Today's Games: Friday 12 August

RIO DE JANEIRO (Rio 2016 Olympic Games) - Here are the three games to look forward to on Day 7 of the Women's Olympic Basketball Tournament at the Deodoro Youth Arena in Rio de Janeiro.

Serbia v China

The European champions Serbia are looking to this game as a must-win contest after losing their first three. The trouble is that the Chinese have been playing a fast-paced game, which the Serbs have struggled to cope with. Serbia's Sonja Petrovic recently said that China and Senegal were the teams they were looking to beat in order to keep their Quarter-Finals aspirations alive. China will be taking to the court looking to improve their mark to 2-2. The Serbs cannot afford another defeat.     

Canada v USA

Last month, the USA beat Canada in the build-up to the Olympics and enter the contest as favourites. The Canadians, however, have been showing tremendous competitiveness, and it shouldn't a surprise if they can give the Olympic champions some hard time.

Spain v Senegal

Although the African champions have won the hearts of fans attending their games at Youth Arena, they are yet to win a game and taking on medal-chasing Spain could be one of their biggest challenges in Rio. With the USA almost assured of finishing as Group B winners, the Spaniards are in contention for the Second-Place. Every wins matters.
