the men's final. Can Andy Murray retain his Olympic title from four

:00:00.:00:00.

years ago? It will be available at 7:30pm UK time tomorrow, but there

:00:00.:00:09.

are two doubles finals before that so it might push it back a little

:00:10.:00:13.

bit or it might get done quickly and it will be on early, who knows?

:00:14.:00:15.

7:30pm is the time. It is time we brought you some live

:00:16.:00:34.

hockey on BBC Four. Tate Britain's women have been unbeatable as have

:00:35.:00:38.

the USA. The two face each other tonight and that is the game we will

:00:39.:00:45.

show you. Both with 12 points and 100% record from four matches. This

:00:46.:00:50.

match is still crucial. Depend on where you finish in the grip, that

:00:51.:00:54.

affects your drawing the quarterfinals. Let us go live to the

:00:55.:01:01.

National hockey Stadium. It is just started so we can say hello to the

:01:02.:01:04.

commentary team that will take you through the match. , two Great

:01:05.:01:09.

Britain and already attacking the gold to the left. The United States

:01:10.:01:16.

of America are top of the group but on goal difference only. Just a

:01:17.:01:24.

couple of minutes into this first period. Giselle Ansley Heather --

:01:25.:01:40.

has had a really good tournament so far backed up by the age Spears

:01:41.:01:45.

Crista Cullen, wearing -- winning her 100th cap for Great Britain this

:01:46.:01:51.

evening. It will be a free hit for Great Britain. Kate Richardson-Walsh

:01:52.:02:03.

is the captain. I am expecting this game to be physical. I am hoping

:02:04.:02:08.

both umpires will let the play happened. It is setup to be

:02:09.:02:14.

fantastic. The USA beat Great Britain in the champions Trophy

:02:15.:02:21.

recently. The USA coach used to coach Great Britain and he will know

:02:22.:02:24.

the strengths and weaknesses of the British team so it'll be interesting

:02:25.:02:31.

to see how this pans out. That was a beautiful delivery and the backhand

:02:32.:02:34.

shot was just wide. Good start for the USA. Katie Bam has been a player

:02:35.:02:40.

of the tournament and has been scoring the goals for the USA. It

:02:41.:02:45.

was a long ball into the circle. She picks it up well, onto the backhand.

:02:46.:02:54.

An early wake-up call for Great Britain. They will know all about

:02:55.:02:59.

Katie Bam and the rest of the Americans. Katie Bam showing what

:03:00.:03:05.

she is capable of with the first serious attack of the half. Add a

:03:06.:03:09.

chance for Townsend, one of the best players in the world. She has real

:03:10.:03:11.

peace. -- she's really Alexandra Danson time to recover way

:03:12.:03:25.

into the circle. The USA cup away with possession.

:03:26.:03:30.

She will know that Alex lives to put the ball up into the air on the end

:03:31.:03:38.

of a stick. She did not rush in, user experience and won the free hit

:03:39.:03:40.

413. -- for her team. The Americans appealed for a penalty

:03:41.:03:54.

corner and desperate defending. Great Britain get away with it

:03:55.:04:01.

again. I think Amber Church of the umpire did well to play and

:04:02.:04:04.

advantage. It is Katie Bam that is getting the ball in the circle.

:04:05.:04:08.

Arguably it was dangerous and everybody was appealing for the

:04:09.:04:12.

corner. It was Melissa Gonzalez with the snapshot.

:04:13.:04:15.

Very impressive start for the team from the USA. Hollie Webb having to

:04:16.:04:23.

defend once again. Aiming for Alexandra Danson. The USA

:04:24.:04:39.

break forward again. Giselle Ansley doing lots of work in

:04:40.:04:56.

the early stages. The Americans once again inside the British circle. The

:04:57.:04:59.

pressure has been relieved for the moment. The USA have hit the ground

:05:00.:05:07.

running and got into their stride much quicker than Great Britain have

:05:08.:05:13.

at the moment. Prepare to press up the field. We know that Great

:05:14.:05:16.

Britain have got aerial ability from both halfbacks from Giselle Ansley

:05:17.:05:22.

and Crista Cullen. Two sisters on the side for the USA. Sophie Bray

:05:23.:05:32.

was in a promising position but she was tackled quickly.

:05:33.:05:48.

Good control by Villarreal 's Lee. -- Lili Al 's Lee.

:05:49.:05:59.

The USA are shot with their tackling. Beautiful piece of skill

:06:00.:06:11.

by Owsley with the ball in the. To change direction. For anyone

:06:12.:06:14.

watching this who thinks the USA could not play at this intensity and

:06:15.:06:19.

tempo red Tory presents a prize. This is one of the fittest teams in

:06:20.:06:25.

the world. Watching the warm up routine, unlike any other team. It

:06:26.:06:29.

was a serious work-out on the field. Good juggling skills from Sophie

:06:30.:06:53.

Bray and keeps Britain in possession.

:06:54.:07:05.

So important when Great Britain played the ball into a marked

:07:06.:07:42.

player, they must know what they are doing with the ball next.

:07:43.:07:49.

That was a good move from Sam Quek. Little shuffle inside. That was

:07:50.:08:13.

obstruction. Good skill from Sam Quek to book -- pull the ball inside

:08:14.:08:19.

Kathleen Sharkey. The speed of the USA forwards means that Sam was not

:08:20.:08:21.

given much time on the ball. That came off the shins of Michelle

:08:22.:08:25.

Vittese. Good steel by Sam Quek. That was

:08:26.:08:49.

physical from Sam Quek. Goodness me. Calm down says the umpire. It was

:08:50.:08:56.

good to see she was allowing this to happen. That was a good tackle on

:08:57.:09:03.

Shona McCallin. Sam Quek will shoulder to shoulder.

:09:04.:09:17.

Certainly hoping the game continues to be played at this intensity.

:09:18.:09:42.

That was intercepted by the alert Kate Richardson-Walsh. Gonzales

:09:43.:09:44.

comes forward again. Five minutes left in the first

:09:45.:10:14.

quarter. First penalty corner of the game

:10:15.:10:37.

goes to Great Britain. That was a fantastic ball in from Helen

:10:38.:10:40.

Richardson-Walsh to find Alexandra Danson at the top of the circle. She

:10:41.:10:48.

rolls around Julia Reinprecht. Obstruction given an first real

:10:49.:10:51.

opportunity for Great Britain this evening. The team are in a huddle

:10:52.:10:59.

host of the Americans get the extra padding and face masks on. Georgie

:11:00.:11:02.

Twigg will inject for Great Britain. Kate Richardson-Walsh, number 11 and

:11:03.:11:15.

Crista Cullen is number five. Lined up with an eye on goal. The first

:11:16.:11:19.

penalty corner. It is Crista Cullen and that was a good save. I am

:11:20.:11:27.

sensing the ball hit Jackie Briggs in goal rather than humbling

:11:28.:11:30.

anything about it. It doesn't matter how you keep the ball out, I think

:11:31.:11:32.

it came off the top of her helmet. That struck the American on her

:11:33.:11:54.

arrest and that hurt. Good tackle by Sam Quek.

:11:55.:12:12.

We're going to see this a lot from Great Britain, they do favour

:12:13.:12:18.

attacking down the right than the left. They still need to work the

:12:19.:12:21.

ball around to the left and pull the USA over before attacking that way.

:12:22.:12:31.

It is a free hit on the 23 for Great Britain.

:12:32.:12:47.

Sustained pressure by the USA in the first five minutes of the quarter.

:12:48.:13:05.

Since then, my mentor has switched. The team in red has dominated the

:13:06.:13:10.

attacking manoeuvres. This has been a lot of possession for both teams

:13:11.:13:16.

up until the 23 yard line and the defence is kicking in. It is not

:13:17.:13:20.

surprised that the Britain have only conceded three in four games, as has

:13:21.:13:25.

the USA. They have had good team defence all tournament.

:13:26.:13:43.

Sam Quek has been sent for a two-minute suspension. Great Britain

:13:44.:13:54.

are one player down. It is probably a green card but there has been

:13:55.:14:00.

worse happening in the scheme. She has given it for the sticks another

:14:01.:14:05.

near. It is 50-50 and they have both done it. It is a soft green card by

:14:06.:14:10.

the umpire. She has deemed that week and Sam Quek has had to the

:14:11.:14:11.

punishment. Alexandra Danson gets the penalty

:14:12.:14:24.

corner. She turned, still of the American food and forced the ball

:14:25.:14:27.

onto that foot. Penalty corner is the outcome. -- foot. You do get

:14:28.:14:34.

worried you will be hit with the stick on the follow-through. Katelyn

:14:35.:14:41.

Falgowski is trying to protect her feet and she ran the ball into the

:14:42.:14:45.

stick and it popped up onto the body and the second penalty of the game.

:14:46.:14:57.

Crista Cullen and Giselle Ansley are the likely targets.

:14:58.:15:04.

The second penalty corner for Great Britain. Good save again, excellent

:15:05.:15:13.

goalkeeping so far by Jackie Briggs. She has been in brilliant form and

:15:14.:15:16.

this tournament, she has been better from the champions Trophy until now,

:15:17.:15:24.

she has improved massively. Miscommunication from Crista Cullen

:15:25.:15:26.

and Alexandra Danson. Just one minute to play until the first

:15:27.:15:28.

break. it will be on early, who knows?

:15:29.:15:35.

7:30pm is the time. Bitterness the Americans have played

:15:36.:15:49.

four and one for. Beat Argentina and Australia, thrust Japan and beat

:15:50.:15:54.

India 3-0. The USA with 12 points out of a possible 12. The same for

:15:55.:16:02.

Great Britain. They defeated Argentina in a tight match, 3-2 and

:16:03.:16:10.

came through with are the -- a rather modest scoreline against

:16:11.:16:11.

Japan, 2-0 in the end. Last 15 seconds of the 15 minute

:16:12.:16:28.

quarter. It has been a very interesting start. Plenty to enjoy,

:16:29.:16:33.

good entertainment for a reasonable crowd on page one this evening. But

:16:34.:16:39.

the hooter will take us to the the end of the first quarter. 15 minutes

:16:40.:16:43.

played, 0-0. DAN WALKER: We shall be back up the

:16:44.:16:59.

hockey very shortly, 0-0 between Britain and the USA. We will be back

:17:00.:17:05.

for the second period. From our base here in Copacabana, let's show you

:17:06.:17:09.

what else is on land available for you across the BBC. So much good

:17:10.:17:14.

sport. On BBC One, the track cycling, currently in the men's

:17:15.:17:18.

sprint. I think Jason Kenny has just made it through. You can follow that

:17:19.:17:23.

on BBC One now. Callum Skinner is the man to go next. On the Red

:17:24.:17:33.

Button, it's the final of the women's gold-medal match, this is

:17:34.:17:40.

Angelique Kerber against Monica Puig. Andy Murray will face Juan

:17:41.:17:44.

Martin Del Potro tomorrow in the men's gold-medal match. Let's see if

:17:45.:17:49.

Monica Puig can take first set. She is at two set points in the first

:17:50.:17:54.

set. Angelique Kerber, the Wimbledon champion, she managed to knockout

:17:55.:17:59.

Heather Watson earlier in the tennis. Monica Puig Porto Rico, who

:18:00.:18:06.

have never won a gold medal. -- from Puerto Rico. You can watch that on

:18:07.:18:13.

the Red Button if you fancy that. Let's show you what is coming up

:18:14.:18:18.

over the next few hours on BBC Four. You will have do -- we will struggle

:18:19.:18:25.

to keep your attention, there's so much going on. We have the hockey,

:18:26.:18:29.

we will be following that very shortly for you. Joe Joyce in action

:18:30.:18:36.

in the men's superheavy boxing. I am hearing there are some members of

:18:37.:18:39.

the basketball Dream Team watching the boxing. That is later for you.

:18:40.:18:46.

Athletics and midnight is the heptathlon javelin with Jessica

:18:47.:18:49.

Ennis-Hill and Katarina Johnson-Thompson. Then at one a.m.,

:18:50.:18:55.

it is the men's long jump final, involving Greg Rutherford. This is a

:18:56.:18:59.

repeat of Super Saturday four years ago. Then Mo Farah in the 10,000m at

:19:00.:19:09.

1:30am your time. And if you can stay up until nearly three a.m., it

:19:10.:19:16.

is the final event in the athletics. The heptathlon 800m final, it could

:19:17.:19:24.

be another one of those Saturdays. At that moment of crossing the line

:19:25.:19:29.

and having my family there. Just knowing that I put all those events

:19:30.:19:34.

together, it had all gone right. Pure excitement and shock and

:19:35.:19:42.

relief, an amazing feeling. Let's get straight back to the hockey.

:19:43.:19:47.

Super Saturday continues, BBC One will have all of the athletics for

:19:48.:19:50.

you later but we are sticking with the hockey on BBC Four. Back to Mel

:19:51.:19:53.

and Matt. Early in the second period here.

:19:54.:20:02.

Sophie Bray had a very good chance to put Great Britain 1-0 up in the

:20:03.:20:09.

first minute of the quarter, but she forced a brilliant save from Jackie

:20:10.:20:13.

Briggs, really promising start to the period for Great Britain. In

:20:14.:20:20.

towards the circle again, turn, almost fell for Hannah MacLeod but

:20:21.:20:25.

the penalty corner has been awarded. Mistake from the USA, they allow

:20:26.:20:33.

Georgie Twigg to run with the ball, spins the ball onto Rachel Dawson's

:20:34.:20:38.

left foot. This is the Sophie Bray opportunity. She intercepts,

:20:39.:20:43.

beautiful little lift over the stick and that is a fantastic stick save

:20:44.:20:45.

from Jackie Briggs. Sensational. Preparations continue, the usual

:20:46.:21:00.

suspects, Crista Cullen, Kate Richardson-Walsh. Georgie Twigg with

:21:01.:21:08.

the injection. Unsworth traps. Kate Richardson-Walsh can't find a way

:21:09.:21:12.

through. Another attempt and another penalty corner. This might be

:21:13.:21:19.

referred for possibly being too high.

:21:20.:21:27.

UMPIRE: Can you check it for me please? A video referral for the

:21:28.:21:32.

USA, you only get one of these. If it is upheld, you keep your

:21:33.:21:36.

referral, if it is rejected, you lose it. This came off her shin pad,

:21:37.:21:43.

didn't it? It has come off the stick, it if it is above her knee.

:21:44.:21:51.

It does seem to be the case. Ball was dangerous so every hit to the

:21:52.:21:55.

USA and they keep their referral. OK, thank you. No penalty corner for

:21:56.:22:03.

the Great Britain team, who now hurry back into position. It is

:22:04.:22:07.

upheld and so the United States of America keep that video referral

:22:08.:22:13.

option. It can go up -- they can go upstairs again later in the match if

:22:14.:22:24.

they need to. Owsley has won it and sets up Susannah Townsend, who

:22:25.:22:30.

doesn't get a lucky bounce at all. The United States able to reset with

:22:31.:22:40.

Gonzalez on the left. Good steel. -- steal. Cullum, deep inside the US's

:22:41.:22:56.

23. Trying to open something up -- Crista Cullen. Nicola White takes it

:22:57.:23:02.

to the corner. White tries to find Townsend but the USA steel and set

:23:03.:23:06.

off at pace down the left, but only as far as Hollie Webb -- steal. GB

:23:07.:23:12.

have done well to double-team the ball carrier from the USA. As yet,

:23:13.:23:16.

the USA haven't really got out of their hearts so far. GB have

:23:17.:23:21.

increased the intensity at which they are playing and it has caused

:23:22.:23:33.

the USA a few problems. That blew up off the stick and court Crista

:23:34.:23:36.

Cullen, I think. Her glove protected her.

:23:37.:23:42.

Nice little reverse. In towards the circle. Nicola White claiming she

:23:43.:23:53.

was impeded but the USA get position. GB are getting a lot of

:23:54.:23:58.

success out of just attacking the 45 degrees angle of the USA circle, so

:23:59.:24:02.

they are not coming in at the top, not going in at the baseline. The

:24:03.:24:07.

USA need to smarten up at that otherwise it is going to cost them.

:24:08.:24:13.

Vitesse, number nine for the USA. Watched all the way by Georgie

:24:14.:24:20.

Twigg. She did well. Fines Hannah MacLeod, who find Sophie Bray. --

:24:21.:24:31.

finds. The test takes it on. And the pass falls almost kindly for Nicola

:24:32.:24:36.

White. It is Great Britain's possession, taken on acquitted by

:24:37.:24:40.

Lily Owsley. Covering a lot of ground and she has played that with

:24:41.:24:45.

a nice weight. The keeper kicks it away first time. The USA escape.

:24:46.:24:50.

Lily Owsley did really well, because at the time of her driving from left

:24:51.:24:55.

to right, Hannah MacLeod was making a substitution, so she didn't have

:24:56.:25:01.

any support. It was a great lift over Rachel Dawson's stick.

:25:02.:25:11.

No score here in the final match of Pool B. Ten minutes until the

:25:12.:25:18.

half-time break. Gonzalez absolutely flattened by

:25:19.:25:31.

Nicola White, might get a yellow card for this. No, it's green.

:25:32.:25:42.

Two-minute suspension for Nicola White. I think it is because it is

:25:43.:25:48.

the second or third offence that Nicola White has had in the last few

:25:49.:25:52.

minutes, so it is probably a build-up of fouls Rock, rather than

:25:53.:25:57.

that as an individual one. -- of fouls.

:25:58.:26:06.

