Rio 2016: Athletes warned to keep mouths closed when swimming in faeces-infested water

Stelberto Soares, a municipal engineer who has worked on Rio sanitation issues for decades, said that the government’s efforts to clean the waters were superficial at best.
“They can try to block big items like sofas and dead bodies, but these rivers are pure sludge,” he said, “so the bacteria and viruses are going to just pass through.”
“We just have to keep our mouths closed,” said 24-year-old Afrodite Zegers of the Dutch sailing team – one of the 10,000 athletes from 205 countries competing in Brazil.

Iran's volleyball team played a friendly with the hosts Brazil today as preparation for the Olympics in the upcoming week.

Result was 3-1 for Brazil.

[Bessos]

Google has now added the events for each country.
If you google ''Iran olympics'' or ''Iran rio'' you can see Iran's program.

My pleasure Narse jan. Regarding the links the best place to watch the games would be varzesh channel on the internet. Although I am not sure if they will cover our female matches.
