Spain vs Argentina LIVE: Tokyo 2020 result, final score and reaction from Olympics fixture

10’ mins

Yellow card for captain Perez who goes into the book for a late challenge on Zubimendi. Spain with most of the early possession but no real chances as yet - Dani Olmo sends the free-kick on target, but Ledesma claws it away low at the near post.

Argentina really can’t afford to fall behind, you’d imagine, given they must win to progress and have only scored that one goal so far.

Oh no! Joe Fraser swings off the pommel horse mid-attempt - he’s allowed to continue his routine after a brief pause, finishing with a handstand and dismount. But a score of 13.300 is a tough break and almost certainly rules him out of medal contention given how high some of the leaders are scoring through two rotations.

It’s better news for James Hall, who sets a score of 13.966 on the rings.

Hashimoto remains in the overall lead after he becomes the first gymnast to break the 15-mark so far today with a huge score of 15.166 on the pommel horse. Remarkable scoring so far from the 19-year-old Hashimoto.

The Japanese star is joined for company by the Chinese pair of Sun Wei and Ruoteng Xiao in the top three.

Kick-off!

We are underway at Saitama, a must-win game for Argentina, while Spain need to finish the job too.

Both nations have scored just once in their two matches so far so there’s lots of expectation on a big improvement in the final third for each.

Gaich, Mac Allister and Urzi on one side; Olmo, Oyarzabal and Asensio on the other. Who will prevail?

Charlotte Fry and Everdale set a score of 80.614 but that’s only good enough for eighth position. Britain’s Carl Hester remains third for now.

The USA’s Sabine Schut-Kery leads the way with a score of 84.300.

James Hall gets his first rotation underway on the pommel horse, and that’s a 13.433 for the Briton on what is considering to be his least favourite apparatus.

Back on the floor, Japan’s Daiki Hashimoto sets the highest score of the day with a 14.833 - and is the current leader overall. Joe Fraser’s score was actually the lowest of the opening rotation on the floor but there’s plenty of time to make up any lost ground.

Lots of emphasis on Adolfo Gaich to come good for Argentina today - the 22-year-old is seen as a huge talent for the future and he has nine goals in 17 games at this level already...but none at the Olympics when his team have needed them most. Defender Facundo Medina is the only player to have scored for the Albiceleste’s U23s so far (or U24s as they are this year) and they badly need the front line to fire this afternoon.

Charlotte Dujardin is aiming to become the most decorated female British Olympian outright in the individual dressage. In winning gold as part of the team competition yesterday, she equalled Katherine Grainger and Kathleen McKane Godfree on five medals, although Dujardin has the most gold medals with three.

She is also aiming to become win gold medals in three different Olympic Games, following her success at London 2012 and Rio 2016. Her team-mate Charlotte Fry is next up.

The team news is in for this afternoon’s big match in the men’s football, as Spain face Argentina - the Europeans need a point to guarantee passage to the knockouts, while the South Americans need nothing less than a win.

Spain XI: Simon, O Gil, Garcia, P Torres, Cucurella, Zubimendi, Pedri, Merino, Olmo, Asensio, Oyarzabal

Argentina XI: Ledesma; Herrera, N Perez, Medina, Bravo; Barco, Vera, Belmonte, Mac Allister; Urzi, Gaich

Joe Fraser lands a sensational double twisting double back to finish his floor routine - and that’s an opening score of 14.100 for the 22-year-old. That’s an increase on his score in qualifying.

Fraser has the pommel horse to come next, followed by rings, vault and parallel bars, before finishing on the horizontal bar.

Coming up this late morning/early afternoon, there is plenty of British medal interest between the men’s individual all-around gymnastics final and the equestrian dressage individual final.

Joe Fraser and James Hall are about to begin their rotations, with Fraser starting out on the floor and Hall on the pommel horse.

In the dressage, Carl Hester is currently in bronze medal position after setting a score of 81.818 on En Vogue, but he looks unlikely to remain there for long.

Charlotte Dujardin on Gio and Charlotte Fry on Everdale have their performances to come.
