The Great Britain men's team must beat South Africa on Monday to reach the quarter-finals of the World Wheelchair Basketball Championships in Amsterdam.

GB beat the USA 48-42 in their opening match on Thursday and also defeated Sweden 63-43 on Friday.

But they lost 66-60 on Saturday to France on Saturday, and were beaten 66-46 by Australia on Sunday.

The team must now beat South Africa in their match on Monday if they are to qualify for the last eight.

Head coach Dave Titmuss remains confident his players will progress.

He said: "Our fate is still very much in our own hands, and it�s all to play for - this competition is a marathon not a sprint."
