What a win by the Sharks 🦈 The Aussies have knocked off London gold medallists and Rio silver medallists Croatia in the water polo! Olympics Tokyo2020 MORE:

July 27th, 2021 11:20 pm

There was some early VAR controversy against debutant Australian goalkeeper Anthony Hrysanthos after Sharks captain Aaron Younger gave away a penalty while the game was deadlocked at 0-0. The Shark attack continued in the third quarter with Australia extending their lead to four goals over the Croatians, leading 7-3.

Germany’s Ricarda Funk was the woman crowned Olympic champion in the end, with a time of 105.50, while Spain’s Maialen Chourraut picked up the silver.SEVENS DREAM ENDS FOR AUSSIESFiji – the reigning gold medallists – ended Australia’s hopes on a beautiful evening at Tokyo Stadium by winning 19-0 in the quarter finals.

WNBA guard Steph Talbot was ruled out of the game with a foot injury as veteran Kate Ebzery was drafted into the starting five for the Opals as Belgium’s outside shooting proved too good in the early stages and was a big reason for their first-quarter lead. But a lead that came so quickly seemed to trickle away just as fast, with Belgium managing to bounce back and put themselves one point behind the Opals heading into the fourth quarter.

With a snatch of 101kg, Elliott cleared the field by 10kg, then topping her group with a 108kg clean and jerk to finish on 209kg, with her nearest challenger 7kg behind. Medina is a two-tim eworld champion but ran out of time to beat Wright, who cleverly used his priority to make sure the Brazilian couldn’t pick the waves he wanted.

“I was three years into it and I was getting - the Olympics including surfing it spurred on to my best. Getting that medal, it really just sealed that for me, and, yeah, I do it for the TBI guys too.”James Duckworth’s nail-biting 5-6, 1-6 loss against Russian World No. 25 Karen Khachanov signalled a disappointing end to Australia’s tennis singles journey.

Ellen Perez and Sam Stosur have fought their way to the final eight, while Ash Barty and Storm Sanders have breezed past their competitors, not losing a single set.Australia’s Sally Fitzgibbons has been knocked out of the women’s surfing at the quarter-final stage after losing to Japan’s Amuro Tsuzuki.And although Fitzgibbons improved her second score to 5.50, her time ran out as the right wave didn’t come, meaning her score was stuck on 11.67.
