Day 15 BBC One: 00.00-04.00, ft Mo Farah in the 5,000m Olympics

Welcome to us on BBC One, you join us for the full or final, Brazil

versus Germany. If you're watching on BBC Two, switch to BBC One now.

Some important saves, during the 19 -- 90 minutes rather than extra

time. Might he be the one to clinch the gold medal for his country.

Germany won the toss, and opted to take the penalties first. Always

seen as a psychological advantage. The referee telling both goalkeepers

they need to remain on their lines. Weverton of Apple to go, called up

as -- Atletico. He was called up as a late replacement, was not expected

to be the goalkeeper. Part of the Germany squad that the Brazil 7-1,

he takes the first one and tucked it into the corner of the net. First

blood to Germany. Weverton goes the right way, Ginter delighted. Good

start to Germany. It will take some composure and some nerve to tap

penalty away when you know that 99% of the crowd do not want you to do

that. One of the senior members of the side. Renato Agusto, the current

Brazilian international with the senior side, one of the 30 vague

players permitted. Has the responsibility of levelling up.

Which he does! So please for him, because he has been the outstanding

player for Brazil throughout the tournament. He certainly has. He has

had an excellent match. Horn no chance. He has had an excellent

game, Renato Augusto. It is fitting that he has scored this penalty. Now

there are boos for the Arsenal player, Serge Gnabry. Weverton with

all the antics. It is underneath his body, Weverton got plenty of it.

There were several thousand who thought he had saved it. A poor

penalty from Serge Gnabry. He scored it, but did not strike it well, and

Weverton knew he should have said that. Got both hands behind the ball

and he creeps under it. Marquinhos, one of the most expensive defenders

in the world. Stands up to try and bring Brazil level. And he does it

with aplomb! 2-2 on penalties, unbridled joy and relief among the

Brazilian supporters. Superb calm and composed, Marquinhos. Just wait

for the goalkeeper to dive to his right, a superb penalty. Julian

Brandt. He looks composed. That is a brilliant penalty.

Absolutely faultless. The temperament of these young players

cannot be faulted. You mentioned during the last healthy, Weverton,

his antics just delaying the penalty being taken by putting his tower

behind the goal, but Brandt was composed, he was cool, he waited for

Weverton to dive and an unstoppable penalty, tremendous from Brandt.

Alcantra. He has the nerve. 79,000, maybe a few hundred thousand -- may

be a few hundred German supporters. Another one that sends the

goalkeeper the wrong way. Excellent penalty. The big question I'm sure,

is whether Neymar has decided to take a penalty. Niklas Suele comes

into the corner of the net as if it was just a game against his family

in the backyard. The ball is almost past Weverton before he can move. A

superb penalty in the second half stop Niklas Suele, no chance for

Weverton without one. If they are playing -- if they are praying for

one of the German players to miss, their prayers are falling on deaf

ears. Luan. A little hesitation, but it makes the difference. He pops

into the corner. He has scored three goals in the tournament proper, he

is now scored in the penalty shootout, and we're all square at

4-4. He has had a super tournament, Luan. Extremely talented player.

Sending the keeper the wrong way, cool and composed. Tremendous. One

way or the other, Neymar's penalty is going to be significant.

He has scored six times in the tournament, and his penalty saved!

And is all set for Neymar. The darling of Brazil, the player who

went off in tears in the quarterfinal, because he could not

take part in the semi-final, Neymar, the stage is set, the captain,

surely it could be his moment. He looks like it is all set to him,

doesn't it. It is actually a better penalty then Gnabri's earlier. You

have to credit Weverton there. Strong hands from the goalkeeper.

Now he is also for the main man Neymar. You could not write it. Can

Neymar provide the gold medal for your country. Redemption awaits for

the side who could not win their own feet World Cup two years ago.

Neymar... He scores! 200 million Brazilians screen with delight! The

Golden bowl to make golden ball -- the golden ball has divided the

moment his country craved. Knocking out Germany, in their own Olympic

Games, the gold medal they wanted more than any other, and Neymar, the

hero, the darling, the one, chosen your most felt to get the winning

goal. -- you almost felt. He tucks the penalty that matters into the

corner of the night, Germany played their part, it is Neymar, you could

not have written it, because if you had no one would have believed you.

Five penalties scored by Brazil and they have one the gold-medal match.

Neymar in bits. If you cast your mind back two years, he was in tears

as he went off with a broken vertebrae in his lower back in the

quarterfinal, he knew he could not make the semi-final, he just had to

watch from the stand as his country got humiliated by Germany. But he

waited his moment, he saw the opportunity, two years on, to

captain his country and take them, he hoped, to a gold medal. And the

fairy tale has come true. There is dejection among the German players,

at contrast that to the feelings you are watching. The emotions were raw

two years ago for all the wrong reasons, they are now raw for all

the right reasons. Goodness me. It is just the worst way to lose, but I

tell you, it is the best way to win, and Neymar tucks away the penalty

that perhaps he himself was dreaming of as he watched in tears, as his

team went out in the semi-final. Timo Horn, he made some great saves

during the match, but he could not stop Neymar. He could not stop any

of the penalties, and you just have to look around the stands, and look

around this famous iconic stadium to realise that two years of hurt have

finally come to an end. What an extraordinary and two are quite

unbelievable football match. Brazil win the gold medal on penalties,

Neymar with a winning strike. -- what an extraordinary end to a quite

unbelievable foot or match. -- football match. We can debate the

importance of football in the Olympic Games, but in this country

they wanted football Golds for their men and it was heartbreak for the

women, going out on penalties in the semifinals to Sweden and then losing

their bronze medal match. But that man there, Neymar, has wiped away

that sadness, and the Maracana is bouncing.

