FINLAND-ROC SET TO DO BATTLE
The Men's Ice Hockey final is about to get underway. Russia are the reigning champions and they face Finland who have twice won silver, in 1988 and 2006. Can the Finns go one better today?

KRIPPS AND CO HOLD ON FOR BRONZE
As expected Latvia, Germany's third best, helmed by Christoph Hafer, and Canada's crew have beaten Brad Hall's team's time, so the only question remaining really is can Johannes Lochner haul in Francesco Friedrich's 0.20 seconds advantage.
After an initial lead, Kripps' advantage over Hafer's team was down to 0.01, but managed to grab bronze by 0.08.

FOUR-SOME STUFF!
Gold looks a certainty now after Eve Muirhead's final stone of End 7 left all 4 of the GB stones in the house with Japan nowhere to be seen. An 8-2 lead is surely unassailable. Surely!
