Captained by Ryan Giggs, the side also featured aces including Craig Bellamy, Aaron Ramsey and Daniel Sturridge.

However, Team GB ended up crashing out of the tournament in the quarters after losing on penalties to South Korea.

And Richards has revealed the sex-mad lifestyle of athletes inside the Olympic village may have played some part.

As a result, some decided to partake in all there was to offer, from the free food to photos with celebrities.

But it was a “massive room full of condoms” that really caught the attention of Richards and the athletes.
