It's all kicking off in the wrestling arena. Uzbekistan’s Ikhtiyor Navruzov was awarded bronze in the -65kg freelance wrestling in controversial circumstances, after Mongolia’s Mandakhnaran Ganzorig was slapped with a late penalty.

But things took a turn for the worse when Ganzorig's support staff remonstrated. And then stripped. Yes, stripped. Half-naked, they refused to be moved from the ring as they protested the officials' decision. That's a strop on an absolute Olympian scale...Nonetheless, the decision remained the same. Worth a shot.

Samuel Lovett21 August 2016 18:37

Gaibnazarov is awarded the light welterweight gold medal match against Lorenzo Sotomayor Collazo on a split decision. Up next, the moment we've all been waiting for. Big Joe Joyce...

Samuel Lovett21 August 2016 19:28

Men's super-heavyweight: We've been building up to this all night. Will Joyce be able to overcome the Frenchman? Or will it be gold France? I'm not a betting man, but I reckon Joyce has got this one in the bag.

Men's basketball: The USA (who else?) win the last gold medal of the Rio Olympics, beating Serbia 96-66 in the men's basketball final. They've finished with 45 golds, 37 silvers and 38 bronzes to give an overall total of 120 medals.

From the magic of Murray to the brilliance of the Brownlees - Britain's greatest Olympic Games

Samuel Lovett21 August 2016 22:55

Throwback to London 2012 when One Direction ruined/capped off (delete according to preference) our very own closing ceremony at the Olympic stadium:

Samuel Lovett21 August 2016 23:52

As it's been for much of the Games, there are yet again a disappointing amount of empty seats at the Maracana. The stadium was packed to the rafters for Brazil's gold medal match against Germany yesterday evening (not surprising) but the lower tiers are looking particularly sparse tonight. It's been a constant source of embarrassment for the officials but it's something that they've lacked any real control over.

Samuel Lovett22 August 2016 00:28

Freezing?! In Rio?! I don't believe you Eilish...

Samuel Lovett22 August 2016 00:29

It looks like the athletes have finally all made their way into the stadium. Now the real fun can start. Someone get the caipirinhas ready.

Samuel Lovett22 August 2016 01:06

Oooooh, ahhhh, goes the crowd, as fireworks explode above the stadium to mark the next stage of the closing ceremony. The athletes have finally taken to their seats. They took their sweet time.
