty corner for Great Britain. A sustained period of | :54:31. | :54:39. | |
pressure. Rings it in, does not connect particularly well. Gets the | :54:40. | :54:42. | |
stick from the defender into his own chest. Faustino sliding out, all the | :54:43. | :54:52. | |
players in front of him. Ashley Jackson, Mark Gleghorn, two options | :54:53. | :55:03. | |
here for Great Britain. Here we go, penalty corner. It is Jackson. A | :55:04. | :55:08. | |
good save. Another opportunity, Mark Waghorn. It is out of the arena and | :55:09. | :55:15. | |
bounces back on. I went over the highest part of the fence there. The | :55:16. | :55:23. | |
video operators up there were in danger for a moment! | :55:24. | :55:33. | |
Michael Hoare in the centre. Iain Lewers. | :55:34. | :55:54. | |
Jackson to Michael Hoare. Henry Weir. Great Britain need to make two | :55:55. | :56:07. | |
or three lateral passes to find the opening channel. Taken at shoulder | :56:08. | :56:15. | |
height, a real Scrabble going on there. It has found the back of the | :56:16. | :56:20. | |
Nike, a goal for Great Britain. What a mess that was but it is Harry | :56:21. | :56:29. | |
Martin who gets the scorer. An odd finish after scrappy play. I think | :56:30. | :56:33. | |
it was Iain Lewers who drove it into star web. A touch. Top shot to begin | :56:34. | :56:40. | |
with, Middleton gets a smash around the face, a hint of a back stick, we | :56:41. | :56:49. | |
will see here, is it a clean front edge or has Harry Martin hit it with | :56:50. | :56:54. | |
the back of his stick. If that had been video referred, that would have | :56:55. | :56:58. | |
been overturned. It had to have been squeezed in with the back of the | :56:59. | :57:04. | |
stick. Harry Martin will not be denied, no video referral. Lack of | :57:05. | :57:10. | |
experience there. It is for- one to Great Britain and they could add | :57:11. | :57:14. | |
another. Attacking at base once more. -- pace. Four goals for Great | :57:15. | :57:26. | |
Britain, Adam Dixon, Barry Middleton, Ashley Jackson and Harry | :57:27. | :57:27. | |
Martin have all scored. Henry Weir at leading that front | :57:28. | :57:52. | |
line, stepping through from a midfield position, almost creating | :57:53. | :58:00. | |
the British front four. Now as Great Britain dominate, they're able to | :58:01. | :58:07. | |
throw a man forward to create a front four man press. Nice little | :58:08. | :58:13. | |
run, he is held up. Great Britain get possession. Coming away with | :58:14. | :58:23. | |
Iain Lewers. Simon Mantell. Ian Sloan. Saved. Stick and ball is | :58:24. | :58:32. | |
everywhere. Simon Mantell is claiming that he was struck did as | :58:33. | :58:38. | |
the stick comes in front of him. First shot to Faustino, did well to | :58:39. | :58:48. | |
block. Simon Mantell nails it. The umpire felt it was a clean and of | :58:49. | :58:57. | |
compact -- contact. It is getting a little edgy now. Six and a half | :58:58. | :59:09. | |
minutes of the third period to play. Gleghorne team penalised because he | :59:10. | :59:12. | |
did not take the free hit from the right place and made no effort to | :59:13. | :59:16. | |
stop the ball. If Great Britain tried to force it and the umpire | :59:17. | :59:21. | |
decides they do not like the ball is taken from, it will get turned over. | :59:22. | :59:25. | |
They do not need to do it, they just need composure. | :59:26. | :59:43. | |
That is well held up. Little chink and a little turn, coming in slow. | :59:44. | :59:59. | |
He surrenders possession. There was a great pick-up in the circle from a | :00:00. | :00:06. | |
crash ball end. Brazil doing very well to release defenders from | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
marking duties and to step forward to the ball-carrier. They managed to | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
get two defenders to the ball in the circle. | :00:14. | :00:21. | |
David Ames got punished by the umpire, suggesting it hit his body, | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
I'm sure he would not have been smiling that much if it had. | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
Mantell. A little burst of acceleration from a find Catlin. | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
What a save! What outstanding goalkeeping. Great Britain have a | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
penalty corner but you are right, that was incredible from Rodrigo | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
Faustino. Catlin picked it up and drilled it across and Faustino Read | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
it. The ball gets stuck underneath him which is why the corn is given. | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
This is a brilliant bit of instinctive goalkeeping -- the | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
corner. Great body position, high head, left and active. This is the | :01:08. | :01:15. | |
other Brazilian goalkeeper. It is Faustino who has been one of the | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
stars for them so far. Penalty corner, Jackson. No luck. | :01:21. | :01:30. | |
Aerial ball. Brought down and controlled, into the circle, swept | :01:31. | :01:40. | |
back. Catlin looking for a chance to shoot. And Brazil escape once more. | :01:41. | :01:52. | |
Great defensive discipline from David Ames, he ran and ran to get | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
his feet around his opponent, and he let the midfielder run into his | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
stick and he drew the foul. Easy to give away a free hit. Good running. | :02:05. | :02:15. | |
They are lining up. Middleton has a flick, Ward was just behind him. The | :02:16. | :02:24. | |
danger is diverted at the moment from Brazil. Great Britain will now | :02:25. | :02:33. | |
have half an eye on the scoreboard, there will know that there might be | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
issues with goal difference. If they win their last games, that's fine. | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
If result don't go your way, goal difference will come into it so they | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
need to put themselves beyond what New Zealand do later in the | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
tournament. Six teams in each group, four will progress. | :02:52. | :03:03. | |
Brazil working wonders to get out of trouble here. What a bit of skill | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
from Patrick Chenier -- Patrocinio. Another scramble in the circle. It | :03:09. | :03:27. | |
doesn't matter what the scoreline is, when a player comes out with | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
that kind of skill, Patrocinio, just delightful. He had three red shirts | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
around him, close skill and exceptional execution. Catlin, he | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
has got away from his man. The ball is forced out. | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
Barry Middleton. Taking it all the way, flicked across, a chance for a | :03:50. | :03:59. | |
shot but they have got the penalty corner. The defender effectively sat | :04:00. | :04:09. | |
down on the Great Britain attacker. Mendonca basically flattened Sam | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
Ward. It is a good left foot kick from Faustino and Ward gets trodden | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
on. And battered in the middle of the circle! Sam Ward sat upon as | :04:21. | :04:33. | |
Nick Catlin prepares to inject here. Ward might have a go at this. He is | :04:34. | :04:41. | |
alongside Jackson and it is Jackson. Good save again. Very good, Faustino | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
has seen one from Jackson to his bottom right and he reads that one | :04:49. | :04:56. | |
better. Nice run from Catlin. Just cannot find a way through that | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
resolute Brazilian defence. That is five or six times that Great | :04:59. | :05:11. | |
Britain have tried baseline attacks, trying to play it back into a space | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
to all three metres of the Brazilian line. You feel they might want to go | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
harder to the top of the circle because Brazil are flooding inside | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
the penalty spot. Mix it up a bit. Dixon, David Ames, back to Daniel | :05:28. | :05:37. | |
Fox. Michael Hoare doing well to the edge of the circle, a flicked it in, | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
great reactions again from the men in yellow. It will be another Great | :05:42. | :05:53. | |
Britain penalty corner. Sam Ward onto backhand, trying to get it | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
across the face of goal and the defender could not get out of the | :05:58. | :06:05. | |
way. This was the save, the end of the stick from Faustino. He was | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
beaten all end up apart from pretty much the paint on that carbon fibre | :06:13. | :06:20. | |
blade. Last time it was Jackson. Will Ward have a chance? It is | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
Jackson once more. He cannot get through. Goalkeeper and post man in | :06:26. | :06:38. | |
the same space, denying Jackson as he went low to their left. Cleared | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
away. David Ames, Jackson, most forward to | :06:46. | :07:07. | |
the edge. The Brazilians seem to be working in pairs as the British | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
attacks come. Ian Sloan jinking through. The backhand shot from | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
Jackson. Successfully defended once again. The last ten seconds of the | :07:22. | :07:31. | |
third quarter. Time and time again, Faustino has denied Great Britain. | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
The third quarter comes to its conclusion and it was jam-packed | :07:39. | :07:44. | |
with incident and drama and brilliant goalkeeping from Rodrigo | :07:45. | :07:53. | |
Faustino. Ashley Jackson defied time and again by the keeper. 4-1 to | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
Great Britain. A really good game and a really good | :07:58. | :08:09. | |
atmosphere. Those are the numbers so far. It tells the tale of the | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
dominant Great Britain have but also the unfortunate situation, only | :08:16. | :08:24. | |
three conversions from 18 shots. Crutchley will have to have a word | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
with his troops about where to get the cleaner chances. They are | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
forcing an area inside the area. A couple of opportunities, Catlin down | :08:36. | :08:42. | |
the right to start with. Fox almost went through Faustino in the first | :08:43. | :08:44. | |
seconds of the third quarter. But swipe from fox on the half | :08:45. | :08:58. | |
volley. They kept pushing and missing. Faustino saved and saved | :08:59. | :09:07. | |
again. It is what they have done in every game, the goalkeeper and his | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
tee fullbacks have created a defensive rearguard. A snapshot in | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
front of the goalkeeper ended up hitting Barry Middleton but Martin | :09:17. | :09:25. | |
finally found the goal. There was a suspicion of it being back stick but | :09:26. | :09:27. | |
nobody appealed it and it was given. Brazil have had a goalkeeping | :09:28. | :09:44. | |
change. Which is a bit of a surprise Ben Mee in mind how well Faustino | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
has played but they have brought on the big man -- given how well. Great | :09:48. | :09:57. | |
Britain will hope it plays into their hands. The other teams might | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
look at that with a bit of dismay because Faustino has been | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
exceptional. Great Britain need gold and could take advantage of a | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
relatively cold goalkeeper. Middleton has a swipe at it and it | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
is of the need of the goalkeeper and that'll do his confidence a bit of | :10:21. | :10:28. | |
positive energy. It is back into the circle for Great Britain. Van der | :10:29. | :10:34. | |
Heijden comes away with it. He gets into space. Lovely little run from | :10:35. | :10:44. | |
him. Absolutely nothing to pass to. He did well to carry the ball. In | :10:45. | :10:54. | |
the end they just got it up the other end. Michael Hoare, the Great | :10:55. | :11:08. | |
Britain number 12. Ashley Jackson. Now it is to the edge of the circle. | :11:09. | :11:18. | |
Condon is in there. Henry Weir is in there. Barry Middleton just in front | :11:19. | :11:27. | |
of the goal. And it is a terrific strike and a brilliant goal from Sam | :11:28. | :11:35. | |
Ward. 5-1. Great Britain patient in the build-up, Sam Ward doing what he | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
does best. He is more of a classic centre forward and the ball was | :11:41. | :11:42. | |
precise onto the end of his stick but there is the lead to the | :11:43. | :11:51. | |
backhand, touch and up and bang and the goalkeeper could not get his | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
feet together. The body weight and momentum and power, straight through | :11:58. | :12:00. | |
the keeper. Bearing in mind what happened when Faustino, the other | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
goalkeeper, was on the field, you sensed he might have had that. | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
Absolutely, I could not agree more. You want to give players experience | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
and exposure with the game lost, but for the other teams, this could have | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
a decisive impact on the final standings. 5-1, five different | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
goal-scorers. Keeper in the right position that | :12:26. | :12:54. | |
time. Bomfim will have to decide if he can police that area in front of | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
his goal as well as Faustino did. Great Britain trying to exploit the | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
sidelines and baselines and find the passes into the goal. Fox again. | :13:05. | :13:12. | |
David Ames. He will switch direction. Hoare again has the | :13:13. | :13:19. | |
Middleton to his left and he goes back to David Ames. Flicked up to | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
Jackson. He circled and heads backwards. Now they find Middleton. | :13:26. | :13:33. | |
When any Great Britain player receives the ball, they had to | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
change direction because the Brazilian midfield is hanging out | :13:38. | :13:44. | |
physically. Michael Hoare with the attempted shot, cleared comfortably | :13:45. | :13:52. | |
by Bomfim. It is all Great Britain at the moment. Pressure move after | :13:53. | :14:03. | |
pressure move. Jackson on the right. A shuttle from Ward and behind. | :14:04. | :14:11. | |
Given as a 16, Henry Weir must have got the final touch. Ward turns and | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
gets up right, difficult execution, no touch, straight off Ward which is | :14:17. | :14:24. | |
why it went to a 16 yard hit. Great Britain have to go full-court press | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
now and let Brazil throw it down the field and get it back. | :14:29. | :14:40. | |
Great Britain got the sideline, they would have got the free hit if it | :14:41. | :15:10. | |
had not got off as it was flicked dangerously towards Gleghorne but | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
they go crossfield to find a bit more opportunity. | :15:15. | :15:35. | |
Fortunately Ian Sloan doing some defensive running, Brazil leading | :15:36. | :15:43. | |
high. A crash ball on the left-hand side. Fortunately the physicality of | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
this game finale for Great Britain is paying off against the | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
Brazilians. He has combined well with Mark Gleghorne to get this far. | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
