Olympics start tomorrow... not really

Well, the opening ceremony is tomorrow, but the Olympics started yesterday with the Football competitions for Women (yesteday) and Men (today).

China has done ok with a good win over Sweden in Women's football and a last-minute draw with New Zealand in Men (thanks to CCTV I thought for a part of the match they were playing Australia). The big story is the American Women - one of the pre-tournament favorites - having been beaten 2-0 by Norway. Norway is obviously a strong team, but nonetheless a surprising result.