The USA stuck in the circle. Georgie Twigg takes it right to the flag. In

:26:07.:26:17.

no rush to get out of there. Fines are British foot and from Britain's

:26:18.:26:25.

point of view, here we go again. Calm under pressure.

:26:26.:26:43.

Georgie Twigg leaves it this time for Owsley. Back to web. Over two

:26:44.:26:54.

some correct on the interception. Promising move forward -- over to

:26:55.:27:02.

Sam Quek. Potential scoring position. Needs to be driven in.

:27:03.:27:09.

I think at the moment, Great Britain, when they are working their

:27:10.:27:15.

way out of defence, they are too predictable, getting the ball from

:27:16.:27:18.

one side of the feel to the other and playing the ball down the

:27:19.:27:21.

sideline. I would like to see them, when the ball gets to Giselle Ansley

:27:22.:27:26.

or Sam Quek, playing as outside offenders, they are looking in feel

:27:27.:27:33.

to the screen players, so Shona McCallin first or Laura and sweat,

:27:34.:27:38.

so you are looking to exploit them inside. Great skill from Kate

:27:39.:27:43.

Richardson-Walsh to get herself out of that but now there are American

:27:44.:27:47.

players everywhere. A little bit more of a shoulder charge from Sam

:27:48.:27:51.

Quek. She has done it a couple of times and got away with it. Great

:27:52.:27:57.

Britain breaking forward. Some shirt pulling going on, unseen by the

:27:58.:28:02.

umpire. Alexandra Danson into the corner. Good service from

:28:03.:28:08.

Richardson-Walsh. Danson plays it back and makes their way to the

:28:09.:28:11.

circle as Great Britain switch sides.

:28:12.:28:24.

Forward-thinking, still, Great Britain. Picked up and controlled

:28:25.:28:31.

nicely by Owsley. Looking for Danson. Shooting chance. Double save

:28:32.:28:41.

from Jackie Briggs, who seems unstoppable tonight. Lily Owsley is

:28:42.:28:48.

about to pick up a card, a green one, for the diving and probably the

:28:49.:28:53.

stick tackle. Again, for me, it is a little bit harsh, she is trying to

:28:54.:29:01.

play the replay. She here, it is just narration, she swung at the

:29:02.:29:04.

stick, trying to get a shot at goal and she has two minutes on the

:29:05.:29:09.

sideline as a result of it and again, Jackie Briggs is in

:29:10.:29:14.

phenomenal form. Good move down the left. Shona McCallin actually loses

:29:15.:29:19.

out and the United States can rebuild from the back.

:29:20.:29:35.

And that is, there we go, she thought about it and the church.

:29:36.:29:47.

Green card produced for Katie Bam, who will have a two-minute

:29:48.:29:52.

suspension, tangling with the Great Britain captain Kate

:29:53.:29:53.

Richardson-Walsh, who went down quite heavily. I think that is

:29:54.:30:00.

probably a shoulder to shoulder too far but I have to say, I think the

:30:01.:30:03.

umpires have got it spot on this evening. They have allowed a certain

:30:04.:30:08.

amount ago and when they feel it has bubbled over, they have sent

:30:09.:30:12.

somebody to the side. Both teams to the player on the bench at the

:30:13.:30:14.

moment. Lauren Crandall is the captain of

:30:15.:30:26.

the United States. Michelle Beattie is -- Michelle

:30:27.:31:07.

Vittese has came of age. She has got better and better with each

:31:08.:31:09.

tournament. She is so fast through the midfield.

:31:10.:31:40.

Kate Richardson-Walsh is coming forward to join in the fun. Some

:31:41.:31:53.

confusion as to where the ball needs to be placed for the free hit. Good

:31:54.:32:04.

to go now. Through the legs of the American player, that was confident

:32:05.:32:06.

by Kate Richardson-Walsh. We knew this would be tight between

:32:07.:32:24.

the best two teams in the tournament so far. And so it has proved. No

:32:25.:32:30.

goals and three minutes until half-time.

:32:31.:33:02.

We know that a draw is good enough for the USA to remain on top of the

:33:03.:33:10.

group because of goal difference. As the game progresses, I can not see

:33:11.:33:13.

personally, but they could be happy to settle for the draw. As GB press

:33:14.:33:19.

for to get the goal, it will leave the space at the back potentially

:33:20.:33:21.

for the USA to exploit. That was a potential shooting

:33:22.:34:13.

opportunity but it has come and gone for Great Britain for the moment.

:34:14.:34:29.

Sowing and a miss from Georgie Twigg and the danger is over for the USA.

:34:30.:34:36.

It was given for the fit but I am not sure. Well taken by Georgie

:34:37.:34:41.

Twigg to take it quickly. I do note that Owsley put her off. She took a

:34:42.:34:49.

quick shot to the Jews the amount of backswing jihad. Can Great Britain

:34:50.:34:55.

build one more meaningful moves towards that American goal and head

:34:56.:34:57.

to half-time with the advantage? Usually absorbing half of hockey. No

:34:58.:35:31.

goals but plenty to enjoy and plenty to be discussed during the half-time

:35:32.:35:35.

break. The final ten seconds of play. They will be level at

:35:36.:35:48.

half-time. 30 minutes played with 30 minutes to come. The scoreline here

:35:49.:35:53.

in this final group match is much as expected. No goals, Great Britain

:35:54.:35:56.

0-0 USA. It is tense and tight and we will be

:35:57.:36:06.

back for the second half. This is significant even though both Great

:36:07.:36:09.

Britain and the United States of America happy 100% record so far. 12

:36:10.:36:15.

points from four games. This does dictate who goes where in the

:36:16.:36:18.

quarterfinals and potentially who can make it all the way towards

:36:19.:36:23.

those Olympic medals. We shall do the men going out last night. Great

:36:24.:36:27.

Britain's women doing supremely well considering what happened to the

:36:28.:36:32.

men. They were so disappointed, we shall do their final match live

:36:33.:36:36.

yesterday and heartache for them but making it through to the knockout

:36:37.:36:40.

stages of the hockey tournament. We promised Ruby Walsh will use in

:36:41.:36:46.

golf. It is round three of the first Olympic golf tournament for over 100

:36:47.:36:50.

years. They have been playing about ten miles down the coast from there

:36:51.:36:57.

we are. The course is brand-new. It is about 60 minutes in Rio traffic.

:36:58.:37:03.

We will show you the highlights from Day three. Tomorrow is when the

:37:04.:37:09.

medals are handed out. Josh and Rose started four shot of the lead held

:37:10.:37:14.

by Marcus Fraser. Jason Day and Adam Scott Australia did not come to the

:37:15.:37:17.

other begins and that has been an issue for a number of the top

:37:18.:37:22.

golfers, Rory McIlroy and others on that list. Justin Rose has embraced

:37:23.:37:27.

the Olympic spirit. He turned up for the golf started and went to a

:37:28.:37:33.

number of events. He has knuckled down and concentrated. Henrik

:37:34.:37:38.

Stenson also in with a shout, the open champion. He started the day

:37:39.:37:42.

close to Marcus Fraser, he was 10-under, Justin Rose was 6-under.

:37:43.:37:49.

This is the story of the golf today. COMMENTATOR: Justin Rose on the

:37:50.:37:58.

third hole. It is a par four, it is driveable but the wind has picked

:37:59.:38:03.

up. Brownlie she goes. Round of the Cup.

:38:04.:38:10.

This man is making lots of markers. A hole in one on day one. And a lap

:38:11.:38:21.

of honour on the third Andy two. It is his Rose garden. Justin Rose on

:38:22.:38:30.

the fifth. This is for an eagle to get to 10-under and to take the

:38:31.:38:37.

outright lead. He drops it. That is the par. That is what he has to make

:38:38.:38:47.

more of. Britain's Justin Rose leads the Olympic men's individual stroke

:38:48.:38:48.

play on his own at 10-under par. It looks good, it looks really good.

:38:49.:38:55.

How good is that? He left the of long putts out on the

:38:56.:39:27.

course yesterday and he was to make more today. He is making them from

:39:28.:39:34.

off the green, Justin Rose of Great Britain, he extends his lead in the

:39:35.:39:38.

Olympic men's individual stroke play Championship. His lead is two shot,

:39:39.:39:41.

11-under par. Justin Rose, can he get up and down

:39:42.:39:58.

on 14? He needs this. He flirted with that left lip. Marcus Fraser

:39:59.:40:04.

makes a birdie, just behind it Justin Rose who drops one shot. It

:40:05.:40:11.

was a birdie chance to go to 11-under. It does not move a great

:40:12.:40:18.

deal. Justin Rose looks good. He has got it. Justin Rose leads by one

:40:19.:40:23.

shot. Henrik Stenson is chasing him. Just a little bit concerned with the

:40:24.:40:52.

wind. It is swirling around the golf course. It is a strong now as it has

:40:53.:40:57.

been all day. In fact it is stronger now than it was this morning.

:40:58.:41:07.

It is brilliant. It was worth the deliberation. Brilliant from Henrik

:41:08.:41:20.

This putt for birdie to go level with Justin Rose.

:41:21.:41:43.

He makes the putt. He takes the step after halfway along as Jonah, he

:41:44.:41:54.

knows it is good, 11-under par. Henrik Stenson and Justin Rose are

:41:55.:41:55.

leading. Good solid putt from Justin Rose and

:41:56.:42:23.

claims the 1-stroke lead over Henrik Stenson who has made a birdie.

:42:24.:42:33.

Justin Rose goes to 12-under. Henrik Stenson, this putt for birdie on 16.

:42:34.:42:39.

To draw level with Britain's Justin Rose. Henrik Stenson from Sweden.

:42:40.:42:45.

For the birdie on 16. That is a chance missed for Henrik

:42:46.:43:04.

Stenson. He makes par on 16. Henrik Stenson referred to the last.

:43:05.:43:13.

That is good, it holds, it bites. Wetlands and it stop. Henrik Stenson

:43:14.:43:20.

will be applauded by the gallery if he makes that. He will be level with

:43:21.:43:27.

Justin Rose. It should be a titanic shoot out over 18 holes between two

:43:28.:43:33.

offers that have put themselves well clear of anyone else in the field

:43:34.:43:37.

bark Marcus Fraser who will be three backend. Henrik Stenson still needs

:43:38.:43:44.

to make the putt. This is now a birdie putt. To draw level with

:43:45.:43:51.

Justin Rose and slips by at the top side. That is to make par. He

:43:52.:44:00.

finishes Jim McDonnell, Henrik Stenson. 68. -- three under.

:44:01.:44:10.

They do show you how things stand going into the final day tomorrow.

:44:11.:44:17.

Justin Rose is top, one shot clear of the open champion Henrik Stenson.

:44:18.:44:22.

Marcus Fraser is one shot back from where he started the day. Perfect on

:44:23.:44:29.

the first two days. 9-under par. Then it is six shots back to Bubba

:44:30.:44:33.

Watson of the USA. Justin Rose is a great position and he has embraced

:44:34.:44:38.

the Olympic Games. He will be leading the way going into the final

:44:39.:44:42.

round tomorrow. We will bring you the conclusion of that somewhere on

:44:43.:44:47.

the BBC, hopefully on BBC Four as a helicopter goes overhead. That'll be

:44:48.:44:54.

around seven or eight tomorrow. One other thing to show you from the

:44:55.:44:59.

golf today. We do not recommend you do this if you find one of these

:45:00.:45:03.

anywhere near you on the golf course. Henrik Stenson was having a

:45:04.:45:07.

stroll in the final few rounds of his round today. He decided to

:45:08.:45:15.

jabber a crocodile with his pitching wedge. He beat a hasty retreat and

:45:16.:45:19.

the check over his shoulder just in case the crocodile was coming out of

:45:20.:45:25.

the water. The dangers of the golf. Thank you for so many messages

:45:26.:45:29.

tonight. I will be delighted if Justin Rose can win a medal, it has

:45:30.:45:33.

been fantastic that he has embraced the other begins. How on earth can I

:45:34.:45:39.

stay up tonight? I think I am going to sleep between recycling and

:45:40.:45:44.

athletics. I should be out at the pub but my wife says I have to stay

:45:45.:45:49.

and and watch BBC Four. Thank you for that, Darren. And also, my own

:45:50.:45:56.

wife has said, I will not be watching you tonight because there

:45:57.:46:00.

is cycling and athletics on the other channel. Thank you for your

:46:01.:46:04.

support. For those of you who are heard on BBC Four, we love you very

:46:05.:46:11.

much. And George North has also tweeted this evening, he is the

:46:12.:46:14.

boyfriend of Becky James who won the Silver Medal in the Caven, what

:46:15.:46:19.

cannot describe how proud I am, everything she has been true, what

:46:20.:46:23.

an absolute hero. If you know the story of Becky James why that is

:46:24.:46:28.

incredible. She had the cancer scare. She has had a number of

:46:29.:46:32.

injuries. She thought cycling had gone but she has came back and went

:46:33.:46:36.

to these games and won an Olympic medal and she makes the Rio

:46:37.:46:39.

headlines. Gold in the team pursuit for the

:46:40.:46:49.

women, they have done it again, and they have done it with a new world

:46:50.:46:54.

record, Laura Trott, Joanna Rowsell, Katie Archibald. There is Becky

:46:55.:47:03.

James, silver for her in the women's keirin, it delighted George North

:47:04.:47:07.

and so many cycling fans and fans of Team GB all over the place. And

:47:08.:47:13.

tomorrow in the final of the men's sprint, it will be Callum Skinner

:47:14.:47:17.

against Jason Kenny for gold and silver, Kenny was up against Chris

:47:18.:47:22.

Solly eight years ago in Beijing, he took silver then, what will happen

:47:23.:47:30.

this time round? -- Chris Hoy. Also, gold for the men's wait any final

:47:31.:47:35.

day of the rowing regatta, finishing in style, first time they have won

:47:36.:47:43.

in that event since Sydney 2000. And a first medal for the women in the

:47:44.:47:47.

eight, USA took the gold, the defending champions from London.

:47:48.:47:58.

Much more for you later on, we are here until two o'clock in the

:47:59.:48:05.

morning, but straight back to the hockey now with Mel and Matt.

:48:06.:48:11.

Early stages of the third period, no scored here, Susannah Townsend on

:48:12.:48:23.

the burst, picked up by the upended McCullen, no whistle, the USA break.

:48:24.:48:33.

She has covered a lot of ground, fired that up, straight at Laura

:48:34.:48:37.

Unsworth, who is in a bit of trouble here. Probably hit her on the glove

:48:38.:48:48.

and, directly on the knuckles, that has the potential to break a

:48:49.:48:57.

player's hand. Unsworth has undoubtedly had worse and will

:48:58.:48:58.

continue unhindered. And is League Two Helen

:48:59.:49:13.

Richardson-Walsh, always exciting to see her in this position. -- Ansley

:49:14.:49:23.

to. She has brilliant stick skills and is a nightmare to play against,

:49:24.:49:27.

you just think she's going to get the ball off, she moves into a

:49:28.:49:31.

different position and makes you look really silly. Aerial ball from

:49:32.:49:37.

Great Britain went straight out of play, so the USA have possession.

:49:38.:49:47.

Helen -- Hannah Macleod get a stake in, but the USA break. Kate

:49:48.:49:59.

Richardson-Walsh. Now, a free hit, Kate

:50:00.:50:11.

Richardson-Walsh, Hollie Webb just down the line behind her. That is

:50:12.:50:19.

where she goes. Accurate passing, I yard gained by Richardson-Walsh

:50:20.:50:25.

takes it to the edge of the circle, still Great Britain's ball.

:50:26.:50:36.

Unsworth. Katie Webb on the diagonal, it hits a USA stick and

:50:37.:50:45.

goes behind. They need to mix out what they are doing, sometimes go

:50:46.:50:49.

around the outside, sometimes down the middle. The long ball is

:50:50.:50:52.

probably not going to find the target. Sustained period of pressure

:50:53.:50:58.

from the players in red here, a little-known from Bray, decent

:50:59.:51:09.

opportunity, the USA clear their lines, but in the end effective.

:51:10.:51:15.

Great shot off the back foot by Nicola White, Jackie Briggs makes

:51:16.:51:22.

the save, Helen -- Hannah Macleod on the rebound. Townsend licks it back

:51:23.:51:33.

but there was no one there. Break on the left from Bam, she has got lots

:51:34.:51:37.

of praise, Maesteg her way to the edge of the circle, she has played

:51:38.:51:42.

it inside, Maddie Hinch off her line gets a boot on the ball. That is the

:51:43.:51:48.

danger for Great Britain, as they try to push up to get the gold to

:51:49.:51:55.

put them top of the fall, the speed of Bam was exceptional, but four USA

:51:56.:52:01.

players in support, Sharkey could not find the target. Kate

:52:02.:52:06.

Richardson-Walsh goes aerial, a little flick from Sophie Bray.

:52:07.:52:15.

Crandall, the captain. On the right, Reinprecht, the younger of the two

:52:16.:52:22.

sisters. All the way to the corner. Shadowed all the way by Hannah

:52:23.:52:30.

Macleod. Full is three American players in the circle. They will

:52:31.:52:35.

start again, with Julia Reinprecht into the edge of the circle this

:52:36.:52:45.

time, heavy collision, Bray comes away with it. We have seen a few of

:52:46.:52:48.

those tackles this evening, just when either side is coming through

:52:49.:52:53.

the attacker. Helen Richardson-Walsh, brilliant break,

:52:54.:53:00.

all the way in, keeps it going. There was nobody there to help Helen

:53:01.:53:03.

