Bellamy not thinking of medal

Craig Bellamy: Refusing to get carried away by Team GB's success

Craig Bellamy is refusing to get carried away and start dreaming of winning an Olympic medal.

Team GB face South Korea in the quarter-finals on Saturday after going through the group stages unbeaten.

Bellamy, who has been one of the stand-out performers for Stuart Pearce's side, is keeping his feet on his ground after experiencing so many disappointments on the international front with Wales.

Asked if it Team GB could claim Olympic glory, Bellamy said: "That's you English. That is what you lot do - I'm Welsh!

"Being Welsh has taught me that, with two minutes to go, anything can happen. I've come into this with a wider look. Now it is just pure and simple - let's have a go and enjoy it."
