    GB 1-2 NZpublished at 21:28 British Summer Time 7 August 2016

    This tournament is heading in the wrong direction for Britain's men - Hayden Phillips is given far too much space and fires in a superb reverse-stick strike to give the Black Sticks the lead early in the second quarter.

    South Korea won their eighth straight women's team archery gold, beating Russia five set points to one in the final. 

    South Korea have won the event every time since it's introduction in 1984, but Russia won the World Championships in 2015.

    It's a lovely goal - he takes down a high, looping ball and with his second touch of the stick cracks a sot across George Pinner and into the corner of the goal.

    The second quarter is just starting and you can watch here.

    Bart and Tony

    Meet Tony and Bart. Two guys from Netherlands who love their hockey. 

    They are like celebrities here and pose for selfie after selfie. They even have a set pose. As I prepare to take a snap they say "let's do a good one," and instantly adopt the same stance. It's clearly been worked on.

    They say they are here to watch Dutch women's hockey. 

    On the Deodoro venue Bart on the left says: "There's lots of security." Tony points to "not much food at the venue".

    A lot of people have flagged the latter up.

    On a good note, their team beat Spain 5-0 in the women's game earlier.

    GB's Joe Clarke after finishing second in qualifying with a much-improved second run in the kayak slalom: "It was actually a worse run time-wise compared to the first without the 50-second penalty. It was quite a good indication of what I can do. It's very positive. To live that Olympic dream was fantastic."

    Earlier today, GB's Joe Clarke was given a 50-second penalty during his first run in the kayak slalom. It meant he dropped from first to last.

    But, we're all about second chances around here, and Clarke used his second run brilliantly, recording a time of 86.95 to sit second easily qualify for Wednesday's semi-final.

    David Florence also secured a spot for GB in Tuesday's canoe slalom semi by finishing top of his qualifying session earlier today.
