OLYMPICS Paris Olympics

Half time.

Aussies up 7-6 at the break.

They were up 7-3 at one stage but Japan have closed the gap. Let's stay switched on in the next half guys.
 
That certainly didn't look like that the whole ball crossed the line.
 
Aussies had a 5 metre penalty for a chance to end the quarter level and they blow it without even getting a shot off...

10-9 to Japan going into the final period.
 
I'm no waterpolo expert but the defence being played by Japan is completely different from the other teams. They are pressuring the ball handler more and forcing them to throw it inside which has been a weakness of this team so far. Playing alot faster then other teams. They are pulling the trigger more from the outside also then other teams.
 
Why didn't he shoot the ball? Over passing. Played right into their game style
 
Japan with a goal in the last 11 seconds to win the game 14-13.

It wasn't a must win for Australia. It would have been good to take winning form into the Quarter Finals but perhaps they will learn from this loss after being up by 4 points and letting it slip.

Japan end their group games with their first win.
 
Jeez Netherlands almost flipping her boat in the women's dinghy race 9.
 
Unreal - no longer in her sister’s shadow, well done!
 
Jack Robinson won his semi final heat in the men's surfing.

He's through to the final where he will take on French surfer Kauli Vaast.
 
That’s a massive win, his opponent is a legend.

Matt Wearn also will win at least silver in men’s dinghy. He should win gold because he has a massive lead but it’s never over until it’s over
 
Men's gold medal match coming up after the women's bronze medal match this morning.

Expect Medina to win the bronze here for the men here.
