Angus:Watching the Winter Olympics is always a visceral experience - the snowboarding makes me gasp in awe, the moguls make my knees feel sore and the cross-country skiing just leaves me feeling exhausted.

Ice Hockey: Japan 0-1 Sweden
The action moves pretty quick at the Winter Olympics and it is straight over to the ice hockey, with Japan and Sweden in women's preliminary round action.
Sweden take the lead with a goal from Fanny Rask, as 'Chase the Sun' by Planet Funk plays around the arena as the puck hits the net.
You will have heard that song if you have ever watched any PDC darts event as that is their main theme.
When darts meets the Winter Olympics. Anyone in fancy dress in south Korea?

History for Marit Bjoergen, as she becomes the most decorated female Winter Olympian of all time.
Finland's Krista Parmakoski takes the bronze medal, Norway's Ingvild Oestberg was in second but faded late on and can only come 11th.

Charlotte Kalla has two gold medals to her name, is she going to make it a treble.
She took individual gold in the 10km freestyle in Vancouver in 2010 and then was part of the victorious Sweden team in the 4x5km relay four years ago.

Commentator on BBC TVThis is a big move by Charlotte Kalla. This is really exciting to see. For me Marit Bjoergen played it badly. There is a big gap now. Will she be able to make it up or will that prove costly? Bjoergen is going to have to do something special now.

The Swedish fans are getting excited, waving their flags as their woman, Charlotte Kalla leads the way. Norway's Ingvild Oestberg is in the silver medal position, with Marit Bjoergen down in third.
Kalla's lead is at 9.6 seconds. A brutal hill to go and gold is close.
