Team GB faces a must win match vs the UAE after Senegal's shock 2-0 victory vs Uruguay , Suarez and co., earlier today. That threw this group wide open, so come join us from Wemberley to see if GB can put themselves in a good position to qualify for the quarters.

Let's hope Bellamy does better than his Liversox teammates did in the earlier match.
We're off from wemberley!
GB attacks from the off and a strong run from Bellamy leads to a mad scramble in the UAE box.
Great combo play down the left between Bellamy and Ramsey,but Ramsey crossed straight to the keeper.
A GB win would mean that they would need only a draw vs Uruguay in Cardiff later this week to progress. That result would also eliminate UAE from the tournament.
Great defending by Steven Caulker on UAE's first attack. He spent last season on loan to Swansea from Spurs.
Nice UAE passing and Neil Taylor tackles for a UAE corner. That could have been a penalty on a different day.Richards blocks a shot off the short corner.
Naughty foul on Ramsey in midfield after UAE had dominated possession with Spanish style passing.UAE struggle to clear off the free kick
GOAL !!! 1-0 GB AND NONE OTHER THAN GIGGSY WHO HEADS IN AT THE BACK POST OFF A GREAT CROSS FROM BELLAMY. HE STARTED THE MOVE AND HE FINISHED IT.
Cleverley played Bellamy down the left , so he could cross for Giggs.
Nice combo play by Giggs and Bellamy as Neil Taylor was put through down the left , but he failed to win the corner.
Poor pass by Sordell as Richards made a great run down the right.
Poor foul by UAE on Ramsey.The free kick from Giggs is headed away then thumped away
UAe is trying to play like Spain, but their defending is suspect and they are starting to get frustrated as illustrated by some of their recent challenges.
Just too long for Cleverley by Richards after a great possession by GB.
GB fall asleep on a rare UAE attack ,but luckily nobody was up to connect on a cross.
Great last ditch tackle by Thompkins. Kaleel shoots just over from long range . A warning for GB!
Ramsey wins another free kick that is headed on by Richards and a volley by Bellamy is deflected for a corner.
Richards heads well wide from the corner taken by Cleverley
Useless by Sordell as Bellamy laid it on a plate for him.
Better from Sordell as he forced a good save by the keeper with a long range effort then it was cleared for a corner.
Caulker heads over from the corner by Giggs, but the ref blew for a foul.
COME ON YOU NAVY BLUES!
The keeper saves comfortably at the near post from Bellamy after a great run by Giggs.
High and wide from Bellamy
Bellamy wins a corner after being put through by Neil Taylor.
Richards forces a spectacular save from the keeper with a great header, but he was called offside.
Great GB attack, but they took too long to shoot and UAE cleared.
nasty foul on Richards just outside the box, then Ramsey took a quick free kick that forced a great save off a shot from Cleverley
A mad scramble in the UAE box off the resulting corner and UAE break, but GB recovered to stop their attack
OH! I THOUGHT THAT WAS 2-0 GB AS BELLAMY WAS PUT THROUGH ON BREAK AND HE FOUND CLEVERLEY , WHOSE SHOT CAME OFF OF THE INSIDE OF BOTH POSTS.
One minute of stoppage time.
Halftime and 1-0 to GB, but it could and should have been so much more.
The second half is underway from Wemberley.
COME ON YOU NAVY BLUES!
Danny Sturridge is on for Marvin Sordell.
WELL DONE, PSYCHO!
The announcer said that Giggs became the oldest player to score a goal in the Olympics, breaking a record set by an Egyptian player in the 1924 Olympics vs Hungary. He was 37 years of age.
Craig Bellamy won the ball with a great tackle in midfield, played a one-two with Sturridge, but the cross went to the keeper.
Poor pass by Ramsey Intended for Sturridge, who would have been through on goal
Well wide by Khalil
The cross by Taylor was well overcooked after he was put through down the left.
Great kick save by the keeper off a shot from Sturridge, then UAE counter and Kaleel shoots inches wide.
