Welcome back to our coverage of London 2012. An Olympic Games which

:00:52.:00:56.

has dazzled, thrilled and astonished. We have seen more

:00:56.:01:04.

amazing feat today. European champion Robbie Grabarz

:01:04.:01:09.

added an Olympic medal to his collection. He added a bronze medal

:01:09.:01:13.

to his collection. This has not been a great games for

:01:14.:01:18.

Australia so far but they were back on top of the podium today, Sally

:01:18.:01:24.

Pearson set a new Olympic record of winning the 100 metres hurdles.

:01:24.:01:30.

The magnificent Sir Chris Hoy won his 6th gold medal to move him

:01:30.:01:33.

clear of Sir Steve Redgrave in the Olympic record books.

:01:33.:01:37.

Not quite a fairy-tale end to Victoria Pendleton's magnificent

:01:37.:01:42.

career as she lost in the women's sprint final but she still leaves

:01:42.:01:46.

the games with a gold and a silver. Laura Trott won her second gold of

:01:46.:01:50.

the games with victory in the omnium. She joins an elite group of

:01:50.:01:55.

British women to have won double gold at the same event.

:01:55.:01:59.

It was a proud day for the Brownlee brothers in the triathlon as

:01:59.:02:03.

Alastair took gold and younger brother Jonathan took bronze in

:02:03.:02:09.

front of huge crowds in Hyde Park. Great Britain won a superb team

:02:09.:02:19.
:02:19.:02:20.

dressage gold, their first Olympic All that means in the medal table

:02:20.:02:26.

Great Britain remain comfortably in third place. The overall total of

:02:27.:02:31.

medals now is 48 which surpasses the total achieved four years ago

:02:31.:02:36.

in Beijing which was 47 and there are still a few days to go. A

:02:36.:02:41.

magnificent effort. Someone who contributed towards that total with

:02:41.:02:45.

a gold and a silver is Victoria Pendleton. Everyone was willing you

:02:45.:02:49.

one today. It did not quite happen in the final against your old

:02:49.:02:53.

adversary, did it? Unfortunately not. It was a tough event. I tried

:02:53.:02:59.

my best but not quite today. why a hugely competitive person.

:02:59.:03:04.

Your gold was one of the highlights for me in the keirin. I have never

:03:04.:03:09.

seen anyone I think so determined to hang on to the lead. I kind of

:03:09.:03:14.

wanted to take the race on. I was not going to look at any of my

:03:14.:03:18.

rivals. I was just going to do what I cannot hope fully hold on to the

:03:18.:03:25.

lead. I took on every round and it worked out OK. You got to fight

:03:25.:03:28.

against Anna Meares who you have been battling against for years. I

:03:28.:03:33.

understand there is no love lost but you were very gracious after.

:03:33.:03:38.

Absolutely. A lot of it has been contrived by the media, especially

:03:38.:03:42.

in Australia. It is just one of those things. We have met each

:03:42.:03:47.

other on so many occasions at major championships that our names are

:03:47.:03:52.

always drawn together and they say it is bitter rivalry but it is

:03:52.:03:56.

nothing like that. We are two girls who at the peak of our career at

:03:56.:04:00.

the same time. She has been a fantastic ride over the years and I

:04:00.:04:05.

hope we have both pushed the sport on together. You have been through

:04:05.:04:09.

ups and downs in this game -- in these games because you had a

:04:09.:04:13.

disqualification, a gold medal and then you were disqualified in the

:04:13.:04:18.

final again, they said you went outside the line. Do you think you

:04:18.:04:28.
:04:28.:04:29.

were unfairly treated? What do you think? She cuts in that event gives

:04:29.:04:33.

you a bit of a nudge. Went and we made contact, I lost my balance a

:04:34.:04:39.

bit. That is the first time I have seen it. I did not want to see it

:04:39.:04:44.

because I was trying to focus for the next round. Chris Boardman

:04:44.:04:48.

thought it was pretty unjust and that put a lot of pressure on you

:04:48.:04:52.

because you would have been one up in the best-of-three and suddenly

:04:52.:04:58.

you were one down. I had to change my mind set. It was close. I was

:04:58.:05:03.

not sure if I had it or not. I was really excited for a brief moment

:05:03.:05:07.

thinking, one up, just got to do one more right and I was quite

:05:07.:05:12.

surprised. It is not like me to get relegated or disqualified and in

:05:12.:05:17.

the space of a week, I have done both. I am not the bad girl of

:05:17.:05:21.

cycling. Your story is quite something, what has happened to you

:05:21.:05:25.

over the last year or so and in many ways, it could end up being a

:05:25.:05:28.

