LEE MORTON’S fourth quarter brace rescued a point for Team GB as they came back to draw 2-2 with the Netherlands today.

It was goalless at half-time but the Netherlands soon took the lead through Floris Wortelboer and Thijs van Dam.

However, another late show from Team GB saw Morton strike twice in the final quarter to salvage a point, meaning they now sit third in Pool A.
