2-2 against the Dutch in the hockey. That is some result having been 2 down. First team to take points from them. 3rd in the group and unbeaten now, just the World champions (Germany) and France to play. Top 4 go through.

2 golds yesterday and all the talk is about Tom Daley who got a silver, I hate seeing people get special treatment. Yes he did well but come on focus on the gold medal winners a bit more hey Cue the BBC Tom Daley story and what he had to go through whilst trying not to cry and the obstacles he faced Oh and by the way...some dude just a gold at something

That's not to say there isn't a club set up in Sweden.

They haven't gone head first over the handle bars of a Chopper bike before helmets were invented !

Quarter's next so if they win that are both semi finalists guaranteed a bronze or maybe the losing semi finalists play off for the bronze. Hope that helps. I think I've confused myself with that 😅

What a day at the Olympics! Really hope Murray/Evans go all the way...he/they really deserves it! Great win in the pool to for the 4x200 relay! Superb win. What a win for Wiffen too for Ireland, looks nothing like an Olympic swimmer but bye Eck he's an Olympian now! He really was something else in the pool!

Sweden lost by two goals against the Danish handball ladies in the group stage.
Sweden beat Norway. Norway beat Denmark. Denmark beat Sweden. It's going to be tough. Slovenia and South Korea for Sweden next.
It was nice to see Nina Koppang, Lindqvist, Jamina Roberts and the little Danish keeper today, among others.

Nice to see the Aussies crying at the womens rugby 7's, beaten in the semis by the Canadian Ladies. I just now saw the highlights of the US ladies miraculously beating the Aussies at the end of the game for bronze I guess it was -- out of the jaws of victory sort of thing. Absolutely brutal.

Just thinking if we turn the pitch into a swimming pool and play under floodlights could we bring our 3 Olympians on as super subs 😁😁😁

Love to see Murray and Nadal in the final as I think Nadal will retire too with andy if that happens pity they can't share the gold

If it wasnt for the repeated success of Tom Daly in the diving the sport would not have got the funding and continued success its getting
thats a hell of a legacy and puts him up there as one of Britain's greatest olympians

Brilliant by Alex Yee sadly the coverage by the cameras give little perspective literally in a minute he was about be over taken and fall to 3rd place about 15 secondes behind the leader then next he is taking Wilde and the cameras like the womens race showing different atheletes so the watching tv audience do not get the full experience.
Great Olympics so far and some brilliant sport and performances.
Minutes later the womens quads rowing what a finish from 5 m down with 100m to go win in a photo finish.
