Hege Riise has urged Team GB to forget their emotions if they want to clinch Olympic gold. Riise's squad start their campaign against Chile in Group E in Sapporo on Wednesday (kick-off 8.30am BST) - two days before the opening ceremony in Tokyo. Sky Sports News understands Steph Houghton will captain Team GB in their opening game, wearing the armband ahead of co-captains Kim Little and Sophie Ingle. "It will be an emotional rollercoaster and how we deal with that individually and as a team will be crucial," said Team GB's coach. Team GB qualified for just their second Olympics after England finished fourth at the 2019 World Cup.
