The opening ceremony had a warmth, passion and hope;

Another Olympic highlight captured on social media. Lee Eun-ju of south Korea and Hong Un-jong of North Korea provided a moment of unity as the the two gymnasts - from counties technically still at war with each other - ;posed for a smiling selfie.
It wasn't always so friendly in the swimming pool. Twitter went into meltdown after swimming legend Michael Phelps was pictured giving rival Chad le Clos a "death stare". He was caught putting his game face on while in the warm- up area of the Olympic pool, prompting # Phelpsface to trend on Twitter.
It wasn't long before Phelps, the most decorated Olympian of all time, broke into a smile, beating le Clos of South Africa in the men's 200m butterfly final. Some suggested le Clos should have been looking where he was swimming rather than watching his rival.
Chinese diver He Zi had just collected her silver medal in the 3m women's springboard when fellow diver Qin Kai entered the podium presentation. He duly got down on one knee, produced an engagement ring and proposed. She said yes.
Never far from the spotlight, Jamaica sprinter Usain Bolt managed to find time to smile for the cameras while easing to a 100m semi- final victory. It prompted a flurry of internet memes. He later won the final in a time of 9.81 seconds - his third 100m crown in three Olympics Games.
Brazil exorcised the demons of their 7-1 defeat by Germany in the World Cup semi- final in Belo Horizonte in 2014 by beating them in a penalty shoot-out to win the Olympic gold medal. The match had finished 1-1 after extra-time and star striker Neymar, who missed the World Cup humiliation because of injury, scored during normal time before converting the decisive penalty and bursting into floods of tears.
After the competition, came the party as Rio produced a carnival-style closing ceremony full of music, dancing and colour.