Richardson-Walsh, a fantastic drive, I think we are going to see the

:53:04.:53:09.

Nicola White shot off the back foot, these saved by Briggs, Hannah

:53:10.:53:12.

Macleod tries to put the ball into the danger area, but Dawson in a

:53:13.:53:16.

fantastic covering position. This will fall to McCullen, down on

:53:17.:53:27.

Hernanes, and this is worrying for Great Britain, USA get to the edge

:53:28.:53:32.

of the circle. Wonderful diving tackle from Crista Cullen, who was

:53:33.:53:34.

there to tidy up as well. GB just got away with one there,

:53:35.:53:52.

that did not hit the foot of Dawson, and it wasn't given by the umpire on

:53:53.:53:58.

this side. Cullen looking for hours Lee, who has done well, but beaten

:53:59.:54:05.

to the ball by Crandall. Sharp stick work by the Americans. Katelyn

:54:06.:54:15.

Falgowski did really well to bring three GB players onto her, then

:54:16.:54:25.

releasing the ball. Dawson to Crandall, who is bouncing as is

:54:26.:54:30.

difficult to control. There is a decent break on, shot, score, USA

:54:31.:54:37.

lead! Michelle Vittese scores the first goal of the match. That is

:54:38.:54:41.

exactly what we were talking about, the speed at which they break his

:54:42.:54:47.

sensational, the shell that is gets the ball first, a long ball by

:54:48.:54:51.

Lauren Crandall, bouncing in the area. -- Michelle Vittese. You can

:54:52.:54:58.

see Maddie Hinch is potentially in two minds, because there is a USA

:54:59.:55:05.

forward, Sharkey, out wide, but only one thing on Vittese's mind, she is

:55:06.:55:10.

shaping as if she's going to play to Maddie Hinchright-hand side. 1-0 to

:55:11.:55:17.

the USA, possibly against the run of play, but that is what it means to

:55:18.:55:23.

this team. Great Britain 0, USA 1, Michelle Vittese scores for the USA.

:55:24.:55:30.

Now, Great Britain attempting to fight back straightaway, Sam Quek on

:55:31.:55:34.

the field now, back to Kate Richardson-Walsh. Ansley, Helen

:55:35.:55:45.

Richardson-Walsh with a flick to Townsend, threatening, weaving,

:55:46.:55:50.

left, right and centre, cannot find a way through, so back they go.

:55:51.:56:05.

Great Britain's ball, still. Sam Quek in space on the right, good

:56:06.:56:19.

pass to Quek. Back they go, via Webb to Townsend, who lets it a run,

:56:20.:56:24.

picks it up into the circle, dangerous position, Owsley covers

:56:25.:56:33.

the ground, no penalty corner given. Again, it is great play by GB,

:56:34.:56:38.

Stefanie Fee is here, doing the defending, does just get a touch on

:56:39.:56:40.

the ball. Fee, number 2 for USA, looking for

:56:41.:57:03.

Van Sickle, but it has come out by Townsend, Van Sickle with the free

:57:04.:57:08.

hit. Bam on the burst, looking for a way to the edge of the circle, fired

:57:09.:57:13.

in, USA stick, eventually pushed behind out of danger. That was Shona

:57:14.:57:21.

McCallin. Good play by Shona McCallin, Jill Witmer and was

:57:22.:57:25.

lurking in behind, managed to get the touch on it. Not a good chap on

:57:26.:57:36.

the right, Owsley had too many jabs at the ball, lost the chance to

:57:37.:57:40.

break quickly, but rate Britons still have possession. A yellow card

:57:41.:57:45.

for Reinprecht for knocking the ball away, she will miss the remaining

:57:46.:57:52.

four minutes of this quarter. A promising four and a half minute

:57:53.:57:54.

stretch coming up for Great Britain with a player over, but Van Sickle

:57:55.:58:00.

has burst away clearly at the edge of the field, they will lose a few

:58:01.:58:05.

seconds, it would be a power play in ice hockey with a player over. Good

:58:06.:58:09.

from Helen Richardson-Walsh, always exciting when she starts to move at

:58:10.:58:15.

pace, now she looks up and finds Bray, whose first touches a poor

:58:16.:58:23.

one. It is about doing the simple things for me now, Great Britain,

:58:24.:58:26.

Sophie Bray could have gone around the outside of Melissa Gonzalez, she

:58:27.:58:31.

is quick, but she tried to put the ball over. Witmer has found a really

:58:32.:58:37.

solid ball in, and Michelle Kasold was not far away from putting Maddie

:58:38.:58:44.

Hinch under pressure again. Yeah, Kasold had got on the wrong side of

:58:45.:58:48.

Georgie Twigg, who was struggling to get back, maybe just felt the

:58:49.:58:51.

pressure and could not execute the deflection. Quek for Great Britain,

:58:52.:58:56.

Unsworth. Four Great Britain players forward,

:58:57.:59:10.

including Sophie Bray, who is down in the corner now.

:59:11.:59:29.

And this trap from Sam Quek but no damage done. Hollie Webb is there.

:59:30.:59:41.

She presses forward. This is where they need to tip the ball around at

:59:42.:59:46.

the back. A flick from Alex Danson, hoping to run it on to her

:59:47.:59:54.

team-mate. MacLeod has done well. Nicola White thought about going

:59:55.:59:57.

forward and now does so. That is done. It almost worked out for

:59:58.:00:05.

Nichola White, but pushed it just a yard too far. It is one thing to be

:00:06.:00:11.

patient, as the British players have the ball around the back but they

:00:12.:00:18.

have to move the ball at speed. They have two move the ball around to

:00:19.:00:19.

come away with three points. Laura Unsworth gets the free hit but

:00:20.:00:33.

thought it might have merited a card. One minute and a half left in

:00:34.:00:39.

the third quarter. Great Britain zero, USA one. Georgie Twigg.

:00:40.:00:52.

It came off the 's shins so it will be a USA free hit. There would be

:00:53.:01:14.

too much of a rush. A tight turn from Kathleen Sharke. Lansley did

:01:15.:01:21.

really well there not to get spun. She knew she was the last defender

:01:22.:01:26.

and if Kathleen Sharke got around her she had the brood into the goal.

:01:27.:01:36.

Great Britain have a chance to break out quickly but with 30 seconds left

:01:37.:01:43.

in the quarter they are just going to keep possession, and take us

:01:44.:01:49.

through to the hooter. Unless Townsend can set them up but I think

:01:50.:01:52.

they are probably out of time now to get near to the USA circle. The last

:01:53.:02:05.

ten seconds. Sophie Bray looks for Susannah Townsend and they might

:02:06.:02:08.

just run out of time before they can get on a shooting position. The

:02:09.:02:12.

hooter sounds to single the end of the third period, a period in which

:02:13.:02:17.

the USA got off the mark, with a goal from Michelle Vittese. The

:02:18.:02:22.

score here, Great Britain zero, USA one.

:02:23.:02:28.

We shall be back with Matt and mouth for the remainder of that match. The

:02:29.:02:33.

final quarter of that match but we will go to live boxing at some stage

:02:34.:02:38.

for you as well. Thank you to the likes of Paul Ross and Marvin who

:02:39.:02:41.

say they are sticking with BBC Four because they love the hockey. Thank

:02:42.:02:46.

you for that. We will see what else is available at the moment in terms

:02:47.:02:51.

of Olympic sport at the moment. On the Red Button we have the

:02:52.:02:54.

continuing gold-medal match for the women in the tennis. Angelique

:02:55.:02:59.

Kerber against Monica Puig and they are approaching the end of the

:03:00.:03:03.

second set at the moment. It is available if you click on the Red

:03:04.:03:07.

Button right now. Angelique Kerber is 5-4 up in that second set. Boxing

:03:08.:03:12.

is on the website if you want to follow it, or by the BBC sport app.

:03:13.:03:17.

That is Joe Joyce loosening up and he is a super heavyweight at the

:03:18.:03:20.

Commonwealth champion and he is fighting in about ten minutes time.

:03:21.:03:24.

We will have live boxing coming up very shortly on BBC Four. We are

:03:25.:03:31.

here on day eight of the Olympic Games and it has just gone 7pm here

:03:32.:03:35.

in Rio. The wind has picked up on the beach is virtually deserted,

:03:36.:03:40.

apart from, what is going on there? I'm not sure. It might be late-night

:03:41.:03:43.

circuit training and kids flying their kite 's as well. In terms of

:03:44.:03:49.

timings for this evening there are things to remind you of because it

:03:50.:03:54.

is a 11am at -- 11pm at home and some of you are expecting a late

:03:55.:04:00.

night. At 1230 on BBC One will be the javelin, their penultimate event

:04:01.:04:14.

on the heptathlon. At 1am back home Greg Rutherford goes in the men's

:04:15.:04:20.

long jump with two fouls in qualifying, he just sneaked through

:04:21.:04:23.

but here's in the final and can he do what he achieved four years ago?

:04:24.:04:30.

At 1:30am Mo Farah goes in the 10,000 metres so it is all crammed

:04:31.:04:34.

together, just as it was on Super Saturday in London. At 215 AM it is

:04:35.:04:41.

the final event of the heptathlon, can Jessica Ennis Hill when this

:04:42.:04:45.

gold-medal once again? That is the 800 metres. Swimming continues

:04:46.:04:48.

through the night as well. Fran Halsall at about 2am has a chance

:04:49.:04:58.

for a medal and also at 3am is the final ever Olympic event for Michael

:04:59.:05:03.

Phelps with a 22 gold medals for the great American and he goes against

:05:04.:05:06.

Team GB who have qualified fastest in the medley relay. That is at 3am.

:05:07.:05:13.

Adam Peaty against James Guy. That is a bit of USA against Team GB and

:05:14.:05:18.

that is what we return to the hockey field as well, with a Team GB a goal

:05:19.:05:20.

behind. Early pressure from the USA and

:05:21.:05:35.

thankfully the final touch was a mystery with a foot and Jill Witmer

:05:36.:05:39.

was unable to make a a final connection. 13.5 minutes of the

:05:40.:05:46.

match remain and whoever wins this will finish top of the group and

:05:47.:05:49.

therefore in paper get the easiest fixture in the quarterfinals, but

:05:50.:05:56.

that is just on paper. Nobody knows who will be finishing first at the

:05:57.:06:01.

moment. Spain occupied a position but China still have a game at the

:06:02.:06:05.

moment and if they win they could go second so the other group is a

:06:06.:06:10.

nightmare to work out. It is wide open at the moment. Both Great

:06:11.:06:13.

Britain and the USA have qualified for the quarterfinals and it is all

:06:14.:06:20.

about maintaining a 100% winning record and getting maximum points.

:06:21.:06:23.

At the moment the United States lead Great Britain by one goal to zero. I

:06:24.:06:30.

think this game is also about momentum rather than necessarily the

:06:31.:06:34.

point that go on the board. It is about the performance. You can't

:06:35.:06:38.

expect to pay -- play your best hockey in the quarterfinals if you

:06:39.:06:40.

haven't played in the pool stages. Sam Quek will begin all over again.

:06:41.:07:01.

Nichola White runs into space and then heads back. She was well

:07:02.:07:11.

shielded. Sam Quek. Nice stick work from Sam Quek. Skilfully out of the

:07:12.:07:19.

tangle. Lili Owsley doing well, to the edge of the circle. Very limited

:07:20.:07:26.

shooting opportunities in this game so far for Great Britain. And

:07:27.:07:33.

anything they have had each Jackie Briggs has been in terrific form in

:07:34.:07:36.

the USA goal and sometimes when your goalkeeper is play like that it

:07:37.:07:39.

breeds so much confidence through the rest of the team. Unsworth had

:07:40.:07:45.

to make that trap and she did, she has been so reliable throughout the

:07:46.:07:47.

tournament, Laura Unsworth. A perfect pass forward. Owsley

:07:48.:08:06.

steams through but the American number eight, Rachel Dawson, watched

:08:07.:08:07.

every step of the way. Can then it forward to Helen

:08:08.:08:23.

Richardson-Walsh. It just missed Helen 's stick.

:08:24.:08:33.

British fans are starting to make a bit of noise in an effort to

:08:34.:08:42.

encourage a decent final ten minutes from the British team. A couple of

:08:43.:08:45.

goals needed. Melissa Gonzalez, over the stick of

:08:46.:09:01.

Crista Cullen. She gets into the circle and Hinch will have to boot

:09:02.:09:04.

it away and do so effectively as far as Townsend. Helen Richardson-Walsh

:09:05.:09:17.

back defends it. Everybody apart from Danson and she is coming back

:09:18.:09:20.

to help shore up the defence as well as the Americans charge forward.

:09:21.:09:28.

Michelle Vittese is going to now sit down on the naughty step. The yellow

:09:29.:09:35.

card. So, five minutes suspension for the American goal-scorer. This

:09:36.:09:41.

could be a big five minutes for Great Britain. There is a shove in

:09:42.:09:47.

the back of Shona McCallin, there is no doubt about that but Michelle

:09:48.:09:51.

Vittese is absolutely flying with the ball and Shona McAllen stood her

:09:52.:09:58.

ground as she should do and I don't understand how Michelle Vittese

:09:59.:10:01.

should stop but these umpires have umpired the game exceptionally well

:10:02.:10:03.

and they have allowed certain things to happen and they have allowed the

:10:04.:10:09.

players to play hockey. Kane Richardson was having to backtrack.

:10:10.:10:16.

-- Kate Richardson-Walsh having to backtrack. A nice aerial ball, in

:10:17.:10:25.

search of Alex Danson. I do agree with you, it's a massive five for

:10:26.:10:30.

GB. If they can get one on the board while the US are down to ten

:10:31.:10:33.

outfield players, nine outfield players in fact, it could be an

:10:34.:10:42.

interesting final few minutes. That was meant for Alex Danson but it hit

:10:43.:10:46.

a couple of American sticks on its way. Georgie Twigg pokes that

:10:47.:10:52.

through for Danson. Dawson is a little quicker to the ball.

:10:53.:11:06.

Katherine Reinprecht. That was held up by colour. Crista Cullen uses all

:11:07.:11:14.

her wisdom and experience to keep the danger to a minimum.

:11:15.:11:36.

Sam Quek on the left was unable to trap the ball which was a bit of a

:11:37.:11:42.

bouncer from Kate Richardson-Walsh. That has fallen kindly for Danson

:11:43.:11:46.

who runs into space and feet Susannah Townsend, knocked forward

:11:47.:11:51.

to Hollie Webb. Web flicks it back to Townsend and now they are on the

:11:52.:11:57.

edge. Sophie Bray keeps it going and can she get a shot on goal? Penalty

:11:58.:12:03.

corner, Great Britain. Great linkup play from Townsend and Hollie Webb

:12:04.:12:06.

to set up this opportunity but brilliant skills from Sophie Bray to

:12:07.:12:13.

lift the ball there. The whistle went before Sophie Bray make contact

:12:14.:12:17.

with that shot. A lot of excitement from the support staff. He almost

:12:18.:12:24.

cracked a smile, didn't he? Yes, Danny Kerry is generally poker-faced

:12:25.:12:31.

in the stands. Hannah Macleod is stepping over to inject this ball.

:12:32.:12:41.

And then it will either be Kate Richardson-Walsh or Giselle Ansley

:12:42.:12:45.

to try and drag flick it towards the US gold. Here we go, the Great

:12:46.:12:51.

Britain penalty corner. Giselle Ansley, slid inside, it's pushed

:12:52.:12:56.

home. Final touch from Sophie Bray. Sophie Bray 's goal, it's 1-1!

:12:57.:13:04.

We will come back and show you any more goals in the hockey but we

:13:05.:13:08.

promised you some live boxing so it is one one between Team GB and the

:13:09.:13:13.

USA with just a few minutes left, but Joe Joyce is about to step into

:13:14.:13:16.

the ring in the superheavyweight division and we have some pedigree.

:13:17.:13:21.

He is in the ring right now so I will cross straight over to Richie

:13:22.:13:25.

Woodhall and Rob McIntosh to talk us through this one. The opening bell

:13:26.:13:33.

sounds in this second preliminary round in the tournament between

:13:34.:13:37.

boxers from Great Britain and Kate their day, the man wearing red is

:13:38.:13:42.

Great Britain 's Joe Joyce, six feet tall and 30 years of age and ranked

:13:43.:13:46.

number three in the world and the tournament number three seed. His

:13:47.:13:50.

opponent is Davilson Dos Santos Morais, 27 years of age from Kate

:13:51.:13:54.

Thursday, the lone representative of the Cape Verde boxing team, who has

:13:55.:14:01.

just been hit by a long right hand, the man in blue. He has a

:14:02.:14:06.

considerable size disadvantage in terms of height and reach and bulk

:14:07.:14:10.

and he is not the most experienced of boxers. A three-time national

:14:11.:14:16.

champion of tape -- Cape Verde" fight for his first Olympic Games

:14:17.:14:20.

fire the African qualification tournament, where he finished

:14:21.:14:26.

outside the automatic qualification places but was given a spot because

:14:27.:14:29.

the Moroccan representative was unable to take up his place. He is

:14:30.:14:33.

breathing heavily already and his body language is not good. Does he

:14:34.:14:41.

have a bit of the ODI? There's something wrong. The ringside boxer

:14:42.:14:46.

has been called up immediately to make the expections. -- does he have

:14:47.:14:57.

a bit of a Nick over the eye? This is an introduction to elite boxing

:14:58.:15:02.

for Davilson Dos Santos Morais. Joe Joyce has to work behind his jab

:15:03.:15:06.

here and settle into the contest. He has come out with bad intentions and

:15:07.:15:10.

we know here's a bit of a handful. He has to uses jab and his uppercut.

