Radio Times: Review by:; James Gill

The British five-a-side team play their first game at the Riverbank Arena in the Olympic Park this afternoon, a must-win encounter against medal rivals Spain. Four players with visual impairments make up the outfield, wearing blindfolds to ensure fairness. The goalkeeper is allowed to be sighted, and teams also use a guide behind the opposition’s goal to shout instructions. The ball contains metal bearings so players can hear it.

Team GB veteran and captain David Clarke is the one to watch, having scored an outstanding 126 goals in 139 international appearances. With five silvers to his name from world and European championships, the 41-year-old is desperate to taste gold in front of a home crowd.