And it is not just the Maracana that is bouncing, there is a six lane

carriageway that runs alongside the beach here in Copacabana, and as

soon as that ball hit the back of the net from Neymar, they ran out of

the bars and restaurants and started celebrating on the road. And for

those of us who are in Rio de Janeiro tonight, I don't think we

will be getting much sleep. And the Germans, it is a silver

medal and a defeat on penalties, and maybe for Brazil as well, not only

is it an Olympic gold, the wonder they wanted, it also softens the

blow and the pain of that semi-final defeat in the World Cup two years

ago, when it was Germany seven, Brazil one.

So Neymar and his team will be getting their gold medals, shortly,

and it will be an emotional, emotional ceremony in the Maracana.

They have their gold later on but they will want this man to deliver

another miracle. So they are enjoying themselves on

the Copacabana behind me, and Britain enjoyed itself on the

Copacabana just a couple of days ago for the men's triathlon, when there

was a gold and a Silva. And earlier today we had the women's triathlon.

There were three medal hopes for women in Vicky Holland and Non

Stanford and Helen Jenkins. This is how it all panned out. Vicky

Holland, Helen Jenkins and Non Stanford are in the field for Great

Britain. As they get under way, running down the sand of the

Copacabana, they have two battled through these waves coming in. They

are making the turn towards home now. The Spanish contender leads.

She high steps her way out of the Atlantic. Holland out of the water

and away. All three British triathletes are in that top group,

and so is Gwen Jorgensen. With Gwen Jorgensen and that sort of shape

early on, she is going to be tough to beat. So Jenkins has work to do

if she is to get towards the front pack. Stanford, head down, working

hard. Nicola Spirig is certainly looking relaxed at the front.

Clearly done some damage, the American, her race is over. Non

Stanford and Vicky Holland are in the hunt for medals. They are in

this front pack. Gwen Jorgensen is absolutely relaxed. On the last lap

of eight. Good transition for Gwen Jorgensen. Gwen Jorgensen is in a

bit of a battle here with the defending champion, Nicola Spirig of

Switzerland. It is all over for the oldest triathletes in the field,

Murua. The gold medal is likely to go to one of these two, as Holland

and Stanford battle it out for bronze. And a little shuffle

sideways from Nicola Spirig. Ignored by a Gwen Jorgensen, there is a bit

of cat and mouse here. Somebody wants to have a go, and Gwen

Jorgensen just looked over her shoulder there. What is going on?

Nicola Spirig almost moved away from her. What a peculiar sort of game of

cat and mouse that was. Now there is a row going on between the two of

them. A single lap to come. The battle of the best friends. There is

a British medal on the line. This time Gwen Jorgensen's break could be

decisive. Right now Gwen Jorgensen is on her way to a richly deserved

Olympic medal. Gwen Jorgensen is the Olympic triathlon champion. Nicola

Spirig will become the first female triathlete ever to win two Olympic

medals. Meanwhile, the battle continues between Stanford and

Holland for bronze, and it is Vicky Holland. Vicky Holland has moved

clear, the bronze to Vicky Holland of Great Britain. What a performance

in the women's triathlon. I am delighted to say that Vicky and Non

are in the studio with me. Is this a little weird? It is never weird. We

went into it as friends and housemates and that is how it ended.

We will get onto that relationship in a moment. But at what stage in

the race did it come into both of your head is that, hang on a minute,

we are racing each other for one medal? I think it was around five

kilometres into the run, when we had can clear the Chilean kind of us,

and I thought this would come down to the two of us and there was one

medal -- we had broken clear. If it comes down to run it is fair game,

each girl to herself and that is how it panned out. I was a bit later, I

wasn't quite as confident that we had got rid of Barber. She was

really strong on the bike so I thought she might have been feeling

really good today, and Vicky hadn't been so well and I wasn't feeling

great out there either -- got rid of Barbara. It was only with 400m to go

when I was thinking it was definitely just the two of us now.

It dawned on me a lot later. In the build-up to this you had both

discussed that this was something that might happen. I guess we had

been interviewed about it a few times and it was not something we

had had a set down discussion about but people have asked us in

interviews, what happens if this happens on the run? Is it fair game

and how do you approach races as a team? We always said we approach

races as a team and that is the case today but on the run it as a

different case. New duke it out at the front of the race and it is who

gets there first. Where did the teamwork come into play? Did it come

into play in the water, on the bike? Maybe the build-up, I would say,

more than anything. The way we approached it was as a team. On the

pontoon which is to be near each other and we had looked at the waves

and wind forecast together so we have a team plan as to what we might

do especially with regards to Gwen Jorgensen, who was always going to

be the main threat today. And we sort of had a plan as to how we

might try and lose her earlier on in the race. But to her credit she was

too good today. When the Browns sisters were sitting here, they

spoke about how much constantly training together helps them --

round others. The competition between the two of them, which also

comes from being brothers. With few living together and being such good

friends, do you have overtly identical relationship? I think

their relationship is quite different. They are far more

competitive with everything. Whereas we are very good at when we get home

we sort of forget about training, forget what has happened in the

session that has just happened and settle into normal life. I guess

there is that element that we train together and support each other but

I think our relationship is far more supportive rather than competitive.

