    Still 0-0 in the Oly Whites v Japan game.

    Very shakey here in the gt12 household. My wife - who never watches sport - is very behind Japan putting us away and we keep staying in it.

    I might never get laid again if we win.

    Hasn't she heard of "To the victor go the spoils?" 🤭

    She’s more of a kick them in the nuts and never speak to them again, kind of girl.

    @canefan said in Olympics Thread:

    I am always puzzled as to why they insist on 2 ET halves. How about OT1 then OT2 only if the score is still locked?

    An outdoor sport so allowing for wind, sun etc being a factor.

    Long jump. Amazing how many get their starting marker in the wrong spot.

    Our goalkeeper is just showing off now. Doesn't even need to use his hands to save it

    Pivotal. The cross deserved better

    That's the worst attempt I've seen for a while. It's like he panicked.

    I thought he did well to trap the cross after it came through Wood's legs. Got tangled up and the end result was disappointing

    The cross beat the defender and Wood. A Minties moment.

    Obvious deflection but the ref calls it a goal kick?