:15:11.:15:14.

This fella in front of him keep dipping his head, so use the jab and

:15:15.:15:18.

bring the upper cut through the middle, that's what Joyce has got to

:15:19.:15:22.

do. It had to wait a long time for this contest so he is a big eager

:15:23.:15:32.

and bring the right uppercut through all the straight right hand. He's a

:15:33.:15:38.

bit out of range so he must use the leading hand and work through jab

:15:39.:15:40.

early on. Plenty of aggressive intent being

:15:41.:15:48.

demonstrated by the man in blue from Cape Verde. Joe Joyce, the reigning

:15:49.:15:56.

Commonwealth Games gold medallist, reigning European Games gold

:15:57.:16:03.

medallist, if he starts to extend the ramrod left hand, it could be a

:16:04.:16:07.

painful price to play for the man in blue. And the man in blue is cached

:16:08.:16:12.

already, he is on rubbery legs, and I am not sure if he will survive

:16:13.:16:16.

until the end of the round or make it to the end of round two. A cut

:16:17.:16:22.

above the left eye, is body language is not good, I think Joe Joyce could

:16:23.:16:26.

help himself to some free shots here. Only courage keeping the man

:16:27.:16:39.

in blue up, his unsteady legs, Dos Santos Morais can barely maintain

:16:40.:16:43.

his boxing stance, caught in between the ropes, he is clubbed to the

:16:44.:16:47.

canvas with a brutal roundhouse right! Right at the end of the

:16:48.:16:52.

round, that has capped off a perfect round for Joe Joyce, I do not know

:16:53.:16:56.

whether he will beat the count. The reverie cause it off, that is it, on

:16:57.:17:03.

his Olympic debut, Joe Joyce gets the job done in clinical fashion.

:17:04.:17:11.

The man from Cape Verde, Davilson Dos Santos Morais, clubbed into

:17:12.:17:15.

submission, the shots were wearing him down, eventually they bought a

:17:16.:17:18.

standing count, and with the final punch of the opening round, a

:17:19.:17:23.

roundhouse right that was delivered from last week, he ran headlong into

:17:24.:17:28.

it, Dos Santos Morais, and he did not have the energy to remain

:17:29.:17:32.

upright. He got up and beat the count, but the referee, after taking

:17:33.:17:37.

a close look into his eyes, has waved off the contest.

:17:38.:17:41.

He catches him with a punch quite high on the Temple, Joe Joyce, and

:17:42.:17:44.

that scrambles the senses of a boxer. It was a perfect round for

:17:45.:17:52.

Joyce, he hit the target with everything he threw there, starting

:17:53.:17:55.

to settle into it as the round went on, he will be really pleased, very

:17:56.:18:03.

good indeed, knocking his opponent out.

:18:04.:18:10.

Ladies and gentlemen, the winner by technical knockout... So we are

:18:11.:18:20.

awaiting the confirmation of the emphatic first round we have just

:18:21.:18:24.

seen there, just waiting for Joe Joyce's hand to be raised, and all

:18:25.:18:30.

those who got very angry for leaving the hockey, thank you to Joe Joyce

:18:31.:18:33.

for putting in a sparkling performance but also allowing us to

:18:34.:18:36.

get back to the hockey, and there has been a goal since we left it. It

:18:37.:18:42.

was 1-1 between Team GB and the USA, this is what has happened since we

:18:43.:18:46.

left. Helen Richardson-Walsh, Webb. Webb

:18:47.:18:58.

to Sam Quek, she fires it through, it is a goal for Alex Danson! The

:18:59.:19:06.

goal definitely stands, the USA are really, not happy at the moment,

:19:07.:19:12.

they are chirping the umpire at every opportunity possible. Not sure

:19:13.:19:15.

if the umpire is going to go for the umpire referral or not, it does not

:19:16.:19:22.

look like it. Oh, no need, fantastic touch on the far post, brilliance

:19:23.:19:28.

delivery by Sam Quek. What a turnaround, straight back to

:19:29.:19:34.

Mel and Matt for the closing stages. Last two and a half minutes of the

:19:35.:19:40.

match, Great Britain lead 2-1. Alex Danson has just got her third goal

:19:41.:19:47.

of the tournament. Kate Richardson-Walsh has taken one in a

:19:48.:19:56.

painful part of the body. Able to love it off, not thing as painful as

:19:57.:20:01.

the broken jaw she suffered in London 2012. -- able to laugh it

:20:02.:20:08.

off, nothing as painful. She recovered from that and helped Great

:20:09.:20:13.

Britain win a bronze medal. Last two minutes of the match, Georgie Twigg

:20:14.:20:18.

is on the sin bin seats for a yellow card, so she will not return to the

:20:19.:20:22.

match, which means that for the remainder it is 11 versus ten here.

:20:23.:20:27.

Maddie Hinch, left foot, clears it comfortably.

:20:28.:20:35.

USA into the circle, and they get a penalty corner. It is a brilliant

:20:36.:20:44.

spin by Michelle the tears, she rolls Crista Cullen, sets up

:20:45.:20:49.

fantastically well. That Michelle Vittese. She is so quick, she spins

:20:50.:20:54.

inside, and right about now you get the stick tackle, the umpire decides

:20:55.:20:59.

there is no advantage, penalty corner. Rachel Dawson on the

:21:00.:21:05.

left-hand side as we look now, she is the drag flicker, Lauren Crandall

:21:06.:21:12.

tends to be the hit player on the other side. Dawson or Crandall, the

:21:13.:21:18.

targets here as the USA attempt to draw level, penalty corner and away.

:21:19.:21:26.

-- under way. Another penalty corner, although Great Britain,

:21:27.:21:31.

well, a limited protest, I think it was a clear British foot on the

:21:32.:21:36.

ball. I think the umpire was unsighted, but Crandall was going

:21:37.:21:41.

for the referral is not. But brilliance defence by Laura Unsworth

:21:42.:21:45.

back there. She gets really low, her stick is on the floor, and she owns

:21:46.:21:49.

the space. Crandall and Dawson have switched sides. In it comes, Dawson

:21:50.:21:57.

again, saved by Maddie Hinch, and clear. Now, a chance for Great

:21:58.:22:00.

Britain to break! Townsend and Danson. All the way to the corner,

:22:01.:22:09.

she sensibly holds it up, Danson, last 90 seconds of the match, still

:22:10.:22:13.

British possession, Danson in no hurry. Georgie Twigg still a

:22:14.:22:18.

spectator, and that is where she will remain for the rest of the

:22:19.:22:20.

match. Kate Richardson-Walsh in support,

:22:21.:22:40.

Townsend happy to wriggle her way back down field. Now, another yellow

:22:41.:22:51.

card is being produced. She has given the yellow card to Susannah

:22:52.:22:55.

Townsend, she blew her whistle, I don't think Townsend heard it, she

:22:56.:22:59.

carried on playing, knocking the ball away, so GB have lost two

:23:00.:23:05.

players with a minutes to go. Final 45 seconds, Great Britain are that

:23:06.:23:11.

close to maximum points and five wins out of five in the Olympic

:23:12.:23:19.

hockey tournament. And into the last 30 seconds, there will be no rush to

:23:20.:23:22.

restart here. Aerial ball coming up. Aerial ball

:23:23.:23:35.

from Giselle Ansley, way down field, plucked out of the night sky. Ten

:23:36.:23:44.

seconds to go. And Great Britain have possession, and Great Britain

:23:45.:23:48.

will have the victory! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

:23:49.:23:55.

The final hooter sounds, maximum points, five wins out of five, Great

:23:56.:23:59.

Britain are the top team in the Olympic tournament, final words

:24:00.:24:05.

being exchanged between umpire and American captain, but it matters

:24:06.:24:09.

not, Great Britain have got the job done, and they came from one goal

:24:10.:24:14.

down. Sophie Bray got the first, and then Alex Danson was there to score

:24:15.:24:19.

Great Britain's is excellent, excellent goalkeeping from Maddie

:24:20.:24:26.

Hinch. Game of hockey, a brilliant advert for the sport, controversy,

:24:27.:24:31.

cards, goals, corners, two of the top teams that have been on fire in

:24:32.:24:35.

this tournament, and the mental, I guess, strength of the GB team, to

:24:36.:24:44.

come from 1-0 down to win 2-1, that is really positive as we enter the

:24:45.:24:48.

knockout stages. Great Britain will find out who they play in the

:24:49.:24:52.

quarterfinals, the fourth placed team from Poole A, the bottom

:24:53.:24:58.

qualifier. The Americans have acquitted themselves well throughout

:24:59.:25:02.

the tournament, but beaten tonight, Great Britain have beaten the USA by

:25:03.:25:14.

2-1. DAN: Confirmation of the standings,

:25:15.:25:19.

a perfect record for GB, they will find out, and we will inform you of

:25:20.:25:22.

who they will play in the quarterfinals a little bit later.

:25:23.:25:27.

You can see why the Americans were a little bit miffed, not happy with

:25:28.:25:30.

some of the decisions, but Mel Clewlow summed it up perfectly.

:25:31.:25:35.

Incredible performance, incredible comeback from the bronze medallist

:25:36.:25:40.

four years ago. We will try to get some reaction later, but I have to

:25:41.:25:44.

tell you about what is on BBC One, the build-up is all about Super

:25:45.:25:50.

Saturday. The atmosphere was incredible,

:25:51.:25:56.

something I will never experience again in my entire life. Did that

:25:57.:26:02.

really happen? Oh! All that to come, oh, there is

:26:03.:26:18.

the paper gone, my crucial notes! I will have to make the rest up! We

:26:19.:26:22.

were showing you Joe Joyce interrupting the hockey slightly,

:26:23.:26:25.

and it only took in one round, which meant we were able to get back to

:26:26.:26:29.

the hockey, so we are thankful to him, and after the victory he was

:26:30.:26:33.

speaking to us. That looked like a big mismatch, how

:26:34.:26:40.

did you find that? It seemed pretty straightforward, did you expected to

:26:41.:26:45.

be straightforward? Well, yeah, I saw brief footage of him, I think it

:26:46.:26:50.

was just highlights or something, but apparently a story of getting

:26:51.:26:55.

here was, you know, quite lucky, I think he got a bye, and then he went

:26:56.:27:00.

to the next round or something, I think he lost, and then he got to

:27:01.:27:05.

the next round, and the opponent pulled out because of a cuts. He is

:27:06.:27:10.

lucky to be here, and I wanted to get out early, I got him out just

:27:11.:27:15.

before the end, just at the end of the first round. You have been in

:27:16.:27:18.

Rio for quite a while, you have only just got into the ring, how

:27:19.:27:23.

difficult has been to keep yourself fresh and motivated? It is quite

:27:24.:27:27.

tough, like, because I have been here for over two weeks now, and you

:27:28.:27:31.

have to... I don't know, it seems like it is dragging on, but once the

:27:32.:27:36.

boxing started, it goes quicker, it will be quicker from now on. You are

:27:37.:27:42.

one win from a medal, what are your chances? Hopefully good! You are

:27:43.:27:46.

looking to win it, you have said that the forehand. Definitely,

:27:47.:27:53.

getting the performance in, getting the right warm up, the performances

:27:54.:27:56.

on the day, hopefully walking back with the gold medal around my neck.

:27:57.:28:01.

Brilliant, Joe, good luck, see you soon.

:28:02.:28:04.

Well done to Joe Joyce, we will be following him in the super

:28:05.:28:11.

heavyweight division. Floyd Mayweather is in the crowd there,

:28:12.:28:15.

and some of the USA dream team are there as well. We talked a lot about

:28:16.:28:20.

Super Saturday, can you remember what you are doing four years ago? I

:28:21.:28:24.

was covering the Games for the BBC, but that night I had a ticket about

:28:25.:28:28.

ten rows back from near the finishing line, and I saw Jess

:28:29.:28:32.

Ennis-Hill across the line in the 800 metres, Mo Farah in the 10,000,

:28:33.:28:36.

Greg Rutherford doing his business on the far side of the track. I

:28:37.:28:42.

don't mean that! You know exactly what I mean, stop laughing, you lot!

:28:43.:28:47.

You know what I mean, when I say doing his business, I mean winning

:28:48.:28:51.

long jump gold! And we thought what we would do, to set you up for what

:28:52.:28:55.

will happen in the next few hours over on BBC One, we would get Eddie

:28:56.:29:01.

Butler to describe what could be another memorable night for British

:29:02.:29:02.

athletics. leading hand and work through jab

:29:03.:29:04.

early on. The Stadium erupts. Three gold

:29:05.:29:21.

medals for Britain. What a night! What a night. One never to be

:29:22.:29:27.

forgotten. But that was then, life goes on, the world keeps turning, so

:29:28.:29:33.

what came next? Just one year later at the World Championships in

:29:34.:29:37.

Moscow, those home comforts of London seem to do is menu -- distant

:29:38.:29:42.

memory. Frustration for Greg Rutherford, injured and failing to

:29:43.:29:48.

make the long jump final. Jessica Ennis Hill, also injured, didn't

:29:49.:29:53.

even go to Moscow. All down with them to Mo Farah, the last of the

:29:54.:29:59.

golden trio. He is sprinting for gold, he is running for greatness!

:30:00.:30:04.

Double gold in the 5000 and 10,000 metres, Great Britain 's most

:30:05.:30:08.

decorated athlete in history, stretching out, forging ahead. This

:30:09.:30:17.

is world domination four farad! -- for Mo Farah! Until the following

:30:18.:30:26.

April, new challenge, a different distance on these familiar London

:30:27.:30:33.

streets, and are not out in front. And when Glasgow welcomes the

:30:34.:30:37.

Commonwealth in the summer, Mo Farah missed out, is turn to be injured.

:30:38.:30:42.

Jessica Ennis Hill was happier not to be in Glasgow, she was about to

:30:43.:30:47.

welcome her first son, Ritchie, to the world. For Greater Glasgow would

:30:48.:30:52.

be a point of restart. Greg Rutherford is the Commonwealth

:30:53.:31:00.

champion. He added the European title to his collection. Also in

:31:01.:31:04.

ceric, Mo Farah was back on the track and completing another double.

:31:05.:31:11.

Meanwhile, as the nights grew longer over Sheffield, Jess returns to

:31:12.:31:16.

training, re-forging a steely athletic will. Time ticking towards

:31:17.:31:27.

Rio. First of the stern test of the World Championships in Beijing. Greg

:31:28.:31:33.

Rutherford one jump a way of joining a special band of Great Britain 's.

:31:34.:31:40.

Rutherford completes his grand slam, Olympic, European, Commonwealth, and

:31:41.:31:44.

now world champion! Mo Farah about to join an even more exclusive club.

:31:45.:31:54.

Mo Farah, the only one in it. Mo Farah is champion again! Jess had

:31:55.:32:00.

eased her way back into competition. Who knew what to expect in Beijing?

:32:01.:32:06.

She had nothing to prove that she proved it anyway. She storms past

:32:07.:32:10.

the Canadian. Jessica Ennis Hill is back on top of the world. Three

:32:11.:32:21.

then, three now. That day is here again. Super Saturday. Type will

:32:22.:32:29.

move on, but might the world be stopped again in its tracks?

:32:30.:32:37.

All, it couldn't happen again, could it? It could. It is on BBC One from

:32:38.:32:43.

about midnight. BBC Two is the athletics and BBC One currently has

:32:44.:32:48.

match of the day with Gary Lineker in his pants. Back at the hockey,

:32:49.:32:55.

Team GB have a perfect record in the group, five wins out of five so let

:32:56.:32:59.

us get some reaction. We have some of the team.

:33:00.:33:06.

I'm down here with the keeper. First of all, Kate, it was difficult to

:33:07.:33:11.

break down the US team but five out of five must be satisfying. Yes, the

:33:12.:33:16.

USA have had a great couple of years and they were top of the pool before

:33:17.:33:19.

this game in this tournament and deservedly so, they are dog-eared

:33:20.:33:23.

and fit and they try and play territory hockey and we had to stop

:33:24.:33:26.

that are known and fit and they try and play territory hockey and we had

:33:27.:33:29.

to stop that unknown force our game onto them. Crista Cullen, your 100th

:33:30.:33:35.

cap. Restore a circle and you got some flowers. Yes, flowers for my

:33:36.:33:42.

100th cap but we didn't get the gold until the end but we are dog-eared

:33:43.:33:47.

in keep them out and we are very flare up front and I am very proud

:33:48.:33:51.

of the girls today. Five wins out of five and what is the field like in

:33:52.:33:55.

the squad right now about your opportunities and your chances of

:33:56.:33:58.

getting a medal again? Good, all the way to our preparation we have said

:33:59.:34:03.

it was one game at a time and in the Olympic qualifier we said that we

:34:04.:34:08.

came with the right mentality. It is boring but we go back to the drawing

:34:09.:34:12.

board and debrief and then onto the next one. Although you have had five

:34:13.:34:16.

out of five it is all reset the quarterfinals. Winning all these

:34:17.:34:19.

matches must be important for momentum. Momentum really does

:34:20.:34:24.

count. That is the thing you have to latch on to accuse any users upon us

:34:25.:34:28.

