Great Britain?s women moved to within a point of qualifying for the Olympic semi-finals with a hard-fought victory over Belgium at the Riverbank Arena. Getting the ball rolling: Ashleigh Ball put Team GB ahead at the end of a tight first half (Picture: Reuters) Goals from Ashleigh Ball, Laura Bartlett and Crista Cullen were enough despite a late rally by their opponents. GB only need a point against China on Saturday to be sure of a place in the last four and are still on course to top Pool A. Days after fracturing her jaw on the same pitch, captain Kate Walsh ? who has had a titanium plate inserted ? was named in the squad but remained on the bench throughout the warm-up and game. Coach Danny Kerry said: ?I have no doubt Kate will play again in this tournament, it is simply a question of when. I don?t yet know if she will play against China or the Netherlands.? Also in Pool A, South Korea beat Japan 1-0 and China lost 1-0 to defending Olympic champions the Netherlands, who will be Team GB?s final opponents in the group stage.