Nick Catlin is in there and Simon Mantell as well. Trying to put | :16:01. | :16:07. | |
pressure on the Brazilians. Great Britain with nine and a half minutes | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
to go, they are going to an 11 man outfield unit. They note they need | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
goals. I agree completely with this. No point wasting time. If you | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
concede now, the game is won, they need to try and score four or five | :16:25. | :16:32. | |
goals. George Pinner is redundant. Great Britain does not have a | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
goalkeeper, 11 outfield players now. Barry Middleton dons a different | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
colour, he is wearing green. He does not clash with the Brazilian grain. | :16:42. | :16:52. | |
I think it is actually Daniel Fox is wearing the green. Barry Middleton | :16:53. | :17:01. | |
still on the field of play. 11 outfield players for Great Britain | :17:02. | :17:11. | |
now. Nick Catlin. Such fine margins, everything thing that Great Britain | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
do needs to be precise. They have no time to waste. Brazil can party. | :17:15. | :17:25. | |
They have space to run into. He blew his whistle two seconds earlier. It | :17:26. | :17:34. | |
has got very rowdy sends Dan Fox appeared that green shirt on and | :17:35. | :17:40. | |
George Pinner left the field. Again, Great Britain, this is accounting | :17:41. | :17:47. | |
exercise. Tag them up man-to-man, leave one extra as a spare and move | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
up the fields and create a sense of opportunity. Dan Fox. Jackson. | :17:53. | :18:05. | |
Jackson needs to be careful, Brazil have an open goal of the get to the | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
circle. Nick Catlin holds it up, good turn -- if they get to the | :18:11. | :18:22. | |
circle. Dan Fox to Jackson. Michael Hoare. Barry Middleton getting his | :18:23. | :18:35. | |
stick involved. Lovely turn from Simon Mantell, lovely bit of skill | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
from their veteran. All the way to the edge. | :18:42. | :18:52. | |
Simon Mantell at it again, down he goes. Herded by the Brazilian, Andre | :18:53. | :19:05. | |
Patrocinio. He gets a card as a result. Extra advantage in terms of | :19:06. | :19:12. | |
players on the field as Andre Patrocinio heads for a two | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
suspension. It is a tired head of defending that leads to the Great | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
Britain corner. -- two minute suspension. They are not getting the | :19:23. | :19:37. | |
incision into the circle. Mark Gleghorne, Jackson, Simon Mantell, | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
Sam Ward, all there, Jackson has a go. Having gone a man down, the | :19:41. | :19:55. | |
number 15 took that, Van Der Heijden has got that. If he is within five | :19:56. | :20:03. | |
metres and the ball hits above the knee, it is considered dangerous to | :20:04. | :20:05. | |
the defensive team and they can free hit. Jackson has gone high, Van Der | :20:06. | :20:13. | |
Heijden is within that zone. It is high and dangerous. Van Der Heijden | :20:14. | :20:21. | |
being helped from the field but I think he is OK. He has probably been | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
taken off as a precaution. The clock has been stopped, seven | :20:25. | :20:37. | |
minutes left to play. He is the man on the bench. So, here we go. The | :20:38. | :20:48. | |
match continues. 5-1 for Great Britain but they need goals and they | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
do not have a goalkeeper. They need to go to the split back two when | :20:55. | :21:00. | |
they play so well. Iain Lewers gets forward. Half backs up in the | :21:01. | :21:07. | |
attacking 23. Dan Fox in the circle. It is held up, it is a goal for | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
Barry Middleton. His second. A touch in the middle of the circle, a ball | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
fired in from deep, Iain Lewers carries it forwards. A glancing | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
blow, Dan Fox driving, Mark Gleghorne hunting and Middleton in | :21:29. | :21:31. | |
the end finding the free ball to go over the top of Thiago Bonfim. It is | :21:32. | :21:38. | |
not pretty, but it is effective. With the extra man, you cannot mark | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
everyone. Brazil know that that could have been avoided so easily. | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
Second goal of the game for Barry Middleton. 6-1 to Great Britain. The | :21:50. | :21:58. | |
strategy beginning to pay off. Just to remind you that the result when | :21:59. | :22:05. | |
Brazil played Spain was 7-0 and they lost 12-0 to Belgium. Great Britain | :22:06. | :22:12. | |
have to recognise that Brazil have a man down as well, 11 outfield versus | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
nine and as soon as you have eliminated one man, try to find a | :22:19. | :22:33. | |
passable is top --.. Brazil now giving themselves an option, leading | :22:34. | :22:41. | |
two players away to the right so they can go high and long. Chased | :22:42. | :22:52. | |
down hard by Lucas Paixao, unable to get there. There is George Pinner. | :22:53. | :23:05. | |
Brazil nudged the ball out of play. Absolutely nothing else to play out. | :23:06. | :23:17. | |
You only have to look at the body language, these guys are literally | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
running on trickle, there is nothing left to try and get into the face of | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
the Great Britain distribution. Brazil have the chance of a break. | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
Two men in front. The crowd baying for another Brazilian gold. Here | :23:34. | :23:46. | |
come Great Britain. Penalty corner. Dan Fox combining with Sam Ward to | :23:47. | :23:52. | |
put the Brazilian foot on the ball. Dan Fox no longer wearing the green | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
shirt, it has been given to Michael Hoare now. Popping the ball up. It | :23:56. | :24:02. | |
was all because he chased and handed the ball down. A great longer first | :24:03. | :24:08. | |
tackle, nicking the ball away from his opponent and allowing him and | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
Harry Martin to combine in the circle. Ashley Jackson, Mark | :24:12. | :24:21. | |
Leghorn. Adam Dixon. All sorts of options here but they have forgotten | :24:22. | :24:24. | |
who would do the injection. They almost run out of time. Here is the | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
goal. Beautifully finished that time by Mark Gleghorne. Something close | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
to a comedy routine, Sam Ward recognising that Great Britain would | :24:38. | :24:40. | |
have that penalty corner taken off them. Mark Gleghorne, favourite | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
position, pulls it around his body, he loves to do that. He has got all | :24:46. | :24:52. | |
the strength of the body rotation, great core, upper body rotation, | :24:53. | :24:56. | |
drag and web past Thiago Bonfim in the Brazilian gold. We have had a | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
bit of everything tonight. Mark Gleghorne is now on the bench. The | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
scoreline, 7-1 to Great Britain. Missed pass, Nick Catlin climbs all | :25:08. | :25:31. | |
over it and holds it up. Passes at act. Middleton is there trying to | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
dig it back. As ill get possession. That is the space that Brazil have | :25:36. | :25:39. | |
defended so well for the entire game -- Brazil. Good pick-up from Dan | :25:40. | :25:49. | |
Fox, going forward at pace, a lovely move forward, Middleton tries to | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
lock the keeper. That is a penalty stroke on the line. That has been | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
drilled pass the feet of Thiago Bonfim. Absolutely nailed the cover | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
defender. Great awareness from Middleton, not convinced that the | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
log was a great choice but we see that the goalkeeper tries to go over | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
the top. Walloped from Middleton, smashed into the line to give away | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
the penalty stroke. Brazil want this looked at upstairs. So, we are | :26:20. | :26:31. | |
looking to see, was the shot from Middleton going into the goal when | :26:32. | :26:35. | |
it hit the defender? Given that he has stood on the and that is his | :26:36. | :26:42. | |
right knee... Without a doubt. Came off his left shin pad, I think. He | :26:43. | :26:49. | |
is benefiting from Hawk-Eye technology, an image from every | :26:50. | :26:54. | |
single camera in the ground. Brazil lose their appeal. Jackson versus | :26:55. | :27:03. | |
Thiago Bonfim. Penalty stroke. This to make it 8-1. | :27:04. | :27:14. | |
Jackson, top corner. Brazil won, Great Britain, eight. There are not | :27:15. | :27:27. | |
many goalkeepers in the world who can get near Jackson from the | :27:28. | :27:33. | |
penalty but. Such disguise, that has gone past Thiago Bonfim. He went the | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
right way but you cannot get your body to move quickly enough unless | :27:38. | :27:42. | |
you have guessed and gone early. Jackson's second, the eighth for | :27:43. | :27:49. | |
Great Britain. Three minutes and 41 seconds of this extraordinary half | :27:50. | :27:53. | |
of hockey to play. We said at the top of the show that we felt they | :27:54. | :27:59. | |
would need to put ten on the board. With seven minutes to go I thought | :28:00. | :28:02. | |
that was a pipe dream. But they have pulled the goalkeeper. Bold with | :28:03. | :28:10. | |
that eight minutes to go. Back and be let pass harmlessly behind. Dan | :28:11. | :28:20. | |
Fox on his way down the left. He has been very effective, marauding down | :28:21. | :28:25. | |
the left flank. A little flick and here goes Dan Fox, Middleton. He | :28:26. | :28:30. | |
holds it up, teasing the Brazilian defence. It is over the top. No idea | :28:31. | :28:37. | |
how David Ames has managed to shovel out over the crossbar. Middleton | :28:38. | :28:41. | |
decides he can get across, moves beat well. David Ames tries to flash | :28:42. | :28:46. | |
at it, gets underneath it, too much right hand. | :28:47. | :29:01. | |
Chances here, one against one in the circle. Iain Lewers on a long sweep | :29:02. | :29:12. | |
tackle in a game with more, you feel that could have been penalised, | :29:13. | :29:15. | |
there was only one place that ball was going and that was off the | :29:16. | :29:19. | |
baseline. I have seen corner is given for that in other matches but | :29:20. | :29:23. | |
tonight the game is dead for Brazil but they are still giving it | :29:24. | :29:28. | |
everything they have got. Finish with heads held high. They want | :29:29. | :29:32. | |
another goal. They scored their first in Olympic hockey, the first | :29:33. | :29:39. | |
goal of the match went to Brazil. They want a second. Towards the | :29:40. | :29:46. | |
circle, ball up high. The ball was drilled in at waist height towards | :29:47. | :29:53. | |
Iain Lewers. He is pretty cross about it. Middleton, charging away | :29:54. | :30:04. | |
down the left. Tries to find Nick Catlin but cannot. Ball behind Nick | :30:05. | :30:12. | |
Catlin who was trying to jump up in the air. Brazil still looking for | :30:13. | :30:19. | |
the goal as they get towards the circle. | :30:20. | :30:26. | |
Middleton across the deck, finds Jackson, left hand on the stick. | :30:27. | :30:34. | |
Plenty of pace, all the way to the circle, backhand across the field | :30:35. | :30:39. | |
and finished right in front of the Brazilian goal. That is a score for | :30:40. | :30:47. | |
Sam Ward. That was all about Jackson Hart left hand skills, hand eye | :30:48. | :30:51. | |
coordination, out to the left and around the last man, the right hand | :30:52. | :30:56. | |
through and Great Britain lining up with three men across the | :30:57. | :30:59. | |
goalkeeper. Super strike from Jackson. Sam Ward is the man, if you | :31:00. | :31:06. | |
want somebody in the danger area, he is the one. The faintest touch from | :31:07. | :31:11. | |
Sam Ward, his second goal of the night. 9-1. Crutchley's creative | :31:12. | :31:22. | |
instincts in removing George Pinner have paid off. He has got a handful | :31:23. | :31:28. | |
of goals since Pinner left the field. That is a tired, tired pass | :31:29. | :31:39. | |
from the attempted exchange between centre and right midfield, must have | :31:40. | :31:42. | |
been five yards away from where it to be. Lewers. Hoare wearing the | :31:43. | :31:53. | |
green shirt. The last 30 seconds of the match. Can Brazil get the crowd | :31:54. | :32:01. | |
on their feet and score in the dying seconds? David Ames back to tidy up. | :32:02. | :32:12. | |
He find Middleton. He fires it forward. It is behind and the clock | :32:13. | :32:19. | |
will tick down and the hooter will sound and Great Britain have got the | :32:20. | :32:20. | |
job done. A cracking game of hockey it began | :32:21. | :32:33. | |
with Brazil's first ever goal in an Olympic competition and Great | :32:34. | :32:37. | |
Britain had to think and fight back. They removed George Pinner and | :32:38. | :32:41. | |
things really started to happen. They have given Brazil a really good | :32:42. | :32:48. | |
working over. But it has been a thoroughly entertaining game. Those | :32:49. | :32:53. | |
are the scorers in the order in which they came. | :32:54. | :33:02. | |
The final score, a terrific match, Brazil 1-9 Great Britain. | :33:03. | :33:16. | |
That you have it, another great night of hockey and a reminder that | :33:17. | :33:22. | |
Team GB's next game is Australia, the top ranked team in the | :33:23. | :33:27. | |
competition, and that is tomorrow. Welcome back to a bit of beach | :33:28. | :33:33. | |
action. We have been joined by a triumvirate of British ladies. This | :33:34. | :33:42. | |
is an, Nim, and Peggy, who is a veteran of four Olympic Games. I can | :33:43. | :33:47. | |
read Barcelona 92 on the top of your hat, was that the first one? That is | :33:48. | :33:53. | |
the first one, in Barcelona and it was all new. Barcelona previously | :33:54. | :33:59. | |
was not so modern but they did a fantastic job getting it all | :34:00. | :34:06. | |
together and they had a wonderful setting. The diving went off the top | :34:07. | :34:10. | |
and it was a fantastic view. We got to be swimming and the athletics and | :34:11. | :34:17. | |
they had their show games which was wonderful to be in amongst the | :34:18. | :34:23. | |
crowd. All of those memories. Nim, this is your third Olympics. What | :34:24. | :34:28. | |
have you made a it so far? It's been great but we have had one or two | :34:29. | :34:33. | |
issues. The awful situation with the security on the first day. A lot of | :34:34. | :34:37. | |
people might have heard about it but what was it like in those queues? | :34:38. | :34:43. | |
Extremely hard to come it must have been 35 degrees in the shade and we | :34:44. | :34:47. | |
were not in the shade so we were about 40 minutes late for the first | :34:48. | :34:52. | |
hockey game. The other thing was that we have seen some table tennis | :34:53. | :34:58. | |
which was great. And we saw a volleyball game which we thought | :34:59. | :35:01. | |
would be wonderful but we were a bit upset by the experience. We were | :35:02. | :35:08. | |
among, it was the Americans and Canadians, we thought it would be | :35:09. | :35:12. | |
fantastic but the Canadians starting doing. We were so shocked that | :35:13. | :35:16. | |
people would do that at Olympics. Did you tell them off? We both did! | :35:17. | :35:27. | |
Anna has a wonderful title, she is an Olympic family assistant. What | :35:28. | :35:36. | |
does that mean? I'm here looking after the president of the Danish | :35:37. | :35:39. | |
Olympic Committee. Do we have to salute you? ! It is so much fun. It | :35:40. | :35:48. | |
means I accompany him and help organise his transport. I have been | :35:49. | :35:52. | |