Useless by Sturridge after great work by Ramsey and Cleverley
Great run by Bellamy down the left , but his cross was cleared after a short corner and cross by Giggs were cleared.
Sturridge has a shot comfortably saved by the keeper.
Another run down the left by Bellamy , but his cross is to the keeper.
BUGGER!!! 1-1 AS UAE SCORE WITH A GREAT FINISH AS TOP RAMAN PUT KALEEL THROUGH AND EASILY BEAT BUTLAND AT THE NEAR POST. POOR DEFENDING BY GB
Great combo work by Cleverley and Bellamy, but useless from Sturridge
Now Esmaeel is booked for too much back chat to the ref.
Caulker is called for a foul off a long free kick from Giggs
Another dangerous UAE attack on the break as GB block three shots.
Giggs must be tiring as he has twice been dispossessed.
An upset is on Honduras lead Spain 1-0 in the second half. The Spaniards lost 1-0 to Japan on Thursday and could be eliminated from the tournament.
Great save by Butland from Kaleel as the Uae start to dominate
I just checked. A loss would eliminate Spain
Similar effort to the equalizer.
Scott Sinclair is on for Giggs. I could see that as Giggs was starting to show signs of fatigue.
YESSSSSSSS!!!!
2-1 GB AS SCOTT SINCLAIR SCORES A MINUTE AFTER COMING ON THE PITCH.A SUPERB RUN DOWN THE RIGHT BY BELLAMY AS THE KEEPER FUMBLED HIS CROSS, UNDER PRESSURE FROM STURRIDGE AND SINCLAIR FINISHED EASILY AT THE FAR POST.
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
3-1 GB AND WHAT A SUPERB GOAL AS GB BROKE AS STURRIDGE SUPERBLY CHIPPED THE KEEPER ON THE BREAK. BELLAMY WAS GIFTED POSSESSION IN MIDFIELD AND FOUND STURRIDGE, WHO OUTRAN TWO DEFENDERS AND SUPERBLY CHIPPED THE KEEPER.
Spain still trail Honduras 1-0 as a loss would eliminate them from the tournament , but would clinch a pace in the quarters for Japan.
KEEP IT TIGHT GB!
Not far over from long range from Top Raman.
Surely Bellamy should be MOTM as he has a hat-trick of assists.
GB now leads the group on goals scored , ahead of Senegal.
Finally, Omar is booked after a series of fouls on Ramsey.
Bellamy gets a deserved standing ovation as he is replaced by Jack Cork. Imagine what reception he will get on Wednesday at the Millenium Stadium.
This result will eliminate UAE from the tournament
Well wide by Omar.
Three minutes of stoppage time.
Well wide by Joe Allen after great work by Ramsey and Sturridge
That's it as GB win 3-1 and top the group on goals scored as UAE are eliminated from the tournament.
Into stoppage time at SJP as Honduras lead Spain 1-0
Nearly 2-0 to Honduras as they countered down the right and De Gea misjudged a header that went out for a corner.Honduras wanted a penalty off the corner.
Anywhere will do as the Hondurans thump it in the air to the delight of the Geordie fans
Spain have a free kick and De Gea will go up for it
A Honduran is down and going off on a stretcher. Time wasting?
The free kick is headed well wide and that is it as Honduras win 1-0. Honduran players go potty displaying their flag and disgraceful behavior from the Spanish players as they storm the ref. Definitely not the Olympic spirit. The Honduran captain cuts in front of the Spanish players to shake hands with the officials.
So Spain are eliminated and it looks as if Honduras will face Brazil ni the quarters.
A great day of footer as a draw for GB vs Uruguay will insure a place in the quarters where it appears that they would face Mexico or South Korea.A great of Olympic footie.
CHEERS LADS!
Sorry MUR.. I couldn't make it to the computer
Way to keep the LOB fires burning
Cheers UWS. It was a great game and great performance by GB. I am sure you agree with me on more of the same Wednesday vs Uruguay at the Millenium. The U.S. women's team plays North Korea tomorrow at OT at 12:15. The U.S. need a draw to win the group.
