France win the volleyball
Was the WR before this set on treacle?
So how do these cycling sprints work? Do the 2 fastest go into the gold medal race and the next 2 go into the bronze?
Why so many WR?
Better bikes?
Can't imagine the surface changing?
Better techniques?

In this event or overall? I am losing track.
With a huge comeback from 2-0.
Feck
Yes. To all of that. Also really fast track conditions evidently
This event
I reckon they must be riding those souped up e-bikes…
Told you I was losing track.Feck

You could have just lost you know, no need to copy us
Ngapeth and Brizard should celebrate this with a swim in the Seine
Has the surfing been moved again? Can't see it as an option on discovery plus?
The final of the sprint is going to be crazy, just 0.01 between GB & NZ
Germany had a 2-0 set lead against France in Volleyball. France won 3-2.
They will play Italy in the SF.
They will play Italy in the SF.
Looked so good the first two sets
No world record. That's a bit rubbish. Just joking.
Oh they did? I only caught the match point
These steeplechase jumps look really high
I agree. Loved it.
Germany did. Their comeback in the second set was really good. I thought that France had that set, but no.Looked so good the first two sets
Then France started to play more freely on Set 3 and beyond.
The steeplechase is absolutely ridiculous
This women's sprint is just wild. World record after world record. Eek
Seems like a fecking crazy amount of effort
Pole vault in a bit I think
Steeplechase has to be the most pointless track and field event. Given it's origins, just pick two points about 2 miles apart and race between them.
0.1s between top 3 in women’s cycling QFs! Tight.
Germany win their race, break a world record and find themselves racing for Bronze. Harsh school at this Olympics!
Yeah, Germany were very dominant in the first two sets and very solid the rest of the game.
They don't just have a final even, they have to do at least a heat, I couldn't even make it halfway round the track
Is Femke Bol doing any more things this Olympics?
What happens in the olympic village stays in the olympic village
She's got the 400m hurdles final hasn't she? Not sure if they've done that yet or not
Not sure if she has any other events
You're uselessLooked so good the first two sets
Crap. It's Tokyo all over again
Fascinating listening to Laura Kelly talking about heated pants for recovery for the sprinters. Got to keep the muscles warm without wasting energy.
First Olympics for German volleyball in two decades or something, of course we're useless

Why are you blushing?
Germany were clearly dominant in the first set.
In the second set, though, France was leading throughout, had 2 set points (24-22) and then another at 26-25. That was a very balanced set, probably should’ve been gone France’s way. And so I wouldn’t say that Germany was dominating in the second. They were very solid, though.
It just reminds me of how deeply entrenched my couch potato status isWhy are you blushing?
I know nothing about volleyball or its rules, but German commentary isn't happy with the ref
France were a bit lucky in the second sets with some ridiculous 'individual' efforts while Germany were collectively above France. The rest was very even and at a high level from both teams.
You should have lost 3-0 then -.- don't get them going and start playing like mutants ffs
Probably for the red card of Krick for taunting.