And that is just the way we work. What were the two of you thinking

when the two leaders started arguing with each other? Could you see that

they were doing this? We couldn't see exactly what was going on but I

could see that there was deftly some talking going on. They were looking

at each other and they also visibly slowed down as well as snaking

across the road. I remember thinking, if they are going to keep

doing that they will let us back into the race. Obviously they had to

make a move at some point and stop whatever they were doing. How brutal

and argumentative is women's triathlon? The open water swim teams

are brutal, men and women swimming over each other and pulling each

other's ankles. In general, how physical as the competition? The

swimming can be very physical, and that is the nature of what you're

doing. There are 70 girls at times swimming towards one point. There is

going to be contact and whether it is intentional or not it can pretty

brutal. I have a lot of make up on right now, but I have a bit of a

black eye from being hit in the swim. From today? Yes, from today.

And that happens, and you just have to sort of shoulder it and get on

with it and don't take it personally, I think. But in the bike

pack I don't think it is as aggressive as the boys, I think the

boys are a lot more vocal. Like you saw in the run there are sometimes

at new words exchanged at I think generally we are not quite as

aggressive as the guys, but everyone is out there to win. And finally,

Vicky, if me and appraisal of the state of triathlon at the moment.

They see when I go to swimming and cycling events, I see more and more

T-shirts of people who belong to triathlon clubs. Is that your

experience as well? Absolutely, triathlon in some ways has become

the new marathon. People like to have a personal challenge in their

life no matter what it is, the normal walk of life. Marathons have

been around for a while the triathlons are becoming more of the

thing to do, whether it is Sprint or Olympic distance, or an ironman

track, and we have two thank London 2012 for that as well, the female

race is as close as it has ever been, with Alistair and Johnny doing

what they do, it has raised the profile of the sport and it is

amazing to see so many people who support us and follow us. Can I just

say congratulations to you both, and thank you for coming in. It is a

real testament to your friendship that you are both here together.

There aren't many that would coming together in those circumstances. So

thank you. Thank you. And the bronze medal there, added with the two

goals from Nicola Adams and Liam Heath, meaning that as things stand

Great Britain are still in second place on the medals table, with 26

gold, 22 silver and 15 bronze, so still managing to hold off China. If

we look at the medal predictor and the comparisons with this Olympics

compared to the previous two, you will be able to see that the Rio

games still puts Britain ahead of London and Beijing, as things stand.

With more medals available, both tonight and tomorrow, there is still

a chance that these games, as far as medals, will be more successful.

Amazing, and earlier you mentioned the crowd over your right shoulder,

is that because you are eyeing off that are? There will be some party

there tonight -- that bar. We will be very professional. Always the

professional, Mark Chapman. Thank you very much indeed. A very good

evening to you. Lots of live sport to enjoy across the Olympic Games

this evening. These are tonight 's main headlines. Boxer Nicola Adams

claimed back-to-back Olympic gold medals to continue the Team GB gold

rush in Rio. Liam Heath also climbed the top step of the podium in the K1

200m. As we saw a short time ago, triathlon bronze for Vicky Holland,

edging out her compatriot Non Stanford for the sprint finish.

Sadly no metal celebration for Tom Daley, he failed to qualify for the

individual ten metre platform final. So in Tom Daley's absence, it was

the Chinese contender who claimed the gold medal. A few moments ago,

this happened. Look at that, Neymar. Phil beating Germany 5-4 on

penalties -- Brazil. And South Korea's contender became only the

second female Olympic golf gold-medallist, with a dominant five

stroke victory. British Charley Hull finished tied for seventh. What

today we have had. It is the final night of the track and field, so

let's join Gabby Logan. Last night we watched Usain Bolt get that

triple triple, so let's find out if Mo can get the double-double. A

story of human movement. This looks easy. It has been anything but.

1983, the start. Twin boys are born in Mogadishu, Somalia. Eight years

later one twin moves to London. He loves football. Running. Running

wins. There are setbacks. Successors. Destroying them in the

home straight, double European champion! He must change, change

routine, change coach, change everything. He must move to move

faster. Is he ready now? Is this the time? Is this the place? He is

kicking again! Mo Farah is going for it! It is gold! This is world

domination for Mo. This is Mo town. It becomes the motion picture of the

age, to be repeated and appreciated time after time. Our monumental Mo.

Mo Farah is the world champion again! Five world titles, to be

sensational. What comes next in this story of human movement? Already

among the greats, can he now pull clear? Go, Mo.