-- positive force. In every single game we add a bit more to our game

:34:29.:34:32.

and we have shown so many facets of how we can play and we are looking

:34:33.:34:37.

forward to a quarterfinal game. We don't know yet who you will play, it

:34:38.:34:42.

will be the fourth placed team and that is not clear who yet. Does it

:34:43.:34:48.

matter who you play? All the teams had different tactics and it is one

:34:49.:34:51.

game at a time so we will find out who we are playing and then define

:34:52.:34:55.

it and understand how to beat those teams. Quarterfinals are a knockout

:34:56.:34:58.

and we know what we have to do and we will go back to the drawing board

:34:59.:35:01.

and recover and get sorted out and come out all guns blazing. Well done

:35:02.:35:05.

for tonight and thank you very much for your time.

:35:06.:35:10.

Great to get reaction and we do not know yet who they will play in the

:35:11.:35:13.

quarterfinals but we will let you know by the end of the evening. We

:35:14.:35:18.

only had one round of Joe Joyce so we will bring you some other boxing

:35:19.:35:24.

that took place earlier. This is the semifinal of the man who beat

:35:25.:35:33.

Lawrence Okolie. He was seen off by a Cuban, the nephew of Felix Avant

:35:34.:35:41.

in the heavyweight division. Tonight he takes on Vassiliy Levit of

:35:42.:35:56.

Kazakhstan. The Kazakhstan to have been cheering a wonderful display by

:35:57.:36:00.

another boxer but here comes Vassiliy Levit ahead of the 91

:36:01.:36:09.

kilograms semifinal. Representing Cuba... Erislandy Savon! Here is

:36:10.:36:24.

another man looking to book his birth in the gold-medal bout, the

:36:25.:36:31.

estimable Erislandy Savon of Cuba. What a match we have in store here.

:36:32.:36:39.

A real tough nut, Vassiliy Levit, from Kazakhstan, no question. But he

:36:40.:36:43.

has to show a bit more quality tonight against this Cuban.

:36:44.:36:49.

Erislandy Savon is a long-range box and very clever indeed. He's very

:36:50.:36:57.

loose and relaxed. It looks like he is slapping him in the face and

:36:58.:37:01.

telling him to wake up because even a contest but Erislandy Savon is so,

:37:02.:37:12.

calculated. So the opening bell sounds in this 91 kilograms

:37:13.:37:16.

heavyweight semifinal, and what a matchup we have in store here. It

:37:17.:37:22.

features boxers from Cuba and Kazakhstan and a man wearing blue is

:37:23.:37:26.

Erislandy Savon, number two in the world, the tournament number two

:37:27.:37:31.

seed. The shaven headed figure in red is ranked six in the world and

:37:32.:37:35.

the tournament number three seed, Vassiliy Levit from Kazakhstan.

:37:36.:37:40.

These two men met in World Series boxing at the conclusion of series

:37:41.:37:46.

five and it was Erislandy Savon who prevailed by a unanimous decision

:37:47.:37:57.

over the round. A long left from Vassiliy Levit wasn't too far away.

:37:58.:38:07.

The accuracy of the right-hand arm of Erislandy Savon is tremendous. He

:38:08.:38:12.

has a lot of speed and power. For me, Vassiliy Levit, if he stays at

:38:13.:38:15.

middle range against this Cuban, he boxes your ears off, he really does.

:38:16.:38:20.

Vassiliy Levit at some point will have to get up to as manager and

:38:21.:38:24.

rough him up because Erislandy Savon works very well at range and if he

:38:25.:38:35.

dictate the pace he will outbox you say you must rough him up and try

:38:36.:38:40.

and catch downstairs also. The range of means he will pick you off or

:38:41.:38:44.

not. Vassiliy Levit has the tools for the kind of work you are

:38:45.:38:48.

referring to, he is a ragged customer but he looks as though he

:38:49.:38:52.

is looking to box at a distance and that suits Erislandy Savon. If he

:38:53.:38:57.

can get to the long and lean body of Erislandy Savon, that might be why

:38:58.:39:05.

he has slimmed down from super heavyweight. He is in reality is not

:39:06.:39:09.

much smaller now but his torso would be targeted brutally. At this tempo,

:39:10.:39:19.

one suspects he will be backing Erislandy Savon or contest long.

:39:20.:39:26.

Vassiliy Levit does have the guns to do it. It carries power in either

:39:27.:39:35.

hand, does the man in red. There he is showing us a glimpse of what he

:39:36.:39:38.

should be doing here, double jab, double jab in with the feat. Close

:39:39.:39:43.

that gap down and send the bigger right-hand home. When you are

:39:44.:39:47.

waiting like that it allows Erislandy Savon to work on the

:39:48.:39:51.

outside with the jab. He is fairly comfortable and you can see it

:39:52.:39:55.

coming because Vassiliy Levit has pretty slow feet and he has to be

:39:56.:39:58.

quicker with the feet. He needs to double up the jab and take the

:39:59.:40:03.

contest to Erislandy Savon because he is dictating the pace in this

:40:04.:40:09.

round very well indeed. How will the judges score the opening round?

:40:10.:40:14.

Erislandy Savon clearly was the governor inside there and he elects

:40:15.:40:24.

to stand in between sessions. So we know this fella can do it,

:40:25.:40:29.

Vassiliy Levit. That is what he was running into all round long. He has

:40:30.:40:36.

been caught with long-range stuff because he is staying out the side.

:40:37.:40:40.

Here are the scores. I don't know what Judge B is watching, but he

:40:41.:40:45.

gave it to Vassiliy Levit. I thought Erislandy Savon clearly controlled

:40:46.:40:50.

the round. He is 2-1 up and that is a bit of a surprise. But we have

:40:51.:40:53.

seen it a few times today anyway were the judges have gone a

:40:54.:40:57.

different way to what we would have gone. Indeed. Round two. We move

:40:58.:41:12.

into the second round of this 91 kilograms heavyweight semifinal.

:41:13.:41:18.

Both of these men are contesting their third bout of the tournament

:41:19.:41:23.

in this final four stage. Both had byes in the opening round and

:41:24.:41:29.

Erislandy Savon beat Lawrence Okolie from GB and then the Argentinian.

:41:30.:41:35.

The Argentinian was the number seven seed but he was outpointed

:41:36.:41:39.

unanimously. Vassiliy Levit was an aggressive stoppage win over the

:41:40.:41:46.

Chinese youngster in his opening round and any unanimous points

:41:47.:41:53.

decision to the Commonwealth silver medallist out, very good performance

:41:54.:41:57.

of educated boxing. When you watch this man at times in the World

:41:58.:42:01.

Series boxing, he is a rampaging force on the front foot. You see him

:42:02.:42:06.

perhaps trying to get into that type of mode here now. Dipping at the

:42:07.:42:11.

knees and swaying at the waist. We can get into mid-range to land his

:42:12.:42:14.

right hand, which is a particularly potent shot. Maybe they are just

:42:15.:42:24.

wary of the punching power that the other possesses after that first go

:42:25.:42:27.

round in World Series boxing. That is a good right hand from Vassiliy

:42:28.:42:33.

Levit, cracking shot. He has started this round a lot better, Vassiliy

:42:34.:42:37.

Levit, on the front foot and he has put Erislandy Savon under a lot more

:42:38.:42:40.

pressure. This is what the Cadillac should be doing and quick on its

:42:41.:42:44.

feet up and double that jab up a bit. It is a nice shot from Vassiliy

:42:45.:42:50.

Levit. This round has been hit up until now, Vassiliy Levit, and he is

:42:51.:42:54.

boxing very well. Good tempo and good head movement from the man in

:42:55.:42:58.

red. He is boxing when the shot you pointed out there a few moments ago

:42:59.:43:02.

slipped to his left and beat his man to the jab. It was a forceful shot

:43:03.:43:07.

well. Two minutes gone in the second round. Vassiliy Levit shouldn't be

:43:08.:43:16.

satisfied to just stand and hold there. The Cuban stands and holds

:43:17.:43:23.

and Vassiliy Levit has to work away on the inside. Look at Erislandy

:43:24.:43:27.

Savon there, is holding again. He does most of his good work at mid

:43:28.:43:31.

and long range, we know what he is about, but when they come together

:43:32.:43:35.

it is an opportunity for Vassiliy Levit to work on the inside, and he

:43:36.:43:39.

must take it because, let's face it, you get limited opportunities

:43:40.:43:44.

against the Cubans. Very skilful operators indeed, but this Cuban,

:43:45.:43:47.

Erislandy Savon, doesn't like working on the inside. A good right

:43:48.:43:54.

hand from Vassiliy Levit. I thought Erislandy Savon dipped by changing

:43:55.:43:58.

his feet to face Levitz near the ropes.

:43:59.:44:08.

A good round of boxing from the man in red. Erislandy Savon not as

:44:09.:44:15.

effective as it was in the opening round and, remember, despite his

:44:16.:44:19.

effectiveness in row number one, he has only taken it 2-1, with Judge B

:44:20.:44:24.

favouring the work of Vassiliy Levit in the opening round. It is a

:44:25.:44:29.

different corner now, the Cuban corner. I wouldn't say they are

:44:30.:44:35.

panicking that at the same time there is a bit more urgency about

:44:36.:44:41.

that corner. That is a nice right there for Vassiliy Levit. He makes

:44:42.:44:44.

his opponent miss with the jab and he comes back with the right hand,

:44:45.:44:47.

that's lovely boxing. A different angle there. A super shot from

:44:48.:44:54.

Vassiliy Levit. And the scores across the board for Vassiliy Levit.

:44:55.:44:59.

So now, well, we do have an interesting last round here now.

:45:00.:45:00.

Most certainly. And there is confirmation, the

:45:01.:45:10.

semaphore being communicated to the Cuban, they will have passed that on

:45:11.:45:15.

to Savon, he knows what he has to do, and I am sure similar was

:45:16.:45:20.

communicated to Levit's corner. This has come down to a one round shoot

:45:21.:45:25.

out, one round of peace after Levit swept the board with effective

:45:26.:45:35.

boxing in round number two. -- round apiece. Remember, Cuba are very much

:45:36.:45:40.

the governors of this heavyweight division, looking to win their

:45:41.:45:46.

eighth gold medal in this event and begin to emulate the accomplishments

:45:47.:45:50.

of his ankle. That is one of the burdens that come with having that

:45:51.:45:54.

family name, Savon. But right now he has to lay everything on the line,

:45:55.:45:58.

he is holding him when he gets close, but he has to get to work

:45:59.:46:02.

with that wonderful left hand that range. Who wants this more? It could

:46:03.:46:08.

come down to that. Who can implement their style and tactics in this

:46:09.:46:15.

remaining two minutes? Savon has got to concentrate on the accuracy as

:46:16.:46:19.

his opponent comes forward, starting to come forward more on the front

:46:20.:46:24.

foot now. Savon is not so effective, so he has to improve that right

:46:25.:46:29.

hand, the accuracy with it. Around the back of the head again from

:46:30.:46:33.

Savon, that is not good enough, I am afraid. Levit is going forward. Now

:46:34.:46:38.

this is a little bit better from both boxers, getting scrappy from

:46:39.:46:42.

Levit, going forward, remember, without double jab that he throws,

:46:43.:46:53.

the long left hook, and Savon does not work on the inside. He did land

:46:54.:46:55.

a good left-right combination, cracking uppercut from Savon before

:46:56.:47:00.

the boxers fall into a clinch. Final minute of an absorbing contest to

:47:01.:47:12.

find out who will join Tishchenko in the final. Both boxers have to

:47:13.:47:16.

summon up the reserves of energy, the reserves that champions can

:47:17.:47:20.

access on demand when the going gets tough. You get the impression that

:47:21.:47:25.

Savon, holding on the inside, is feeling the pace. They both are, but

:47:26.:47:33.

Savon is feeling the pace, ... Who can produce a grandstand finish in

:47:34.:47:38.

this final 30 seconds? Savon ex sailing with every shot, it is

:47:39.:47:42.

audible from the commentary position a fair distance away. -- ex. It

:47:43.:47:52.

could come down to this. Who can find the last bit of quality that

:47:53.:47:56.

may sway this one way or the other? Last ten seconds, who can do it?

:47:57.:48:08.

Right hand attempted by Savon, the ropes straining, the two boxers fall

:48:09.:48:13.

into them, my goodness, let's give you a reminder of how things stand

:48:14.:48:18.

going into the third and final round. Judges A and C have it one

:48:19.:48:26.

round apiece, 19 points, Judge B has this man two rounds to the good

:48:27.:48:29.

after he was fortuitously given that round by that judge. In the third

:48:30.:48:34.

and final round they both went for it. They did indeed, the Cubans

:48:35.:48:42.

there just saying, keep it along with that right hand, and he replied

:48:43.:48:46.

with that shot. It really is a close contest now. It could go either way.

:48:47.:48:56.

I just think Levit might just have nicked it here. But it is close. I

:48:57.:49:03.

will go red. Ladies and gentlemen, the winner by

:49:04.:49:16.

unanimous decision... In the red corner, Vassiliy Levit! Well, as

:49:17.:49:24.

soon as you heard the word unanimous, you knew it was Levit's

:49:25.:49:29.

hand that was going to be raised, he had a two point advantage from Judge

:49:30.:49:36.

B, and the other judges gave him the third and final round. Confirmation

:49:37.:49:40.

of the final score, Vassiliy Levit goes through to the gold medal bout,

:49:41.:49:45.

a unanimous points decision winner, taking the third and final round

:49:46.:49:50.

across-the-board. He scores a unanimous points decision win over

:49:51.:49:56.

Erislandy Savon. Some quality boxing on BBC 4, and

:49:57.:50:00.

just to let you know what is happening on BBC One at the moment,

:50:01.:50:04.

you can watch this on the Red Button, it is the gold medal match

:50:05.:50:08.

in the women's singles, Monica Puig is actually serving to win this.

:50:09.:50:15.

This would be Puerto Rico first-ever Olympic gold medal. She has been

:50:16.:50:19.

speaking this week about how important would be for a country

:50:20.:50:23.

that has been going through tough times. She has been well supported

:50:24.:50:27.

tonight, taking on Angelique Kerber, who knocked out Heather Watson, she

:50:28.:50:31.

was a Wimbledon finalist this year, and many thought she would go on to

:50:32.:50:36.

win this Engels title. But Monica Puig has done it! What a moment,

:50:37.:50:43.

what a moment for Puig, what a moment for Puerto Rico. We have just

:50:44.:50:48.

dipped into it at the right time, we will even there, but you can see the

:50:49.:50:52.

celebrations on the Red Button and on BBC One at the moment as well. We

:50:53.:50:57.

are going to have a little wander down to the beach, because people

:50:58.:51:01.

often say, well, you have not been moaning, but there have been

:51:02.:51:06.

comments about having Copacabana on your doorstep and not showing us

:51:07.:51:10.

much about it! This is why, look at how steep it is down to the sea. It

:51:11.:51:15.

becomes a little bit deadly, you are not allowed to swim in it today,

:51:16.:51:19.

there is a red flag, hardly anybody has been out. You can see how

:51:20.:51:24.

powerful it is, and some of the waves, I know it is dark at there,

:51:25.:51:30.

but look how gruesome it would be... Look at that, that is powerful,

:51:31.:51:35.

isn't it? That is the might of the Atlantic Ocean. They do serve here

:51:36.:51:38.

during the day, and just around the corner from us you can see the fort

:51:39.:51:43.

in the far distance. Watch the issues, everyone! Just around the

:51:44.:51:48.

corner from that, if anime beach goes at right angles to Copacabana,

:51:49.:51:52.

and that is sometimes even more popular as a surfing beach, the

:51:53.:51:58.

waves get bigger. One of the beach volleyball stars who was taking part

:51:59.:52:02.

earlier, one of the Brazilians actually lives on in -- on Ipanema

:52:03.:52:14.

beach. Athletics and swimming is what people will mostly be watching

:52:15.:52:18.

on BBC One, so we thought we would try to build up some of the tension

:52:19.:52:23.

and magic of Super Saturday. It will be happening through the night back

:52:24.:52:26.

home, but Jessica Ennis-Hill is going for gold in the heptathlon,

:52:27.:52:33.

and it is another night filled with potential for Mo Farah. He is going

:52:34.:52:37.

for the Olympic double double, tonight it is all about the 10,000

:52:38.:52:44.

metres. That is at 1:30 your time, and in the build-up to the Games he

:52:45.:52:47.

sat down with a man who knows all about winning the big race.

:52:48.:52:58.

Yeah, good to go! How do you find running? I always loved football,

:52:59.:53:08.

even when I was a little kid, we used to get loads of socks and bags,

:53:09.:53:14.

rapid round, we used to play with that, just go down the street, have

:53:15.:53:18.

a kick around, that was it. I used to have quite a lot of energy, just

:53:19.:53:26.

running around. I joined my father in Britain, in the UK, and I moved

:53:27.:53:30.

here at the age of eight, not speaking a word of English. Was that

:53:31.:53:35.

stuff? It was tough at times, you get through it, it taught me to be

:53:36.:53:44.

grateful for what I do. Some of those experiences when you were a

:53:45.:53:49.

young kid, good or bad, how they shaped you today, not just as a

:53:50.:53:53.

runner, but as a person, as a father, as a man. Sometimes it is

:53:54.:53:58.

hard, because now I am a father of four kids, and I spend so much time

:53:59.:54:03.

away from them, it is difficult. The best thing for me is winning medals,

:54:04.:54:07.

and I will continue doing that and getting out, it is worth all of that

:54:08.:54:11.

sacrifice, and that is what really drives me. 2006, 2007, hearing he is

:54:12.:54:22.

great, got this great potential, and I am going, OK, yeah, well, when is

:54:23.:54:27.

it going to come? 2008 you didn't even make the final. But then in

:54:28.:54:31.