Holyrood movie. There is a love story there, great triumph at the

:05:28.:05:34.

end of it. It has been a really tough four years for me. That have

:05:34.:05:39.

been times when I thought, I do not know if I can do it, I do not know

:05:39.:05:44.

if I can make it to London. I am glad the people around me convince

:05:44.:05:48.

me otherwise. They said, you do not want to be at home watching

:05:48.:05:56.

thinking, what if? I was really proud of myself even getting here

:05:56.:06:01.

and my ambition was to come away with at least one podium. I think I

:06:02.:06:08.

did that. I would have liked two gold. In my team, the standard is

:06:08.:06:15.

so high, not even one is enough. is. In the velodrome it has been

:06:15.:06:18.

absolutely breathtaking, the support we have had, the crowd has

:06:18.:06:23.

been so noisy and supportive and incredible, aid experience I would

:06:23.:06:28.

not have missed for the world. we are so glad you took part. Is

:06:28.:06:34.

that really it? He yes, sure. Honestly, the way I have felt this

:06:34.:06:37.

week, dealing with the expectation, the pressure, most of it I have put

:06:37.:06:42.

on myself. I would never want to go through that every game. Coming in

:06:42.:06:46.

as Olympic champion and for the last four years, in the last ten

:06:46.:06:51.

years I have been world champion six years, multiple occasions. When

:06:51.:06:56.

you ride did not win it I was Commonwealth champion. It is so

:06:56.:07:01.

hard to maintain that, for the ten years of my career at this level.

:07:01.:07:08.

Anything less is just disappointing for me. It is time and a wonderful

:07:08.:07:11.

ending. I will never experience what I have experienced here, a

:07:12.:07:17.

home crowd cheering you on in the most incredible feeling. I can

:07:17.:07:22.

never do that again. It makes sense that this is it. You have been a

:07:22.:07:26.

wonderful representative of British sport over so many years and we

:07:26.:07:29.

congratulate you on not just these Olympic Games but a truly

:07:29.:07:35.

remarkable career. Thank you. you for coming to doctors. You can

:07:35.:07:41.

get a bike now with brakes on. -- thank you for coming to talk to us.

:07:41.:07:45.

If any sport can compete with the likes of cycling or rowing for

:07:45.:07:50.

British success, it could be boxing with numerous medal prospects. One

:07:50.:08:00.
:08:00.:08:08.

is that Fred Evans if he could see Evans' career. This is the first of

:08:08.:08:12.

three three-minute rounds. It is the quarter-final stage between the

:08:12.:08:21.

boxer wearing red, representing Canada, Custio Clayton. The boxer

:08:21.:08:24.

wearing blue represents Great Britain and that is Fred Evans from

:08:24.:08:33.

Wales. It will suit Evans if this fellow comes forward at him. That

:08:33.:08:42.

is the problem that a lot of He is an out and out counter-

:08:42.:08:45.

puncher on the back foot. He is very comfortable with people coming

:08:45.:08:50.

forward at him. He has good range and good vision and good timing as

:08:50.:08:58.

his opponents come forward. Watch out for his right hook. He has a

:08:58.:09:08.
:09:08.:09:09.

very powerful right hook, has Fred Evans. Clayton just falling short.

:09:09.:09:14.

A good start from the man representing Great Britain. Clayton

:09:14.:09:24.
:09:24.:09:30.

fell into the Rake's. -- the ropes. Evans really started brightly to

:09:30.:09:37.

begin this opening round. What he cannot afford to do is wait for too

:09:37.:09:44.

long. He has to trigger off his opponent's attack. He has to faint

:09:44.:09:54.
:09:54.:10:11.

with the jab and may be the front boxers. Evans is the reigning

:10:11.:10:21.
:10:21.:10:25.

European champion. He is the number two ranked boxer in the world. In

:10:25.:10:35.
:10:35.:10:46.

the first-round he prevailed over number four seed from Lithuania.

:10:46.:10:52.

Evans had always -- already secured qualification for London 2012 and

:10:52.:11:00.

he stopped him during the contest so he overturned a significant one.

:11:00.:11:07.

The pace has suited him and he is controlling that pays. This has

:11:07.:11:17.
:11:17.:11:46.

been a good round for Evans. He is jab. His coach was saying you have

:11:46.:11:51.

to be first and third. He wants Evans to start the attack, wait for

:11:51.:11:59.

the response and then go again. Basically, counter the counter. The

:11:59.:12:03.

first with the attack, the opponent will respond with the counter and

:12:03.:12:11.

then he will counter again. Simple instructions but the right ones.

