It’s god to see those that run in the qualifiers also get a medal

Nothing to do with god surely?

 

[MillionMilesAway]

Nerves/pressure?

Could be.

I suspect he's got away with it because no-one can work out what he was trying to do!

He's very lucky. He looked across before he made the move. So he can't claim he didn't know that Hoogland was there.

 

[BringBackSwales]

That’s a battling bronze

Haven't seen a Spanish collapse this bad since the 17th century

The defender just making a huge mistake, especially as the ball was going nowhere near the French player that he rugby tackled down in the box.

Very odd, I agree. It just wasn't something that would win him the race as it would stop it immediately.

Carlin gets the bronze. That's 5 medals today.

Almost guaranteed one in the heptathlon and a chance in the women's 400m.

I'll imagine there'll be a Dutch protest going in now.