Good evening and welcome to the final session of the athletic at

this stadium, the marathon tomorrow morning which means we cannot say

the athletics is completely finish this evening, at the track will

close the business in a few hours time. Will a close with Mo Farah

taking away his fourth Olympic medal? We shall see in just about an

hour 's time. Paula, Denise and Michael alongside me as usual, we

are all very excited and the four x 400 metre, and the women's 800

metre, the men's 1500 metre, and we have the javelin and high jump. But

we should really put in context here just how difficult this is going to

be, and what achievement it is, because we have to go back a long

time for someone else to have achieved what Mo Farah is hoping to

do. It is the enormity of what he is trying to achieve. In fairness, the

last time it involved heats, the fact that Mo Farah did the double in

2012, he did the 10,000 metres in Beijing, then he came back from a

disappointing year for him, in 2015, and did the double in Beijing. To

come here and to have stayed so healthy and strong and unbeatable

over four years, that is a huge achievement, and I think it is going

to be really tough, but I think he is capable of doing it. He does look

tired but he does really need to go into the race and I think you will

be able to control it because where he has got to now is the rest of the

field can not believe that they can beat Mo Farah, so they cannot

organise themselves as a team. The Ethiopians possibly, they know he

has got to be tired... 2011 he won his first world Gold in his Olympic

double, and then another world double, then another world " and

here we are, Michael. You have a world record in the 10,000 metres

but unable to win the 5000 metres, because the athlete did not get her

tactics right, Ayana. It has been a very difficult schedule these games,

it has been hard on the athletes, so it will be interesting to see what

sort of toll it has taken on Mo Farah, but it has also taken a toll

on the rest of the athletes. Today, British sports fans would be

disappointed that Tom Daley, having certainly beat record last night

crashed out of the semifinals in the ten metre diving, and it just kind

of puts in perspective for me that you can be at the top of your game,

but you should never take anybody's skill, talent, and execution for

granted. It is the Olympic Games. Anything can happen. And to echo

Paula's went, it was 1972 and 1976 that we last saw a double. No one

has done it since. It is so challenging, so difficult, and it is

about him running his race the way he runs it, and if they let him

control, then fingers crossed. But bring you up to speed with Mo

Farah's Olympic story so far. Farah is kicking hard! The crowd are

lifting him. They are cheering him on! Mo Farah into the home straight.

100 metres to go. Has he got enough? Mo Farah is going for it! It is

going to be a glorious, glorious win! Mo Farah, the Great Britain! It

is gold! Oak on the yes! Oh, yes! The dangerous 1500 metre man is in

third place. They have still got chances. Farah holding the inside.

The crowd are on their feet. They are trying to roar him home. The big

kick has started, the third placed runner looks dangerous. Mo Farah

gritting his teeth now. The arms have got to pump, the ease -- knees

have got to come up high. He has got to find something, got to keep hard.

Come on, Mo Farah, I think is going to get there. Farah is going to make

it two gold medals the Great Britain! Dutiful! Bash that

beautiful -- beautiful! He is the double Olympic champion. Mo Farah

having to work hard, there is a danger here in front, there is

danger behind. He has a look behind. He just checks what is there. Mo

Farah attempting to retain his 10,000 metre Olympic title, here

comes Mo Farah! Mo Farah moves out and he opens those legs of his and

he is sprinting away! They succumb to the inevitable. Doubt to his

superiority, Mo Farah -- bow. He wins the gold, makes history. Let's

put in historical context Mo's achievements in names like Lasse

Viren, who was running in a time when the 10,000 metre had heats.

Imagine that. And then the others as well. It will take 30 minutes

around, something like that. -- 13. I doubt it will be as quick as 13

minutes. Paula, he has not had his own way in these races, there was

the heart in the mouth moment with the fall, bumping in a lot of races,

there have been a few knocks and bumps. What does he have to do to to

stay out of danger? That will be the most difficult thing for Mo Farah is

to stay out of danger, he does not want to go fast, and he will not be

a performer in the first couple of laps, he will be sitting right at

the back but he will be keeping an eye on the rest of the field and

they will gradually move up through the order as the race goes on to

cover anything. This is in his heat where we saw he got into a bit of

trouble. Mo Farah has a long loping stride, he takes up more space on

the track. What mode does is -- Mo Farah does is move in, cuts in

slightly and his leg just catches, nobody's fault, it is just that his

stride length takes up more space. He has to be aware of that and be

careful. When people try and get out behind him, they have to try and

almost step over that back leg and that is the danger when he goes

down, which is what happens in the 10,000 metres. He was able to cope

with it really well. It was only really after the race that the

emotion and how that could have taken his whole quest away from him

at that point hit him, and that is where we saw him so emotional at the

end of the race. If we see him in his customary position in the front

of that pack with two laps to go, then it is all OK. I cannot see many

people being able to challenge him. Superiority that he has and the

superiority complex that he has a less developed over the rest of the

field, not him thinking he is better, but everyone else do not

believe that they can challenge him when it gets into that last lap,

even though they can finish fast. He was recognised as a talent from a

very young age, but it took a while to get his bearings in international

stage. His first and experience and not go well, but then things kind of

turned for him, his style definitely changed. What has happened? I think

he met you at any strength and as athlete. -- strengthened. It is very

rare that someone comes straight in as a youngster and is able to don it

at a world level. It takes years for that endurance and strength to build

up. I think the key change in Mo Farah was when he moved from Alan

Storey to Alberto Salazar. If you look at him in Beijing, number one

he came into the championships carrying far too much in his legs.