:12:11.:12:21.
:12:21.:12:23.

Into the second round we go. The boxer wearing red is operating out

:12:23.:12:28.

of the orthodox stance, Custio Clayton. The boxer wearing blue,

:12:28.:12:34.

operating out of the southpaw stance, is Fred Evans. He is

:12:34.:12:44.
:12:44.:12:55.

leading by a score of seven. To two continually, he cannot close the

:12:55.:13:00.

distance as effectively as he would like. Clayton's problem is his feet

:13:00.:13:08.

are far too slow. If he has to have any success at all, he has got to

:13:08.:13:14.

close that gap. This is suiting Fred Evans down to the ground. He

:13:14.:13:19.

hits as hard with his right hand as he does with his left, it is a rare

:13:19.:13:23.

talent. He is natural and gifted and he has to use it to a good

:13:23.:13:30.

affect. Very gifted indeed, Fred Evans. He helped Carl French a few

:13:30.:13:39.

months ago. He is the world champion. He commented on the

:13:39.:13:45.

ability and strength that Fred Evans possesses. He really is a

:13:45.:13:55.
:13:55.:13:56.

talented boxer. He takes a stiff shot from Clayton. Fred Evans is 21

:13:56.:14:04.

years old. He was inspired to get to this a Olympic stage by watching

:14:04.:14:14.
:14:14.:14:26.

Amir Khan on the television. It is got to keep it going. Clayton has

:14:26.:14:35.

started to step on the gas. We saw Clayton do that brilliantly in his

:14:35.:14:45.

previous encounter when he fought Australia's Cameron Hammond. In the

:14:45.:14:55.
:14:55.:15:14.

gear in the third round of his is really struggling with this

:15:14.:15:22.

style. It is a typical reaction from an orthodox. He is finding the

:15:22.:15:28.

range too difficult to land that shot. He really is struggling.

:15:29.:15:38.
:15:39.:15:39.

has closed the gap. He has closed its to aid two point margin.

:15:39.:15:46.

:15:46.:15:54.

You have to move side to side. are not pleased with him in that

:15:54.:16:01.

corner. He had a lapse of concentration. Claydon did had his

:16:01.:16:07.

moments. He found the target. -- Clayton of full stump he did not

:16:07.:16:17.
:16:17.:16:19.

adjust his feet. -- Clayton. He has had a rocket up the backside -

:16:19.:16:26.

Bevan's. He has to respond in the last round and up the tempo again.

:16:26.:16:36.
:16:36.:16:39.

-- Evans. We move into the third and final round of the men's

:16:39.:16:44.

quarter-final. This is the final eight. If you make it through to

:16:44.:16:52.

the semi-finals, you will be guaranteed at least a bronze medal.

:16:52.:16:59.

They will both have their minds on top spot. Fred Evans representing

:16:59.:17:04.

Great Britain and Canada are represented by Custio Clayton,

:17:04.:17:11.

wearing red. Evans got through with a good left hand. He is beginning

:17:12.:17:19.

to warm up with his boxing. But good uppercut to end the exchange.

:17:19.:17:24.

It is important that Evans keeps that distance. He does not want to

:17:24.:17:32.

be boxing Clayton on the inside. That is better. Do not stand and

:17:32.:17:40.

Hoddle feet. Clayton working well on the body at close quarters.

:17:40.:17:46.

Evans missed with his -- his own left. He is being warned to keep

:17:46.:17:51.

the punches up by the referee. He was introduced to boxing at eight

:17:51.:18:01.

years old. He used to hang around the gymnasium, desperate to try the

:18:01.:18:07.

sport himself. His uncle saw immediately that he possess some

:18:07.:18:12.

talent. Now Clayton is representing his country as part of the three-

:18:13.:18:19.

strong boxing team. They are representing the maple leaf of

:18:19.:18:26.

Canada. Evans needs to work harder here. Just keep boxing at range.

:18:26.:18:32.

Just stay focused. Keep the Guard high-up was stuck look at the

:18:32.:18:40.

timing and get that right. -- high. Evans went along with his shot. It

:18:40.:18:50.

is a good left-right by Clayton. The crowd is beginning to raise its

:18:50.:19:00.
:19:00.:19:02.

volume level to spur Evans along. Concentration is going to be

:19:02.:19:09.

absolutely crucial. Evans led by two coming into this final round.

:19:09.:19:16.

