Galal Yafai has stopped an Armenian and a Cuban, that doesn't happen - so really the Kazak should be easy fare for him. The only problem with this Kazak is that he's beaten everyone, for instance the two men in the other semi-final in the last Olympic cycle, he has handled them comfortably, he's a good fighter. All Kazaks are good fighters, all Uzbeks are good fighters, all Cubans are good fighters and the final part of that sentence is that all GB boxers are good fighters.

We've set a record, we've won six medals, more than we have done before, we've had two losing finalists. We need Galal to get to the final because he can beat either of the other guys in the other semi-final. Then we need Lauren Price to beat her nemesis tomorrow and get to the final. I don't want to be on the radio on Sunday celebrating six medals and someone pipes up saying 'yes but Buncey, none of them are gold' - that will break my heart.

Galal Yafai has already guaranteed himself a bronze medal by reaching the men's flyweight semi-final but the 28-year-old Brit is looking to turn that into a potential gold by beating Kazakhstan's Saken Bibossinov today.

The Commonwealth Games gold medallist, from Birmingham, has been rooming with Ben Whittaker and Frazer Clarke, who took silver and bronze in their events yesterday, so was determined to not return home empty-handed.

With six medals guaranteed in Tokyo, this is Team GB's best return in the boxing ring since 1920.

We're five minutes away from seeing whether Galal Yafai can book himself a spot in the gold-medal fight...

Steve 'Statto' Sutcliffe has been crunching the numbers. Here are some GB tallies from the last 10 Games...

• 1984 - 337 competitors, 37 medals
• 1988 - 345 competitors, 24 medals
• 1992 - 371 competitors, 20 medals
• 1996 - 300 competitors, 15 medals
• 2000 - 310 competitors, 28 medals
• 2004 - 264 competitors, 30 medals
• 2008 - 311 competitors, 51 medals
• 2012 - 541 competitors, 65 medals
• 2016 - 366 competitors, 67 medals
• 2021 - 376 competitors, 49 medals

Still loads to come on Thursday in Tokyo, here's a taster...

• Galal Yafai fights for a place in men's flyweight final (from 06:48 BST)
• Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix and Lois Toulson compete in the women's 10m platform diving (final at 07:00)
• Matthew Walls is in omnium action from 07:30 BST, with Jason Kenny and Jack Carlin in the men's sprint shortly after
• Tom Bosworth competes in the men's 20km race walk in Sapporo (from 08:30)
• Holly Bradshaw, fourth at the last World Championships and fifth in Rio, competes in the women's pole vault (11:20-13:30).

End of the third quarter of this semi-final and the USA are now well ahead.

They lead Australia 74-55 with Devin Booker really stepping it up - 11 of his 18 points came in that quarter, single-handedly outscoring the Aussies.

The defending champions are heading for their fourth consecutive gold medal game as it stands.

Just waking up and joining us? Let's have a look at what happened overnight...

• Great Britain added to their medal tally with Liam Heath winning bronze in K1 200m
• GB's women broke a British record in the 4x100m relay heats as Dina Asher-Smith returned to track
• The men's quartet followed them into Friday's 4x100m finals
• Hector Pardoe withdrew mid-race after being elbowed in the eye in the marathon swimming
• Andrew Pozzi finished seventh in the men's 110m hurdles final

Thanks Gary, a cracking stint there - worthy of a place on top of the live text podium.

Now grab yourself a brew and a kip... (or a cup of matcha if you're feeling immersed in the Tokyo culture).

Anyway, back to the action, let's see what's going down in Japan...

Just the solitary GB medal during my watch overnight but taking over from me now is the main man Alex Bysouth and gold is his middle name (as of two minutes ago) so expect the medals to come flooding in.

All yours Al!

American Nelly Korda is absolutely flying at the top of the the leaderboard in the women's golf at present.

The world number one is nine under par after 15 holes in her second round, taking her to 13 under overall.

Denmark's Nanna Koerstz Madsen and Emily Kristine Pedersen are both in the clubhouse on nine under along with India's Aditi Ashok.

Australia are stunned. This is a completely different USA team to the one that started the game and they now lead by nine points - 59-50.

Every part of their game has improved but it all started when Kevin Durant took control of the game himself. He's got 23 points but has also been doing his bit in defence too.

There was another sensational skateboarding final earlier as 18-year-old Keegan Palmer blew away the competition to win gold. See how he did it below.

This moment belongs to Harrington, her emotions begin to overflow now. Looking to emulate the accomplishments of her compatriot Katie Taylor, who took the inaugural Olympic lightweight title in London 2012.

What a performance from Harrington, this late bloomer, who continued to toil and work in the gym. You hear John Conlan (her coach) say 'one more fight,' because she is through to contest for Olympic gold.

Some fightback by USA as they overturn a 12-point deficit to now lead 46-45.

They are moving the ball around the court quickly now and Australia are struggling.

And Ireland's Kellie Anne Harrington is into the final! She beats Sudaporn Seesondee on a split decision and will box for Olympic gold.

She will be back in the ring on 8 August, while Seesondee takes the bronze medal.

Seesondee thinks she's done enough but this is gong to very, very close indeed...

Harrington has the support of an entire community as she tries to land a punch. Every house in her street back home has an Irish flag hanging outside.

Richie Woodhall
Former boxing world champion on BBC TV

"Harrington is boxing well on that back foot and landing judge-friendly shots at long range.

"Seesondee is always there, but the eye-catching work is coming from Harrington at the minute"

Laura: Makes me sad to hear athletes apologising to their country for not getting a medal. If you're happy then we're happy and it isn't like we could do any better.

Former boxing world champion on BBC TV

They realise it's close and that they need to do a little more. Harrington is clever, tricky and a skillful boxer, and she rarely makes mistakes over the front foot.

A couple of counter-attacks from Harrington were needed - but it was a better round for Seesondee.

Into the third and final round and there is all to play for after a close first two rounds.