He was tired coming in. He was rocking and rolling all over the

place. If you contrast that with his style to date he has really

tightened up his core and his upper body, his arm movement, his head, I

will not talk about that... (LAUGHS) . It is moving a bit there. He has

that little bit of a nod today, but even here in Barcelona he does not

have that confidence, that Imperial way of running, he is still very

quick and he always was very quick, but he is more ragged and he has

just tightened up everything and paid a lot more attention to the

recovery, the little details, and that is what Alberta is really

strong on, making sure everybody... Look here at the anniversary games

in London. What was so impressive was just how steady and how strong

he was, his shoulders barely moving and the contrast from those early

races in 2008 to here, it is massive. That is what enables him,

even when he is tired, to keep the form and keep the turnover and keep

that speed, he has almost got quicker. As a student of sprinting,

Michael, seeing the baht, it really is quite impressive, isn't it? It

is. -- seeing that. I can remember back in 2012 with Alberto Salazar,

he was picking my brain in talking about sprinting and he brought the

entire crew down to Michael Johnson performance and said "Analyse these

guys, we want them to run like sprinters." Because what he could

recognise, technique is in -- important for sprinters and for

distance runners. It is compounded by the distance they have to run, so

technique equals endurance. He has that incredible pace over the last

lap, and it is about 50 minutes from now, and here is Mo Farah, he is

outside on the warmup track at the moment, looking very relaxed,

doesn't he. Just having a nice easy job there. 41 years old... It is

incredible. Amazing. When you get to that sort of age, it is how do you

keep motivating yourself to keep putting in the miles, keep in

meticulous with your nutrition, the injuries, I think he has been

incredible ambassadors of the sport. And Mo... Staying relaxed is key. He

knows what he has to do. We told you when you can expect to see Mo Farah

on the track, but let's have a look at how the timetable pans out for

this last night at the athletics in the stadium. So it is the women's

high jump competition, they have just been introduced to the crowd,

Morgan Lake, who is one of our best heptathlete is, going in that high

jump final. The men's javelin goes off at 12:55 a.m., at 1am it is the

men's 1500 metres, Charlie Grice who has had a really interesting passage

into this final, he will be... He had a slightly fortuitous entry into

that final there, with kind of a passage through the last 100 metres

where he got the door open for him. He is in the final, so maybe luck

will continue and he will have a great final. At 1:30am it is the

men's 5000 metres, the men's four x 400 metre relay final -- the

women's. And then at 235 it is the men's four x 400 metre relay. And on

BBC Two you can see the taekwondo, the women's 67 kg bronze contest,

and Mahama Cho in the men's contest. Martyn Rooney has joined us in the

studio. Good evening. I am sorry it is not under happier circumstances.

I would be loved -- I would love to be out on the track preparing to the

race, but that is not happening tonight. The top about how it

happened, in the heat of the whole thing, yesterday, you are very cross

and very unsure as many of us were what was going on, what was

happening. We now know exactly why you are disqualified, and we have

the footage, we will have a look at it now, and just see, which is to do

with where Matti Hudson Smith was positioned in his handover --

Matthew. He was touching the red Line, his foot was over the redline.

It has to be inside the red line and it was over. That is why Great

Britain in India -- and India were both disqualified. I know that you

were quite cross, are you feeling better with the decision, are you

satisfied that the correct procedure was undertaken? No. Definitely not.

I have just watched it to the first time, and it is not conclusive. It

is the track judges decision, there was no Hawkeye on the line, like in

tennis and football, you can see that the track judge has decided

that that is what he has seen, there is no conclusive evidence to prove

it either way. I have just seen it now and I am even more angry. We do

have a slightly closer image on the still, have a look at this. Does

that make you feel any more satisfied that the right decision

was taken? No. You can barely see the redline. That has been very

badly treated there. I am trying not to swear right now.

I think everyone feels the same way. It doesn't seem clear. However, I

suppose the line judge... The line judge's word is final, it would

appear, in this. I think it makes sense to talk about the process by

which this happens. So the judge makes the decision after the race

and while the race was going on that his foot was over the line. That was

his judgement, as you said, Martyn. What happens at that point is they

make the decision to disqualify the four x 400-metre team. Great Britain

has the opportunity to appeal that decision and once that appeal has

taken place it is upon the team, Great Britain, to show there was

conclusive evidence that there wasn't a violation. That is the

problem, that you can't show conclusive evidence there wasn't a

violation. I think what we are talking about here and what you are

understandably upset about, Martyn, whether or not that decision should

be made subjectively and in terms of whether anyone else was impeded,

which they were not, and whether or not the great Britain team got any

advantage. If there isn't any advantage at all, it is millimetres.

Because that is why they have that rule, they don't want you to be the

opposite side of the line, because now you are to close and the

incoming runner doesn't run a full 400m. There is a bit of the said,

she said, a world recognised official said that he twice, whether

he set it to Matthew Hudson-Smith directly or to the athletes, said

get your foot behind the line. Matthew Hudson-Smith has said no one

said anything to him. I spoke to the judges, the particular judge who

said I spoke to him and the Indian Runner standing there, obviously

while Williams was coming around and jostling in, I told him, move your

foot. He said he repeated it. In the heat of the moment, I know that

Matthew would have been focused on the incoming runner, and so maybe he

didn't hear it. It is a loud stadium, but I don't believe that

Matt... If someone tells you to move, the move. We are meant to be

told where to stand at the 200-metre mark because the guy coming in at

200m has to light up. Last night I had to be told where to stand, and

the same people that are meant to tell you to stand in the right place

at telling him to stand behind the line. I can't believe it. In any

situation, in any relay you have run in international competition, while

you are at waiting on the line, you are facing the infield waiting for

your guide to run. Has anybody ever come by and told you anything? No.

