Pictures have emerged showing the cultural differences among some of the nations taking part in the Rio Olympics after the Egyptian women's beach volleyball team took to the sandy arena wearing long sleeves, leggings and Hijab which was a deep contrast to the outfit worn by the German team who stuck to the sport's traditional two-piece outfit for the clash  on Sunday  night. Although the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) used to have standards regulating the size of uniforms, those were loosened heading into the London 2012 Olympics to allow full sleeves and leggings. There are now 169 different countries involved in the Continental Cup qualifying process for the 2016 Olympic, compared to 143 for London after rules on clothing were relaxed and FIVB say the regulations were loosened to open up the sport culturally.

Chaos reigned supreme at the Rio Olympics yesterday after the Games security chief Felipe Seixas was attacked by four knife-men as he left the games centre some hours after the Mayor of Rio de Janeiro boasted that Rio was the 'safest city in the world'. Fans were forced to retreat from match venues after collapsing under the hot sun while Portugal’s Education Minister was attacked and robbed at knife-point as he headed to his hotel after watching cycling. There was more embarrassment for organizers of the tournament as two-thirds of the seats for the Brazilian team’s opening beach volleyball game were empty, with the few who were present pictured fiddling with their mobile phones during the games. Organizers had expected a sell-out at the 12,000-capacity stadium — but just 4,400 spectators turned up for Brazil’s opening beach volleyball match against Russia on the Copacabana.  More photos...
