    Korea just needs a tie or a win to advance. Mexico fighting for their lives right now as Germany smashed the goal difference they needed.

    Mexico basically is being punished for beating Fiji only 5-1.

    Germany in double digits. Hope the other game remains a draw so we win the group.

    GOAL! KOREA!

    Germany with a 10-0.

    If Mexico comes back with a goal and ties Germany takes 1st and Korea takes 2nd.
    If Mexico comes back with 2 goals and wins Germany takes 1st, Mexico takes 2nd.
    In the current state with a Korea win... Korea takes 1st and Germany takes 2nd.

    Korea wins the group, Mexico out.

    So Germany vs Portugal in the quarters. Too bad Kimmich, Sané and Weigl weren't available. With them, this team would seriously contend for gold.

    A total meltdown for El Tri especially with a red card near the end of the game.

    Well at least Cubo Torres is going back to Houston sooner unexpectedly.

    The only person I like on the USA basketball team is Kyle Lowry. If they end up losing I might not even be mad... They can still win the gold with a loss, but the ridicule Draymond, Durant, and Klay would receive would be sweet ambrosia. I'm a hater.. Please don't tell the State Department...

    WTF Andersen? 4/4? gtfo...

    After basketball you guys can check out the battle for Bronze behind china. A virtual unknown from north korea is going against a super famous japanese girl. Kim Song I beat Ding Ning one game in the semi's but it was a hard fought match.

    All defense from the PRK girl. Will be a great match. Tune in.

    North Korea in the Olympics? WTH? So do they execute their athletes if they don't bring back the Gold?

    Lily King talked all that trash against the Russian chick but the Russian chick qualified for the 200m while King got seventh in the semis. So it seems King is only good at one thing while the Russian is a much better all around swimmer. King should learn to keep her mouth shut if she can't back it up by being a better all around swimmer.

    She was the 27th seed and took out the 6 and 4th seeded japanese powerhouses (losing only to China 4-1) to win the bronze on her 22nd birthday. Then she cried for a while while her coach ignored her, scared to show any emotion. Great Olympic moment.

    In the all china gold medal match China got up 3 games to 2 but then China came back to win it in the 7th game. Silver went to China and the Gold medal winner was China.
