It is match point in the America’s Cup. Ineos Britannia will need to beat Emirates Team New Zealand in every one of the five remaining races if they are to finally win the ‘auld mug’ for Great Britain.
After the fifth day of racing, they trail 6-2 in the best-of-13 series, which means that if the New Zealanders can win just one more race, with two more scheduled for Saturday, then the competition will be over.
