England will have a really tough match against Australia. have done fantastically well to make the final.
A gold and silver for the Kenyans in the 1500m for men, a gold and silver for their ladies in the 5000m. Only one clean sweep on the Athletics track for Kenya ....in the 3000m steeplechase for men. I expect a strong Ugandan presence in the Marathons later today.
Can you imagine the England v Jamaica semi-final in our house, with a Jamaican wife... she didn’t know so to shout for
Jamaica all the way!! John Barnes, a Jamaican by birth, one of the best footballers to ever put on an England shirt. That is the most loveable thing about the UK. Its diversity of people.
Kimi Raikkonen's orneriness makes him just about the ideal teammate for a top-flight team. Gets off to a poor start and gets squeezed out by Vettel, and immediately turns his attention to stuffing Hamilton's moves. Kimi doesn't hold grudges; if you're behind him, his sole focus is that you stay behind him.
I know Robbie Simpson who won bronze in the marathon - he`s a genuine sportsman, and he`ll be gutted he got it as a result of Callum Hawkins misfortune. Shocking how long it took to get medical aid to him.
Delays have happened in other events too....one injury was on a pitch...no excuse not to have medical aid quickly from the sidelines. Wasn't there a wickedly long delay in the last Olympics as well? A cyclist went off a bend and lay with her head on a kerb for an extremely long time while the race carried on round her.
