From Stuff (Clareburt's splits):
Needs to work on his butterfly.
Probably blew his load a bit last night in the heats. But with no semis it’s very difficult to ease off.
Seems ridiculous too that final wasn’t in tonight’s session which is normally the case
Yeah what’s the story about that? Weird watching a final in the morning.
May have been posted .... but Yank TV.
Finals are evening US time, i.e., morning JP time.
Expect this is a #booboo

As I said before, it's all to do with having the finals broadcast in the evening for the US market. They must pay the IOC the big money.
Yep #booboo

I wish this English commentator could pronounce the names of Cacace and Stanger right. Annoying.
Weird, I can't even fucken find it on any of the dozen or so channels here! They almost seem to be going out of their way to not broadcast anything involving NZ.
And the BBC blurb for their coverage mentioned the Brit in the road race and that Katie Ledecky is swimming today. WTF?

This keeper is a shocker. Do we not have anyone better?

You'll struggle to find a softer goal than the Oly Whites just gave up.

You're not wrong.

So the Keeper has single handedly lost us the match.

Is the Phoenix keeper not a Kiwi? This guy just cost us a place in the next round

That was frustrating with those soft goals. I don't totally blame Woud for the 2nd goal but put your laces through it boy!
We really missed Reid in the 2nd half to marshall the defence, and NZ tired badly in the heat.
In the second goal the defender should have never put Woud in the situation he found himself in. We created enough chances to win. So disappointing

Yep. Needed that 3rd goal. The Wood free kick, a better cross from Ingham to Wood, etc.
I've never heard of the other 2 GKs in the squad. Sail is too old.
