Great Britain's Chris Langridge and Marcus Ellis will play for the Olympic bronze medal after defeat in the semi-final of the men's doubles. 

They lost 21-14 21-18 to Chinese fourth seeds Fu Haifeng and Zhang Nan.

The pair will face China's Hong Wei and Chai Biao for bronze on Thursday, bidding to become Britain's first badminton medallists since Gail Emms and Nathan Roberston in the mixed in Athens 2004.

Here's a handy recap of how the omnium has been so far for Laura Trott. She's been the epitome of consistency - either first or second in each of the five disciplines.

Now just 100 laps of the track separate her from becoming the first British woman to win four Olympic golds.

She has a large lead but after last night's bottom-squeaker for Mark Cavendish in the men's race, I'm not taking anything for granted in the craziness that is the points race!

Unusual but very exciting tactics from Laura Trott here.

We come to our first sprint and three breakaway riders look for the big points.

It has a Tour de France feel to it this race - Laura Trott doesn't have to worry about breakaways unless there's a rival in it.

There isn't on this occasion and in fact the British pocket rocket attacks and picks up the single point for coming fourth. She extends her lead.

Laura is very vigilant, she will have an eye on everybody but to be honest it is going to be a bit of a procession to Laura  winning the gold medal.

So, how's this points race malarkey work then?

It's 25km long - 100 laps - and there's a sprint every 10 laps, with 5pts, 3pts, 2pts and 1pt dished out for the top four of each sprint.

You can also get 20 points for lapping the field or lose 20 points if the field laps you.

GB's Laura Trott has a 24-point lead - she just has to stay in the mix.

There is always a risk Laura could crash but you learn how to crash without hurting yourself.

It is not pleasant but even if she falls off there will be spare bikes and the race is neutralised.

Laura could go on for a long time. She could be around for another three or four games from now with a ridiculous amount of medals. 

There is definitely more to come.

Laura Trott is 100 laps of a velodrome away from becoming a British sporting legend. Here we go...

Laura Trott's rivals going into this will have to do something incredible here. Laura is in a great position.

But knowing Laura she won't ride negatively, she will want to win this race.

Netherlands' Zonderland face plants in gymnastics routine

Olympic defending champion Epke Zonderland, also known as 'The Flying Dutch Man', fell flat on his face during the final of the gymnastics high bar.

It probably helped GB's Nile Wilson win bronze...

Laura Trott will become the first British woman to win four Olympic gold medals if she can convert her lead in the omnium in the points race.

It's coming up next. If you don't stay in your seat, I will find you and I will tell you off.

"It's not sunk in yet," Giles Scott told BBC Radio 5 live after sealing the Finn class title.

"It's so hard to describe it. You work so hard for so long for just one week in your life."
