Well, to be honest your team is likely to win next two matches, probably avoiding catastrophe.

Congratulations Brazil!! They just beat Serbia 6-5

What an amazing medal for Boubakri and Tunisia

More sad news

So far, pretty dissapointing results for a discipline which had showed a great development in the last years. Aida Roman was completely out of form and gave a sad performance since the qualifying rounds; Boardman paid the price for his inexperience and let himself crumble against a mediocre Cuban archer (for international standards) who clearly did just enough to overcome him. I really pray for either Valencia or Bayardo to reach at least round of 16 tomorrow

I'm praying for Berna Pujals to have her best day ever tomorrow, so she can have a shot of qualifying to the next phase in dressage.

So far mediocre results for Mexican synchro pairs, that in both genders, were defending silver... still tomorrow shall be a better competition for Rommel and Jahir in springboard. In any case, a medal will be an extraordinary achievement this time.

Is Brazil U-23 trying to emulate Portugal in the Euro?

DelPo What an amazing achievement coming from a long inactivity period and an irregular performance in the previous months... Let's see if he can advance to the medal matches.

Spain Well done defeating the Aussies, yet only one early goal-

A decent final place for Moreno, 31 in all around... I expected both Mexican competitors to advance to a final (Moreno in vault, Corral in pommel horse), but they fell somewhat short.

Still is always better to advance one round further

Wow, Calderano and Aruna in last 16... an American player back in that round since Athens and a first for an African player.

Congrats to your players... what can I say, Mexicans never saw any chance to beat them

Dipa is in the vault final Congrats to her and the Indian fans...

Gymnasts up to Flavia Saraiva are mathematically qualified for the all around (of course, minus former Olympic champion Douglas)

Moreno I can only pray for a miracle in the next two apparatus so she can sneak in the all around.

And first seeds in men double's are out Amazing match for Cabal/Farah of Colombia

Oh, come on who remembered that?

Portuguese Martins used "Derniere Danse" by Indila in her floor performance

I'm speechless, I can't believe this... they're playing like there is no tomorrow.

Zavala I'm beyond sadness, it was so close for her, yet her nerves got her in the end... I could already feel the first medal today. Still, she's a great athlete and makes us proud, probably the best finish ever by a Mexican shooter. Also a brave effort by Goretti Zumaya yesterday in 10m Air Rifle... she's only 19 and has prove she can compete with women older than her. Let's see what happens in Tokyo four years from now (also, to increase our number of shooters)

You're right I forgot about him... there's a medal chance for France.

Sad indeed that he underperforms in the most important competition Corral still has to perform on parallel bars, but I'm not holding any hope.

At least he scored above 14 points, unlike Corral... but seeing this subdivision scores, makes me suspicious about fair judging. As I commented earlier, Larduet didn't perform his vault correctly (if at all, he just bounced without maintaning any position and landed on his knees) and still managed a score over 13 points
