    Gold Medal - Brazilpublished at 00:10 British Summer Time 21 August 2016

    Men's football

    Believe it or not, it is Brazil's first ever Olympic gold medal in football.

    It may not be the World Cup, but for a nation of football-mad Brazilians this buries a few of the demons from the 7-1 loss to Germany two years ago.

    Straight down the middle. The man who carries Brazilian football n his shoulders hands his nation the gold medal they craved the most.

    Tears. Piles of players on top of each other. Jubilation in the Maracana.

    It is a poor penalty from Gnabry. He didn't strike it well and Weverton knows he should have saved it.

    It really is gripping stuff.

    It's been so much better than extra time in so many games we see - maybe because there is so much at stake.

    This stadium is having a collective heart-attack every time the German side attack. They are admirably mature for such a young side.
