Third loss for SA hockey team


The SA hockey team lost 5-4 to Pakistan in men's hockey at the Olympics on Sunday - their 3rd loss from four games in the tournament.

Pakistan scored twice in the last six minutes to steal the win.

In the woman's marathon, South Africa's Rene Kalmer finished down the field in 35th position, just falling short of her personal best over the classic distance.

She ran 2:30.51 -- 52 seconds slower than her career record.

Tanith Maxwell trailed home in 2:40.27 to finish 81st of 118 competitors.

Irvette van Blerk, running only her second marathon, dropped out of the race before the halfway mark.

The woman's marathon was won by Ethiopian Tiki Gelana in an Olympic record time of 2hr 23min 7sec.
