Customers said on Twitter that their Sky Go feed was failing during the women's sevens final between New Zealand and Australia. Sky customers have vented their frustration online after being unable to watch New Zealand women's sevens team's bid for gold at the Rio Olympics. One rugby fan posted "Can you keep us updated on the woman's [sic] sevens. Followers of Tony Veitch's Facebook page also expressed their disappointment at missing out on watching the game due to Sky Go being out of action. A keen New Zealand supporter said they would "love to watch in Skygo [sic] the official station of the Olympics but guess what, can't get it due to overloading or maintenance issues".
