Great Britain are out of the men's Olympics water polo at the group stage, after a humbling 17-6 defeat at the hands of reigning champions Hungary.
GB, who are bottom of Group B with a game still to play, were outclassed by the nine-time gold medallists who hold the 2000, 2004 and 2008 titles.
Hungary were on the scoresheet within two minutes and never looked back.
Great Britain play their final match of the Games on Monday against Montenegro, who are currently third in the group.
The host nation's best period of the game came in the second quarter, which they only lost by a goal.
In Group B's other games, Serbia overcame the United States 11-6, while Montenegro ran out 12-8 winners over Romania .
Group A's matches on Sunday featured Croatia and Spain moving to top the table with wins over Australia and Greece respectively.
Italy also consigned Kazakhstan to their fourth successive defeat, 9-6 the scoreline.
