That's right MadridMan! And today, David Cal just won the silver in the 1000m C1!! The flood gates are open!

We'll be seen to Mr Gasol and company today. They were an embarrass in the last basketball game. Spain vs France 5:15 pm

jazz, you can say that again. Spain has not been playing in their typical style in men's basketball lately. I was SO happy to see them beat (but nearly lose to) a street-fighting-style French team. Man, those last 2 minutes were brutal! I seriously expected ejections for the French team, but it never happened.

Murdy, yesterday was a good day for Spain, indeed!!

GOLD MEDAL: Taekwondo (Men's -58kg), Joel González Bonilla from Figueres.

SILVER MEDAL: Taekwondo (Women's -49kg), Brigitte Yague Enrique from Mallorca.

SILVER MEDAL: Men's Canoe Sprint (Men's Canoe Single (C1) 1000m), David Cal Figueroa.

Good job, Spain!!

Saludos, MadridMan

well Spain won well, and the French call out tricks to avoid the USA and instead play Russia.
interview on French TV, British PM David Cameron spoke very well to his own allegations of tricks in cycling.

AFter seeing reports on several languages and to be fair I do think the French are bad losers... And I know them well ::)

SILVER MEDAL: Women's Water Polo

BRONZE MEDAL (tied): Wrestling (Women's 72kg Freestyle), Joel Maider Unda from Victoria.

BRONZE MEDAL: Women's Synchronised Swimming (Teams Final)
