Great Britain's women curlers edged a tight contest against China on day six of the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics.

Eve Muirhead's side were 6-3 down in the round robin contest but levelled at 7-7, taking it to an extra end at the Gangneung Ice Arena.

Muirhead then held her nerve with the final stone to make sure of an 8-7 success, a result which lifted them to second in the group.

Muirhead was pleased to put the earlier defeat to the United States behind her, saying: "It came down to a last stone this morning and we lost out - but that's the job of a skip, to nail those crucial shots.

"The girls played great and we showed a lot of guts and determination. Our heads could have gone down after the USA game but we stayed positive.

"If you'd said at the start of the week I'd have won two and lost one after three games then I would have taken that.

"It takes a bit of time to get used to the conditions and it's tricky out there. We've adapted quickly and it showed during the end result."
