Brazil vs Egypt

[Liam]

I fancied that, but only kicks off shortly before the Team GB game, from what I can tell.

[Pesci]

Honduras/Morocco has turned into a great game! Honduras went 2-1 up from a penalty before Zakaria Labyad just scored a fantastic lob from about 20 yards out. Now I don't feel so guilty for spunking 40m on him in FM 2011.

We have tickets for the matches at Old Trafford today. My dad and brother seem to think we can manage to just not go to the Uruguay-Senegal match and get in for GB-UAE. Somehow, I think we're going to find that isn't the case.

[Nerf]

Anyone know what time the GB/Senegal match kicks off? And when do Uruguay have a televised game next? No interest at all in the Olympics but I want to check on Suarez and Bellamy, and possibly Allen now.

[Katsuya]

Also, tennis draws for the first round:

Murray vs Wawrinka

Federer vs Falla

Djokvic vs Fognini

Watson vs Soler Espinosa

Keothavong vs Wozniacki

Baltacha vs. Szavay

Murray has a tough as hell draw, looking at it. It could go Wawrinka-Nieminen-Gasquet-Berdych-Djokovic-Federer. Watson should win, I have no faith whatsoever in either Keothavong or Baltacha.

Anyone know what time the GB/Senegal match kicks off? And when do Uruguay have a televised game next? No interest at all in the Olympics but I want to check on Suarez and Bellamy, and possibly Allen now.

Well Uruguay play Senegal at 5 I think, then Team GB play at 8.

[Liam]

Been watching the Honduras game since the first post about it, has been full of incident. Good times.

Torch passes Television Centre in a bit - exciting!

London 2012: Wales' Joe Allen listed as English by Team GB

Olympic organisers are facing another embarrassing gaffe after describing Welsh midfielder Joe Allen as English in the official Team GB programme.

Allen, 22, is set to feature for Great Britain on Thursday in their opening match against Senegal at Old Trafford.

The mistake follows the humiliating episode at Hampden Park when the South Korea flag was shown next to North Korea's women footballers.

Games organisers Locog have been asked for a response to the latest blunder.

Allen, a fluent Welsh speaker from Pembrokeshire, is one of five Welshman selected in the men's football squad. But under the title 'Nationality' in the official programme, the Swansea City midfielder is listed as English.

Compatriots Ryan Giggs, Craig Bellamy, Aaron Ramsey and Neil Taylor have all correctly been identified as Welsh in the official programme.

Allen, who started for GB in their warm-up match against Brazil last week, is expected to make the starting side for their Group A opener in Manchester.

The Football Association of Wales, who had urged Welsh players not to play at the Olympics, has also been asked for a comment.

Before the first day of competing at London 2012 was over, organisers had already been forced to apologise after the flag mix-up when North Korea faced Colombia In Glasgow.

As the North Korean players were being introduced before the match, South Korean flags were mistakenly displayed in the video package.

The squad walked off and could only be persuaded to return when the teams were announced again with each player's face displayed next to the North Korean flag, delaying kick-off by about an hour.

In response to the mistake, London 2012 spokesman Andy Mitchell said: "A genuine mistake was made for which we apologise."

[Lineker]

Oh man, what is going on there! Heads should roll.

[Summers]

[Dingle]

Eh, shit happens. At least it isn't like that flag guy yesterday who clearly chose the wrong career.

I'll be trying to catch Spain's game and then drag the missus to go see the GB game today. Are Argentina in this? I'd watch them if they were.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Rumours abound of 83 year old Roger Bannister lighting the "cauldron" which would be brilliant and a perfect choice.

[Dingle]

I'd prefer to see him run a mile .

[IAceI]

Really looking forward to Spain v Japan. Spain, obviously a strong team and Japan are just as loveable as a non-Great Britain team could be for me!

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Oh, that'll be on TV here then.

[Asuka's Gonna Kill You]

Otso

De Gea once again getting shit on, despite it not being his fault

[Baddar]

Japan lead against Spain! De Gea to blame, as usual.

[therockbox]

[Blaze09]

Spain is imploding.

It's surreal.
