Gold medal: Italy have won the men's team archery final
Archery: Pure drama at Lord's. Italy win the gold medal on the last arrow with a 10 from Frangilli. US are floored. Amazing stuff! #bbc2012

There's been a change in the host's seat. Rob Bagchi is taking over from Steve Busfield for a spell.

Beach volleyball might not be Team GB's strongest event...
Steve Grotowski and John Garcia-Thompson's Olympic bid began with a defeat as the British pair went down in straight sets against Canada at Horse Guards Parade: 21-19 21-13, writes Rob Bagchi. It was the first appearance by a British men's team in this sport at Olympic level.

Empty seats: Official response
Owen Gibson writes: "London 2012 organisers have promised a "full review" after thousands of empty seats were visible across various venues on the first day of competition. Despite most events having long since sold out, there were rows of empty seats visible at the swimming heats, the gymnastics, the volleyball and the dressage in Greenwich Park. The London 2012 organising committee said it appeared that most of the empty seats were not sold to members of the public but were in "accredited" areas meant for members of the "Olympic family"...More here.

Empty seats
Laura emails to say: "Hi. I'm at the fencing competition (excel arena). 'VIP' seats half-empty here aswell :("
What are these stayaway corporates up to?

GOALS!
GB 2-0 Cameroon - Jill Scott adds a second for the host nation as half-time approaches.
USA 1-0 Colombia - Megan Rapinoe gives the holders the lead
17:54 BST
Where would a Guardian minute-by-minute be without the input of the esteemed Gary Naylor. He emails:
"I'm still reeling from the tactical and televisual shambles that was the road race. I'm not sure what was worse: Team GB treating the race like a stage of the Tour de France and not a madcap Belgian Classic like the Tour of Flanders: or television coverage that seemed to be the result of handing it over to promising teenagers, which, admittedly, worked last night with the torch. My question is - how long does the feelgood factor from Danny Boyle's Dazzling Britain last? Until more medals are squandered? Until rightwing MPs and journalists stop frothing at the mouth in such delicious anger? Until me and the kids spend two hours trying to get into the Men's Table Tennis (3rd Qualifying Round) on Monday?"

Medal table: China top
I see some discussion below the line about he whereabouts of the medals table, well here it is. When I'm not here to help you out, you can find it at the top of the Olympics page. And at the moment China are top with two golds and a bronze. Sixteen nations have medals, but so far no GB or USA or Australia. Early days though...
17:39 BST
GOAL!
GB's Women have taken a 1-0 lead versus Cameroon through a goal from Casey Stoney. As previously mentioned, if GB win this game then Tuesday's GB vs Brazil match at Wembley will simply be to decide who tops the group. Although, of course, that could be pretty important given the relative strength of some other contenders.
17:33 BST
Olympic torch: Don't tell your parents...
So secret was the identity of the youngsters who lit the Olympic flame that they didn't even tell their parents. Indeed, one teenager, Jordan Duckitt reveals that his parents had even gone away on holiday without him. Read more of this impressive teenage self control here.
17:25 BST
USA vs Colombia
The reigning Olympic champion women's football team, USA, are in action against Colombia. You can follow that live here. Meanwhile, I have tickets to take my kids to see GB vs Brazil at Wembley on Tuesday (as does Rob Bagchi). If GB win today, that group game will be completely meaningless. That is annoying. Still, it's not the winning, it's the taking part.
17:17 BST
400m freestyle champion reinstated
South Korea's Park Tae-hwan, the reigning Olympic champion, has now been reinstated in the 400m freestyle final after winning an appeal against disqualification. Germany's Paul Biedermann, the world record holder for the event, missed out on the final after finishing 12th overall in 3:48.50.
17:10 BST
Good afternoon, morning, evening, middle of the night, wherever you may happen to be. For the rest of Day One of the actual London 2012 Games (or is it Day Four if you include all that stuff before the Opening Ceremony?) it will be myself and Rob Bagchi guiding you through the events...
17:02 BST
And that's me done for today. I'm handing over the baton to Steve Busfield, who'll guide you through an exciting opening evening.

The five o'clock news on the opening day...
Mark Cavendish suffered bitter disappointment in the road race, missing out on a medal as Alexander Vinokouroff of Kazakhstan took gold
The first gold medal of the Games was won by China's Yi Siling in the women's 10m air rifle.
South Korean shooter Jin Jong Oh's claimed victory in the men's 10m air pistol
Park Tae-hwan, pre-race favourite for the men's 400m freestyle, was disqualified for false starting.
Michael Phelps qualified for his first final of the Games, in the 400m individual medley, by just 0.07 seconds and will start tonight's final in lane eight.
An Albanian weightlifter was expelled from the Olympics after testing positive for stanozolol.
Two rowing records were broken, New Zealand's Eric Murray and Hamish Bond shattering the world record in the men's pair, and Britain's Helen Glover and Heather Stanning beating the Olympic record in the women's.
16:54 BST
Sarah Menezes of Brazil has won the women's 48kg judo. Ranked second in the competition, Menezes beat defending Olympic champion Alina Dumitru of Romania in a defensive final. She spent most of the time struggling - and failing - to sweep Dumitru to the floor with her feet, but eventually won the day with a throw at the death.
Meanwhile, back to matters of guns and buckshot. "The only time we ever get to see a shooting competition on the box is at the Olympics, but back in the 70s pistol shooting was a regular feature of Superstars," recalls a wistful Ian Burch. "Stan Bowles memorably fired a shot into the table when he picked up his pistol in his heat of the show, he also capsized his kayak did Stan. Thankfully footballers have become much more proficient with guns since then as England's left-back recently proved."
Any old excuse to post one of the great BBC themes (and link to this old Joy of Six on sporting tunes, which should probably, in all honesty, have seen me sectioned).
