Shock in the football, Spain got beaten by Japan. Inigo Martinez got a straight red card.
That was one hell of an opening last night.
they fencing finals were great!
Wow, Phelps didn't even get a medal in the 400-meter individual medley!
Well done Team GB ladies football. 3-0 win against Cameroon means they're through to the quarter finals, along with Brazil. Both teams have 6 points in the group and play each other next.
damn we lost from Croatia on Water Polo 8-6, the girls on beach volley lost too and the world champions Vlassis Maras was eliminated. A total disaster so far for us
And that's a maximum nine points for our ladies. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/olympics/18902297
Great Britain has yet to win a gold....
The rate we're going, the ladies football team might get one. And the track and field hasn't started yet, that's one of our strong suits. I am disappointed in Tom Daley, who only came 4th in the synchronised diving, after getting gold in Beijing. Rebecca Adlington's swimming bronze was achieved with a faster time than her gold four years ago. In both cases, Chinese improvement is to blame. Paula Radcliffe was a good bet for the marathon but she's out injured. I actually don't WANT us to win anything in the Taekwondo, because that'll prove that the selectors were wrong to ignore Aaron Cook.
