Surprises were few and far between during the women's team table tennis event at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Each of the top four seeds reached the semifinals, which were won by China and Germany, with China losing just a single game en route to the final.
Meanwhile, Japan and Singapore played for the bronze medal after coming up short in the semis. It represented a similar medal round to the 2012 London Games, when China defeated Japan for gold, and Singapore edged South Korea for bronze.
Let's check out the results from Tuesday's play, which will be updated following the conclusion of the gold-medal match.
