Togo 1 South Africa 0

Togo with a population of just under 6 million people, that's about the same as the FNB stadium on Chiefs vs. Pirates derby day, won it's first ever Olympic medal this morning.
The 27 year old Benjamin Boukpeti won the K1 Kayak Single bronze medal with a shock performance - throwing up more of that Olympic spirit I'm always going on about. So now great sporting nations like Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan (yes that is a serious country) and Togo lead South Africa in the medals table. which actually isn't that difficult considering we're sitting on a big fat toilet seat!

I'm claiming the whole Southern African angle from now on, Kirsty Coventry won us (liberal use of the word there) our second silver medal in the women's 100m backstroke. Whom I kidding a country with an estimated inflation rate 0f more than 9 million percent can produce an Olympic medals and we can't.

Come on boys and girls raise your game! Rowing semi's on Thursday come on Di Clemente and Keeling.