This round has been really keenly contested. Do you want to get on a

:19:16.:19:23.

podium? You have to work harder. Catch him as he comes in. Come on,

:19:23.:19:30.

work! Which boxer can find the moment of inspiration. Who will

:19:30.:19:37.

take inspiration from the crowd? Clayton is finishing strongly. He

:19:37.:19:43.

takes a good shot to the body. He did not work during that period the

:19:43.:19:47.

stub that was a really keenly fought encounter which will hang in

:19:47.:19:56.

the balance. -- that period. Custio Clayton is spent after returning to

:19:56.:20:01.

that corner. A place on the Olympic medal podium is what is at stake.

:20:01.:20:08.

They competed right until the final bell. That was a close round.

:20:08.:20:18.
:20:18.:20:19.

Evans's lack a bit of urgency. -- Evans lacked a bit of urgency.

:20:19.:20:26.

Actressy was not there in the last round was stuck -- accuracy. He

:20:26.:20:36.
:20:36.:20:38.

hung on towards the end. He gets caught again. It will be close.

:20:38.:20:43.

There was a spring in the step of Custio Clayton as he returned to

:20:43.:20:53.
:20:53.:20:56.

his red corner. Custio Clayton is already holding up his hand. Evans

:20:56.:21:06.
:21:06.:21:16.

scores are level at 14 points apiece. Up the winner on countback,

:21:16.:21:24.

in the blue corner, at representing Great Britain, Fred Evans. Fred

:21:24.:21:29.

Evans from Wales has guaranteed himself and an Olympic medal after

:21:29.:21:34.

prevailing by the slimmest possible margin. Custio Clayton fought a

:21:35.:21:39.

terrific final round was dug he overturned the two point deficit to

:21:39.:21:48.

turn it back at 14 points apiece. Evans is through to the final four.

:21:48.:21:52.

He has guaranteed himself and an Olympic medal will start Custio

:21:52.:21:59.

Clayton deserves a round of applause. -- Olympic medal. Fred

:21:59.:22:06.

Evans will stand up on top of the Olympic podium. He will become the

:22:06.:22:12.

first world boxer since Ralf Evans in Munich 1972 to secure off a

:22:12.:22:22.

Madog. -- Welsh boxer. There was absolutely nothing in it. No doubt

:22:22.:22:27.

about the man who has progressed through to the find of four. Fred

:22:27.:22:34.

Evans is through to the Olympic semi-final and a bronze medal.

:22:34.:22:40.

fantastic fight. You have moved into the semi-finals of the

:22:40.:22:45.

competition. Unbelievable! It is my dream come true to get a medal at

:22:45.:22:51.

the Olympic Games. Hopefully I can go one and change the colour of my

:22:51.:22:55.

medal. You went out there and made it look easy. That was tied in the

:22:55.:23:04.

end. I started of relief bust and piled on the pressure. He is a

:23:04.:23:11.

strong kit. -- started off really fast. What is it like to be part of

:23:11.:23:19.

the set up? We all get along great. We up a great team. The guy next to

him in 2004? It would be a dream come true. I remember watching him.

:23:33.:23:41.

Since then, it has been what I want to achieve. I am one step closer

:23:41.:23:47.

now. Congratulations! Good luck in the semi-finals. Mixed fortunes for

:23:47.:23:55.

the Welsh boxers this evening. Andrew Selby lost earlier on. In

frustrated. -- question this. Everyone knows best, apart from the

own foot. They got it right in the end. The final seconds being

:29:15.:29:25.
:29:25.:29:32.

to the semi-final. Goodness me, the struggle to get there. The Spanish

:29:32.:29:38.

are still not happy about it. That is absolutely sure. Great Britain

:29:38.:29:45.

have made it. They get to the semi- final by a point above Spain.

:29:45.:29:48.

celebration shows how much it means to you that you are in the semi-

:29:49.:29:54.

final. It has been a long time coming. I started about nine years

:29:54.:29:58.

ago. If you told me this is achievable, I thought this was for

:29:58.:30:04.

other people. Watching the Germans and the Australians doing nest. We

have proved it in the World Cup and we proved it here. -- doing this.

We are going to give it a right go The furious Spanish coach has

:30:22.:30:27.

accused the officials of bias towards Team GB.

:30:27.:30:31.

The semi-final line-up is complete and features the last six winners

:30:31.:30:35.

of the men's tournament. Great Britain is amongst them.

:30:35.:30:39.

In football, Mexico made it through to the final earlier today when

:30:39.:30:44.

they beat Japan. They would meet the winners of the second semi-

:30:44.:30:54.
:30:54.:30:57.

final between Brazil and South Brazil. Many famous names have

:30:57.:31:07.

played for them in the Olympics gone past. This is the latest
