Some impressive diving by GB. Can they beat the discipline of China? I hope so

Come on Tom Daley, get us that gold!

Just don't do what I do on the Olympic game.  I either do belly flops or back flops.

It's looking like Team GB's first gold won't come until either the Gymnastics or the Rowing tomorrow.

You're like the reverse of Project. Whenever he slates England in football they end up turning it around shortly after

This fencing match is insane!

It's Germany vs. Korea and it was 5-5 on the last round with simultaneous hits for all 10 points. If there was no decisive score in sudden death it was going to the Korean woman. There was so many restarts due to simultaneous hits and the time was getting closer and closer to 0. At 1 second left there was 3 restarts and the German fencer was leaping at her as soon as the ref started the round again.  Then on her last attempt the clock went to 0 AFTER the simulations hit. They decided to restart the clock and reset it to 1 second. They fence again and somehow the German pulled off a hit and won the match. 

But it wasn't over, then the Korean coach went mental saying how can there be so many restarts with a second left, the timekeeper must've made a mistake the match should've been over. So the judges are having a meeting to decide what to do and if the decision should stand. The Korean is crying and everyone's waiting to see what will happen. Probably the most epic moment of the Olympics I've watched so far

Edit: After about 15/20 minutes, they've made the decision stand. Now they're escorting the Coach out and the Korean is stood there heartbroken crying. Poor girl. She's not moving from the stage. This was crazy

Edit #2: And it's still not over. The reason she has not moved is because if she does it means she accepts the decision, the reason the coach walked off was to write a hand written formal appeal not too far from the stage. So now this is going to be reconsidered again. If accepted they will have to go off and deliberate over this entire thing. I didn't think things could be so dramatic!

Triple post. Edit time has ran out this has taken so long . The appeal was accepted but the decision stood for a third time. She cried and nearly got black carded (DQ'ed) for not leaving the stage after the final decision but one of the officials hugged her and told her not to throw away her chance at a bronze medal. So she left the stage crying and has to get ready for the next match. That was crazy.
