There's something adorably ramshackle about the BBC Shopping Trolley.

Daily Mail have been scouring Tesco's to check for trolley theft.

And now the racewalk appeal has been overturned, Canada loses a bronze

Strange to have two different decisions

(although it's hard, after seeing the images again, I feel like it could be the canadian that hit the japanese and not the other way aound...)

that was my impression as well from seeing it live. havent seen any replays though


germany now holding up a bit better since heinevetter went into goal. still gonna be a hard time..
i think france is going to take this.

 

[Brinbe]

These refs would make Joey Crawford proud with all these garbage and questionable techs

I mean Dunfee would have lost that place anyway. He was on the brink of collapse like two times at the end there.

 

[Koren]

Nice semifinal between France and Germany...

that was my impression as well from seeing it live. havent seen any replays though

Wasn't sure on the live, it's an impression from the replay. But that could be the camera angle.

 

[Twenty7KVN]

Damn these refs are trigger happy.

 

[Vic]

FIBA reffing is HARSH.

[mclem]

I wonder if BBC picked this boxing match to show because it could result in a Chinese gold medal...

 

[Superman0]

I have been bagging Klay, but dude definitely showing up in the big moment.

 

[cilonen]

This USA 10m diver is actually called Steele Johnson. That's perfect.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Oh FFS...JUST GIVE THEM BOTH A BRONZE. NOBODY CARES!

 

[SplitYourInfinities]

This is FIBA, yanks!

Deadpool is in Rio watching the bball team.

 

[kyo2004]

Wait, I thought the American got 3rd in that means BMX. Did something happen?

Same time with the Colombian rider but photo finish gave 3rd place to Ramirez... ...

 

[Kifimbo]

He sure likes to do that. Here he was after losing a relay 10 years ago.

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

God, that must feel awful.

 

[perfectchaos007]

US water polo on their way to winning gold I think. Currently leading 9-4

 

[Dany]

will tom daley finally get gold?

 

[LyleLanley]

This is FIBA, yanks!

It is?

 

[Steiner84]

germany not on top of their game.... france is going to go ahead..

 

[DrM]

germany not on top of their game.... france is going to go ahead..

If you do not stop that 'attack wave' from France, forget about any chance. They have simply the best players all around.

 

[Lima]

germany not on top of their game.... france is going to go ahead..

Yup.

 

[Zackat]

water polo gold is looking good.

 

[Angel_DvA]

germany not on top of their game.... france is going to go ahead..

Well the French at Handball are pretty much beast, they aren't called: "Les Experts" for nothing.

 

[Tom Penny]

also all these xgames in the ninties and people like tony hawk are seen as "filth"?
thats crazy..

I have no idea what you're talking about.

 

[Koren]

germany not on top of their game.... france is going to go ahead..

They're not playing badly, but France is rock-solid, as it has often been in the past 15 years. Especially Omeyer, who's doing a great match again (and just scored a goal, not usual for a goalkeeper ^_^)

 

[perfectchaos007]

Another Gold for team USA! Womens team water polo

 

[Ruruja]

will tom daley finally get gold?

If the Chinese don't turn up, sure.

Goalkeeper goals are quite common now with new rules that team can pull out a goalkeeper and replace him with another player when attacking.

Even Germany at their top of their game would have lost against uus

We have had the best team in the world in handball for a decade

 

[Steiner84]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

you said that actuall skaters dont look at contests as a barometer on who is the best skater.

so im asking what all these xgames in the nineties were about then?
it were contests, and there was a winner at the end, or not?


so what is different now and then?

 

[Steiner84]

Even Germany at their top of their game would have lost against uus

yeah but germany had a good run this year. they would have had a fair chance with their a game.

 

[Sean C]

Japan counter-appealed on the 50 km racewalk and won, so Canada's back down to 20 medals. Ah well, we'll see if Dunfee can do better next time.

 

[Lima]

Too soon. Germany back in this.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Geezus coach K, put friggin Draymond Green in the game. Need energy in there.

 

[Mimosa97]

yeah but germany had a good run this year. they would have had a fair chance with their a game.

Don'T worry I've jinxed it.

You're gonna win now

 

[Steiner84]

not like this.


2 very good chances blown away..

 

[Brazil]

Congrats to Canada for the Bronze medal!

But above all, congrats to the Brazilian girls who made it to #4 without any financial support or even a national league!

 

[Tallshortman]

Man these refs with some soft calls lol
