    Netball - Scotland 43-45 Jamaica

    Scotland centre Hannah Leighton, speaking to TNT Sports: "A little bit gutted because we pushed them so close but so proud we pushed them that far.

    "We were all absolutely going for it because we knew we were good enough to push them all the way.

    "We went for everything, tried to challenge but couldn't quite get over the line.

    "Today was a really good show of what we can do defensively and how clinical we can be in attack. So we have to take that into tomorrow against Uganda."

    Scotland's Wright out of contentionpublished at 15:27 BST 29 July

    Men's 94kg final

    Scotland's Tom Wright thought he had moved into the lead in the men's 94kg weightlifting final when attempting 166kg in the clean and jerk - he seemed to intimate he had been given the signal to set the bar down.

    That was overruled and he also failed with his second attempt.

    The third time did not prove to be a charm and Wright exits the competition, much to the disappointment of the raucous home crowd.

    Netball - Scotland 43-45 Jamaica

    Met with boos from the crowd, Jamaica play the possession game to run down the clock to see the win over the line.

    That was a nervy final 15 minutes for Scotland who were so close to making history.

    However, it's a performance to be proud of and a treat for the spectators at the Hydro who I'm sure weren't expecting that scoreline at the start of the day.

    Netball - Scotland 43-45 Jamaica

    What a game!

    Jamaica score in the last second to clinch the most unconvincing of wins.

    Scotland pushed them all the way and came so close to a huge upset. They can be so proud of that performance but it is the Sunshine Girls who take the win.

    Time is running out for Scotland now but a block from Emily Nicholl gets them back on the attack.

    Niamh McCall finds Emma Barrie nicely again and they are back to within two!

    Make that a one point game. Can they do it?

    Excellent catch and finish from Jamaica's Azara Wilmot to push the lead back out to two points.

    Wilmot scores again Scotland find themselves three down with less than four minutes remaining.

    Are there hopes of an upset starting to fade?

    Netball - Scotland 37-39 Jamaica

    Scotland had the chance to go up by two but Emma Barrie wasn't able to convert and Jamaica have come back strongly.

    They've re-established a two-point lead and, at the other end, suddenly the shots just aren't dropping for the hosts.

    We've got eight and a bit minutes left.

  13. A huge quarter for the Thistlespublished at 15:11 BST 29 July

    This is one of the biggest 15 minutes to go for Scottish netball. Scotland, ranked 10th in the world, could create a huge piece of history here in Glasgow by beating the world number four side.

    It would easily be the biggest upset of the tournament so far. The Hydro is LOUD.

    Netball - Scotland 37-36 Jamaica

    Another huge roar from the crowd at the Hydro as Niamh McCall puts Scotland ahead for the first time in the game.

    Jamaica swiftly level but Scotland go forward again and McCall restores the lead.

    Just the 12:48 to go...

    Wowee! Just got to the netball. Scotland level with Jamaica with one quarter remaining. This would the biggest win in Thistles history if they beat the Jamaicans!

    Scotland are 15 minutes away from a famous win.

    Whether they get it or not, so much credit has to go to centre Hannah Leighton - she has been absolutely everywhere for the Thistles.

    Scotland level at end of third quarterpublished at 15:03 BST 29 July

    Netball - Scotland 35-35 Jamaica

    Jamaica would have known that Scotland wouldn't make it easy for them but it's doubtful they would have expected to find themselves in such a scrap this deep into the game.

    Niamh McCall's 15th goal gets Scotland back to within two and when Emma Barrie knocks down her 18th, it's a one-point game!

    Barrie then has another shot to level, can't convert that - but this time she does!

    All square with one quarter to go! We could have a huge shock here. If nothing else Scotland are giving the world number four side a big scare.

    Netball - Scotland 28-30 Jamaica

    Jamaica have started to lock in defensively but a brilliant leaping intercept from Hannah Leighton - who has been excellent for Scotland - gets the Thistles on the attack again.

    They have got the deficit back down to two with a little under six minutes left in the third quarter.

    I spent the morning at the athletics stadium which was a touch drier than last night but not entirely free of rain.

    Northern Ireland’s Kate O’Connor, who wobbled last night in the shot put before impressing in the 200m, really stamped her authority on the competition.

    She produced a lifetime best outdoors in the long jump and then the best javelin throw ever in a hepthlon at the Commonwealth Games.

    Her advantage is already probably too big for England’s Jade O’Dowda.

    3x3 wheelchair basketball - FT: England 18-10 Canada

    England have booked their place in the women's 3x3 wheelchair basketball gold medal match in convincing style with an 18-10 victory over Canada.

    It was never in doubt after racing into a 6-1 lead after two minutes.

    Jade Atkin is the star of the show with nine points. Lucy Robinson scored four, while Charlotte Moore netted three times and Joy Haizelden twice.

    That is some effort against the 2025 world champions, who have to settle for a bronze play-off.

    England will face the winner of Scotland v Australia in the final at 19:00 BST.
