Exciting shoot out, more fun than football penalties, but it looks like we are going out.

We deserved to go out after that.
Players absolutely lost their heads and played right into India’s hands once they went to 10 men.
India have some really good players don’t they.

Enjoying the hockey GB drawing with India 1-1 don’t fancy our chances in a shoot out as the Indian goalkeeper has been outstanding. Just like the footy to much sideways and backwards passing with very little efforts on goal though I only watched from the 3rd. No commentary as in gym but looked like there was a bit of needle. Didn’t help when Rupert got his green card  Have to agree India were a man down in the first quarter and we never capitalised with too much negative play. We lost the shootout 4-2 and got exactly what we deserved. |

Disappointed with that, never going to get many chances against India. They defend well but they're also experts at disrupting things with
sleight of hand, that deliberate stick in the face unsurprising. Couple of rushed decisions on the penalties but that's knockout competition.

Who’s the guy that’s commentating on the gymnastics that sounds like Johnny Vegas. He’s brilliant.

Amber Rutter robbed at the end there in the skeet, she definitely hit it.

Gold medal for Djokovic, completes the set for him now. Also further his case to be considered as the greatest of all time.
Remarkable career.

We’re not having a great evening on the track are we. The 100m looks absolutely stacked. Surely they’ll all run sub 10 seconds

The three on the gymnastics are ace as are the swimming commentators and analysts. The 100 metres is going to be mental! |

9.91 gets you 8th in the 100m now.

Some final that. Easily all under 10 and all within 0.13 seconds of each other. Amazing!
