    Football shouldnt even be an Olympic sport... in every single sport apart from Tennis & Football being Olympic Champion is the top of their game. However Football its nowhere near top. This is why it shouldnt be an Olympic sport,

    Look at every other sport, who has argued against any decision, only one sport

    I turned the football off at 8.30 to watch the Athletics, just kept flicking back and watched the penalties. It shouldn't be there.

    TBF its a bit unfair, team GB are in pre season and and teams like SK are in the middle of the season apart from 2/3 players.

    Do you think its fair that Australia have to compete in these Olympics , when its their Winter? These are the Summer Olympics!

    Got to say this, its a disgrace that Premiership players like these have lost to South Korea, these are the same players that YOU hype up so much. At least the Women lost to a team ranked in the top 8 in the World.

    Why did they spoil it?
    Those players that played have been playing at a higher standard than the vast majority of the South Koreans, but you are saying that the GB players were at a disadvantage. How?

    These players were the best available under the criteria ALL THE TEAMS have to stick to.

    No they could not.

    No player that was picked to play in the Euros was allowed to play in the GB team at the Olympics.
