How on earth are we level??!!

Dutch have the possession definitely. they should be out of sight... but ... they can't defend that well.

Sadly I can't find the story, but the 5 live commentator referenced a story from the 1968 pentathlon.

Apparently a German competitor had to be restrained from beating up his allocated horse as he was so bad at show jumping.

Some of the riders were ploughed through the jumps today, one was carried off on a stretcher.

It's such a great test of how good a rider is.

Maddie Hinch is brilliant.

Well done. I hope our penalty shoot out failures does not include hockey.
Its exciting as they must shoot within 8 seconds. Nervy stuff usually plenty of misses and saves.

I just have the mental image of a bloke trying to punch a horse in the face, while his team mates are trying to stop him saying 'leave it bruv, he's not worth it'. :lol:
