Winter Olympics

Sochi 2014

Day 8, Part 2

Duration: 4 hours

First broadcast: on BBC Two HDLatest broadcast: on BBC Two England

Jonathan Edwards presents live coverage from another action-packed day in Sochi. In men's ice hockey, there is live coverage of the eagerly awaited clash between the USA and Russia. The meeting will inevitably revive memories of the Miracle on Ice, when an inexperienced American side stunned the Soviet Union in one of the greatest sporting shocks in history. Commentary comes from Seth Bennett and Brent Pope.

The men's skeleton enters its second and final day. Britain will be hoping that one of their sliders will be in a position to challenge for a medal, but it will be a tough ask against the likes of world champion Alexander Tretiakov of Russia and Latvia's Martins Dukurs, who won silver at Vancouver 2010, and who has dominated the sport since then.

The curling competition continues and, after facing South Korea in the morning, Eve Muirhead will now be attempting to propel Great Britain to victory against Switzerland.

And in speed skating, American Shani Davis will be hoping to land gold in the men's 1,500m, having claimed silver over this distance at the past two Winter Olympics.