able to sit in on a few events and what the swimming. He applied to be | :35:53. | :35:58. | |
a volunteer and this came up? It did. It has been really good, I | :35:59. | :36:03. | |
turned up in Brazil and was told I would have a client to look after | :36:04. | :36:06. | |
and on the first day I found that it was him. Do you speak Danish? Sadly | :36:07. | :36:13. | |
not. I am hoping I can pick up some but it's not like anything I've | :36:14. | :36:19. | |
learned before. Do you speak Danish, Peggy? No! And you are staying for | :36:20. | :36:27. | |
the Paralympics and working? I will be volunteering at the airport doing | :36:28. | :36:31. | |
accreditation and welcoming the athletes. I'm hoping to see some big | :36:32. | :36:36. | |
names. Before we let you go, you are here for a few more days? What are | :36:37. | :36:40. | |
you going to take in? Beach volleyball tomorrow. Don't tell | :36:41. | :36:47. | |
anybody off this time! I saw that in Bondi Beach and that was fantastic | :36:48. | :36:52. | |
and also at Horse Guards Parade. And on Friday morning, the athletics and | :36:53. | :36:59. | |
we go home then. You haven't Barcelona, Sydney, London and now | :37:00. | :37:04. | |
Rio. Yes. Peggy is very good at telling people off, I was apparently | :37:05. | :37:10. | |
too tall to interview her so I have made myself a hole! We are going to | :37:11. | :37:15. | |
do some headlines now. Thank you very much. Can you give us, time for | :37:16. | :37:24. | |
the headlines... Time now for the day for headlines on BBC Four. From | :37:25. | :37:27. | |
Rio! Well done, Peggy. Team USA divided | :37:28. | :37:43. | |
the women's team gymnastics title -- defended. Helped by the all-round | :37:44. | :37:47. | |
favourite, Simone Biles. Team GB finished in fifth place. An | :37:48. | :37:53. | |
agonising fifth place as well for Tonia Couch and Lois Toulson as | :37:54. | :37:58. | |
Jonah took the gold in the ten metre the grow -- as China took the gold | :37:59. | :38:08. | |
in the ten metre synchro. A huge victory for Johanna Konta, coming | :38:09. | :38:10. | |
from a set down to beat Svetlana Kuznetsova. And look at what it | :38:11. | :38:15. | |
meant when she made it through to the quarterfinal where she will play | :38:16. | :38:19. | |
Sam Stosur or Angelique Kerber. Andy Murray is also through to the last | :38:20. | :38:25. | |
eight. Katherine Grainger remains on course to win a fifth Olympic medal, | :38:26. | :38:30. | |
she and Big E Thornley booked their spot in the double sculls final -- | :38:31. | :38:34. | |
Vic Iain Thornley. -- Vicky Thornley. And a dramatic | :38:35. | :38:43. | |
day in the rugby sevens, two wins for Team GB. An incredible second | :38:44. | :38:50. | |
game against Japan which they squeaked, 21-19, after Japan had | :38:51. | :38:56. | |
earlier stunned New Zealand by beating the favourites. This is what | :38:57. | :38:59. | |
is available on all of the other channels. On the Red Button right | :39:00. | :39:04. | |
now we have tennis, I think it is Serena Williams in action against | :39:05. | :39:09. | |
Elina Svitolina, who knocked out Heather Watson earlier in the week. | :39:10. | :39:15. | |
Weightlifting is also available on the Red Button at the moment. Add on | :39:16. | :39:22. | |
the website and BBC sport app you can access up to 24 live streams | :39:23. | :39:25. | |
depending on what is happening. We now know who Johanna Konta will | :39:26. | :39:36. | |
play in the quarterfinals, it is Angelique Kerber, who was a | :39:37. | :39:42. | |
Wimbledon finalist this year. She beat Sam Stosur 6-0, 7-5. We have | :39:43. | :39:46. | |
been concentrating a lot on the rugby sevens and we're going to take | :39:47. | :39:50. | |
you back now. We watched that amazing game between Fiji and | :39:51. | :39:54. | |
Argentina with some amazing skills. This was the try of the game and | :39:55. | :40:00. | |
eventually they won 21-14. They have never won an Olympic medal of any | :40:01. | :40:04. | |
sort. After that game, their coach, Ben Ryan, spoke with John Inverdale. | :40:05. | :40:13. | |
First things first, as an advert for seven scum that was stupendous. | :40:14. | :40:18. | |
Wasn't it? Argentina are a great side. -- sevens rugby. It was a | :40:19. | :40:25. | |
pretty stellar try to clinch it. We are thrilled to be two from two but | :40:26. | :40:31. | |
credit to Argentina, they will be right there at the end of the | :40:32. | :40:34. | |
tournament on Thursday. Where are you at the moment? We are OK, we | :40:35. | :40:41. | |
have not put in 14 minutes but it's hard against teams like Argentina, | :40:42. | :40:44. | |
they make the break down hard and suffocate you a bit and if you don't | :40:45. | :40:47. | |
get your possession right and hit the ball hard, they will beat you. | :40:48. | :40:52. | |
Their kick-offs were well-planned and tactically good. We will be in | :40:53. | :40:56. | |
the quarter finals and if we beat the USA we will retain the number | :40:57. | :41:01. | |
one seed. It seems that New Zealand have lost that aura of invincibility | :41:02. | :41:02. | |
which has kind of past to you. How intimidated do you think opponents | :41:03. | :41:20. | |
are playing Fiji? I hope a lot! New Zealand were like that. We have | :41:21. | :41:23. | |
beaten them nine times in the last ten games so it has shifted to us | :41:24. | :41:25. | |
but with that comes pressure. Hopefully we will rise to the | :41:26. | :41:29. | |
occasion. And we won't suffer from not giving it our best shot. We live | :41:30. | :41:35. | |
and die by the sword with how we play our attacking game. And give an | :41:36. | :41:38. | |
indication of what this means to people back home. We were talking to | :41:39. | :41:44. | |
the Americans, they often get 200,000 hits on their website a week | :41:45. | :41:52. | |
and you have had 9,000,048 hours. What is it doing for Fiji? -- 9 | :41:53. | :41:59. | |
million in 48 hours. It is a tiny dot in the middle of the Pacific, a | :42:00. | :42:03. | |
great place with amazing people but we also have the best sevens team on | :42:04. | :42:07. | |
the planet and it is a fanatical backing. Our Prime Minister with a | :42:08. | :42:13. | |
half his government is here. Everybody will not be at work, you | :42:14. | :42:17. | |
will see people in the banks cheering us on, it will be from | :42:18. | :42:21. | |
every corner of Fiji. They are so proud of it and for these 14 | :42:22. | :42:27. | |
minutes, we are in the spotlight on a global state and they are very | :42:28. | :42:32. | |
proud of being Fijian and through the sevens team, they show that | :42:33. | :42:35. | |
appreciation and pride. Serious pressure! It is, but that's the job. | :42:36. | :42:43. | |
Well done so far. Thank you. A big smile from Ben Ryan, good to know | :42:44. | :42:49. | |
that the BGN pry minister is here. The sevens continues for the next | :42:50. | :42:56. | |
few days -- Fijian Prime Minister. GB take on New Zealand tomorrow. | :42:57. | :43:07. | |
That is at 4:30pm UK time. The bin men, hello! They gave us a wave. | :43:08. | :43:14. | |
They come around at this time every night. What time is it here? It is a | :43:15. | :43:21. | |
quarter to eight, quarter to midnight in the UK. They come and | :43:22. | :43:26. | |
empty the bins which is a lovely service because copper cabana is | :43:27. | :43:29. | |
normally packed all day all stop and when you talk to people here -- | :43:30. | :43:33. | |
double cabana. Everyday I have spoken to the same guy and he talks | :43:34. | :43:39. | |
about football, about Brazil, the Premier League, Paul Pogba but today | :43:40. | :43:44. | |
was the first day he mentioned the Olympics. Football is king here but | :43:45. | :43:49. | |
it broke through today because of the victory for Rafaela Silva in the | :43:50. | :43:53. | |
judo who took the first gold medal for Brazil. She comes from the city | :43:54. | :43:58. | |
of God favela are here made famous in the film which many of you will | :43:59. | :44:02. | |
have seen and her story is incredible. She got into judo, it | :44:03. | :44:07. | |
made such a difference in her life and the emotional scenes when she | :44:08. | :44:11. | |
won the gold medal yesterday were shown all over the country and have | :44:12. | :44:16. | |
been on the front pages of the papers. We will take you to a bit of | :44:17. | :44:21. | |
judo now. We have a final on the way in a minute. Don't fear, this is the | :44:22. | :44:28. | |
judo guide. Judo was developed in the late 19th | :44:29. | :44:42. | |
century in Japan and has been an Olympic sport since Tokyo in 1964. | :44:43. | :44:49. | |
Each contest as a duration of five minutes for men or four minutes for | :44:50. | :44:52. | |
women. If scores are level at the end of the contest, they enter | :44:53. | :44:58. | |
golden score where there is no time limit and the first score or penalty | :44:59. | :45:01. | |
awarded will decide the contest. The highest scoring technique is a ippon | :45:02. | :45:09. | |
which is in the wind contest and can be achieved in four ways, throwing | :45:10. | :45:13. | |
an opponent with impact on their back with considerable force and | :45:14. | :45:17. | |
speed, pinning and holding down an opponent for 20 seconds with | :45:18. | :45:21. | |
selected holding techniques. When an opponent submits or gives up or | :45:22. | :45:28. | |
scoring two waza ari against an opponent. Waza ari can be achieved | :45:29. | :45:31. | |
in two ways. Throwing an opponent but lacking one of the elements for | :45:32. | :45:36. | |
ippon or holding up an opponent for 15 seconds or more but less than 20 | :45:37. | :45:44. | |
seconds. A yuko is worth one point and can also be scored in two ways, | :45:45. | :45:49. | |
throwing an opponent but lacking to element needed for ippon or holding | :45:50. | :45:52. | |
down an opponent for ten to 14 seconds. Judah is a knockout | :45:53. | :45:55. | |
competition at all competitors are placed in a drawer divided into two | :45:56. | :46:00. | |
tables. The top eight athletes for each quick category are seeded in | :46:01. | :46:03. | |
line with their world rankings and the two finalists will compete for | :46:04. | :46:05. | |
the gold and silver medals. Robert? We will show you a gold | :46:06. | :46:20. | |
medal match. It sees Trevor Stevens take on the Russian. Here are the | :46:21. | :46:41. | |
gold medal men. From Russia and standing right throughout, Travis | :46:42. | :46:52. | |
Stephens of the USA the number one in the world in the semifinal to get | :46:53. | :46:59. | |
him here right now it is the young and the old only to years of age, | :47:00. | :47:25. | |
Travis Stephens in white and Khasan Khalmurzaev in blue and we are away. | :47:26. | :48:06. | |
I do not know which way this will go because Travis Stephens is going to | :48:07. | :48:09. | |
try and get him to ground and Khasan Khalmurzaev will look for an | :48:10. | :48:14. | |
opportunity for counter. He has had great form, four matches already but | :48:15. | :48:23. | |
so has Travis Stevens. He is having the day of his life. A penalty | :48:24. | :48:27. | |
straightaway, might get the benefit of the doubt. A lot of nerds out | :48:28. | :48:39. | |
there. First final four attempt three, a semifinalist in London and | :48:40. | :48:45. | |
this time he does it. They are not the big heavyweights but they are | :48:46. | :48:49. | |
not small boys, they are so agile and strong and that is what this | :48:50. | :48:52. | |
board is all about, the balance of Hardy and mind. The throw comes from | :48:53. | :48:58. | |
the American but no score, could not get the Russian opponent on his | :48:59. | :49:05. | |
back. Continues to work at it. -- body and mind. Can he get around the | :49:06. | :49:12. | |
body and the neck? The referee will let this go. He is doing everything | :49:13. | :49:18. | |
he can, Travis Stevens. He stands over the top, one more chance to get | :49:19. | :49:24. | |
underneath, can he do it? Khasan Khalmurzaev is strong in defence. | :49:25. | :49:28. | |
The referee watches. A wonderful move from the American. He is giving | :49:29. | :49:35. | |
his all. Hard to see what is happening. We know he will not stop. | :49:36. | :49:43. | |
The referee is up close. He calls. After all of that, no score. Travis | :49:44. | :49:50. | |
Stevens was trying very hard there to secure the arm. Khasan | :49:51. | :49:55. | |
Khalmurzaev managing to pull the arm in every time. It is going to take a | :49:56. | :50:03. | |
fair bit out of them both. Attack or defend, it is one of the hardest | :50:04. | :50:07. | |
things, ground work take such a lot out of you and then you have to | :50:08. | :50:12. | |
stand up. Sometimes you have to know when to release it, not go for it, | :50:13. | :50:18. | |
because if you expend too much energy... That was a brilliant | :50:19. | :50:22. | |
technique from Khasan Khalmurzaev. Khasan Khalmurzaev has to be curve, | :50:23. | :50:25. | |
every time he goes to ground. Travis Stevens. -- careful. Spectacular | :50:26. | :50:35. | |
final. Still no score. A third down lap belt in judo is Travis Stevens, | :50:36. | :50:42. | |
he also has a black out in jujitsu and that taught he can catch anyone | :50:43. | :50:53. | |
-- blackbelt. -- blackbelt. Takes him down and the Russian turns it | :50:54. | :50:58. | |
around on the counterattack. He has won it and got the gold medal. | :50:59. | :51:03. | |
Travis Stevens lies on the map in despair. How did that happen? That | :51:04. | :51:10. | |
man just proved off an amazing move. He goes to ground. He cannot believe | :51:11. | :51:17. | |
what he has done. The gold medal for Russia and Khasan Khalmurzaev and | :51:18. | :51:21. | |
the silver medal goes to Travis Stevens from the USA. That was | :51:22. | :51:24. | |
nothing short of absolutely fabulous to decide the Olympic champion in | :51:25. | :51:32. | |
the 81 kilograms competition. Russia over America. | :51:33. | :51:43. | |
Absolutely always looked dangerous, Khasan Khalmurzaev. Travis Stevens | :51:44. | :51:49. | |
was coming forwards. Travis Stevens gets the silver medal and he fully | :51:50. | :51:54. | |
deserves that silver medal. Khasan Khalmurzaev there, you can see the | :51:55. | :52:01. | |
Russians behind me, all just praying really that he can pull it off. | :52:02. | :52:06. | |
Khasan Khalmurzaev was almost waiting, he looked dangerous, in the | :52:07. | :52:11. | |
first attack, it looked as though he was going to throw Travis Stevens | :52:12. | :52:15. | |
and then the second one, he got right the way underneath them and it | :52:16. | :52:20. | |
was game over. Brilliant stuff from Khasan Khalmurzaev. Not too much | :52:21. | :52:25. | |
fuss. We will look at this. Talk us through this. It was brilliant | :52:26. | :52:31. | |
stuff. Travis Stevens had a plan and his plan was to get Khasan | :52:32. | :52:36. | |
Khalmurzaev on the ground. Khasan Khalmurzaev just managed to turn it | :52:37. | :52:42. | |
around. This is how it all started. Travis Stevens went around the back | :52:43. | :52:47. | |
and tried to throw Khasan Khalmurzaev. Khasan Khalmurzaev just | :52:48. | :52:50. | |
manages to dig in, change the direction and how many times do we | :52:51. | :52:57. | |
see that change of direction? It wins, very important matches. Travis | :52:58. | :53:03. | |
Stevens, he sacrifices, he tries to throw Khasan Khalmurzaev and he | :53:04. | :53:09. | |
readjusts his balance and then he sweeps right away in the inside. | :53:10. | :53:13. | |
Look how they readjust his support leg and he takes Travis Stevens | :53:14. | :53:17. | |
over, flat on his back with the biggest upon. Over 81 kilograms | :53:18. | :53:29. | |
decided on a beautiful technique. -- Travis Stevens. -- ippon. The power | :53:30. | :53:38. | |
in that right by when he planted it under pressure and seemingly moved | :53:39. | :53:44. | |
it ever so slightly and all of a sudden, it generated the power he | :53:45. | :53:47. | |
needed. That was incredible to watch, it really was. What an | :53:48. | :53:52. | |
amazing contest that was from start to finish and there are the | :53:53. | :53:56. | |
medallists now, Russia with the gold medal, USA with the silver medal and | :53:57. | :54:04. | |
bronze medals to the UAE and Japan. The quality was outstanding. Khasan | :54:05. | :54:10. | |
Khalmurzaev, the new Olympic champion. And that is why we love | :54:11. | :54:19. | |
the judo. We have been showing you an awful lot of tennis over the last | :54:20. | :54:23. | |
few days because so many of the big names have been going out. We go to | :54:24. | :54:27. | |
the national Tennis Centre. We showed you Heather Watson losing to | :54:28. | :54:32. | |
the Ukrainian a few days ago. And you can see that another big name is | :54:33. | :54:40. | |
