[Flounce]

My goodness, how did they do that. 2 golds in half hour. My working morning is ruined!!!

Both snatching victory from the jaws of defeat too. Brilliant

 

[zeemeeuw]

Flying up the medal table

Gone above Australia ... which is nice.

Love this stuff.

 

[Frutos]

What a morning!

 

[essbee1]

BMX coming later with the GBR bloke one of the favourites.

 

[Mellor 3 Ward 4]

Amazing morning and it's also been my most productive one of the week! Brilliant.

Two utterly incredible finishes, astounding. This olympics has been ace so far.

My least productive

Oh well, never mind.

 

[KZNSeagull]

And the ladies belted out the national anthem too.

Love that shot of the Women's Quad Sculls giving the the National Anthem everything they had and grinning throughout.

 

[Ali_rrr]

Brilliant from the girls! Shows never to give up. Let's hope we keep the medals up.


Dutch have had a lot of near misses this Olympics.

Norway - Hungary tied in the handball 25-25, 5 seconds left, Hungary fast break 1 on 1, keeper saves, luzzes it downfield and Norway score a winner in the final second.

Reminded me of the end of that Leicester - Watford play off match.

Wasn’t able to watch but I see we’ve lost another boxing bout on a 3-2 split

Any controversy with this one?

 

[Silverhatch]

Beaugrand of France has definitely gone into my would list this morning

The definition of a beautiful woman.

 

[A1X]

This BMX stuff is absolutely insane

If that was women then yeah it looked like our girl was taking the fight to the other taller woman who looked shocked most of the way through the fight until she woke up in the last round. Even then she didn't do much. Reid(?) was well ahead in the first two rounds in my book.

This BMX stuff is absolutely insane

The French guy starting off with a big trick, messing up the landing and his shoe flying off was quite amusing.

 

[LU7 RED]

The definition of a beautiful woman.

Stunning. Very good athlete too.

 

[hart's shirt]

Reilly guaranteed a medal in BMX!

And it's a very well earned silver!

 

[Is it PotG?]

Biketastic mate, great effort

 

[Triggaaar]

How did Reilly not get gold for that?

 

[crodonilson]

Personally thought the GB guy was better than the Argentine but the French guy was better than him.