That's why I don't buy it... If you look at the video, all runners are

facing inside. If anyone told them anything they would be standing

behind the runners. We are dealing with a sport at the upper echelons

of its game, why don't we have a camera that? We have cameras

everywhere. We have cameras, millions of cameras everywhere. This

seems to be something that we need to have concrete proof of, rather

than people saying I saw it, though I didn't hear it. In cycling if

there is no concrete proof or video evidence... Sorry to interrupt,

there is also an argument that they don't have to stand that close to

the redline. You could also stand further down. But I understand the

problem because the incoming runner is fatiguing so you want to take up

the baton as early as possible. You could choose to stand five metres

from that line. The cameras that we are talking about, based on what we

showed, I think it would show that his foot was over the line and there

was a violation. If that was immediately shown last night, the

debate would be over. As an athlete once it is conclusive, you accepted

it and you move on. To not have that conclusive evidence that, that is

the tough part for us. I know we are moaning, and we are blessed to be

here and to be doing something we love, but we have a chance to win a

gold medal. And UK, and that comes through loud and clear. I just want

to say I am delighted with how the guys ran -- and you care. We are

talking millimetres, aren't we? And the rule is the rule, and there was

that violation but as we were talking about earlier, the issue is

that it was so close. This fall by 400-metre relay race today is not

the four x 400-metre teams we have seen in the past -- four x

400-metre. If ever there was an opportunity, this was close. It was

a great opportunity for you guys and it is a shame you're not going to be

there. The US team is not as strong as they have been in the past. They

have always been incredible teams and is the first time we went into

Olympics believing we can actually win it. Obviously Jamaica and

Trinidad and Botswana are strong, but we feel like we are better than

last year. The opportunity is there and unfortunately we are not going

to get the chance to be involved. The roar in the stadium is for these

athletes, Usain Bolt and his team-mates, four of the fastest man

of all time. I was thinking that, the second fastest ever in the 200m,

and a world champion who has managed one of the fastest times, Usain

Bolt, of course, we know what he has done, and they are all there in the

stadium last night, running together on the team. That is pretty

incredible. That really sort of sums up what Jamaican sprinting has

contributed to athletics. OK, let's get down to Steve for this one. You

know, there were some people saying I wonder if Usain Bolt fancies

winning a 10th, trotting out the four x four. It is one of the

stranger things, but I am sure he is out celebrating, and rightly so.

Jamaica, as they have been so often in recent times, taking the gold

medal. A very good performance from Japan, a brilliant run from them for

silver. APPLAUSE Number 94 Usain Bolt, and

Jamaica's six gold medal at this particular Olympic Games -- a number

nine four Usain Bolt. An excellent quartet who worked well together,

and the Canadian quartet might just be able to push things once Mr Bolt

has gone. And what we didn't have time last night, because there was

so much going on, with disqualifications and then the

American men were disqualified, was to just pay some sort of tribute to

Japan, who ran the most incredible race. They really did, and they have

been investing in, you know, athletic development and coach

education over the last few years knowing that they are going to be

hosting the games in 2020 and really investing a lot into their athletes.

It is interesting, people were talking all night last night on

Twitter about Japan not having any 100-metre athletes ranked in the top

25 in the world, yet they can get this result and finish in a silver

medal position against the US and Great Britain and these other teams.

That is true and that is amazing, kudos to them. But they don't have

any professional sprinters on the circuit making a living and

representing Japan in the 100m here, and when you do that you don't have

time to just be a team. Those athletes are a team, and they work

as a team and that worked for them. It is very clear what their aim is

in four years' time. More power to them because that is going to be

fascinating. They were neck and neck with Jamaica into that last 100m. It

should be thrilling, when there is no Bolt to take the baton home on

the last leg, you never know. You were saying, maybe not. The very

last time, we will see him hopefully next year in London 2017 but let's

get out into the field. The women's high jump, and an event you are

rather fond of yourself, Steve. There are two field events I am fond

of, the men's javelin final, but also the women's high jump

competition. We have a finalist in Morgan Lake, proud to have made the

final, and this is a look back. She went clear just to settle herself

into the competition, doing that nicely. World junior champion in

this event and the heptathlon, off to the perfect start. The buyer is

now at 1.90 three. Ruth Beitia, three-time European champion, is now

37 years of age. She starts her bid to take this Olympic title. She is

going to be a contender. We expect heights up towards two metres or

more. Ruth Beitia is a contender from Spain. The Croatian also a

contender, lots more action to come. The German javelin finalists are

introduced. Toledo of Argentina, he has done well to make the final.

Arai of Japan, he will probably need a national record to make the

medals, and one of three Czech athletes. The drummers creating the

rhythm at both ends of the stadium. World leader Chaunte Lowe makes very

light work of that. I mentioned contenders, she is certainly one as

well, from America. Performed well across the field events, and the

track, for that matter. Morgan Lake, 1.90 three. She cleared 1.94 to make

this final. A little laboured on the last three strides. They have to be

crisp and accelerating. They were not. First-time failure for Lake.

The first glitch in this final for the youngster. Those last few

strides didn't have the zip that she will need to progress through this

competition. So two more attempts to come. Walcott, the Olympic champion

from four years ago. It is a throw which will dip Shire of 85 metres,

but it is the first throw of the competition. His left side went

away. That was a chance for Walcott to set down a marker, it popped out

right. He was the lead qualifier with a massive 88.68 metres. As the

reigning champion, 83.40 five. A modest start for him. One of three

Germans in this final, Johannes Vetter. And 88-metre throw up at his

very best. It is high and long. Another throw just over 85 metres.

That will take the lead. Good run off, stomping that left side down.

It is 85.30 two. Blocking the left leg, pulling in over the top. 85.32

takes the lead. Next up on the track, it is the Men's 1,500m. One

of the great races in the Olympic programme. And the British

contender, in many ways he has kind of used a few rolls of his dice, he

has had a few lives to get here. He had an appeal in his heat and then a

nice passage through up the inside in his semi-final. He is looking

good, though. He is looking good but it looks wide open Men's 1,500m. I

can't see anyone who will set out hard so it is not going to be a

cracking race, it would be a cat and mouse. Everyone will be waiting to

see what the leading contenders do, and they all think they can sprint

but they can't all sprint as fast as each other but they will all think

they can compete on the last few. It sounds like you think there is a

better way to win this race. I think there is a way people can finish

higher up than they were going to. Steve is the expert. Should Paula is

not wrong. We will see pedestrian early stages of this summer Paula is

right, we have Makhloufi, won a silver in the 800 metres, a big new

personal best for him, and then Kiprop, the man who everyone expects

to win this, he looks a little nervous, and he should be. He looks

down this line and see stickers all over the place. Centrowitz can kick.

