Yessssssss China lose
What an incredible lift by the Filipino athlete to win the gold on the final clean and jerk. It did not look like she'd get it up on the clean. What a fantastic result for her and the Phillipines

Popular in Continental Europe but, unfortunately, its presence is non-existent in Britain which explains why it never took off here and in other Commonwealth countries.

This volleyball match is so good. The rallies are outstanding, I’m blown away by this sport. I enjoyed it in Rio but this is next level. Genuinely awesome sport. Go Japan!
First ever gold for the Philippines?

It was popular at my school, no idea why but we always had a team for it. I'm guessing one of the teachers must have seen it in the Olympics and put the team together. And it's just been passed on ever since.
Our school went to state championships most years because no other school really could play it.
Today has been incredible. So many great moments as well. I've watched so many sports:
Fencing
Table tennis
Weightlifting
Swimming
Gymnastics
Softball
Handball
Basketball
Tennis
Hockey
Water polo
Mountain bike riding
Surfing

During the day yesterday they said the sand temperature was over 50 degrees celsius!

It was always popular in PE classes at my school, everyone loved playing it and when given the choice of what to do it was chosen pretty regularly.
That was it though. No one played it outside of PE.
The Japanese women's hockey outfit looks great! Fantastic colour.

This table tennis final is quite the battle. Japanese tram have come back from 2 sets down to take the lead. Would be a huge upset.
China have won 28/32 gold medals in table tennis since 1988.

I find myself yelling with the players when they win the point.
And by that, I mean when the Japanese win a point
