Developed over time first seen 2 hours ago
Great Britain's Romell Glave and Jeremiah Azu completed a men's 100m medal sweep at the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham, taking gold and silver respectively. The pair had discussed achieving exactly this outcome earlier in the year, making the result a fulfilment of a shared goal rather than a surprise success.
Glave finished first to claim the European title, with team-mate Azu following in second to secure the silver medal, giving Great Britain a dominant one-two finish in the sprint event. The achievement was covered by BBC Sport as part of its coverage of the championships being held on home soil in Birmingham.