in trouble. Venus Williams went out earlier on and this is Serena | :54:41. | :54:44. | |
Williams, the defending Olympic champion. Let us pick up the | :54:45. | :54:51. | |
commentary. We will join it in the second set trying to hold serve at | :54:52. | :55:00. | |
3-3. Players are accustomed to hitting that shot. That was gutsy | :55:01. | :55:02. | |
from Serena. Where has the serve gone? Three | :55:03. | :55:19. | |
double faults in this game. That was a painful expression on her | :55:20. | :55:44. | |
face there. Is she playing in pain. --?. | :55:45. | :55:57. | |
What is going on? She raises her arms. Shrugs her shoulders, she has | :55:58. | :56:08. | |
got no answers. It is another break point, Venus Williams looks on. It | :56:09. | :56:16. | |
is a break point here, this is a huge point. A huge second serve | :56:17. | :56:23. | |
after hitting all the doubles. Goodness, five double faults in one | :56:24. | :56:29. | |
game! And Elina Svitolina with another break of serve in the second | :56:30. | :56:37. | |
set, 4-3, she will be serving 45-3 in the second set and she is up one | :56:38. | :56:42. | |
- zero. Re-watching one of the biggest | :56:43. | :58:01. | |
upsets in the tennis event at the Summer Olympics of 2016? -- are we | :58:02. | :58:08. | |
watching. Novak Djokovic has gone and now Serena Williams is hanging | :58:09. | :58:14. | |
on here. Elina Svitolina serving 4-3, second set and she leads by | :58:15. | :58:20. | |
1-0. Five double faults from Serena Williams in that last game. She has | :58:21. | :58:25. | |
been on tour for such a long time, three decades. | :58:26. | :58:49. | |
Forehand into the net. 40-0 at 4-3, second set. Exactly what Elina | :58:50. | :59:22. | |
Svitolina would have wanted from this game, three unforced errors | :59:23. | :59:23. | |
from Williams. It is long, return of serve is long, | :59:24. | :59:37. | |
Elina Svitolina holds her serve to zero. She is maybe overthinking, | :59:38. | :59:45. | |
maybe because of the shoulder, on the serve, she is doing the things | :59:46. | :59:51. | |
that she needs to in the situation, Elina Svitolina. Serving to stay in | :59:52. | :59:55. | |
the Olympics. She looks at odds with herself. Not | :59:56. | :00:20. | |
sure whether those are grimaces of pain or sheer disappointment that | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
she is making errors. Love 15, she is serving the second set -- not - | :00:25. | :00:37. | |
15. -- 0- 15. Backhand into the net. A gentle serve. I think that is a | :00:38. | :00:45. | |
grimace that is telling us that not all is well. 6-3, unforced errors | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
from Williams. Five double faults in the last | :00:50. | :01:00. | |
service game from Serena Williams. There is another. And now three | :01:01. | :01:13. | |
match points for Elina Svitolina, 21 years of age. Is she about to knock | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
out of the Rio Olympics the defending champion? Not yet. Nothing | :01:19. | :01:27. | |
on the serve, she wanted to go for the big winner to end the match. She | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
still has two match points. That is a big, big point! And | :01:33. | :02:05. | |
another shrug of the shoulders from Serena Williams. She has saved two | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
match points that there is still one more. She has been in so many | :02:11. | :02:19. | |
situations and got out of them in her career. If she can get out of | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
this situation it would be miraculous. | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
That it! It is wide and Elina Svitolina has knocked out Serena | :02:29. | :02:42. | |
Williams from the Olympics in 2016. The London champion from four years | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
ago, Serena Williams of the United States is out of the Rio de Janeiro | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
Olympics and that is a marvellous victory for the 21-year-old, Elina | :02:53. | :03:00. | |
Svitolina. And in straight sets at the Olympic Tennis Centre here in | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
Rio, one of the major upsets in tennis history. We touched on it | :03:06. | :03:14. | |
earlier as Serena leaves the court. In the early going, she was taking | :03:15. | :03:25. | |
it a bit gentle on the serve. I thought she was trying to feel her | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
way into the match on serve because of the first two rounds but | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
clutching the shoulder, that was telling. And some of the things we | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
have seen this evening that we have not seen from her in her career, the | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
five double faults in one game towards the end of the match and | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
seven straight unforced errors. Svitolina played well. You look at | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
the numbers, 17 unforced errors and nine winners. It tells you the story | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
of the match that Serena was missing all too often. Serena's unforced | :04:00. | :04:09. | |
error count was 37. Too many. And she will be wearing that smile all | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
evening. It is beautiful to see. She is Queen of the tennis world right | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
now, that is how she will feel. Who wants this tennis ball with my | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
signature on it? I thought it was a pretty classy handshake as well from | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
Svitolina, she didn't overdo it. Well done to her for being that | :04:31. | :04:40. | |
gracious at the net. And it could be a career defining win for her. To | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
beat Serena, and I talked about not getting a big win over a top player, | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
Serena may not have been 100% but mentally for her, it is huge. Elina | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
Svitolina, 21 years of age from Ukraine, has knocked out the great | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
Serena Williams, 6-4, 6-3, in this third round and she has earned | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
herself a quarterfinal against Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic. | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
Wow. What a night, the tennis has produced so many upsets, both the | :05:14. | :05:21. | |
Williams sisters out in the singles, Novak Djokovic a few days ago lost | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
to Juan Martin Del Potro and was in tears on Centre Court. For those | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
people who think the Olympics does not mean much for tennis or golfing | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
stars, that shows you the heartache they go through when they are out. | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
The good news for Team GB is that although Heather Watson was also | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
beaten by Elina Svitolina yesterday, we do have both Andy Murray and | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
Johanna Konta in the quarterfinals. Andy Murray will play Fabio Fognini | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
and Johanna Konta, who somehow got the better of Svetlana Kuznetsova | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
earlier as we showed you, she will now play the Wimbledon finalist, | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
Angelique Kerber, in her quarterfinal. We are back in our | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
little spot among the shrubbery and look who is behind us, the same time | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
as last night. We have got the circuit trainers. And the fella in | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
the green top who looked a bit like Antony Worrall Thompson, he is back | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
in exactly the same top. I might have a chat with him later to see if | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
he has given it a wash or if he is going double bubble on the same | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
muscle vest! All of the big issues to be discussed later. Keep your | :06:38. | :06:44. | |
messages coming in, we will do some Copaca-banter later! Get that in, | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
BBC Rio 2016 is the hashtag. A lot of you were enjoying the judo | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
yesterday so we have got another one, this is a gold match, the | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
women's 63 kilo match. This is it, Rio 2016 brings you the | :07:02. | :07:20. | |
final in the women's 63 telegram division. The judo competition here. | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
Slovenia and France. Clarisse Agbegnenou was very | :07:27. | :07:45. | |
impressive winning her semifinal as was this lady from Slovenia, Tina | :07:46. | :08:00. | |
Trstenjak. They might not be able to even hear the music or the announcer | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
but a pat on the back says OK, it's showtime. And the French woman knows | :08:07. | :08:13. | |
it. She was a substitute in London 2012. She did not make it but she | :08:14. | :08:20. | |
has certainly made a big impression here. This is the Japanese referee | :08:21. | :08:27. | |
who will keep a close watch on the contest. At the end of this we will | :08:28. | :08:36. | |
have a new gold medallist. Slovenia had one gold medal in London. But | :08:37. | :08:44. | |
she is not here. We are ready to go, this is the gold-medal bout, | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
Slovenia in white and in the blue colours, France. Clarisse Agbegnenou | :08:50. | :08:59. | |
right in their, and so is Tina Trstenjak. No love lost between | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
them, I can promise you that. A big attack and sweeps the inside of the | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
leg. Tina Trstenjak, like a woman possessed in there. Straightaway, | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
Clarisse Agbegnenou has got to get back on that pace, she has to match | :09:18. | :09:24. | |
her attack for attack. It is one against two in the world, and the | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
only time these ladies have lost in the last couple of years has been | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
against each other. They have incredible records. There are three | :09:33. | :09:40. | |
of them, we have just seen Gerbi. But it was a contest between those | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
three and you are dead right. The right ones are going to be on the | :09:47. | :09:56. | |
rostrum. Can Tina Trstenjak get a hold? Not quite, both arms and | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
trying to force her to the floor and there is a score in counterattack. | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
Tina Trstenjak turned that and she has got a hold. Clarisse Agbegnenou | :10:09. | :10:16. | |
has just got out. I thought that was a bit more than just a Yuko. Three | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
seconds away from a Gwaza ari. -- waza ari. There is the Yuko. It | :10:22. | :10:41. | |
is counting up. It could be all over here. Tina Trstenjak is going to be | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
the Olympic champion. What a performance. She did amazingly, that | :10:47. | :10:57. | |
was superb. I thought it was a bit more. It was a waza ari scored. One | :10:58. | :11:06. | |
minute 45 second is all it took and the gold medal goes to Slovenia. | :11:07. | :11:13. | |
That was amazing. How powerful is this lady? She has done it and she | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
is the Olympic champion. That was just unbelievable. That is two | :11:18. | :11:25. | |
Olympic Games in a row now that Slovenia have won this gold medal. | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
The same coach as well. Tina Trstenjak was superb. She came out | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
of the blocks and she just knew she was going to win this. You saw her | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
absolutely destroyed the world number two. I thought it was going | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
to be Clarisse Agbegnenou, I have to say, but Tina Trstenjak had | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
something to say about that. Clarisse Agbegnenou came for an | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
attack. And Tina Trstenjak turned it and the referee was absolutely right | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
having seen it now, she lands on her side. I thought it was a bit more | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
but it was on her side and she gets the Yuko and then she was on top of | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
her body hauled down and she manages to hold her for the ippon. That was | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
brilliant. Absolutely on fire, the world number one and now the Olympic | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
champion. She has been untouchable and that is now 62 wins from her | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
last 68 bouts and it ends with Olympic gold. She is the top of a | :12:33. | :12:40. | |
quality table. There it is, at the top. | :12:41. | :12:53. | |
What a brilliant performance from Tina Trstenjak. | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
I hope you are enjoying the judo tonight. Some messages, and one I | :13:00. | :13:08. | |
want to read, the DJ Ryan Smith says, I'm now explaining these judo | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
ruled in my sleep. That is the point of it, the Olympics, you get into a | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
sport you thought you knew nothing about and you become mildly | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
obsessive! I hope we are helping you. We are here for the next two | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
hours. It is past midnight at home. Stick with us because we still have | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
plenty more coming up. It is time to go for a wander so I am going to | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
come through the shrubbery. We are going onto the beach to show you a | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
bit of the circuit training because I know you are enjoying it. There is | :13:42. | :13:48. | |
Antony Worrall Thompson doing a bit of squatting at the moment. This | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
goes on for about three hours every night. They have got the battle | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
ropes here, some furious shaking. Look at this fella doing the ladder, | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
thinking about it. No, that yellow one. That is some intense ladder | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
work! This is a long session as well. Quick feet, you can tell they | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
are good footballers. It is the same guys that we had yesterday. Look at | :14:16. | :14:23. | |
this, the full reverse! I don't think we have had this live on the | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
BBC and I'm not sure we will again either. Thank you very much. Let me | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
introduce you to this young American. Nice to meet you. Where | :14:32. | :14:44. | |
are you from? Maryland. I am Olivia. There are always a lot of couples | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
here. Show us the full American flag, the stars and stripes. Give us | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
a twirl. That was very fast! What have you seen so far? Plenty of | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
medals already for the USA. Mostly watching us lose at beach | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
