If you had told the Czechs they would be level 1-1 at the end of the second period, they would have bitten your hand off and smiled an awful lot.

It’s been a fascinating game of hockey.

Reigning holders USA are still at 1-1 in their quarter-final against the Czech Republic.

The Czechs scored with their first shot on target, while the US had more than 20 shots before equalising.

It's into the third period and will be live on the BBC Red Button. But the Czechs have just had a player advantage for five minutes and failed to score in that time. Will that come back to haunt them?

BBC Sport senior news reporter Laura Scott on the story surrounding Russian Olympic Committee figure skater Kamila Valieva, after the International Testing Agency confirmed the 15-year-old failed a drugs test in December:

"At the heart of this is a 15-year-old athlete. There are concerns over her welfare and the potential involvement of others in this.

"But viewers would be forgiven for feeling a sense of depressing deja vu that once again we are at an Olympics, there is a doping controversy and it involves Russia."

Great Britain skip Eve Muirhead looks back on the key moments that have shaped her journey to become a four-time Olympian aiming to win gold in Beijing.

Mikaela Shiffrin's smile at the finish was as big as if she had won the race.

The American, who skied out of her past two races and at one point cast doubt on whether she would compete any more at Beijing 2022, had made it to the bottom of the women's super-G.

It did not matter that she finished ninth, this was about much more than that for the pre-Games favourite.

Switzerland's Lara Gut-Behrami won the race, becoming the first super-G world champion to also win the Olympic title.

Austrian Mirjam Puchner took silver and Swiss Michelle Gisin got the bronze.

Czech defending champion Ester Ledecka, who was going for a historic multi-sport double-double after retaining her snowboard parallel giant slalom title, finished fifth.

We've got live ice hockey on BBC One right now and it's 1-1 in the women's quarter-final between strong favourites the United States and the Czech Republic.

And these are the highlights of what happened in that match.

GB men's skip Bruce Mouat says they know what it takes to recover after the 9-7 defeat by the USA. They face Norway at 12:05.

"We are all quite aware of what happens when you lose games and bouncing back, we've done it a lot at World Championships," the Scot said.

"I'm still looking forward to the game against Norway - if we play well, we will be in a really good spot, we've just got a few things to iron out.

"But this is only our second game in a few months, so still getting back to playing with the boys and just need to figure out a few more things."

This will be a lot closer than the Americans would have hoped for at this point in the proceedings.

USA need a bit of something from somewhere.

The Czechs are playing their way and have found themselves under less pressure.

We've had four hours of action today and this is how the medal table now looks, with Germany on top thanks to their six golds.

So there was to be no medal for Shaun White, but there was for this man - Ayumu Hirano, who took gold in sensational fashion.

Take a few minutes to sit back and just enjoy this masterful brilliance.

Today has seen the end of one legendary Winter Olympics career as three-time gold medallist Shaun White finished fourth in the men's halfpipe final.

Fellow American Lindsey Vonn, the downhill champion in 2010, with a bronze eight years later in the same event as well as another one in the 2010 super-G, has tweeted her friend.

Great Britain's men's curlers were beaten 9-7 by Olympic champions the United States in the first of their two matches on Friday.

Bruce Mouat, Grant Hardie, Bobby Lammie, and Hammy McMillan fought back from an early 5-2 deficit but the Americans were clinical in the ninth end to take a decisive lead.

It means the British rink have one win and one loss so far.

They next face Norway, at 12:05 GMT, while the women's team play at 06:05.

Eve Muirhead's side take on South Korea in their third match, having recovered from an opening loss to beat Sweden 8-2 on Thursday.

In both events, the 10 competing teams play each other once in a round-robin format, with the top four progressing to the semi-finals.

Australia's Jaclyn Narracott, who leads the women's skeleton at the halfway mark, comes from a very sporty family.

Her uncle Paul Narracott was the first Australian to compete at both the summer and winter Olympics.

He was a sprinter, racing in both the 100m and 200m at the summer Olympics in Los Angeles in 1984, before switching to bobsleigh and he competed in the Winter Olympics in Albertville in 1992.

Jaclyn Narracott is also married to Dom Parsons, the Briton who won a skeleton bronze medal four years ago in South Korea.

Lara Gut-Behrami seems to be wiping away the occasional tear while waiting for the rest of the field to race.

Emotional times as the Swiss waits to see if her time will be enough for gold. The last few skiers have finished a good couple of seconds behind her, she's really not being troubled by anyone at the moment.

There are 14 more to go.

Britain's Lizzy Yarnold won gold in the women's skeleton in both 2014 and 2018 before she retired later that year.

This is how she sees the competition in 2022...
