USA are now looking more the part of a potential sixth-straight Olympic champions, as they end the second quarter (half-time) 49-32 ahead. Spain have played their part so far, they have been aggressive, and star player Alba Torrens has scored 13 points.

But the US at one point in the second quarter slotted 10 unanswered points, with a couple of three-pointers from Diana Taurasi helping that cause, and it's put the defending champions in the driving seat.

GB's Mahama Cho is up for his quarter-final against Iranian Sajjad Mardani.

Watch it here.

It's a brave and skilled opponent that will stand against Mahama Cho nowadays but his journey to Olympian hasn't been an easy one.

Talking to Get Inspired back when Rio was a dream, Cho talks about his tough up bringing in West Africa, being bullied and his exile in France.

The point-scoring has picked up a notch in what was a slow burner.

The USA have a narrow 27-24 lead midway through the second quarter.

We showed you Lutalo Muhammad on the BBC earlier with Clare Balding and he said his final-second defeat felt like the "low point" of his life but is "overwhelmed" by the support after the loss.

"There have been so many great messages that I have received from fans back home and here in Brazil," he said.

"It is completely unexpected and made me feel so much better.

"The best athletes are tested with adversity and have come through it this is my second Olympics and it is my second time on the podium so I have a lot to be proud of."

If you ever need cheering up, a tweet from Eddie Izzard should do the trick.

Kemperboyd: "Come on the pun is obvious: Maddie is Hinchspirational"

Barrington: "I had to Hinch myself this morning ... What a result"

James Dutton: "Hinch me, I must be dreaming!"

The gates have opened and fans are beginning to stream into the Maracana Stadium for the gold medal men's football match between Brazil and Germany - three hours before kick off.

The nation awaits, nervous and desperate to avenge the 7-1 defeat in the World Cup semi-final in 2014. Expect a sea of yellow shirts inside what the stadium announcer has just called the "temple of football". It is going to be massive!  

Nigeria win their first Olympic medal from Rio 2016, after beating Honduras 3-2 in the bronze medal match.

If you like your gymnastics in a rhythmic form, you may be pleased to learn that the women's individual all-around final is up and running.

The first rotation is on the hoop and you can follow proceedings here.

Carl Green: Re. Hockey team puns, how about "GB Goalkeeper doesn't give a Hinch"

Hugo Legh: A hinch and a hunch, we're the first of the bunch...

Olympic diving silver medallist on BBC TV

Tom used the word heartbroken and that sums it up. 

He dived so well yesterday and he just could not connect, he was slightly out all day. 

Tom quite rightly said it was one of those things. He left himself too much to do on that final dive and I felt physically sick afterwards and that was only a portion of what Tom was feeling. 

The positive for me was that Tom said he wanted to go to Tokyo and I am delighted to hear that.

Odd final this. Very low scoring. Three and a bit minutes of the first quarter remaining and it's 10-10 between the USA and Spain.

Watch it here.

Charley Hull said she got a buzz from competing at the Olympics.

Maybe you could too?