volleyball! But we have a good game against Brazil earlier and I'm | :15:09. | :15:14. | |
hoping to watch the USA win in the finals in basketball. You have | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
tickets already? Yes. LeBron James and Cestaro are not here, is it not | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
as strong as side as you could have brought -- Steph Curry. They are | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
both coming of injuries and a long season and we will do good with | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
Kevin Durant and the other big stars. | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
Is it still fun to watch when they are so much better? You do not care? | :15:39. | :15:47. | |
Not at all. What has been the highlight for you, Olivia? This is | :15:48. | :15:54. | |
my home town. Tell us about Raffaella silver who won yesterday? | :15:55. | :16:01. | |
We were watching the beach volleyball but I was sitting down | :16:02. | :16:08. | |
and I saw her win the gold medal. I was crying. It made me really happy. | :16:09. | :16:16. | |
Third all is very much a big thing here -- football. The Brazilian | :16:17. | :16:23. | |
football team have great hopes of winning an Olympic medal, it has to | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
be the gold medal, that tells you about the significance of Raffaella | :16:27. | :16:33. | |
silver. So many Brazilians are talking about something that is not | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
the all and it is rare. The Olympics is a great opportunity for us to | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
realise there are a bunch of other sports out there, not only football | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
and it is great and I hope we can bring home more gold medals -- | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
Rafaela Silva. Is it dull that the US basketball team beat everyone? | :16:54. | :16:59. | |
Yes. Have you heard of Adam Peaty? He broke the world record. There was | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
intense, a good swim. A good swim. Michael Phelps is doing well. Great | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
to talk to you. He has won a gold medal already. He last! You are | :17:14. | :17:20. | |
tough! We have to expect good things from him. Anything other than a gold | :17:21. | :17:26. | |
medal is not good enough? For him. I'm beginning to see why you are a | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
dominant nation. Lovely to speak to you. I want to take you to the | :17:31. | :17:37. | |
seaside, well, it is grander than that. Let us wander down. As close | :17:38. | :17:47. | |
as we can. Steady on! We are on Copacabana beach, which churches | :17:48. | :17:54. | |
about four kilometres. There are markers on the way along. Number six | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
is down there, number two is down there. The sailing venue is all the | :18:00. | :18:09. | |
way down the beach, you cannot see it at the moment, but at the far end | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
is Sugarloaf Mountain and over there is the marina where all the sailing | :18:15. | :18:17. | |
is taking place. That is where we are going so surely Robinson can | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
give us an update of what is happening. Day two on the waters and | :18:23. | :18:29. | |
five of the ten sailing fleet are in action. Nick MC is looking to | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
consolidate on yesterday's dominant performance. Bryony Shaw and the | :18:35. | :18:41. | |
world champions Nick Thomson, all need to start making an impact and | :18:42. | :18:50. | |
into the fray, TVs great medal hope, Giles Scott. -- Team GB. The media, | :18:51. | :19:03. | |
thank you when a gold medal, how have you responded to that. It is | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
not the way I think about it personally. I am entering these | :19:09. | :19:11. | |
games are very confident but I am not as a about the feet that will | :19:12. | :19:16. | |
have to be done. These games will be equally as hard if not harder and it | :19:17. | :19:23. | |
is never over until it is over. I wonder how much you want to stop | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
talking about it and is get on with it. It feels like a long time | :19:29. | :19:33. | |
coming. As you get closer, it quickly creeps up on you. It is the | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
time to put all the chat to one time and get that one side and get Giles | :19:41. | :19:45. | |
Scott was denied the chance to represent Britain in 2012 when Ben | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
Ainslie got the slot and went on to win the gold medal. Today was the | :19:50. | :19:55. | |
day that he has been working towards for eight years. Very congested for | :19:56. | :20:02. | |
the men's heavyweight, the fin class gets underway with Greece leading up | :20:03. | :20:10. | |
the pen-macro. That looks like the Danish sailor sailing well. Denmark | :20:11. | :20:17. | |
on the left. Greece taking up the WinWord position. Giles Scott being | :20:18. | :20:26. | |
forced to tack out. He was the guy who was battling with Ben Ainslie in | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
Weymouth and he was the guy who made him angry, if I rightly. Giles has | :20:34. | :20:41. | |
had to tack out -- if I remember rightly. Giles Scott not in the lead | :20:42. | :20:52. | |
but in among the leading pack. Giles Scott is running out of time to get | :20:53. | :20:59. | |
back into that front pack. And he was never able to get back into it. | :21:00. | :21:05. | |
In a race won by the Argentinian, Britain's hope for gold finished | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
17th. I feel like I have been saying this a lot already but this is a | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
very unpredictable venue and four Giles Scott, not the start he would | :21:16. | :21:20. | |
have hoped for but he knows how to bounce back. He changed cells and | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
then dear to get a good start in the second race of the day. He finished | :21:26. | :21:33. | |
fourth and found himself upgraded to third. Super tricky racing and | :21:34. | :21:37. | |
unfortunately for me that showed in the first race. One minute you think | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
you will be in front and then you are not. It was incredibly tricky. | :21:42. | :21:48. | |
About as hard as that course gets, unfortunately. Elsewhere neck | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
Thompson and Alison Young were unable to improve. Thompson filed an | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
ninth and the 15th while young got a 30 and 26. We still have a long way | :21:59. | :22:04. | |
to go. It is a difficult venue. It will only get tougher. Do not change | :22:05. | :22:11. | |
too much, I keep running away, I know I can do it when I am on form. | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
I will try and improve a little bit and see what happens. Slightly | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
better news for Brian Reade Shaw, she clawed way back into the top ten | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
-- go Bryony Shaw. Nick Dempsey was still firing. He extended his lead | :22:27. | :22:34. | |
at the top of the leaderboard. Despite a swim at the top mark of | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
six. It was an angry Dempsey who came ashore after finishing the race | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
14, his overall lead shaved to one point. We understand there was an | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
altercation at the top of the course, talk us through what | :22:51. | :22:59. | |
happened. I think someone caught me. Hopefully, fingers crossed we will | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
go to the jury this evening and protest and hopefully, there is a | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
possibility that I might get points back. We will see. Now, we are | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
halfway through and you are one point clear between yourself and | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
your competitor, how was your confidence? It is great. I am | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
leading the Olympic Games. That is really cool and I'm very happy. The | :23:26. | :23:31. | |
protest was successful and the verdict, his points for the race | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
will be based on an average score. If he continues on current form, | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
that will be a spectacular outcome. A mixed day for neck Dempsey, Giles | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
Scott in touch and other struggling at the end of the second day of | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
sailing, Rio was all was going to be difficult and it is living up to its | :23:51. | :23:58. | |
billing. -- always. It is a cool job speeding along in a boat talking | :23:59. | :24:02. | |
about sailing. IPod I was privileged but surely is enjoying herself and | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
she will be back for a date three of the regatta -- I thought I was | :24:08. | :24:24. | |
privileged. Those in charge of BBC sailing -- Team GB, say there is a | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
good medal chance, we could be celebrating some Team GB medals in | :24:29. | :24:38. | |
the sailing later on. So much information coming in through social | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
media. JoJo says thank you for all the banter. Random page interviews | :24:43. | :24:48. | |
and stalking of locals as well. It is just gentle chitchat! I am happy | :24:49. | :24:56. | |
to watch Dan commentate on Anthony Wall Thompson for the next couple of | :24:57. | :25:03. | |
hours. There he is, can you see him? Can you see the kites? That is the | :25:04. | :25:14. | |
first time we have seen kites. On Anthony Thompson, Dorothy says what | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
is wrong with wearing the same top twice? Rio BO. If he does it a third | :25:20. | :25:29. | |
time, if he is here tomorrow with the same top on, we will have a | :25:30. | :25:30. | |
chat. We are looking for the three things | :25:31. | :25:40. | |
outside the normal headlines of the day have a chat did our attention, | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
if you have seen something today and you would like us to feature on it | :25:44. | :25:52. | |
before we finish, send it through to us. One thing we think will be in | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
there with the Japanese victory over New Zealand, we will go back to | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
rugby sevens. The rugby sevens has been a real highlight today. The one | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
that we have not shown you took place in the same pool as Fiji, USA | :26:07. | :26:13. | |
taking on Brazil, here is your commentary team once again. | :26:14. | :26:20. | |
Host nation Brazil against the United States of America. Clash of | :26:21. | :26:34. | |
the Americas. Brazil were beaten by Fiji in the first round, USA were | :26:35. | :26:37. | |
eaten by Argentina. -- beaten. One of the two trends in the | :26:38. | :26:54. | |
Brazilian side. Daniel comes away with it. His | :26:55. | :27:22. | |
brother knocks on and possession is handed back to the United States and | :27:23. | :27:38. | |
they have a chance. Gareth. Penalty against the United States. | :27:39. | :27:54. | |
There he is, passing the ball. Marvelling at the tackle. Really | :27:55. | :28:21. | |
excellent play from Brazil. Great atmosphere. Best atmosphere of the | :28:22. | :28:39. | |
day. Juliano Fiori wins well. Matt O'Brien from Australia, allowed a | :28:40. | :28:45. | |
certain latitude there on the part of the tackle. 29-macro puts it into | :28:46. | :28:59. | |
the 22, throwing for Brazil -- Lucas Duque. Brazil have the ball 30 yards | :29:00. | :29:06. | |
out. He is now 20 yards out, there is no need to do it. I do not | :29:07. | :29:10. | |
understand when teams are so close that they do that. A lot of running | :29:11. | :29:23. | |
around. Crazy decision. We have not seen this man in action yet. Baker. | :29:24. | :29:37. | |
Absolute flyer. Offside advantage being played. The pass is good. He | :29:38. | :29:45. | |
is going to score the first try of the night and the USA are in the | :29:46. | :29:58. | |
lead. Great try by the USA, but why did Brazil go for the line-out and | :29:59. | :30:02. | |
give them the ball? The ball is guaranteed and the try came from | :30:03. | :30:06. | |
that. They were applying -- playing so well and then decided to do that. | :30:07. | :30:14. | |
Great scorer to be fair by the USA, Niua takes his chance, but when | :30:15. | :30:19. | |
Brazil have the ball, they should keep it and play. | :30:20. | :30:26. | |
Folau Niua will also take the restart. Result don't seem to be too | :30:27. | :30:38. | |
upset at going behind. Niua for Baker to chase, great athleticism. | :30:39. | :30:46. | |
He went miles up in the air. Niua has it back. Ebner. Special teams | :30:47. | :30:56. | |
play with the New England Patriots. Not the current champions. The | :30:57. | :31:03. | |
referee again will not quite allow... We get to see Perry Baker | :31:04. | :31:12. | |
again. Wow. Australian rules, leg up on the shoulder, that is absolutely | :31:13. | :31:19. | |
fantastic. Baker is so quick. He could go into the high jump! They | :31:20. | :31:25. | |
use him on the line-out and also the restart and that amazing. The | :31:26. | :31:34. | |
powerhouse gets a pass away to Ben Pinkelman and Madison Hughes cannot | :31:35. | :31:35. | |
take it. Madison Hughes is there real | :31:36. | :31:52. | |
linchpin in terms of the USA team, the captain of the team. He took a | :31:53. | :31:56. | |
big hit this morning so it's good to see him back, he must be OK for the | :31:57. | :32:02. | |
one player the USA haven't used yet is Carlin Isles who I think is the | :32:03. | :32:06. | |
fastest man the tournament so I hope we see him at some stage. Do you | :32:07. | :32:11. | |
think because of the physique of Perry Baker that they might not want | :32:12. | :32:19. | |
two leggy flyers out there? There is Nate Ebner, nothing leggy or | :32:20. | :32:26. | |
vulnerable about him! They started with Chris Wyles who we all know, | :32:27. | :32:33. | |
plays at Saracens, in the centre. I think it is like for like, you have | :32:34. | :32:39. | |
to play Baker or Isles and I hope they give Isles ago today. It has | :32:40. | :32:47. | |
come away but knocked on by Brazil. One minute to go in this first half. | :32:48. | :32:57. | |
It is the smaller teams today, Brazil and Spain and Japan | :32:58. | :33:03. | |
especially can take a bow because all 12 teams have already added | :33:04. | :33:07. | |
hugely to this Olympic men's seven aside tournament. | :33:08. | :33:13. | |
Good football skills from Lucas Duque. Not such good handling skills | :33:14. | :33:25. | |
and a simple lock on. A last chance for America. It is the yellow, | :33:26. | :33:32. | |
anything, throwing the ball away disrespectfully and you are off for | :33:33. | :33:34. | |
two minutes. Duque will be disappointed with | :33:35. | :33:49. | |
that, he did not throw it that far away. Perry Baker is waiting, will | :33:50. | :33:55. | |
he have a chance? They go long and said to Ben Pinkelman. He goes | :33:56. | :34:02. | |
ruggedly for the corner and now it is coming the way of Baker. Nate | :34:03. | :34:11. | |
Ebner does not need him. He scores. He is a unit. I was watching him in | :34:12. | :34:21. | |
the gym the other day and he is absolutely huge. I trust you were | :34:22. | :34:28. | |
out lifting him! He is so powerful. You need players like this in the | :34:29. | :34:32. | |
game, a balance between the pace and power we have seen from the South | :34:33. | :34:38. | |
African and Argentinian forward and Ebner is right up there. Great to | :34:39. | :34:41. | |
see these NFL players coming into the seven aside game. Drawn by the | :34:42. | :34:47. | |
Olympics. At half-time, 14-0. Up goes Perry Baker against an even | :34:48. | :35:05. | |
higher this time with a bit of an assist. He seems quite happy at | :35:06. | :35:13. | |
