Some cracking crowds in the other games yesterday, great to see the football loving Brazilians really taking to the Olympics.

Rulli seems to be playing well for Argentina. Just saved a pen. Althoigh he did give it away.

The penalty he saved was straight down the middle. He certainly doesn't seem to play the "Pep way", he's not a young Casillas. Lots of long balls and passing not brilliant. Gave the ball to Honduras near the end that nearly led to a second goal, the striker hit the post. Generally the standard of u23 football at the Olympics has been poor.

Missed a 1 on 1 with the keeper from about 4 yrds out...shot it straight at the keeper.
less than 5 minutes later he attacked the back post and volleyed from a cross to score.
I'm not really a City fan. I'm just here for attention.

Man, the players in this Brazil-Colombia match are spending more time on the ground than on their feet. Awful football

Jesus just scored the second for Brazil. Tidy first time finish after being sent through by Neymar. Who is getting kicked to fuck
Has just got his second. 3-0. Really well taken, cutting in from the left just like Henry used to do with regularity for Arsenal

Im torn between wanting Brazil and Jesus to win this and wanting Brazil to lose because they dive and complain way too much

I missed the whole match apart from the penalty shoot out - that was quite exciting though.