London, amazing performance, and you have been dominating since then,

:54:32.:54:35.

what was the difference in fully realising that potential? There was

:54:36.:54:40.

a lot of stuff I was missing, I was missing the coach who could help you

:54:41.:54:43.

to the next medal, someone who could talk to you, but you through like

:54:44.:54:48.

Alberto has done, changing me as an athlete. There was obviously some

:54:49.:54:57.

tough times with Alberto Salazar, the investigation, take me through

:54:58.:55:01.

what you were thinking, as you dealt with that situation. To be honest

:55:02.:55:07.

with you, I was disappointed with how the media turned against me,

:55:08.:55:11.

wrote so many negative articles, and there was nothing I was in control,

:55:12.:55:17.

I tried to be honest, I've always said any allegations against him, if

:55:18.:55:22.

he has crossed the line, I am the first one out. Every championship

:55:23.:55:32.

now, you go in as favourite. I like that, it puts you at there, I am the

:55:33.:55:37.

favourite, and I have done well in the past going in as favourite. I

:55:38.:55:44.

liked that position, what do you like about being favourite? It is a

:55:45.:55:49.

confidence boost, definitely a confidence boost, believing in

:55:50.:55:53.

myself, knowing that I am a better athlete than I was four or five

:55:54.:56:00.

years ago. Such a great smile, how bad were

:56:01.:56:03.

those chairs for the interview?! I have never seen an interview take

:56:04.:56:07.

place on the worst chairs, but Mo Farah and Michael Johnson did a

:56:08.:56:12.

great job. Super Saturday take two, and throughout tonight I know a lot

:56:13.:56:16.

of you will be sticking matchsticks on your eyes tomorrow will be one of

:56:17.:56:20.

those days where you wander around in a strange days, so if you are

:56:21.:56:24.

watching this evening, sent through how you are watching, what you are

:56:25.:56:30.

doing, that is the hashtag on screen. BBC Sport will be sharing

:56:31.:56:34.

that, hopefully putting a compilation threw together

:56:35.:56:37.

throughout the evening as well. The way it works, it is all on BBC One,

:56:38.:56:44.

earlier I said the tennis was on BBC One, but it was on BBC Two. I know

:56:45.:56:49.

some of you have been annoyed about channel switching, we never do it on

:56:50.:56:54.

BBC Four! It is all on BBC One from now on, throughout the rest of the

:56:55.:56:58.

evening, everything, athletics and then swimming as well, the last ever

:56:59.:57:03.

appearance from Michael Phelps at an Olympic Games is at three o'clock in

:57:04.:57:07.

the morning. If you can take it through until then, congratulations.

:57:08.:57:12.

Jessica Ennis-Hill, Katarina Johnson-Thompson, heptathlon

:57:13.:57:15.

javelins starts at 12:30, Greg Rutherford is doing the long jump at

:57:16.:57:18.

one o'clock in the morning, Mo Farah... Oh, here are the boys

:57:19.:57:25.

collecting the bins. This is an knightly stop, evening, gentlemen!

:57:26.:57:35.

Hola! Fran Halsall is in a final in the pool at two o'clock, and then

:57:36.:57:40.

add to: 50, if you can stay up that long, that is when the habitat

:57:41.:57:43.

Lonmin Bulls will be handed out, because that is the final event, the

:57:44.:57:49.

800 metres. -- that is when the heptathlon medals will be handed

:57:50.:58:00.

out. We are going to go to beach volleyball now, that is what we are

:58:01.:58:04.

going to do, we can tell you who is playing, Netherlands of against the

:58:05.:58:08.

Swiss, all the way down at the end of Copacabana. It would take is 25

:58:09.:58:14.

minutes to walk down, it is amazing, look at the lights, a three sided

:58:15.:58:22.

stadium, with the open side open to the ocean.

:58:23.:58:35.

This is knockout beach volleyball, the last 16, where it gets serious,

:58:36.:58:42.

and they are just being announced on the sand, so commentary on this one

:58:43.:58:52.

is live, enjoy it all, BBC One through the night now for athletics

:58:53.:58:58.

and swimming, the choice is yours. Please welcome all the way from

:58:59.:59:02.

Switzerland, the heavy hitting opponents, none other than Nadine

:59:03.:59:15.

Zumkehr! Nadine Zumkehr is the smallest athlete in the matchup

:59:16.:59:25.

tonight, she stands at five. -- five but she is quick.

:59:26.:59:47.

Joana Heidrich is the tallest athlete out here. The Netherlands

:59:48.:59:53.

have won all four meetings they have had here against the Swiss. They are

:59:54.:00:03.

batting 1000 in this matchup. The Dean 's car Marleen van Iersel and

:00:04.:00:17.

Madelein Meppelink also ninth place finishes in the London Olympics.

:00:18.:00:26.

This is the first Olympics for Joana Heidrich.

:00:27.:00:55.

A good save by Marleen van Iersel Andy gives Madelein Meppelink a

:00:56.:01:03.

second chance at that block. It has been so imperative for this

:01:04.:01:05.

Netherlands team to play loose and aggressive.

:01:06.:01:33.

Nadine Zumkehr 's a drop shot goes short.

:01:34.:01:52.

Marleen van Iersel has a very dangerous topspin.

:01:53.:02:14.

Madelein Meppelink follows at all of the way. Just to be sure. She

:02:15.:02:21.

blasted the ball. Hammering Marleen van Iersel. What

:02:22.:02:48.

patients in her defence. Madelein Meppelink has been doing a great job

:02:49.:02:53.

of touching a lot of balls on the attack from Joana Heidrich. And

:02:54.:03:01.

Marleen van Iersel just laying it out, and putting it down. She is a

:03:02.:03:07.

gamer, folks. 4-2, the Netherlands lead. We switched sides. For those

:03:08.:03:19.

of you that followed beach volleyball just through the

:03:20.:03:22.

Olympics, we switch sides on multiples of seven as the first two

:03:23.:03:29.

sets are played to 21. If it goes to a third and deciding set it is

:03:30.:03:32.

played to 15 and the athletes will switch sides on multiples of five.

:03:33.:03:50.

Good defensive play on both sides of the net, by Nadine Zumkehr and

:03:51.:04:00.

Marleen van Iersel. Marleen van Iersel seem to have a bit of a

:04:01.:04:03.

glitch in that attack and waited just a bit too long to pull the

:04:04.:04:04.

trigger. The Swiss putting a lot of pressure

:04:05.:04:21.

on the Netherlands with their serving. A good touch by Nadine

:04:22.:04:39.

Zumkehr. She was there. Marleen van Iersel still ripping her jumping.

:04:40.:04:59.

A real smooth Highline ballroom by Marleen van Iersel.

:05:00.:05:33.

Joana Heidrich tallies her first block. She lets everyone know about

:05:34.:05:40.

it. A good call by Marleen van Iersel.

:05:41.:06:02.

It seemed to somewhat surprised Madelein Meppelink, she might have

:06:03.:06:07.

had other intentions in that. But really trusted her partner on that

:06:08.:06:17.

call. She is very good with that crosscourt, cross body. Switch

:06:18.:06:25.

sides. 7-7. Madelein Meppelink and Marleen van Iersel finished second

:06:26.:06:31.

in their Paula, after defeating Venezuela, Costa Rica and losing a

:06:32.:06:35.

hard-fought battle with Australia. Great placement by Nadine Zumkehr

:06:36.:06:50.

over the block of Madelein Meppelink. When the backcourt

:06:51.:06:59.

defender breaks for the line ball, that angle just needs to clear the

:07:00.:07:03.

block, it doesn't necessarily need to be to shop. Just hit it where

:07:04.:07:13.

they are not. What is served by Joana Heidrich! She gets her first

:07:14.:07:26.

ace. The Swiss are serving extremely tough here in set number one. The

:07:27.:07:30.

lead 9-7. Nadine Zumkehr salvages it, Joana

:07:31.:08:03.

Heidrich puts it away. That is a momentum shift. We have been

:08:04.:08:09.

exchanging points here, and the Swiss have taken control.

:08:10.:08:42.

Hammering is Joana Heidrich, staying behind the ball really well. Staying

:08:43.:08:44.

patient. Nadine Zumkehr is there. As is

:08:45.:09:09.

Marleen van Iersel. She puts the ball away. 9-10. Excuse me, 9-11.

:09:10.:09:20.

One point to technical time-out. The feisty Joana Heidrich scores

:09:21.:09:51.

through Madelein Meppelink. Technical time-out touts 9-12 in set

:09:52.:09:55.

number one. The Swiss are in the lead in the round of 16. The winner

:09:56.:10:06.

advances to the quarterfinals. The loser will finish with a ninth.

:10:07.:10:19.

A look at the road for Joana Heidrich and Nadine Zumkehr. They

:10:20.:10:28.

beat Germany, they beat the Netherlands, and they lost to

:10:29.:10:36.

Canada. They also finished second in their pool. Switzerland comes into

:10:37.:10:47.

the Olympics as the number 17 seed. The Netherlands are the sixth seed.

:10:48.:10:51.

The Netherlands are rocking their classic orange and Switzerland in

:10:52.:10:54.

black tonight. The Netherlands are so disciplined

:10:55.:11:29.

with their skill sets and their setting skills.

:11:30.:11:45.

We promise you a very, very solid match from these defensive teams.

:11:46.:12:16.

This was take time out, trying to stop the momentum of the

:12:17.:12:22.

Netherlands. They have strung together three quick points out of

:12:23.:12:30.

the technical time-out. The beach volleyball venue is the hottest club

:12:31.:12:40.

in town. If you happen to score a ticket, be prepared. You get put to

:12:41.:12:47.

work. Madelein Meppelink, she gets her

:12:48.:13:23.

second block of the night. No, that's her third. Ace serve Madelein

:13:24.:13:29.

Meppelink. Nadine Zumkehr scores a great ball

:13:30.:13:53.

on a fall away cut shot. Madelein Meppelink came out of the

:13:54.:14:33.

technical time-out and has absolutely turned his game around

:14:34.:14:34.

for the Netherlands. Nadine Zumkehr scores quick off the

:14:35.:14:51.

block. Van Iersel is there. But Heidrich

:14:52.:16:20.

gets the kill. Pace serve, Nadine Zumkehr. -- ace.

:16:21.:17:01.

That takes their tally to 2-1 apiece, Netherlands still hold onto

:17:02.:17:03.

the lead 17-16. It sounds like there is a lot of

:17:04.:17:30.

Dutch in the house tonight! But Zumkehr making some noise for

:17:31.:17:40.

the Swiss, 18-17, they switch sides. That is good beach volleyball right

:17:41.:18:25.

there! That is what you want to see on a stage like this. Good scramble

:18:26.:18:34.

play by the Swiss, Heidrich covers herself on the way down. Van Iersel

:18:35.:18:39.

gets dirty. We are all tied up. Marleen van Iersel celebrating the

:18:40.:18:59.

fact that Madelein Meppelink might have just amazed that ball! -- just

:19:00.:19:07.

missed. That Kat shot is textbook by

:19:08.:19:35.

Zumkehr. -- cut. Catching a few digits of Heidrich,

:19:36.:19:55.

the Netherlands has the first set point of this match, 21-19.

:19:56.:20:14.

Madelein Meppelink enjoying that final point. The Swiss are causing a

:20:15.:20:29.

lot of stress for the team from the Netherlands, 21-19, Netherlands wins

:20:30.:20:33.

set number one. Set one was back and forth, back and

:20:34.:21:25.

forth until Madelein Meppelink slammed the door. A lot of pressure

:21:26.:21:37.

put on the Netherlands by the Swiss serving, they have two aces but have

:21:38.:21:46.

created a lot of plays in just getting the Netherlands out of

:21:47.:21:56.

system. Madelein Meppelink has three blocks, and Marleen van Iersel is

:21:57.:21:57.

running the back court like a boss. It is her fourth, that building is

:21:58.:22:35.

built well. Zumkehr goes back to her cut, no

:22:36.:23:16.

need to go away from it if it works every time.

:23:17.:23:43.

It is the same arm swing, same hand position for Zumkehr, since she is

:23:44.:23:53.

on the right side of the court. Wrist falling away, she does it on

:23:54.:23:59.

the left side, she does it on the right side. Swiss lead 3-1 here in

:24:00.:24:04.

set number two. What a get! Advantage Holland,

:24:05.:24:44.

Zumkehr is there. Wrist away, and she hammers it down the line.

:24:45.:24:55.

Great turnout of the block, that is an athletic move by Madelein

:24:56.:25:02.

Meppelink, Marleen van Iersel just coming to the aid of her team-mate.

:25:03.:25:05.

Nadine Zumkehr is scoring a lot. You Wanna Heidrich gets her second

:25:06.:25:22.

block. -- Joana Heidrich. Meppelink missing just wide, Holland

:25:23.:26:00.

is going to take a time out, 6- do they trail here in set number two,

:26:01.:26:05.

to Heidrich Zumkehr of Switzerland. -- 6-2 they trail. The winner of

:26:06.:26:18.

this world play the Brazilian team in the quarterfinals. The Canadians

:26:19.:26:28.

did work against to advance through to played the German team.

:26:29.:27:10.

Zumkehr asks for a challenge, whether that ball was in or out.

:27:11.:27:41.

It is nice to have the challenge system in place here at the

:27:42.:27:49.

Olympics. That one was unsuccessful, but it sure serves as a great aid

:27:50.:27:53.

for our referee and line judges out here working so hard to get the call

:27:54.:27:58.

right. Joana Heidrich scores crosscourt,

:27:59.:28:06.

3-7 the Swiss lead. . Play by Marleen van Iersel! To

:28:07.:29:07.

have the patience and wait for that pokey she created. A broken play

:29:08.:29:14.

from the Swiss. A lot of times, with such a great and obsessive --

:29:15.:29:18.

aggressive set by Nadine Zumkehr on that, she could create some

:29:19.:29:22.

problems. Nadine Zumkehr stayed patient and scored a point for the

:29:23.:29:29.

Madelein Meppelink, just a huge presence at the net. Not giving them

:29:30.:29:56.

an inch. Marleen van Iersel a few years ago was the best server on

:29:57.:30:00.

planet Earth. Last year she was voted the best setter. She does it

:30:01.:30:12.

all. The ball was wide. 7-7, switch sides. We all tied up in set number

:30:13.:30:14.

two. Time-out Swiss. Again, Madelein Meppelink. That is

:30:15.:31:38.

her sick. -- six. She is saying, up, Holland! A lot of support here

:31:39.:31:56.

in Rio for the Dutch team. Both sides are battling out here.

:31:57.:33:14.

Both sides very well prepared for one another. It's been evenly

:33:15.:33:24.

matched through this whole set. Blasting through is Nadine Zumkehr.

:33:25.:33:28.

She's scores every time she gets it. Just wide. Sometimes when you are

:33:29.:34:06.

squeezed to one side of the court you forget that there's a whole

:34:07.:34:16.

other half to it. Joana Heidrich with the block. And we go to our

:34:17.:34:27.

technical time-out, 9-12. Switzerland lead.

:34:28.:35:43.

Nadine Zumkehr is all over the place. She extends the Swiss lead to

:35:44.:35:49.

four. Great back and forth play out here

:35:50.:36:56.

in set number two. The Swiss score a quick three points

:36:57.:37:21.

out of the technical time-out. It is the same scenario as the first set,

:37:22.:37:26.

except it has gone to the Swiss. The Swiss were leading set number one at

:37:27.:37:31.

the technical time-out, 9-12, after that technical the Netherlands came

:37:32.:37:39.

out and scored three straight, to tie it up. Here we have the Swiss

:37:40.:37:45.

extending their leads, the Netherlands having some ball control

:37:46.:37:53.

issues which is not normal for them. Nadine Zumkehr. She is playing so

:37:54.:38:08.

sharp. A challenge by the Netherlands on

:38:09.:38:18.

in/ out call for this ball. It doesn't get closer than that. It

:38:19.:39:13.

is successful. The Netherlands stops that run. No. No, they don't. Excuse

:39:14.:39:20.

me. So a 5-0 run by Switzerland before

:39:21.:39:37.

Netherlands gets into double digits. Joana Heidrich. It may be a liner

:39:38.:40:11.

shot, but it is Nadine Zumkehr of Switzerland that is just picking

:40:12.:40:15.

apart the Dutch. And that does it for set number two.

:40:16.:42:27.

The Swiss win 21-13. A 9-12 technical and then they went on to

:42:28.:42:35.

score nine, five of those right away. The Netherlands got four.

:42:36.:43:31.

It has been Nadine Zumkehr and her steady play that has brought the

:43:32.:43:39.

Swiss back to life. Both sides have the capacity to get

:43:40.:44:29.

pretty feisty. If we are going to see any of that it will be here in

:44:30.:44:31.

the third set, no doubt about it. Nadine Zumkehr deep back there,

:44:32.:44:57.

talking Holland into hitting at her. She is just too good right now.

:44:58.:45:16.

Off the hands of Joana Heidrich goes Madelein Meppelink, Nadine Zumkehr

:45:17.:45:22.

has four gold medals to her name. We switch sides, Swiss lead 3-2.

:45:23.:45:52.