altitude. That is a terrific handoff by Pinkelman and not a bad release | :35:14. | :35:21. | |
to Ebner either. He seems to have taken to rugby union without too | :35:22. | :35:25. | |
many problems. Chris Wyles should be clear but that is a fabulous tackle | :35:26. | :35:31. | |
on him and it is knocked on by Niua. The tackle from Martin Schaefer. | :35:32. | :35:38. | |
Sorry, it wasn't him, it was Felipe Sancery, one of the twins. Great | :35:39. | :35:47. | |
action here as Pinkelman, the big man taking it forward. Martin | :35:48. | :35:57. | |
Schaefer comes on for Brazil. Duque awaits his return. Eight seconds to | :35:58. | :36:01. | |
go. Back on any moment now. Six man Brazil for the moment. Duque | :36:02. | :36:14. | |
will have to wait for the next interruption. | :36:15. | :36:23. | |
Getting a player yellow carded in this game, you have absolutely no | :36:24. | :36:32. | |
chance. It is discipline in your players, especially in the knockout | :36:33. | :36:37. | |
players, it is absolutely crucial. -- the knockout games. | :36:38. | :36:42. | |
Not a lot on out wide because they only have six. They have done pretty | :36:43. | :36:53. | |
well. Coming out to the 22. They have got themselves a penalty and | :36:54. | :36:55. | |
now Duque will return. Seven against seven again. Duque | :36:56. | :37:08. | |
back on which is good to see. Brazil really have been a credit to the | :37:09. | :37:14. | |
tournament. They don't have the experience of the American team but | :37:15. | :37:20. | |
like this morning against Fiji, they have played very well. Schaefer in | :37:21. | :37:30. | |
the line-out and Gustavo Albuquerque has also come on. I have noticed | :37:31. | :37:36. | |
that Perry Baker is coming off. Carlin Isles is on. I hope he gets | :37:37. | :37:45. | |
the ball. Five minutes to go. Again, Brazil cannot win their own | :37:46. | :37:51. | |
line-out. Kicking for Dutch from the penalty has worked against them. | :37:52. | :37:57. | |
Niua, Carlin Isles is right on the other side of the field but they are | :37:58. | :38:00. | |
not going there yet because Winkleman was almost away but he | :38:01. | :38:10. | |
knocks on. -- Pinkelman. The Americans are showing a certain | :38:11. | :38:13. | |
naivete which I'm surprised about with them being coached by Mike | :38:14. | :38:18. | |
Friday. They came to the short side where there were two Brazilian | :38:19. | :38:24. | |
players. On the left side, four American players and on the end of | :38:25. | :38:34. | |
the line was Carlin Isles. It is simple reading of the game. Zack | :38:35. | :38:37. | |
Test is on for the USA. Brazil give away a free kick. Not a | :38:38. | :38:58. | |
penalty. Let's get on with it quickly, says | :38:59. | :39:19. | |
the referee. Niua takes it. Did Ebner obstruct? Nearly a first | :39:20. | :39:24. | |
chance to have a look at Carlin Isles. Brazil come away with it and | :39:25. | :39:35. | |
the crowd bursts into life. Daniel Sancery. Stefano Giantorno. Duque. | :39:36. | :39:48. | |
Albuquerque. Schaefer. Excellent work by the new player and that is a | :39:49. | :39:51. | |
knock on. The Stadium has erupted. There is | :39:52. | :40:02. | |
going to be... A yellow I think. Nate Ebner is in the bin. Was there | :40:03. | :40:34. | |
a knock on? I wasn't sure. I'm looking down, this is Albuquerque | :40:35. | :40:40. | |
who does not looked in great shape. I was not sure what the yellow card | :40:41. | :40:45. | |
was for. Ebner, the redeye and player. -- gridiron player. It was a | :40:46. | :40:54. | |
late hit. In he comes. I think that's a good call. A bit | :40:55. | :41:02. | |
disappointed with Ebner, it was a bit of a cheap shot and he didn't | :41:03. | :41:07. | |
need to do it. And you can't play this game with six against seven saw | :41:08. | :41:16. | |
a big chance for Brazil. Albuquerque who seems to have recovered but they | :41:17. | :41:24. | |
have lost it. A chance lost. I really want to see Brazil score at | :41:25. | :41:31. | |
try. The smaller side have all had remarkable bays and they have a | :41:32. | :41:36. | |
couple of minutes with six against seven. Don't panic, hold the ball | :41:37. | :41:39. | |
and recycle and they have good enough players to score against this | :41:40. | :41:46. | |
United States team. It has been a disjointed display from America who | :41:47. | :41:51. | |
are one of the outside favourite for the tournament. You want to see | :41:52. | :41:55. | |
Brazil score, I would like to see the Carlin Isles have a run at full | :41:56. | :42:05. | |
tilt. I think he is under ten. I agree, I would like to see him. He | :42:06. | :42:10. | |
is on the six-man team at the moment. He is on the outside. Maka | :42:11. | :42:22. | |
Unufe is held down, they still have a chance. This way, not that way! | :42:23. | :42:35. | |
The barrelling power of Danny Barrett. Duque comes away with it. | :42:36. | :42:39. | |
Now Carlin Isles seems to be clutching his hamstring having gone | :42:40. | :42:44. | |
up in support. I think he is all right. Perhaps he is asking for the | :42:45. | :42:53. | |
ball. He was flying. Just give him it and it was a run in. Another one | :42:54. | :42:56. | |
in the bin. America with the extra man should be | :42:57. | :43:03. | |
able to work the overlap. Barrett. It has all gone a little bit scrappy | :43:04. | :43:28. | |
which is disappointing for the game. It has become a little bit frenetic. | :43:29. | :43:33. | |
Sevens is a very simple game, get the ball and keep it, recycle it, | :43:34. | :43:37. | |
play with your head up and find space. This is another Duque in the | :43:38. | :43:48. | |
bin. We have had Moises and now this is Lucas. There is a lot of space | :43:49. | :44:04. | |
when it is six against six. Go on, did it to Isles, go on. Outside, | :44:05. | :44:10. | |
outside and that is what Carlin Isles is all about. He is a | :44:11. | :44:24. | |
wonderful player. You got your wish. He is gas! If I was the Americans, I | :44:25. | :44:35. | |
would be getting back to see if we could get another try. You can have | :44:36. | :44:40. | |
your wish now, come on, Brazil, you can score to see if you can raise | :44:41. | :44:45. | |
what roof there isn't in this stadium. I think your book to give | :44:46. | :44:51. | |
it a big shot in these big games. I would be very to play Carlin Isles | :44:52. | :44:55. | |
in the starting team along with Perry Baker, probably moving Chris | :44:56. | :45:02. | |
Wyles to play alongside Madison Hughes. That would be my back | :45:03. | :45:07. | |
division, and absolutely go for it. Albuquerque takes the pass. | :45:08. | :45:16. | |
The siren goes. The next page is the end. Let us go from here. We have | :45:17. | :45:30. | |
seen a little bit of 22-macro, a little bit of everyone. I do not | :45:31. | :45:35. | |
know why we are bothering, it is a penalty # row Carlin Isles?. Let us | :45:36. | :45:59. | |
go -- Carlin Isles?. That is it. It can only be an American try now. Out | :46:00. | :46:12. | |
on the far side. Off we go. He is going to complete the scoring | :46:13. | :46:17. | |
tonight and the USC march into tomorrow with a win under their | :46:18. | :46:25. | |
belts. -- USA. That was a shame for Brazil. Maka Unufe scored. Maka | :46:26. | :46:37. | |
Unufe, great athlete. There are some athletes in the USA team who were a | :46:38. | :46:42. | |
surprise but they will be disappointed, they were not quite in | :46:43. | :46:46. | |
their stride, they do not quite know their best start in seven at the | :46:47. | :46:50. | |
moment, but at least the win is there. The USA win by 26-0. How do | :46:51. | :46:56. | |
think your plane at the moment as 18? A lot of things we can do | :46:57. | :47:04. | |
better, that is the game of sevens. -- high do you think you are playing | :47:05. | :47:12. | |
at the moment as a team? Things could have gone better. I got a | :47:13. | :47:16. | |
yellow card, that was terrible. At the end of the day, we got the job | :47:17. | :47:21. | |
done. I was talking to someone earlier and said that your website | :47:22. | :47:27. | |
normally get 2000 heads away, you have had 9 million hits in the last | :47:28. | :47:31. | |
24 hours, a lot of people are interested -- hits per week. | :47:32. | :47:39. | |
Hopefully we are putting on a show and hopefully guys would like to get | :47:40. | :47:45. | |
involved. It is a great game. Does that put on the pressure? I do not | :47:46. | :47:52. | |
know. We are trying to do one job at a time. Ultimately we are here for | :47:53. | :47:56. | |
each other and as hard as we have worked, the men who have worked with | :47:57. | :48:01. | |
us, ultimately that is what we are here for. Thank you. Nate Ebner has | :48:02. | :48:14. | |
a fascinating back story. He played the at college in America and in his | :48:15. | :48:17. | |
final year he started playing American food all. He then went to | :48:18. | :48:22. | |
the New England Patriots, one the Super Bowl and he is currently on a | :48:23. | :48:26. | |
leave of absence to play rug the severance -- football. That shows | :48:27. | :48:32. | |
you what the Olympics means. This guy has won everything -- rugby | :48:33. | :48:48. | |
sevens. Matthew McConaughey was there today. He is at the beach | :48:49. | :48:52. | |
volleyball tonight and we will be there later. Hope fully we can show | :48:53. | :48:57. | |
you what is happening there now. -- hopefully. Hopefully they will turn | :48:58. | :49:04. | |
on the lights. It looks a bit sinister. We will bring you some of | :49:05. | :49:12. | |
that darkness later. It could be the worst hour of television and you | :49:13. | :49:17. | |
have ever seen. We are on until two o'clock in the morning and I think | :49:18. | :49:20. | |
it is about time we brought you some headlines. Matthew McConaughey would | :49:21. | :49:30. | |
like to know that team USA defended the team gymnastics title helped in | :49:31. | :49:35. | |
the all-round favourite who was unbelievable. Tim -- Team GB | :49:36. | :49:42. | |
finished in fifth place. Also fifth place for Tania Couch and Lois | :49:43. | :49:47. | |
Toulson in the synchronised diving. It went down to the last I've but | :49:48. | :49:51. | |
China took the gold, Team GB down in fifth place. Big win for Johanna | :49:52. | :50:00. | |
Konta in the tennis. Serena Williams went out. The draw is opening up for | :50:01. | :50:05. | |
Johanna Konta who will take on Angelique kerb -- Angelique Kerber. | :50:06. | :50:15. | |
Andy Murray is also through. Good day for Katherine Grainger who is on | :50:16. | :50:18. | |
course to win a fifth Olympic medal. Her and her partner but their place | :50:19. | :50:26. | |
in the finals. -- booked their place. Lots of rugby. Two wins today | :50:27. | :50:33. | |
for Team GB including one over Japan. Japan earlier shot New | :50:34. | :50:39. | |
Zealand, the favourites for the title by beating them earlier -- | :50:40. | :50:47. | |
shop at. On BBC One, you can watch the last few left in the | :50:48. | :50:52. | |
weightlifting. That is live on BBC One the moment. -- lifts. We promise | :50:53. | :51:01. | |
you we would tell you what was happening with the diving. If you | :51:02. | :51:05. | |
are watching the diving earlier, there were lots of people asking | :51:06. | :51:10. | |
about why the water was green. Yesterday when Tom Daley and Daniel | :51:11. | :51:15. | |
Goodfellow were in their, it was blue. The pool next to it was still | :51:16. | :51:20. | |
blue but the diving pool was a weird cucumber green. Hopefully we have a | :51:21. | :51:24. | |
picture. There has been an official statement. They say they have tested | :51:25. | :51:34. | |
the water and it is safe, which I suppose is the most important thing. | :51:35. | :51:39. | |
They have no explanation as to why it is green. I think we all could | :51:40. | :51:44. | |
perhaps come up with an explanation but we will not go there. Thank you | :51:45. | :51:51. | |
for your suggestions. A remarkable number of swimming pool technicians | :51:52. | :51:55. | |
who are viewers and we appreciate that. Some of your other texts and | :51:56. | :52:07. | |
tweets, the hashtag is Rio 2016. Someone is asking about the beach | :52:08. | :52:14. | |
volleyball. Coming up shortly. Calum Waters asking about the Green diving | :52:15. | :52:20. | |
pool. Another tweet says can you do they watch run into the sea. No. | :52:21. | :52:26. | |
Another one after they can ask for my glasses in the Atlantic? We have | :52:27. | :52:32. | |
a few members of the crew who could sort that out. Although I mistakenly | :52:33. | :52:37. | |
said about 20 minutes ago that there was a BBC is sailing team, I meant | :52:38. | :52:43. | |
Team GB, but thank you for all of you who sent in your suggestions for | :52:44. | :52:51. | |
who would be in a BBC sailing team, ... | :52:52. | :53:02. | |
Keep sending your tweets and messages. We will bring you some | :53:03. | :53:14. | |
boxing now. Yesterday you may have seen Paddy Barnes who lost yesterday | :53:15. | :53:20. | |
and today we will concentrate on Danny Joyce who is trying to get a | :53:21. | :53:28. | |
place in the lightweight. He is taking on the contender from | :53:29. | :53:32. | |
Azerbaijan and our commentary comes from Richie Woodhall and Ron | :53:33. | :53:45. | |
McIntosh. Into the third and final round and the man in red needs a | :53:46. | :53:52. | |
huge final round. He is trailing by two points. He needs a 10-8 round to | :53:53. | :54:05. | |
get back to parity from judges a and C. Albert Selimov is in a good | :54:06. | :54:18. | |
position. It is not impossible here for David Joyce. Albert Selimov | :54:19. | :54:23. | |
knows he is in front. Cheeky left uppercut from Albert Selimov. It is | :54:24. | :54:28. | |
a game to engage. That is the problem for David Joyce. If he comes | :54:29. | :54:32. | |
forward, gives them a chance to land that right hand over the top. He is | :54:33. | :54:39. | |
moving away. Big impact on the target. The target moving away. He | :54:40. | :54:47. | |
needs him to come forward. Wonderful corkscrew left. Albert Selimov, not | :54:48. | :54:54. | |
much on these punches. Keep them ticking over. Piling up the points. | :54:55. | :55:00. | |
Leaving a favourable impression in the mind of the judges. Clever | :55:01. | :55:05. | |
boxer. What he does is he make sure he wins the first round and if he | :55:06. | :55:09. | |
does that, your partner has got to chase. It is a pattern, going into | :55:10. | :55:16. | |
the third round, he is ahead and David Joyce has to chase and it is | :55:17. | :55:24. | |
difficult. David Joyce, the three-time reigning European | :55:25. | :55:30. | |
Championship gold medallist. Got the title in 2014, 2008 and 2009, the | :55:31. | :55:40. | |
seven time reigning Irish champion. The iconic figure of Albert Selimov | :55:41. | :55:49. | |
is trailing heavily. His punches are repelled. Does not look as though he | :55:50. | :55:53. | |
will produce the 10-8 round that he needs to get back on a level. That | :55:54. | :56:01. | |
was a good right hand by the man in red. That is where David Joyce has | :56:02. | :56:06. | |
to keep it. Keep him on the ropes. Because he is so clever, he knows it | :56:07. | :56:11. | |
is a danger area. It is rare he makes those mistakes, he has made it | :56:12. | :56:17. | |
now, his feet are quite square. He was fighting off the ropes and he is | :56:18. | :56:23. | |
whereupon. Still dangerous. He landed a great shot. That is where | :56:24. | :56:32. | |
David Joyce has to keep them, it is the only place in his opinion where | :56:33. | :56:37. | |
he can land a big shot and if he keeps his feet square, Albert | :56:38. | :56:41. | |
Selimov, when he comes forward, he has a chance, David Joyce. He needs | :56:42. | :56:45. | |
the knockout punch now against the man who was reluctant to engage. | :56:46. | :56:52. | |
David Oliver Joyce running out of time. He is chasing this elusive | :56:53. | :56:57. | |
figure around the boxing ring and cannot tag him cleanly. | :56:58. | :57:04. | |
There is the Bell to conclude three rounds of boxing in this lightweight | :57:05. | :57:13. | |
division. Second preliminary round action. One suspects it is this man | :57:14. | :57:20. | |
who has opened his Olympic account here in Rio during this contest and | :57:21. | :57:23. | |
will prevail and advance at the expense of David Oliver Joyce. You | :57:24. | :57:28. | |
have to give it David Joyce credit for the effort he put in in the last | :57:29. | :57:33. | |
round. He was chasing Albert Selimov all the way, great left uppercut | :57:34. | :57:38. | |
from Albert Selimov. Clever man on the back foot, making his opponent | :57:39. | :57:45. | |
launch the attacks, brings him on two shots, I think David Joyce had | :57:46. | :57:49. | |
