Japan vs Egypt
The day begins with Group D winners Japan taking on African survivors Egypt at Old Trafford. The Japanese have one thing in mind: to emulate the women’s soccer team by reaching the semi-finals of the tournament at the London 2012 Olympics.
Meanwhile, Egypt left it late to qualify above Belarus and New Zealand in Group C. For one of these two teams – Japan and Egypt – London 2012 ends today. Watch this quarter-final match on BBC Olympics in UK or on NBC Olympic Soccer in USA.

Brazil vs Honduras
After experiencing a scare against Egypt on the first day, Brazil cruised to comfortable victories against Belarus and New Zealand. Will it be all too easy for the South Americans against Honduras? The latter enter the quarter-final stage with determination thanks to their unbeaten record at London 2012.
Honduras sent Spain home with a 1-0 victory last Sunday so there should be no room for complacency within Brazil’s squad. On Friday, Brazil’s women soccer team exited London 2012 following a 2-0 loss against Japan. Will Brazilian football fans endure more pain today?
It is up to Neymar, Ganso, Hulk and company to keep lifting the flag of Brazil high at the London 2012 Olympics. See where to watch this fixture on our Brazil vs Honduras match page. Kick-off time is at 12:00pm EST (16:00 GMT).
Other matches
Mexico vs Senegal and Great Britain vs Korea Republic are two other quarter-finals to watch live this Saturday. Senegal are on a high but will Group B winners Mexico teach them a lesson?
Meanwhile, host nation Great Britain remain hopeful of striking gold. However, expect South Korea to push them all the way to the wall in the last match of the day.
