USA win women's football bronze medal

The US finished with a bronze medal in the women's football tournament, despite a difficult start to the competition. The four-time Olympic champions defeated Australia 4-3 in an entertaining match.

Megan Rapinoe opened the scoring with a stunning goal, curving a corner into the Australian net. Sam Kerr then equalised, before Rapinoe hit back with an incredible first-time volley. Carli Lloyd then made it 3-1 to the US just before half-time.

The US looked set to win the clash comfortably after Lloyd got her second goal in the 51st minute. But Caitlin Foord then scored for Australia in the 54th minute, before Emily Gielnik grabbed a goal just minutes before full-time to produce a nervy conclusion to the game.

The American team managed to hang on to earn their sixth medal of the Olympic women's football tournament.

Dina Asher-Smith returns for 4x100m relay

Katarina Johnson-Thompson releases emotional statement on Olympic withdrawal

World heptathlon champion Katarina Johnson-Thompson has published an emotional statement after she was forced to withdraw from Tokyo 2020 with a calf injury. The 28-year-old limped over the line in yesterday’s 200m race after pulling up in the final stretch, having waved away a wheelchair.

"I don't know where to begin in trying to explain how I feel," she said. "Only a handful of people understand what I've been through. Even a smaller amount understand the mental and physical challenges I've faced trying to make it back in time through a pandemic after my Achilles ruptured the back end of December. I started the year in a wheelchair and I was not willing to end my Olympic campaign the same way."

Johnson-Thompson added: "I've been knocked so many times and got back up, but it will take a lot of time for me to process this reality."

Quan Hongchan produces three 10s to win diving gold

Quan Hongchan, the youngest member of China’s Olympic team at 14-years-old, earned gold in the women’s 10m platform. She did so by producing three perfect-10 dives – all with a difficulty rating of 3.2 – to achieve an incredible final score of 466.20.

Her compatriot Chen Yuxi took silver, while Australia’s Melissa Wu was the bronze medallist.

Kellie Harrington reaches lightweight boxing final

Kellie Harrington progressed to the women's lightweight boxing final after a 3-2 split decision result over Thailand's Sudaporn Seesondee in the semi-finals. The Irish boxer had previously defeated Seesondee in the final of the World Championships in 2018.

Harrington has become only the second female boxer from her country to earn an Olympic medal – behind London 2012 Olympic champion Katie Taylor.
