You can watch it here.

Peter Sagan is suffering.

The Slovak Tour de France rider has a flat and has to take a trip to the technical tents for a new front wheel.

He will have to make up a lot of ground.

L Higgins: Peter Sagan is simply a cut above and technically brilliant bike handler.

Nathan Price: What a bike rider @petosagan is! Unbelievable bike handling skills during the mountain bike considering road race WC.

Thomas Golightly: Olympic mountain biking is my new favourite - this is carnage!

Germany are back on the handball podium for the first time since their silver in Athens 12 years ago thanks to a 31-25 win over Poland.

The start loop s a real looker, a rollercoaster ride, full of speed and lumps with some beautiful views.

Marco Fontana is the early leader with Switzerland's Nino Schurter up into second.

Peter Sagan of Slovakia is up in third.

The field fly at the course.

Slovakia’s reigning road world champion Peter Sagan is amongst them.

He is a junior world champion in the discipline, but you might think a lack of recent experience would limit his Rio chances.

You will be unsurprised to hear he thinks otherwise.

He has looked a little wobbly through some of the technical sections so far.

Break out the bunting. 

Great Britain have finished second in the Rio 2016 medal table - above China for the first time.

China are one of the Games' dominant nations, with more than 200 gold medals since debuting in 1984.

Britain has 27 golds to China's 26 and their superior haul of silvers - 22 to 18 - means China cannot overtake them with only one more athlete in action.

France's Julien Absalon is a two-time Olympic champion, and only missed out at London 2012 because of a punctured tire. 

However, his main opposition this time around could well be Nino Schurter, Switzerland's rider who has won four of the last five world championships.Czech Republic’s Jaroslav Kulhavy is both the reigning Olympic champion and the 2016 world championship silver medallist.

The only Brit is Grant Ferguson, an under-23 world championship bronze medallist, who is not expected to challenge.

Well played sir.

Defending champions Russia may have had their title taken from them, but they were at least on there way to a medal, taking the first two sets.

But the USA came storming back, took the third and fourth sets to send it to a decider, then snuck the fifth 15-13 to complete the comeback.

Italy and hosts Brazil face off for the gold at 19:15 BST.