some success, he caught him several times. Such a hard man to pin down | :57:50. | :57:55. | |
because he knows he is in front, he is protecting a lead, very | :57:56. | :57:58. | |
experienced and hard to beat in that position. | :57:59. | :58:11. | |
Ladies and gentlemen, the winner by unanimous decision... In the blue | :58:12. | :58:32. | |
corner... Albert Selimov! So Albert Selimov gets his Olympic campaign | :58:33. | :58:37. | |
underway with a victory here in Rio 2016. He is through to the | :58:38. | :58:40. | |
quarterfinal stage, what about we have in prospect there because he | :58:41. | :58:50. | |
will be squaring off against the French competitor, Sofiane Oumiha | :58:51. | :59:01. | |
and they have a bit of history. It was not enough for David Joyce to | :59:02. | :59:07. | |
close the two deficit he faced. Disappointment for David Joyce. Not | :59:08. | :59:12. | |
a good time for the Irish boxers. Boxing is one of those sports which | :59:13. | :59:15. | |
is all on every single day of these games. It is going to be a busy few | :59:16. | :59:22. | |
weeks for Ron McIntosh and Richie were all. We will bring you as much | :59:23. | :59:26. | |
as we can. There are some fantastic out as we give in to the later | :59:27. | :59:31. | |
rounds. A couple more messages. We had a romantic couple who | :59:32. | :59:36. | |
disappeared when we were going to speak to them. James would like to | :59:37. | :59:40. | |
know if it is the same couple in the same spot from yesterday. It is not. | :59:41. | :59:46. | |
There is no flask involved and was a flask yesterday. This is the spot, | :59:47. | :59:51. | |
if you're watching for the first time, this is the chemin's corner | :59:52. | :59:56. | |
were normally there are people fishing into the Atlantic but | :59:57. | :59:58. | |
tonight, no one is here. Maybe Tuesday is not fishing night. We are | :59:59. | :00:02. | |
here for a couple of weeks. Kane has asked, is it wrong or | :00:03. | :00:13. | |
strange that my 14-year-old is not watching late the Olympics? No, it's | :00:14. | :00:21. | |
not. We're going to take you now to the beach volleyball. Let's explain | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
how this works as we go down the other rent of Copacabana. We are | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
going to show you the action from court EE. So will be of Iran. The | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
top two from each pool -- the other end. This is pool E, which has | :00:37. | :00:44. | |
Switzerland, Canada, Netherlands and Germany ended. We are going to watch | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
Germany take on the Dutch. Your commentator is Brit hock of | :00:47. | :00:59. | |
our. Beach volleyball live on BBC Four. That has drifted quite height | :01:00. | :01:08. | |
to the net. She took care of that with authority. | :01:09. | :01:20. | |
Great block. Really aggressive set by Borger. Didn't seem like Buthe | :01:21. | :02:00. | |
quite got her feet to the ball. Borger got stuck at the net. She got | :02:01. | :02:34. | |
herself a blog in that situation. We are tied at 3-3. | :02:35. | :02:43. | |
Ball goes long. We switch at 4-3. Borger and Buthe of Germany, Germany | :02:44. | :02:59. | |
also has another team here in the Olympics. Moreover quick, the fourth | :03:00. | :03:00. | |
seed. -- Laura Ludwick. Chicken wing off the shoulder by | :03:01. | :03:17. | |
Borger. She's got it! Having fun with that. You can deal with the | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
entire body, feet included. You can see that she covered that just off | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
the shoulder. What a play, good wherewithal, good body control, do | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
what you can. Great job by Carla Borger. | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
The Netherlands and Germany are such a great matchup. Because both | :03:39. | :03:54. | |
federations, both teams here are Rick stream Rhys Gill is. They do so | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
many repetitions. Their ball control and settings girls are bar none. | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
Some of the best in the world. -- setting skills. Very, very | :04:07. | :04:14. | |
disciplined. Even though we saw few sets that drifted a little bit tight | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
here early in this match. They are very, very well trained. | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
Oh, just missed! Just missed by der Vlist. -- van der Vlist. Uses the | :04:24. | :04:40. | |
very ends of her fingers for that ball. In beach volleyball you not | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
allowed to open hand tip, as you are in indoor. No soft contact can come | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
off the hand. It must be an open hand the tag. Spin ball or a pokey, | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
but van der Vlist did on that last play, she was able to create a solid | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
surface with her fingertips. Sophie Karakasevic misses Long. | :05:00. | :05:22. | |
Inset number one she was trying to find her | :05:23. | :05:34. | |
Great cover by Borger. After van der Vlist got that in the block. Carla | :05:35. | :05:56. | |
puts it away. To know exactly where that net is. | :05:57. | :06:26. | |
And without a net violation, was able to go off the hands of van der | :06:27. | :06:39. | |
Vlist. Borger is there. And van der Vlist gets heard this time. -- gets | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
her. Short line short by Buthe. -- short | :06:44. | :07:08. | |
line shot by Buthe. North Sea hammering is van der Vlist. Sophie | :07:09. | :07:40. | |
van Gestel put up such a pretty set. It is a difficult skill to hand set, | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
and she does it every time. The rules on the beach or a little bit | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
tighter than that of indoor. The ball can have a little to no spin at | :07:50. | :07:58. | |
all. Many players shy away from it. Cut shot, there by Buthe. | :07:59. | :08:08. | |
Van der Vlist throws it back. Van Gestel didn't quite get balanced up | :08:09. | :08:51. | |
for that Highline shot. Buthe of Germany, Germany leads 12-9 as we go | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
to the technical time-out. Here in the first set of pool E, Germany | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
versus the level loans. -- the Netherlands. | :09:04. | :09:48. | |
Such beautiful aerial shots of the western edge of Copacabana Beach in | :09:49. | :09:55. | |
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Van der Vlist gets the outside part | :09:56. | :10:07. | |
of the line. Germany has been consistently going after van der | :10:08. | :10:09. | |
Vlist. There is that jump serve from Sophie | :10:10. | :10:31. | |
van Gestel, she just had to warm it up. The serve cut the lead to won. | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
-- cuts the lead to one. Van Gestel has a bit of an uncouth | :10:37. | :10:49. | |
arm swing and hand on the ball. What a serve! And we are all tied up at | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
12. Time-out Germany. It doesn't get more beautiful than | :10:54. | :11:49. | |
that. What a venue, what a city. The lights are bright. He at the Rio | :11:50. | :11:57. | |
2016 Olympic Games. We are in a set number one. Van Gestel serving for | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
the Netherlands. Just misses Long, good time-out by | :12:02. | :12:12. | |
Germany. A lot of times when it jumps, whoever gets on a roll, you | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
have got to stop their flow, stop their rhythm. | :12:16. | :12:24. | |
Cut shot catches the top of the tape but falls in in time. | :12:25. | :12:37. | |
Sophie van Gestel hammering, she is a wiry player. | :12:38. | :13:06. | |
Great ball by Buthe. And we switch sides. | :13:07. | :13:37. | |
It's clear that Germany has been going after van der Vlist with their | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
serving. And she is trying to make them | :13:43. | :13:53. | |
change their game plan with that swing. What a set! By Sophie van | :13:54. | :14:03. | |
Gestel. Put it right in her wheelhouse from the in-line. Van der | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
Vlist can't believe it herself. Real smooth high line ball by Britta | :14:08. | :14:23. | |
Buthe. The last second, throws that some | :14:24. | :14:38. | |
down, those wrists away. Short serve. Not sure if van der Vlist was | :14:39. | :14:52. | |
expecting a tempo ball from van Gestel, or if that was just a | :14:53. | :14:54. | |
slip-up. Highlight in by Karla Borger, and | :14:55. | :15:17. | |
she has been invited back into the match. | :15:18. | :16:20. | |
The athletes welcomed back to the court. Germany leads 17-15 over | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
Holland. Ace serve down the middle. Not a lot of pace on that ball. | :16:27. | :16:37. | |
Sometimes it just mesmerises you. Ace serve right back by Jantine van | :16:38. | :17:26. | |
der Vlist. Let serves are illegal. -- legal, even though it seems | :17:27. | :17:39. | |
fairly disruptive. Back on Borger. Buthe puts it away. Hammering down | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
the line. Borger Mrs -- misses long. We are at | :17:44. | :17:52. | |
19-18, set to number one. Van Gestel goes back to her jump top | :17:53. | :18:32. | |
spin. She has three errors on that, but two aces. | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
Back on Buthe. Sophie van Gestel was there. Van der Vlist almost had it | :18:38. | :19:11. | |
over, but it went into the antenna. It gave Borger and Buthe set number | :19:12. | :19:23. | |
one, 20 1-19. Great back and forth by these two teams, well disciplined | :19:24. | :19:29. | |
teams. Very skilled, very athletic. It will be interesting to see how | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
this plays out as we can clearly see that the German team, their thought | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
was to go after van der Vlist. We start of the second set. Van | :19:40. | :20:36. | |
Gestel still working with her jump top spin. Just misses. | :20:37. | :20:47. | |
Van der Vlist puts it away down the middle. | :20:48. | :21:12. | |
Buthe going rest away. She has fallen in love with that line ball. | :21:13. | :21:26. | |
Sometimes athletes just have a certain arm slot that is more | :21:27. | :21:36. | |
comfortable. And they either are crossbody or wrist away type of | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
athletes, and sometimes that predicates their play. Just the | :21:42. | :21:48. | |
biomechanics on what feels best on their strong... Sophie van Gestel | :21:49. | :22:00. | |
plays it short this time. She knows that once she gets that role in, | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
Germany could be in trouble. Buthe started celebrating right away | :22:05. | :22:20. | |
when she relies that that ball was out of bounds, even from that angle | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
you couldn't quite tell, but just hit the antenna. | :22:25. | :22:42. | |
Van der Vlist, she scores a very high percentage, when she passes the | :22:43. | :22:52. | |
ball to the in-line, causing Sophie van Gestel to get on her horse and | :22:53. | :23:01. | |
bump set that to the net. It works for them. | :23:02. | :23:11. | |
At least the net has scored a point from each side. It usually is quite | :23:12. | :23:21. | |
even on those ace triples, or the denies, I guess. | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
There are only small holes in Borger- Buthe's defence, and she | :23:29. | :23:52. | |
found it. What defence by van Gestel. And | :23:53. | :24:05. | |
Karla Borger with the beautiful cut shot. German fans love it. | :24:06. | :24:23. | |
Ace serve. It doesn't get better than that. Karla Borger wanting to | :24:24. | :24:37. | |
get things fired up here. A little side spin on that sucker. | :24:38. | :24:56. | |
The Germans score again. They are on a run. Really great aggressive set. | :24:57. | :25:14. | |
Calm play by Buthe, setting Borger up for the kill. Time Netherlands. | :25:15. | :26:09. | |
Karla Borger still serving here at set number two, Germany lead 8-4 | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
against the Netherlands. Van der Vlist crashing down the | :26:15. | :26:33. | |
line. Borger was there, but couldn't control it. Karla Borger and Britta | :26:34. | :26:43. | |
Buthe have won gold, two silvers and three bronze on the tour, and in | :26:44. | :26:51. | |
2013 they took silver in the World Championships. | :26:52. | :27:21. | |
Just over Britain Buthe was Sophie van Gestel. The players come out of | :27:22. | :27:31. | |
the middle, it eliminates some angles, but it creates others. You | :27:32. | :27:40. | |
usually see choppy balls out of the middle, but going out to the pin, it | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
allows more available, strong attack. | :27:46. | :27:58. | |
Britain Buthe set that ball just a bit too tight. And Germany only | :27:59. | :28:19. | |
leads by one now. Time-out by Germany. | :28:20. | :29:26. | |
Van Gestel got really long with that arm swing. Tight and compact, | :29:27. | :30:05. | |
sailing it Lawell. -- sailing get along. -- sailing it Lawell. Good | :30:06. | :30:20. | |
cover by Karla Borger. Van Gestel is there. Swinging away, catches the | :30:21. | :30:25. | |
top of the tape. How about it was next | :30:26. | :30:32. | |
how about that?! All sides scrambling, getting dirty. Covering. | :30:33. | :30:47. | |
That is what was impressive. And then Britta but seemed to be a | :30:48. | :30:50. | |
little bit of balance to set that ball and decided, you know what, I'm | :30:51. | :30:55. | |
going to get rid of it, and that is a good place for that. Germany leads | :30:56. | :31:03. | |
12-8 here in set number two. Back on van der Vlist. | :31:04. | :31:09. | |
Buthe, shoulders came off the net on that block, we take a technical | :31:10. | :31:21. | |
time-out. Borger and Buthe lead. Van der Vlist and van Gestel here in set | :31:22. | :31:23. | |
number two. So smooth by Karla Borger. The | :31:24. | :32:38. | |
Netherlands have shifted their game plan a little bit. They started the | :32:39. | :32:42. | |
first set and a half going after Britta Buthe. | :32:43. | :32:53. | |
Left, left, was the call from Sophie van Gestel. A pokey does the job for | :32:54. | :33:04. | |
the Netherlands. 3-point lead to Germany. Here in the second set. | :33:05. | :33:13. | |
Both Holland teams trained in a beautiful island off the coast here. | :33:14. | :33:38. | |
Leading into the Olympics. Hammering Sophie van Gestel. Needing to get | :33:39. | :33:45. | |
that point finished. Little touch and go into the block. They cover, a | :33:46. | :33:54. | |
lot of block touches and covering. Van Gestel said, enough. | :33:55. | :34:11. | |
Van der Vlist swaps the first attempt. Borger sharpens up her | :34:12. | :34:19. | |
blade on this card. Karla Borger scoring sharp. Scoring | :34:20. | :34:25. | |
high, scoring strong. Great pressure management by the | :34:26. | :35:12. | |
Germans. What a short serve. Borger is there. | :35:13. | :35:28. | |
Off the hands of van Gestel, excuse me, van der Vlist. | :35:29. | :35:37. | |
You see her get up after that date, and almost stand straight up, it | :35:38. | :35:47. | |
takes a huge pause -- that date. She takes those explosive last use that | :35:48. | :35:49. | |
into the attack -- that dig. Van der Vlist starts that play off | :35:50. | :36:00. | |
in a difficult position. That was the past that she needed. | :36:01. | :36:24. | |
In order to keep everything moving forward -- pass. | :36:25. | :36:30. | |
Like anything, it's easier to step forward than is back. | :36:31. | :36:50. | |
Karla and Britain are having fun with that ball, pressing into some | :36:51. | :37:01. | |
set plays -- Karla and Britta. 19-30 in the second set. Van Gestel misses | :37:02. | :37:08. | |
wide. Sometimes it is easier to press into more high risk plays, | :37:09. | :37:15. | |
lower sets, tempos sets, spreading it to the pin, when you are in a | :37:16. | :37:19. | |
comfortable situation with a big lead. | :37:20. | :37:25. | |
A twisty wrist on that. 14-20, six point lead by Germany, second match. | :37:26. | :37:44. | |
Germany lets that one go. But we'll take the win. Leaving van Gestel and | :37:45. | :38:02. | |
