BBC: "In this one it was more clear." Oh fuck off.

This time it surely wasn't Kenny. If Eilers gets disqualified here, that's an absolute disgusting monstrosity.

And now Kenny is of course going to win this. Damn.

No DSQ. Who could have guessed that. Wonder what would have happened if it was anyone with a different flag.

The rules are open to interpretation according to BBC..

That would be surprising

Belgium

Unbelievable.. Cool for Alison though

Though Jesse Owens beat them and he didn't

Holy shit how did they take this 2nd set?! That last serve to win the set

That's just as bad if you ask me I'm just sad because I was looking forward to watching a great match, like beach volleyball always is a big party, but the presence of a Brazilian team in the match makes it unbearable...just unacceptable. And as a fan that makes me sad, no matter who wins. Like in the gymnastics, I was really happy for Hypolito winning a medal since that was just awesome, but those crowds gave me mixed feelings...and the same story again for Thiago Braz.

No idea how that happened but gold for Serbia and everyone is mad

Medals are fun, but gold medals will be remembered way longer

This is worthy of complaining, I've never heard it being so bad in beach volleyball in any other country, normally it's one big party. And yes, that includes NED - BRA in the world champs final in the Netherlands last year, where (I looked it back before posting) there was no booing, only cheering for one team and a bit quiet for the other team. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against these players and I would be more than happy with both as finalists (Alison is by far my favourite player in the world), but this is just...no. No words. (Apart from the fact that I don't even really see this as a 'real' team sport with a full team instead of a duo)

Could someone replace those booing people in the stadium with actual beach volleyball fans?

And apparently several other riders have said it was a racing accident.

We're at 8 gold medals now, which is exactly what was realistic before the Olympics started But of course we still have some chances to go and reaching 10 gold medals would be both amazing and really not unrealistic

Absolutely, totally amazing winner in Fabian Hambüchen, finally Olympic gold and in presumably his last competition!

Sorry but this made me laugh

Flat on his face

Come on Epke Well I know he's injured, so gold would be a lot more surprising this time since he hasn't really shown anything that great in recent times

Zonderland has fallen down in his last training and looks like he might have hurt his already injured fingers even more..

Just responding to the attention given to him even if he'd just stand there and do nothing

Oduduru into the semi's

They're gonna do it, they've gotten the Brazilians quiet and wrote history