Early in set number three. The Netherlands won set number 121-19,

:45:53.:45:59.

the Swiss had total control of set number two, winning 21-13, and here

:46:00.:46:06.

we are, a fight to the quarters. Crossbody goes Marleen van Iersel.

:46:07.:46:52.

That play is so gangster, it is so smooth. Marleen van Iersel is a 2015

:46:53.:47:05.

best setter on the world tour. Nadine saying, don't worry about it,

:47:06.:47:09.

but you might want to worry about that, because that was tough.

:47:10.:47:23.

Madelein Meppelink just in a little bit of a Frank here.

:47:24.:48:10.

The Netherlands known for their ball control, Andy Swiss have put some

:48:11.:48:19.

serious pressure on their serve reception. Off the chest, Madelein

:48:20.:48:29.

Meppelink gets it up, I didn't think she was there in time! And Nadine

:48:30.:48:37.

Zumkehr put it away, but that is a lot of celebration through the net

:48:38.:48:43.

being allowed by our officials. What a play, what a dig!

:48:44.:48:59.

This time, knuckle back to keep, that takes some serious guts. The

:49:00.:49:26.

safe option would be to just set your partner. Madelein Meppelink

:49:27.:49:35.

trying to settle in here. She has been in a funk. Marleen van Iersel

:49:36.:49:40.

trying to calm her down with some very crafty play. Nadine Zumkehr,

:49:41.:49:48.

she is everywhere. IN AUDIBLE CONVERSATION

:49:49.:50:52.

Nadine Zumkehr is a ball, and she is putting on a show.

:50:53.:51:00.

-- baller. The winner of this round of 16 advances to the quarterfinals.

:51:01.:51:20.

Baby line, Nadine Zumkehr. She is a lot to handle right now, folks, and

:51:21.:51:34.

she is the smallest player on the court. Just picking it apart.

:51:35.:52:34.

That ball goes long, the Swiss extend their lead by five. The

:52:35.:52:43.

Netherlands are running out of time. Madelein Meppelink came out with a

:52:44.:54:00.

knee taped. And Switzerland have been picking on her all night,

:54:01.:54:04.

serving her every ball, putting a lot of pressure on her. She has six

:54:05.:54:15.

blocks in this match so far. But she is kind of in a funk. Marleen van

:54:16.:54:20.

Iersel trying to find crafty ways to score, and she has been. 6-12

:54:21.:54:30.

Switzerland leads here in set number three.

:54:31.:54:44.

Volleyball is such a game of momentum, momentum swings, managing

:54:45.:54:58.

pressure. The Swiss have a way of stealing energy in their feisty

:54:59.:55:06.

play, and Nadine Zumkehr has been near flawless tonight.

:55:07.:55:20.

The Netherlands Federation has an incredible team behind them. The

:55:21.:56:01.

Dutch are coached by American Angie acres, who has done wonderful things

:56:02.:56:05.

with this team, which has been together since 2014. It's with,

:56:06.:56:16.

Heidrich and Zumkehr, have been together since 2013. -- the Swiss.

:56:17.:56:24.

The winners today will face off against the hometown favourites,

:56:25.:56:28.

this place will be rocking. It seats 12,000.

:56:29.:56:46.

At that Meppelink, playing pretty gingerly on that day, not wanting to

:56:47.:56:59.

put too much pressure on it. -- that knee. Getting her all doctored up.

:57:00.:57:08.

Here Switzerland leads 12-6 in the third set.

:57:09.:57:47.

Decided to leave the tape off, our athletes take the court again.

:57:48.:58:38.

Hammering, Madelein Meppelink, 7-12. Is that the momentum shifts that

:58:39.:58:47.

they were looking for? And is it enough, is it in time?

:58:48.:59:05.

And they get two out of the time out, 8-12, switch sides. Marleen van

:59:06.:59:17.

Iersel blasting a jump serve, which is hard to do under these

:59:18.:59:21.

circumstances, without much time to think about it. And then coming up

:59:22.:59:28.

with the big dig against Nadine Zumkehr, who has been scoring at

:59:29.:59:29.

will for the Swiss. Van Iersel laying it down, but

:59:30.:59:46.

Zumkehr puts it out of her reach, 8-13 Switzerland lead.

:59:47.:00:18.

Pierre video challenge for a touch call.

:00:19.:00:43.

Centimetres, that's what it comes down to. 9-13 the Swiss lead.

:00:44.:01:17.

Squeezing it through is Nadine Zumkehr of Switzerland! Nadine was

:01:18.:02:13.

just so steady, so precise, she was a surgeon out there. Knowing exactly

:02:14.:02:18.

when to break. Her timing in the back court was brilliant. Joana

:02:19.:02:26.

Heidrich put up a good block, she had three in the match. But Nadine

:02:27.:02:32.

Zumkehr was unstoppable, 172 centimetres of brilliance to night.

:02:33.:02:41.

In the round of 16. She celebrates with her coaches up top. As that

:02:42.:02:52.

team was well prepared. That is the first time they have beaten this

:02:53.:03:00.

team from the Netherlands. So, the Swiss pair are through and

:03:01.:03:21.

we'll have plenty more Beach Volleyball Arena next few days. They

:03:22.:03:25.

go into the quarterfinals. There will be some good quality action on

:03:26.:03:28.

the Beach Volleyball Arena over the next few days and we'll try to bring

:03:29.:03:31.

you that same time every single night on BBC Four. On BBC One right

:03:32.:03:37.

now, there is Greg Rutherford doing his business in the long jump final.

:03:38.:03:42.

His first job was 8.18, he was happy with that. Squeezed through

:03:43.:03:47.

qualifying, the Olympic champion, hoping to redo the magic of four

:03:48.:03:52.

years ago when he managed to win a gold medal. Jessica Ennis-Hill and

:03:53.:03:55.

Katarina Johnson-Thompson in that duathlon. Jessica Ennis-Hill will be

:03:56.:04:03.

throwing the javelin very soon. All live on BBC One. You will see Mo

:04:04.:04:06.

Farah go in the 10,000 metres over the course of the next two hours.

:04:07.:04:11.

We're going to have live weightlifting later on. The men's

:04:12.:04:16.

gold medal match in the 94 kilograms category, that is how we will keep

:04:17.:04:23.

you entertained on BBC Four. You seen how shabby this is, imagine

:04:24.:04:27.

what conditions are like for the sailors, not just Team GB, everybody

:04:28.:04:31.

competing in the Marina da Gloria around the corner on the other side

:04:32.:04:36.

of Sugarloaf Mountain. Shirley Robertson can bring an update on how

:04:37.:04:38.

it's gone there today. Another big day at the sailing. Lots

:04:39.:04:52.

of action out there on the Atlantic and inside the bakeware Giles Scott

:04:53.:04:56.

hopes to consolidate his current gold medal position.

:04:57.:05:08.

With sailing it's one of those sports you take another day, no

:05:09.:05:15.

matter how many you've done, the venue here, the racecourses,

:05:16.:05:19.

particularly inside, are very complex, quite tricky courses. The

:05:20.:05:25.

topography here with Sugarloaf, Christ up high in the hills, it

:05:26.:05:30.

creates some epic scenery, but it's not great for providing consistent

:05:31.:05:38.

wind. Yeah, there's a lot of things we've got to battle against here in

:05:39.:05:42.

Rio. Giles Scott got what he had wished for when racing got underway

:05:43.:05:49.

today, eight clean steady breeze. He could work his magic and impose his

:05:50.:05:53.

four time World Championship form on his rivals. He pulled away to win

:05:54.:06:00.

the first race of the day by some distance, taking his foot off the

:06:01.:06:03.

gas before he crossed the finish line. In the second race of the day,

:06:04.:06:13.

Scott consolidated his position with a cruise around the track to end the

:06:14.:06:17.

day with a points lead starting to look impregnable. It's been a great

:06:18.:06:25.

day for Scott and he's edging ever closer to that gold medal. Rio

:06:26.:06:30.

delivered good conditions down there, nice consistent breezes,

:06:31.:06:35.

which helped my day out today, felt like I was sailing fast and in the

:06:36.:06:41.

right direction. Pleased to come out with 1-3. For Nick Thompson, today

:06:42.:06:47.

was a day that really mattered. In his quest to add Olympic gold to his

:06:48.:06:52.

winning haul. Going into the last two races, Thompson was sitting in

:06:53.:06:57.

fourth. 100 metres to go, it's all going to come down to the final wind

:06:58.:07:02.

shift for Nick Thompson and Great Britain. The double world champion

:07:03.:07:08.

has put in a fantastic effort on this first leg, but unable to shake

:07:09.:07:15.

off his rivals. We're set for a very congested first round. Canada

:07:16.:07:18.

through, then Denmark. Here comes Nick Thompson of Great Britain

:07:19.:07:23.

holding the Croatian back. A good result for Nick Thompson, he had to

:07:24.:07:27.

fight extremely hard in this race. That is a good end. That result took

:07:28.:07:34.

Thompson into the medals over the first in Rio. The upgrade was short

:07:35.:07:39.

lived. The British laser sailor was buried in the pack in the final race

:07:40.:07:43.

of the day and couldn't improve by the end. His 20 Second Place dropped

:07:44.:07:48.

him sixth overall. The sun setting on his Olympic medal hopes. I think

:07:49.:07:55.

it leaves me no chance of gold or silver, which is incredibly

:07:56.:07:58.

disappointing, but a battle for the bronze medal, there will be plenty

:07:59.:08:01.

of us in that position fighting for the bronze. The guy at third at the

:08:02.:08:06.

moment has a bit of a gap, it's going to be tricky. One man's

:08:07.:08:12.

slipped to sixth was another team's step up the ladder. Charlotte Dobson

:08:13.:08:16.

and Sophie Ainsworth had three good races to move six in the 49 Fx. With

:08:17.:08:23.

plenty of time to continue on that trajectory. Meanwhile the mixed

:08:24.:08:29.

multi-held duo of Ben Saxena Nicola Gross will need a good day tomorrow

:08:30.:08:33.

to stay on the podium. They slipped from second to third day in the big

:08:34.:08:37.

ocean waves. Big thank you to Shirley for that. We promised

:08:38.:08:41.

weightlifting on BBC Four, here we go, not sure how many of you are

:08:42.:08:45.

still there, there is so much live athletics on the way on BBC One. See

:08:46.:08:50.

what's going on over here, looks like a hen do, can we have a look?

:08:51.:08:59.

There we go. A Brazilian hen party. They are clearly enjoying

:09:00.:09:02.

themselves. They seem to be all tied together as well. Magnificent

:09:03.:09:06.

scenes, maybe that's how you do it in Brazil. The bride, the bride. The

:09:07.:09:12.

bride, can we see the bride? There she is.

:09:13.:09:18.

Come on then. Write... This could be interesting. Come on... Hello.

:09:19.:09:34.

Hello, I'm down to what is your name? My name's Maria. Are you from

:09:35.:09:44.

Brazil? I am from Brazil in Rio now, but I live in Belo Horizonte. You

:09:45.:09:48.

are clearly having a good night and your friends are here, you are the

:09:49.:09:52.

bride, when are you getting married? In one month, September 17. Are lot

:09:53.:10:04.

coming to wedding? Yes. Marie effort to service Maria!

:10:05.:10:09.

You are getting married here on Copacabana. Yes, Copacabana Beach.

:10:10.:10:15.

CHEERING I want to say something for my

:10:16.:10:21.

husband. Is your husband having his stag do tonight, is he having a

:10:22.:10:28.

party as well? He is at home. A message for your husband, keep it

:10:29.:10:32.

clean. I hope he's watching BBC Four. In English if that's OK. I

:10:33.:10:43.

love you so much, you are my love you are my crush. Is his name? You

:10:44.:10:53.

had to think about his name. He has a nickname. This is magical, this is

:10:54.:11:01.

a special moment for us all. Right... One last thing. We've got

:11:02.:11:06.

some sport, people are waiting for the weightlifting. Do you want

:11:07.:11:12.

weightlifting or Maria? The last thing to say... I want to say last

:11:13.:11:20.

thing... Luminaries there, it's my football team. OK. I have attached

:11:21.:11:33.

to. You are getting married in one month. Have a beautiful wedding,

:11:34.:11:41.

thank you very much. See you later, enjoy the rest of your evening. They

:11:42.:11:46.

just want to wave goodbye. CHEERING We're still on the telly. We're BBC.

:11:47.:12:11.

BBC! You can leave graciously that way. BBC! BBC! This is lovely. Caen

:12:12.:12:27.

BBC! BBC! This is lovely. Thank you very much. I appreciate the support

:12:28.:12:33.

for the BBC as well, Maria. You're getting married, no one is going to

:12:34.:12:38.

call you. See you later. Go on, go away, your husband is watching at

:12:39.:12:42.

home. Thank you. Enjoy your evening, lovely to see you. Well, that was a

:12:43.:12:49.

bit special, wasn't it? You don't get that on BBC One, do you?

:12:50.:12:54.

Goodbye, we love you, we love you all. Goodbye. BBC! BBC! I think we

:12:55.:13:03.

got away with that. LAUGHTER Shall we have some weightlifting?

:13:04.:13:11.

This is the gold medal match in the men's 94 kilograms category. Did

:13:12.:13:19.

that really happen? You have to look out for the Belarus and world

:13:20.:13:33.

champion. And also in contention. -- Sohrab Moradi also in contention.

:13:34.:13:52.

There is a whiff of ammonium sulphate. It makes breathing a bit

:13:53.:14:13.

easier. Ragab Abdalla with his first

:14:14.:14:25.

attempt, 205 kilos. The body language says they look

:14:26.:14:41.

comfortable. It is fair but it does not look

:14:42.:15:19.

anywhere near as comfortable when he snatches. He was on fire for the

:15:20.:15:27.

first half of the competition. It is a good left, so he has got a total.

:15:28.:15:33.

Right now that puts him in first place. It does, but it is worth

:15:34.:15:40.

pointing out that while we have not had the most consistent of

:15:41.:15:44.

competitions, all of these lifters are within a few kilograms of each

:15:45.:15:48.

other, so it is very tight in terms of positioning.

:15:49.:16:07.

Even if Sohrab Moradi was to run away with it, the silver and bronze

:16:08.:16:16.

is still active. Sarat Sumpradit. This would put him in first place

:16:17.:16:21.

for the moment. 177 after this match. -- the snatch.

:16:22.:16:35.

To put him in the lead. He has got it. That is far better in the jerk

:16:36.:16:46.

than McLean, he had to work very hard in McLean. A little bit soft --

:16:47.:16:58.

clean. It was a little bit soft. He is anything but, look at him! He

:16:59.:17:09.

catches it high and rides it in, because he is so strong, generates

:17:10.:17:13.

so much hyped on the bar, good position. I reckon there will be

:17:14.:17:19.

gentlemen sitting at home with their partners with physique and the right

:17:20.:17:29.

now. -- physique envy. Which is OK, as long as your partner does not

:17:30.:17:36.

have it! When you spend up to five hours a day in the gym six days a

:17:37.:17:41.

week, your main focus is on developing the quads, the glutes and

:17:42.:17:44.

the lower back but everything gets developed. Just moving the weights

:17:45.:17:51.

around would involve your arms. The leverage, as you call them. His

:17:52.:18:08.

recorded best, of two to zero, he is down at 208 at the moment. -- 220.

:18:09.:18:13.

The second. Tough for a first attempt. How much

:18:14.:18:33.

did it take out of him? There was a wobble in the elbow. He does not

:18:34.:18:37.

look back confident but the referees have cleared it. -- look that

:18:38.:18:46.

confident. I thought there was a flicker in his right arm. He has

:18:47.:18:54.

recorded 208 and moves into second place. The rules are very strict in

:18:55.:19:02.

weightlifting. There has to be no movement at all in the arms. There

:19:03.:19:06.

is definitely movement in the elbow, sorry. Lucky to get away with it.

:19:07.:19:23.

Ali Hashemi from Iran. His best recorded left is 212. -- lift.

:19:24.:19:54.

Splits nice and wide to get the body underneath the bar. Moves into first

:19:55.:20:22.

place. Well, good speed in his lifting, drops quickly into the

:20:23.:20:23.

squat position. Watch how fast he changes direction,

:20:24.:20:39.

he is right under, adjusts the hands to make it easier overhead. Split

:20:40.:20:42.

nice and wide. Good lifting. We saw Aurimas Didzbalis really

:20:43.:20:59.

struggle. This would put him in first position.

:21:00.:21:08.

That is OK. He has got a really dodgy elbow lock. He did it anyway.

:21:09.:21:21.

Yes. It is always difficult when an athlete does not have a great elbow

:21:22.:21:33.

lock. No problems there. 210. Total of 387 to come with a couple of

:21:34.:21:38.

lifts to come and he is on top. Short on the extension on the clean.

:21:39.:21:45.

Still manages to rack it in. Really having to work hard to keep the bar

:21:46.:22:00.

overhead. His personal best is 204, a massive personal best in the

:22:01.:22:05.

snatch, but this would only put him into second. He was locked at 177

:22:06.:22:11.

with the Lithuanian but he is the heavy lifter. This would put him

:22:12.:22:21.

into second place. Kilo personal best on the bar. -- six kilo.

:22:22.:22:37.

He has got it. Yes, he is OK. Well done. I think he took the down

:22:38.:22:58.

signal before he got an extra stepped. For a tour guide, he gets

:22:59.:23:03.

into some great positions. Brilliant lifting. Yes, great performance,

:23:04.:23:14.

massive personal best in the snatch, and a nice one here for the clean

:23:15.:23:16.

and jerk. Ragab Abdalla, if he is successful,

:23:17.:23:51.

at 211, it would move him into third place. He took 174 from the snatch.

