    How close was that it's a great Spectacle

    What has happened to Tom Daley - doesn't make the final after finishing last in the semi final?

    To busy laughing on McDonalds adverts at some bird who does dancing

    At least he has a good tan though. Well bronzed.

    Gold for Nicola Adams

    Chuffed for Adams, great stuff!

    One of the real highlights for me was the hockey girls celebrating their victory. You could really see how much it meant to them.

    Just seen that Lutalo Muhammad interview - felt so sorry for him.

    They should have given him a minute or two as well before carrying on the interview.

    Thought his coach should have been by his side. Anyway, much calmer today and comes across as a really sound guy. He's more famous for losing than if he'd won gold, I reckon. On to Tokyo.

    On the flip side, can you imagine how good the Ivory Coast guy felt getting a last second winner for a gold medal?

    Brilliant free kick by Neymar in the Olympic Final. But they are also defending like a Sunday League team at times. Proper atmosphere in the Maracana. Great stuff.

    The Germans have hit the woodwork three times now. The Brazilian defence is shutting its eyes and hoping for the best at Set Plays.

    An enjoyable diving 10m final, It's satisfying that after a week of watching various diving events, I can now judge dives reasonably accurately :smile:

    Germany equalised

    Sussed that 10m is easier to judge than 3m because it's more obvious on entry. Oo la la.

    The Chinese have really struggled with there being no roof on the pool, i can't believe they ran out of money and time to build a bloody roof

    You want a nice clean and straight entry, with no splashbacks. The pressure of being judged can affect performance though

    The Brazilian team may have reached the final, but there's nothing there to suggest Brazil have a new generation of players to bring back the "Brazilian glory days"

    Penalties. I hope the Germans melt, but I fear the Brazilian players may find the pressure too much.

    Fantastic. Pleased for the Brazilian people after the World Cup humiliation.

    Pleased they won it, as it's the one the Brazilians wanted

    Of course, in the wider picture the Olympic Gold doesn't really mean anything (imagine if Germany had picked Muller or Ozil as one of their overage players), but for the country it was massively important

    The ref maybe thought the same - heard him vainly blowing his whistle after the pen but by then all jubilation was let loose. Never mind.

    1500m like keirin. Perhaps all multi lap races should follow a moped til last 400.