Nick Willis has won an Olympic medal as well, the New Zealander. That is

the rate that all the big names want, but they cannot all win. I am

just interested to see if anyone wants to try and make Kiprop her to

little and take him by surprise. Charlie Grice has done brilliantly

-- hurt a little. I have not even mentioned the other Kenyan, Ronald

Kwemoi. Got pushed up the track in the semi-final, a big danger, and if

you watch the diamond lead you would have seen in Monaco he survived --

surprised everybody. Finishing strong in a fast race to finishing

strong in a slow race, that is different. Blankenship, he has done

well. Watch out for Nick Willis, he has been reaped -- weaving his way

through in the home straight, there may be a little bit too much for him

in the final. Nathan Brannen, he broke down in tears when he found

out he had made a final, the 32-year-old for Canada. Charlie

Grace, his first Olympic final. I say -- Charlie Grice. I'm sure there

will be plenty of others. The defending champion, Makhloufi, not

perhaps the most opulent athlete kicking around, but he is having a

great season, and he had a silver medal in 800 metres, does he have

the legs after that. Ryan Gregson, the best that Australia have at the

minute, rediscovering some of his good form this year. The 23-year-old

from Uganda, he will be one of those that Paula Radcliffe was referring

to, why don't you go out and take it on. Matthew Centrowitz, we spoke to

him yesterday and he says "I am going to give myself the best chance

on the last lap", and all of these people, including Kiprop, will be

trying to create that best opportunity, we have seen what

Iguider, we can -- we have seen what he can do. Souleman has had all

sorts of problems on and off the track. His coach was arrested in

Spain when they were preparing for these championships, so not sure

what to expect from Souleman. The men's 1500 metre final, and the one

thing we can expect here is tension, nerves, and I am sure a bit of

jostling and pushing, there might ease some boxing gloves required

when this all kicks off, I would be very surprised if once this settles

down, there you go, do not have to wait long. This is what everybody

was expecting, and that is in itself something that the athletes have to

deal with, they know what is going to happen here, and then somebody

sometimes has got to break this. They are jogging now. You said it,

Kiprop in the middle of the field, Makhloufi, the reigning elite

champion, I don't think I have ever seen a race where we have had to

Olympic 1500 metre champions in the same race appealing to games, but it

is very slow indeed. Kiprop looking over at the screen but he is not

going to find any information there. It might show him that they are

going slow. This is where the nerves come into play. This is where

experience tells, 66 first lap, that is slow. It is very slow. Look where

Nick Willis is. He is from whipping him that if he is going to do

anything on the last lap he wants to be close from the beginning. Kiprop

and Makhloufi will not be so bothered, they will move through the

field when they are ready. That wrote it always likes to have a look

and see what is going on, but for others in this, -- Kiprop always

likes to have a look. Why not get it moving, Charlie Grice just moving on

the outside, this is silly. This is the Olympic final. I know they are

jogging and come the third lap it will kick off, but just get it

moving a little. I agree with that. They do learn on the circuit, and

Kwemoi has fallen. There is a trip by Kiprop, and it is the slow pace

that is to blame. These athletes are used to running on the diamond

league circuit much faster than this, Kwemoi, the fastest athlete,

second fastest athlete in the world this year, that was him falling over

and he has caught up in quite easily because he was 2.16, it is now a 700

metre race. Charlie Grice has himself in a good position. Souleman

is in a good position. Centrowitz and Willis, to be gigas are giving

themselves the best opportunity. Makhloufi starting to move up,

Kiprop was a little bit rock scene. 500 to go. Into the straight, they

are on their way to the bell. Souleman takes over. Kiprop has a

lot of work to do, Makhloufi has a lot to work to do. They are still

falling over each other. Kwemoi very lucky because of that case. The two

Olympic champions clash and now we have a race, and almost you would

say this is anybody's race. Charlie Grice is still in fifth place.

Kiprop behind him. He got muscled out by Makhloufi but now he is going

down the back straight. Kwemoi trying to come from further back

after having fallen. It is Centrowitz of the USA in front.

Makhloufi moving up onto his shoulder. Kwemoi still trying to

catch up. It is the USA, Centrowitz, and Centrowitz is one of the best

cases in the last 100 metres, can he do it, Makhloufi coming higher,

Centrowitz still has it, Kiprop is not going to win this, it is

Makhloufi and Centrowitz, that Centrowitz of the USA, Willis is

coming through for the bronze, it is going to be that Centrowitz! The USA

get the gold -- Matthew Centrowitz. Iguider second, that Willis, another

bronze medal at the Olympic Games. -- Matt. That was a race won by a

smart piece of running before the third lap, he said "If you are going

to go the slow, I will go to the front. " A set at the beginning of

the race that if they run in the right position, if those two guys

are anywhere near the front, they are the best in the last 100 metres.

Willis probably was there, but when I saw Centrowitz at the front, I was

thinking "Good luck getting past him." What a great performance.