van der Vlist of the Netherlands 21-19, 20 1-14, here in Rio de | :38:03. | :38:06. | |
Janeiro, Copacabana Beach, in front of a very lively crowd. | :38:07. | :38:14. | |
Big win for Germany in the beach volleyball, that goes on throughout | :38:15. | :38:31. | |
the night. Look at that little kid! Can I have a picture with the | :38:32. | :38:35. | |
winners? Thank you very much! Signed the ball. Maybe he was supporting | :38:36. | :38:43. | |
the Dutch! Matthew McConaghy, the Hollywood actor, if you like | :38:44. | :38:46. | |
sporting superstars he is at the beach volleyball, I'm sure he is | :38:47. | :38:50. | |
enjoying himself down there. That goes into the wee small hours here | :38:51. | :38:54. | |
in Rio. You can continue to watch that on the website via the BBC is | :38:55. | :38:58. | |
bought up, which is a very good way to fight up to 24 the live streams | :38:59. | :39:04. | |
depending on the time of day. -- to find up to 24 live streams. There is | :39:05. | :39:08. | |
the match statistics if you'd like to have a basil at the beach | :39:09. | :39:10. | |
volleyball. -- a dazzle. 2-0 was the final score. We are | :39:11. | :39:22. | |
nearly at the end of our time here on BBC Four. We have around 20 | :39:23. | :39:26. | |
minutes left. We're going to show you some hockey. It might have some | :39:27. | :39:31. | |
significance the Team GB, who play Australia tomorrow. Let me show you | :39:32. | :39:35. | |
the pool, this is Paul A for the men's hockey. We showed you earlier | :39:36. | :39:40. | |
that Great Britain beat Brazil by a whopping 9-1, and goal difference | :39:41. | :39:45. | |
could well be aborted. The game we're going to show the -- could be | :39:46. | :39:52. | |
important. This is Belgium, they are one goal up. Australia are one of | :39:53. | :40:01. | |
the big favourite. It has not been a brilliant game for them. They are | :40:02. | :40:05. | |
currently behind in this game. We will join it live. Our commentator | :40:06. | :40:13. | |
is Aaron Murray. This is Belgium against Australia. We are in the | :40:14. | :40:17. | |
final period, and the Belgians lead 1-0. | :40:18. | :40:28. | |
COMMENTATOR: They know how to wind the clock down. They'll do this, | :40:29. | :40:36. | |
they'll play small passes. Just keep the ball out of harm's way like | :40:37. | :40:41. | |
that. No harm in shooting the ballpark the halfway line, even if | :40:42. | :40:45. | |
it gives the ball back to Australia, because Australia can't score from | :40:46. | :40:50. | |
their side of the Midway line. Shane McLeod, the head coach of Belgium, | :40:51. | :40:55. | |
he won a single, of course. He won't think that is enough to beat | :40:56. | :40:58. | |
Australia, but they will not gamble, they will not do any high risk plays | :40:59. | :41:03. | |
or moves, because they do not want to get equalised. They will move it | :41:04. | :41:10. | |
around the perimeter, keep things simple, see if they can find a theme | :41:11. | :41:16. | |
against Australia, but certainly not gambling, no high risk passes. A | :41:17. | :41:23. | |
good run away by Dawson. Dawson to turn the past. He races back to try | :41:24. | :41:31. | |
and take the ball away from Turner. Turn eight bouncing around denier. | :41:32. | :41:37. | |
Turner will win a free ball -- bouncing around. | :41:38. | :41:45. | |
Turner is arguing with the umpire John Wright, John Wright has four | :41:46. | :41:51. | |
World Cups under his belt, five Olympics, he knows what he is doing, | :41:52. | :41:56. | |
and he says it is a penalty corner. Let's look back. | :41:57. | :42:10. | |
So, Belgium, they were trying to do the simple things well. They are in | :42:11. | :42:16. | |
the offensive zones, moving the ball around, it was excellent play by the | :42:17. | :42:21. | |
youngster Dawson, he intercepts the pass, send it down, now they have a | :42:22. | :42:26. | |
penalty corner. The wire with the injected. -- while. You could smell | :42:27. | :42:36. | |
it, it was that close, supreme confidence but it goes wide, the | :42:37. | :42:40. | |
pressure remains. It has just been that kind of evening in the penalty | :42:41. | :42:42. | |
corner. Australia has asked questions, and | :42:43. | :43:08. | |
Vincent Vanasch has had the answers. It will be Australia off the Belgian | :43:09. | :43:12. | |
player. Down the right side, he didn't have | :43:13. | :43:28. | |
much room to operate. Dwyer has been ten Asians, as we pass the halfway | :43:29. | :43:35. | |
mark -- ten Asians. The first green card of this contest. -- tenacious. | :43:36. | :43:43. | |
It has been a disciplined game on both sides of the ball. We have our | :43:44. | :43:46. | |
first showing of a green card. Felix Denayer is the recipient of | :43:47. | :44:06. | |
the green card, and on the other side, Glenn Turner. Both sides of | :44:07. | :44:14. | |
the recipients of a green card. No advantage on the field as far as | :44:15. | :44:24. | |
player numbers. Dwyer is not worried about advantage of formation, he is | :44:25. | :44:28. | |
almost single-handedly in the third quarter taking on the game himself. | :44:29. | :44:32. | |
He knows that a loss will not cut it, it would force them to win and | :44:33. | :44:38. | |
win big in their last two contests. Belgium, tenacious now, they can | :44:39. | :44:48. | |
smell a spot in the quarterfinals. Powerful run by Van Strydonck. He is | :44:49. | :44:59. | |
looking for reinforcements. They don't have to push the pace of | :45:00. | :45:03. | |
forced the issue. The idea didn't quite work out. We can see Denayer | :45:04. | :45:17. | |
on the penalty chair, and Glenn Turner on Australia's penalty chair. | :45:18. | :45:24. | |
545 remaining in the game. Elder holding onto that lead. -- Belgium. | :45:25. | :45:35. | |
His goal was a wonderful shot goal in the second quarter. | :45:36. | :45:40. | |
Being marked closely, but he gets the ball to veteran Kavanagh. Bronze | :45:41. | :45:56. | |
in 2008 and 2012 for cabana. Four. He walks it to the top of the 23 | :45:57. | :46:02. | |
metre line, scoops it smartly Obertan Matthew swung in his | :46:03. | :46:06. | |
appearance for Australia. Dockier being watched by Orchard. | :46:07. | :46:38. | |
Australia stick to their guns and get the ball to Dwyer. He would love | :46:39. | :46:50. | |
to get into this tournament with his second goal, he has one of the two | :46:51. | :47:00. | |
Australian goals thus far, Gohdes. That was just a fraction too far for | :47:01. | :47:07. | |
Doire. Belgium trying to keep it simple, just down the side. Nothing | :47:08. | :47:15. | |
fancy, not putting the ball into the middle of the field, not giving | :47:16. | :47:19. | |
Australia the chance to run back at them with speed and numbers. It is | :47:20. | :47:31. | |
hard for them to get a rush going the other way. Stoch Brooks ahead. | :47:32. | :47:45. | |
Happy to kill some kicks off the game clock. | :47:46. | :48:03. | |
The Polish umpire is in his second Olympics, 14 years of umpire | :48:04. | :48:13. | |
experience. Both vampires very experienced, Wright, 46, from South | :48:14. | :48:17. | |
Africa, his fifth Olympic Games as an umpire. Cosyns couldn't keep that | :48:18. | :48:30. | |
ball in. The clock is no friend of Australia. The number one ranked | :48:31. | :48:35. | |
team coming into this Olympic tournament has not fired on the | :48:36. | :48:38. | |
Selin does that they thought they would. A 2-1 win, a narrow 2-1 win | :48:39. | :48:46. | |
in the game against New Zealand on day one, in a game where New Zealand | :48:47. | :48:50. | |
had some big chances, and Australia followed that up with a 1-0 loss | :48:51. | :48:58. | |
against Spain. They were ranked 11th in the world, Australia ranked | :48:59. | :49:03. | |
first, Spain ten places below Australia in the world rankings, and | :49:04. | :49:09. | |
just two goals just far, Belgium on the other side of the ball, 17 goals | :49:10. | :49:16. | |
scored with us far, albeit 12 of those against the new,, Brazil. | :49:17. | :49:24. | |
Australia still to play the host nation. Here is Dawson, he has | :49:25. | :49:32. | |
nowhere to go. Goes backwards, Matthew Swann will try to get it | :49:33. | :49:37. | |
forward, and he sends it in the Dwyer. It will be a free ball for | :49:38. | :49:45. | |
Belgium, but why again taking the game on in this fourth corner with | :49:46. | :49:51. | |
his trademark headband ever present in scoring D. Dwyer not afraid to | :49:52. | :50:02. | |
take a few knocks. You can see the mentality, they are | :50:03. | :50:29. | |
trying to keep it simple, not trying to knock the ball into the middle of | :50:30. | :50:34. | |
the park any more. Just happy to kill 20 seconds, now just 35 seconds | :50:35. | :50:41. | |
remain in the game. Boeljon with really sharp tackles, willing to | :50:42. | :50:46. | |
play hard-nosed Totti, in the trenches. It wasn't pretty at times, | :50:47. | :50:53. | |
but it certainly was effective. -- hard-nosed hockey. The captain is | :50:54. | :51:00. | |
showing a little frustration, he knows time is running out, ten | :51:01. | :51:04. | |
seconds. The Belgian fans counting down. Belgium is so close to a | :51:05. | :51:13. | |
famous victory in their hockey history, and the buzzer sounds on | :51:14. | :51:18. | |
just that, a magnificent win the team Boeljon, ranked sixth by the | :51:19. | :51:26. | |
FIA, they toppled the top ranked Australians. -- team Boeljon. | :51:27. | :51:34. | |
But is the fourth goal of Rio 2016 for Cosyns, the hero on the night. | :51:35. | :51:46. | |
Australia just two goals in three games in Rio 2016. | :51:47. | :52:02. | |
The top-ranked side have an awful Olympic Games so far, they take on | :52:03. | :52:10. | |
Team GB tomorrow at 8:30pm, half past 12 back in the UK. Belgium top | :52:11. | :52:18. | |
the way with a perfect record so far, and Great Britain are in third, | :52:19. | :52:23. | |
they have had a win, a draw and a defeat. It is their game against | :52:24. | :52:29. | |
Australia tomorrow, and after their victory today, that could be | :52:30. | :52:32. | |
significant, because as you can see, just below the New Zealand- Spain | :52:33. | :52:37. | |
results, Brazil 1-9 Great Britain, goal difference could turn out to be | :52:38. | :52:43. | |
crucial in this pool. And after that match, Richard Hill SAD spoke to the | :52:44. | :52:59. | |
Team GB coach. -- Richie Passad. You have to work really hard to open up | :53:00. | :53:03. | |
teams who are going to defend, I thought the execution could have | :53:04. | :53:07. | |
been better, but we kept going, and I am pleased the lads played with | :53:08. | :53:12. | |
intensity to put Brazil on the back foot and open them up. To win by a | :53:13. | :53:17. | |
big scoreline, people make it look easy, but it is hard work. And you | :53:18. | :53:26. | |
took the decision late on to take George off, the tactics, are you | :53:27. | :53:30. | |
looking at the future games against Spain, Australia, wondering what | :53:31. | :53:34. | |
will happen? Yes, we don't know whether goal difference will make a | :53:35. | :53:37. | |
difference or not, so we just needed to keep scoring, I felt Brazil had | :53:38. | :53:44. | |
tired because they had to do so much defending, so that was why we could | :53:45. | :53:47. | |
put another player on upfront, didn't want to do it much earlier, | :53:48. | :53:52. | |
but that was the reason. What have you made of the progress so far? | :53:53. | :53:56. | |
There was disappointment in the first match with Belgium, a little | :53:57. | :53:59. | |
better against New Zealand. Has it been progression in your mind? | :54:00. | :54:04. | |
Without doubt, we will pour the first game, a lot of soul-searching | :54:05. | :54:08. | |
after that, and even after the New Zealand game where we improved a | :54:09. | :54:11. | |
lot, we were still disappointed with a lot of our play. But we are | :54:12. | :54:15. | |
getting better, tonight is a very different game to the rest of the | :54:16. | :54:20. | |
tournament, but we can take it to Australia and bring our best hockey | :54:21. | :54:24. | |
which we know is a match anyone. Bobby, thank you for your time, well | :54:25. | :54:27. | |
done tonight. A big day tomorrow the Team GB's | :54:28. | :54:32. | |
men's hockey side. Thank you for your company on BBC Four today, it | :54:33. | :54:36. | |
has been a great David the Olympics. Samad results, New Zealand against | :54:37. | :54:42. | |
Japan, and in the tennis, yet another top seed goes out. In the | :54:43. | :54:47. | |
men's and women's singles and doubles, all four of the top seeds | :54:48. | :54:50. | |
in those various disciplines have gone out by round three. It makes | :54:51. | :54:55. | |
good reading for both Andy Murray and Johanna Konta who are both into | :54:56. | :55:01. | |
the quarterfinals of the men's and women's singles as well, we will | :55:02. | :55:03. | |
continue to follow their progress, and one other thing to show you | :55:04. | :55:08. | |
before we leave, we have our Rio trio, but have a look at this goal | :55:09. | :55:12. | |
from Columbia's women, their first ever point in the Olympic football | :55:13. | :55:18. | |
came courtesy of that last-minute equaliser, wonderful free kick from | :55:19. | :55:25. | |
Katarina Osman. You might be tempted to say dodgy goalkeeping from Hope | :55:26. | :55:33. | |
Solo, this is her 201st international cap, but it was quite | :55:34. | :55:38. | |
a strike. When you see the replay, you probably will understand why she | :55:39. | :55:43. | |
wasn't happy. It finished USA 2-2 Columbia, taking place deep into | :55:44. | :55:50. | |
added time, to the final score, and both the men's and women's world | :55:51. | :55:59. | |
take race about ten miles from here. A lovely free kick, but Hope Solo | :56:00. | :56:07. | |
might think she should have got a touch. Thank you for all of your | :56:08. | :56:11. | |
texts and tweets. I'm sorry we haven't been able to read all of | :56:12. | :56:18. | |
them out. The Rio trio of a free stories we think of stood out across | :56:19. | :56:21. | |
the day, some have made guidelines and some have, but these are the | :56:22. | :56:25. | |
ones we think you will be talking about tomorrow morning. It is | :56:26. | :56:30. | |
tomorrow morning already in the UK! On today. -- later on today. A fifth | :56:31. | :56:39. | |
successive gold for China in the women's ten metre synchro diving. | :56:40. | :56:44. | |
They were braving the green water. Remember it was safe. | :56:45. | :56:52. | |
We went a bit early with our Japan News of the bottom of the screen. | :56:53. | :56:59. | |
They were the hot favourite -- of a stunned the hot favourites in their | :57:00. | :57:08. | |
pool game, that was the headline win on day four of the games. And Simone | :57:09. | :57:16. | |
Biles led defending champions USA to a fantastic victory in the women's | :57:17. | :57:28. | |
team gymnastics. And that actually leads me to my statistic of the day | :57:29. | :57:32. | |
which I did check earlier. You will dazzle your mates with this. Did you | :57:33. | :57:38. | |
know, number of individual crystals on the Team USA gymnastics leotard, | :57:39. | :57:42. | |
this is officially a leotard stat, the first one I have ever given out. | :57:43. | :57:49. | |
2008, 184 crystals. 2012, 1188 crystals. These Rio games, 2016, | :57:50. | :57:58. | |
5000 individual crystals. I told you it was special. A reminder as we | :57:59. | :58:04. | |
come to the end on BBC Four tonight that BBC One continues with some | :58:05. | :58:08. | |
incredible swimming finals. So much to look forward to, Katie Ledecky | :58:09. | :58:20. | |
for the USA, and we have Chad Le Clos and Michael Phelps later. | :58:21. | :58:25. | |
Michael Phelps actually lost in the final to the Hungarian swimmer, so | :58:26. | :58:33. | |
it will be one to look out for as well but it will be billed as Chad | :58:34. | :58:39. | |
Le Clos against Michael Phelps. And Team GB, I think that will be 2.30, | :58:40. | :58:44. | |
Siobhan-Marie O'Connor going in the individual medley, she was fastest | :58:45. | :58:50. | |
in the semifinals are a real chance of a medal for her, and right at the | :58:51. | :58:58. | |
end of the swimming sequence, 3:30am, the world record holders in | :58:59. | :59:02. | |
Team GB going fairly for by 200 metres freestyle. Thank you fewer | :59:03. | :59:14. | |
time on BBC Four. Ore will be here tomorrow, we will be here in our | :59:15. | :59:22. | |
kiosk/ beach hut. And the gymnastics tomorrow, Simone Biles is hot topic | :59:23. | :59:28. | |
for tomorrow, she has been billed as the best female gymnast ever, and we | :59:29. | :59:31. | |
will be seeing plenty more of her over the few days. From us on BBC | :59:32. | :59:34. | |
Four, good night. | :59:35. | :59:37. |