:23:52.:24:19.

Very short. Debt, hardly drove up words before he tried to move. That,

:24:20.:24:33.

I should have pointed it out before, was to match his personal best. He

:24:34.:24:38.

has got his work cut out. One attempt remaining to do that, the

:24:39.:24:44.

clean was so hard, he did not have enough energy left for the jerk.

:24:45.:24:51.

Stands up, adjusts the hands. Just not enough drive. While all that is

:24:52.:25:04.

going on, in terms of the replay, he will have to back up. Sarat

:25:05.:25:23.

Sumpradit has come back up. Aurimas Didzbalis will have to decide to

:25:24.:25:34.

come back up -- Ragab Abdalla. He has to go up to buy some more time.

:25:35.:25:38.

He is not ready to come straight back out. That rule does the

:25:39.:25:47.

athletes no favours. He has nominated 215 for his next attempt.

:25:48.:25:53.

He is going for it, nothing to lose, I guess.

:25:54.:26:00.

Sarat Sumpradit has also gone up again.

:26:01.:26:13.

Dmytro Chumak is next out. He was down at 174 in the snatch and this

:26:14.:26:22.

would move him into third position. If he was successful. It is his

:26:23.:26:24.

first attempt at the clean and jerk. He is all over the place, the wobbly

:26:25.:26:42.

boot. He pushed the bar out in front.

:26:43.:26:53.

Wasted first attempt. It is not what he planned. He does not appear

:26:54.:27:02.

comfortable. He missed his first two snatches, well down on his personal

:27:03.:27:06.

best, there is obviously something going on. He stands up well out of

:27:07.:27:13.

the clean. Narrow hand spacing, he is never underneath the bar. His

:27:14.:27:16.

shoulders were way behind the bar. Got to have your body underneath to

:27:17.:27:26.

support that kind of weight. He will have to come back out. We

:27:27.:27:47.

have seen a couple of lifters when they had to come back out, grab a

:27:48.:27:53.

seat right next to the stage. He has not done that.

:27:54.:28:05.

Here he comes. He posted 386 at Houston last year. Second attempt at

:28:06.:28:19.

213 kilograms, this would move him into third place.

:28:20.:28:29.

He got it. Well, got it 2-1, not sure that I saw an infringement, it

:28:30.:28:46.

looked OK to me. He has got a majority decision, that is all that

:28:47.:28:55.

matters. Nothing wrong with the clean. Elbows looked OK. Difficult

:28:56.:29:06.

angle to see from. So, the final attempt of the competition for Sarat

:29:07.:29:15.

Sumpradit. He ended this competition with a snatch of 166 and took it to

:29:16.:29:23.

177, his best in the clean and jerk of 204 and this would put him in

:29:24.:29:27.

first place, it would post a score that the others would have to chase.

:29:28.:29:52.

This would be something. What has he got left? He has to stay underneath

:29:53.:30:02.

it. Does really well. Look at that celebration. Well, from 204, up to

:30:03.:30:16.

213 on the clean and jerk, a personal best. He has nailed all

:30:17.:30:22.

this and he has a total that puts them on top with 379 when his

:30:23.:30:30.

previous best total was 366, but is an awesome performance.

:30:31.:30:43.

He's given him a total to chase. 379. I'm not sure it's going to be

:30:44.:30:57.

good enough for medal overall. It could put him into third place.

:30:58.:31:25.

The previous attempt was nowhere near. I didn't have odds on him

:31:26.:31:36.

executing that on the third attempt. He's got up a couple of kilos as

:31:37.:31:46.

well. Yes, you can celebrate. He's in bronze medal position at the

:31:47.:31:49.

moment. Still got a couple of lifters yet to start.

:31:50.:32:23.

Bersanau, this lift to take him to fourth place. We just had 173. Now,

:32:24.:32:34.

the bar at 214. Taking a while to get himself

:32:35.:32:58.

settled here. It's that a long time against the windpipe. Readjusted his

:32:59.:33:06.

hands to get some oxygen in. It's allowed as long as it's not an

:33:07.:33:10.

attempt at a jerk, which it clearly wasn't. When you go light-headed

:33:11.:33:15.

there is a much you can do, you can fight it as long as you can. It's

:33:16.:33:26.

really high on his neck. Trying to breed, short, sharp breaths, you

:33:27.:33:30.

don't want to breathe deeply otherwise you lose chest position.

:33:31.:33:38.

Bersanau has decided to go up, may as well to try and give him a shot

:33:39.:33:56.

at medal. The next athlete out is Didzbalis. This is to put himself

:33:57.:34:02.

into first place for the moment. 215 kilos. He does have a reported

:34:03.:34:03.

personal best of 221. That's tough. He's got it overhead,

:34:04.:34:29.

can he hold it? The referee is happy with it, that's all that matters.

:34:30.:34:41.

I'm not sure how much more is there. He is working so hard on each of

:34:42.:34:50.

these lists. Keep it nice and close. Fast under the bar. Big drive,

:34:51.:34:58.

splits nice and even underneath. His biggest problem is his elbows.

:34:59.:35:09.

Bersanau of Belarus currently sitting fourth, he missed his last

:35:10.:35:17.

attempt at 214. He realised he needed 215 to put himself in a

:35:18.:35:21.

middle position at the moment, that is where he's gone. This is for

:35:22.:35:22.

third place. Last one was a struggle. Can he get

:35:23.:35:46.

215? No, he can't. That's a shame he's left in the sixth position at

:35:47.:35:49.

the moment. He's going to finish worse than that, I think, still a

:35:50.:36:00.

couple more lifters yet to start. Straltsou, Moradi. Only five active

:36:01.:36:02.

lifters left in the contest. Body behind the bar on the jerk.

:36:03.:36:19.

Here is Moradi. 210 on the bar, I think. Looks easy. Dropped his chest

:36:20.:36:31.

a bit there. Jokes slightly forwards. Needs to correct those

:36:32.:36:35.

before he comes on the platform. He is looking strong. While that's been

:36:36.:36:45.

going on, the bar has been moved to 220 kilos. And Straltsou of Belarus

:36:46.:36:55.

is about to walk towards the stage and onto the platform for a lift

:36:56.:36:58.

that would put him in third position. Just five lifters left.

:36:59.:37:13.

I'm sure you can hear the stamping of the feet in the crowd, the

:37:14.:37:16.

atmosphere really electric. So fast underneath the bar, wastes

:37:17.:37:41.

no time, holds it overhead. Straight up into gold medal position. In a

:37:42.:37:53.

strong position right now. He was a few kilos down. He was well down

:37:54.:38:03.

from Moradi. And a couple behind the other two in fourth place after the

:38:04.:38:08.

snatch. Here he is in first for the moment.

:38:09.:38:24.

Ali Hashemi, this lift to take him second. He was up 173 after the

:38:25.:38:33.

snatch. 220 on the bar. Big increase, ten kilos. Eight kilo

:38:34.:38:38.

personal best, that's right. Whoa, I think his elbows touched his

:38:39.:38:50.

knees. But it's the Olympic Games, you want

:38:51.:39:04.

to put yourself in a position to get a medal, that's what he was trying

:39:05.:39:10.

to do. I've not seen a live to take the bar off the floor quite so

:39:11.:39:13.

slowly, we talk about the acceleration needed in the middle

:39:14.:39:18.

part of a lift. The speed of the floor is irrelevant, as has been

:39:19.:39:23.

demonstrated here. Never quite had a chance. As soon as your elbows

:39:24.:39:25.

touched your knees, that is a failure. Chumak, to move into second

:39:26.:39:36.

position for the moment. Again, the bar is still at 220. He missed a

:39:37.:39:45.

couple in the snatch, he missed his first lift in the clean and jerk.

:39:46.:39:52.

Pretty sad finish. It's a strong dead lift. Easy dead lift. He's in

:39:53.:40:02.

the wrong sport, though. He looks relieved the competition's over for

:40:03.:40:07.

him, not in a good place today. Just miss timed it, not sure his head was

:40:08.:40:11.

ever there. You've got to believe you can do it. Just four lifters

:40:12.:40:16.

left. There is a cranky man. I wouldn't be

:40:17.:40:33.

asking for his autograph at the moment. 40 odd seconds left for

:40:34.:40:47.

Hashemi to get out here. There are some lifters and some lifts to come.

:40:48.:40:51.

Hashemi now making his way to the bar. His previous attempt, just

:40:52.:41:02.

collapsed underneath. He needs to maintain a nice strong back position

:41:03.:41:07.

here. If he's going to have any chance of standing. This to put him

:41:08.:41:13.

temporarily at least in second position. His final lift. For the

:41:14.:41:28.

Olympics. Can he stand? No. He's out of medal contention. He'll go back

:41:29.:41:39.

and think about that. He remains in sixth position. He avoided the

:41:40.:41:46.

Albert at this time, didn't quite have the legs to stand up. Back to

:41:47.:41:52.

the training room, more squats needed. He's back out, what's going

:41:53.:42:08.

on there? Aurimas Didzbalis has come to the platform, and it's not him,

:42:09.:42:14.

it's Moradi. Moradi who led by five kilos after the snatch with his

:42:15.:42:20.

first attempt at the clean and jerk at 251 kilos. Which represents a

:42:21.:42:30.

personal best. But we are told he claims, he has treated, a world

:42:31.:42:37.

record in training. -- he has tweeted. Look at that, powerful. And

:42:38.:42:46.

he's got it. He's held onto first place. I'm just wondering what

:42:47.:42:57.

happened to him. We saw the 110, 210 in the warm up room, he was down as

:42:58.:43:03.

225 to come out for his first attempt, I don't think he's in the

:43:04.:43:07.

kind of shape we were hoping to see. 221, he's got that on the board,

:43:08.:43:11.

he's up into the lead, but by no means certain. Straltsou has posted

:43:12.:43:20.

232nd attempt. Not a good joke position. Big arch of the lower

:43:21.:43:25.

back. Didzbalis is chasing silverware here. That was to put him

:43:26.:43:33.

into second. His third and final attempt. Look at that. He's on the

:43:34.:43:42.

podium. He cannot finish off the podium, third place is the worst

:43:43.:43:48.

thing he can do. He had a crack at Silver. He's going to walk away with

:43:49.:43:56.

bronze. Remember he missed London due to a doping ban, bombed out at

:43:57.:44:00.

the World Championships last year, now finds himself on the Olympic

:44:01.:44:02.

podium. 392 kilos. You've got to be tough to do

:44:03.:44:24.

weightlifting. You've got to be tough to do it with their feet. --

:44:25.:44:35.

bare feet. The argument over gold and silver. Straltsou of Belarus,

:44:36.:44:45.

currently in second. This lift to take into first place. 230 on the

:44:46.:44:56.

bar, the world record is 233. Another attempt up his sleeve.

:44:57.:45:05.

Can he stand? No. These weights are big asks now. I wouldn't say any of

:45:06.:45:19.

these guys look super impressive in terms of consistency through this

:45:20.:45:23.

competition. They are asking big questions.

:45:24.:45:28.

As things stand at the moment, the man in the picture, Vadzim Straltsou

:45:29.:45:37.

is in the silver medal position behind Sohrab Moradi. And he was a

:45:38.:45:48.

couple of kilos behind in fourth spot after the snatch and has got

:45:49.:45:53.

himself into the silver medal position. The only argument he has

:45:54.:46:02.

got left is whether he will end up with the silver or gold. Because

:46:03.:46:14.

Sohrab Moradi has opted for 231. When Vadzim Straltsou won the world

:46:15.:46:20.

title last year, 230 was the weight that won it. We know he is capable

:46:21.:46:31.

of that. Coming back out, put himself potentially in the gold

:46:32.:46:35.

medal position, it would put him into first place and then waiting to

:46:36.:46:41.

see what Sohrab Moradi is capable of doing. Are we about to see a gold

:46:42.:46:55.

medal left? We may. No! So, he will depart with a silver medal. It is a

:46:56.:47:01.

silver medal at the Olympics, be proud of yourself.

:47:02.:47:14.

Well, we are going to see Sohrab Moradi. He is going for it. Does he

:47:15.:47:22.

really believed he could have a pop at the world record. He has put it

:47:23.:47:29.

on the bar with two attempts to go. So, Sohrab Moradi, he is gold

:47:30.:47:36.

medallist. Can he now set a new world record in the clean and jerk?

:47:37.:48:17.

Well, that does not look like a man who think they can do it. Will he

:48:18.:48:28.

come back out? He does not need to come back out. If I was him, I think

:48:29.:48:32.

I would start celebrating the gold medal right now. You cannot go

:48:33.:48:38.

diving under these kind of weights if you do not believe it. He needs

:48:39.:48:53.

to get psyched for this now, someone give him a wake-up call. You're on

:48:54.:48:57.

an Olympic stage, come on! Collect the gold medal, come out and wave,

:48:58.:49:04.

that is the other option. Do you want this? The chance to expand a

:49:05.:49:12.

convicted grudge sheet on the record books. He is going to come out and

:49:13.:49:15.

have a crack. Here he comes. Sohrab Moradi from

:49:16.:49:45.

Iran. 47-year-old. He has lifted this weight in training but he has

:49:46.:49:49.

to do it on the world's bigger stage to take the world record, he has

:49:50.:49:52.

already secured the gold medal. Well the talk of training weights

:49:53.:50:19.

and what you have done is irrelevant. Nonetheless, there is

:50:20.:50:26.

sure Olympic champion. He did not have that 234 in him tonight but he

:50:27.:50:31.

is an Olympic gold medallist. Well done.

:50:32.:52:02.

Most of them are in the action in the athletics. Mo Farah is currently

:52:03.:52:10.

in the 10,000 metres, Jessica Ennis-Hill in contention in the

:52:11.:52:13.

heptathlon and Katarina Johnson-Thompson involved. The 800

:52:14.:52:20.

metres is on about ten to three and Greg Rutherford currently involved

:52:21.:52:24.

in the long jump. He is sitting in the silver medal position. All that

:52:25.:52:29.

is on BBC One. Adam Peaty is in action later. At three o'clock in

:52:30.:52:33.

the morning you can see Michael Phelps in his final ever Olympic

:52:34.:52:39.

race, can he make it 23 gold medals? Find out at around about three

:52:40.:52:43.

o'clock. Team USA up against Team GB, they are in the relay on BBC

:52:44.:52:50.

One. Here, we are going to wrap things up with a last look at the

:52:51.:53:01.

headlines today. Gold in the team pursuit for Team GB 's women as

:53:02.:53:07.

Laura Trott, to an arousal and Katie Archibald, that is a fourth Olympic

:53:08.:53:11.

gold for Laura Trott and they did it in style with a world record. There

:53:12.:53:19.

was a silver medal in the keirin for Becky James, she celebrated with

:53:20.:53:22.

friends and family on the side of the track. Look at the smile on her

:53:23.:53:32.

face, it means so much. Tomorrow we will see Jason Kenny and Callum

:53:33.:53:35.

Skinner go head-to-head for the gold and silver in the men's sprint,

:53:36.:53:39.

Jason Kenny was involved in this race eight years ago with Chris Hoy

:53:40.:53:43.

and he got the silver that time, what will happen tomorrow? There was

:53:44.:53:50.

a golden finale to the rowing, the men's eight took the top medal for

:53:51.:53:54.

the first time since 2000 back in Sydney. And there was a first ever

:53:55.:54:01.

Olympic medal in the women's aid as well, silver, USA took the gold, the

:54:02.:54:13.

defending champions from London. That is most of the Team GB

:54:14.:54:18.

headlines dealt with but as you know as you have been watching us, there

:54:19.:54:21.

is plenty going on elsewhere, at this time of the day we want to look

:54:22.:54:25.

away from our shores and bring you the Rio Trio. M bronze medal

:54:26.:54:45.

position we have Jaco Van Zyl. Adding to Justin Rose's number. Near

:54:46.:54:51.

the lead, but the high-fives all around after a perfect one at the

:54:52.:55:00.

eighth today. In silver medal position, Juan Martin Del Potro,

:55:01.:55:04.

into the final of the men's singles after seeing off Rafael Nadal in an

:55:05.:55:08.

epic semifinal, incredible scenes afterwards. He has had career

:55:09.:55:12.

threatening wrist injuries but got the better of the Spaniard and in

:55:13.:55:16.

London four years ago, he lost in the final set 19-17 to Roger

:55:17.:55:22.

Federer, this time he has made the final. And in gold medal spot, also

:55:39.:55:42.

rankings but she has beaten three Grand Slam champions on the way to

:55:43.:55:47.

Olympic gold for her and for her country -- Monica Puig. She takes

:55:48.:55:55.

top spot in the real Trio tonight. -- Rio. That is it from us. We will

:55:56.:56:01.

be here from one o'clock tomorrow. I will be back with you on Monday. We

:56:02.:56:05.

will leave you with our image of the day. We know the Olympics are about

:56:06.:56:10.

gold medals and tonight on Super Saturday repeated we are hoping for

:56:11.:56:14.

a few more of those in the Olympic Stadium. Sometimes when you have

:56:15.:56:18.

been through so much, came through adversity like Becky James, a cancer

:56:19.:56:23.

scare and career threatening injuries, a silver medal can be just

:56:24.:56:28.

as special. Good night from everyone on BBC Four.