Matthew Centrowitz of the USA, fabulous performance. Everything he

did was right, the others, including the lipid champion, Kiprop and

Makhloufi did not have a good race. -- the Olympic champion. I said

during commentary that it was a 700 metre race, supposedly was a 1500

metre race but it almost came down to a 108 race. But look, there they

go. On the outside, Nick Willis, on the inside, and there is the trip of

Kwemoi, he was unlucky there but he managed to catch up again, he was

trip from behind by Souleman. There was a lot of pushing, Centrowitz is

now in the front. Coached by Alberto Salazar, and the bell goes and they

are pushing and shoving and fighting to position and there is not really

much happening. You said before the race, keep an eye Nick Willis. But

look at him there, he is alongside Charlie Grice, and here he comes on

the outside, the long striding Kiprop, and I am sure the whole way

this race went was against his interest. He is not sure good in a

short race, Centrowitz holds off, the first movie he makes there, he

has got himself in a good position, he holds off Kiprop, the two Olympic

champions together now, Makhloufi coming white on the outside in the

green vest, coming to challenge Centrowitz, but Centrowitz in the

home straight is kicking again, and look at Willis, looking through,

sashaying his way through. He is into second place, third place,

chasing Makhloufi, but a glorious performance, wonderful to be able to

say that the limpet champion in the 1500 metres is an American, Matt

Centrowitz. -- of the Olympic champion. Again, look at what Nick

Willis has got to do. He has to find space and fine paste and does

absolutely both of them -- find pace. Well done, Matt Centrowitz,

what a pleasure to watch him run like that. Makhloufi in second

place, Willis in third. And fading away is Kiprop. The gold medal is on

its way to the United States, I have not been able to say that for a long

time. It was a bronze for New Zealand in the pole vault last

night, a youngster just beginning her career, and a man of the other

end of his career, a brilliant one. -- a brilliant run. Centrowitz has

been able to overcome all sorts of injuries this year, and that was a

win for a smart piece of running. A great win, a great gold medal for

the USA. Times were irrelevant except that I can tell you that he

ran 50.62 to his last lap. Makhloufi with another silver medal, Nick

Willis taking the blondes and Charlie Grice finished in 12th place

-- bronze. Charlie Grice just getting burned up a little on the

last lap. This is Julius Yego, who proved last year that there is more

to Kenyan athletics than just running. He has fallen on that, but

that is high and long, that is a big throw from Julius Yego. That is the

biggest of the competition, that will take the lead. Where did that

come from! He took three quote -- three throws to qualify two days

ago, the man who learnt to throw watching videos on YouTube, one of

the canyons -- while the other canyons are on the track, it is --

Kenyan, it is Julius Yego in the javelin. Big throw. Thomas Rohler

looking to respond to that big throw from Julius Yego. Rohler quick on

the approach, just saves it in time, that is another big effort. That is

a long way down the field, maybe not quite as far as the Kenyan, hurt his

back in the European Championships, Thomas Rohler, has not competed

since. Showed no sign of that injury there, looking in really good shape.

Still in the first round here. It is 87.40 seven German. -- 87.40 four

the German. All right then. Morgan Lake. Two

fouls, a 1.93, she cleared one centimetre higher to make this

final, can she stay in a clutch jump, needed under pressure here.

Oh, yes! Morgan Lake! Billion jump! Showed real character -- brilliance.

Showed real character that in the political final. -- Olympic final.

Great maturity for 19 years of age. Great jump under pressure. There are

the women out on the track ready for the 800 metre final which is the

next events taking place, Lynsey Sharp of Great Britain out there,

and Caster Semenya just behind her, she has not lost a race this year,

she is the outstanding favourite, the world champion of 2009, silver

medals in 2011 at the World Championships and in London as well.

Paula Radcliffe is in the commentary box ready for this. If I can ask

your quick question, Paula, it is almost impossible to have a

conversation about Caster Semenya without talking about her hyper

androgyny. The rules change the defined female competition from a

straight at physical test and chromosome test to testosterone

levels. It was a big margin and they said

athletes above that could have the option of having an operation or

taking medication to lower testosterone levels. Then there was

the case last year, where it was decided that was unfair and they

gave that IAAF two years to put together the evidence to show how

much of an advantage testosterone, or higher levels of testosterone,

gave in racing. What's wrong with this is we are discussing this in

relation to Caster Semenya. She is not the only athlete with that

condition. We should be celebrating the achievements she has done. She

is the Olympic silver-medallist coming into this race. She may yet

be up rated to Olympic old in London.

There it is, the first of the finalists. The world champion.

Lynsey Sharp in lane seven. She looked so strong in qualifying.

Shouldn't just want to make the final, she believes she can. Melissa

Bishop. Huge improvements in Beijing. Has gone even faster this

year. Catchy threaten? This is the world indoor and when Semenya didn't

compete. The only woman to get close the south African this season.

Another threat will surely come from Margaret Wambui. She could certainly

go below her record. But nobody, perhaps Usain Bolt, can come to the

start line with more attention than Caster Semenya. But for this young

woman a different type of attention. All she can do is run and try to

win. Certainly a favourite. Joanna Jozwik on her first round heat at

her semi-final. She will run near the back and try to come through.

Maybe a bit too much of this company to do that. Kate Grace, the only

American in this final. Only just scraped through the first round but

then a personal best in the semi-final. That is the lineup. As I

said, Caster Semenya comes to this final under the school are, under

intense spotlight for reasons far beyond her control. -- under the

glare. The women's 800 metres is under way. People getting excited

about how fast she could run. I don't think she will get close to

the world record. She just wants to win this. We will see how quickly it

is taken out. Caster Semenya I am sure will control this race. Let's

see what kind of pace Lynsey Sharp sets. Semenya is to the front.

Melissa Bishop. A bit of a cheque from Melissa Bishop. Right away now

we are seeing Caster Semenya go to the front. She is controlling the

race and she will do so from here. Francine Niyonsaba also there. The

other girls in the race can compete with Semenya. There is only Margaret

Wambui. It won't be a world record. 400 metres to go between Caster

Semenya. Francine Niyonsaba trying to take the lead from her. Elizabeth

should just sitting behind. Wambui bidding to make her move. Melissa

Sharp in fifth place. -- Wambui Bell trying to get the long stride going.

Niyonsaba trying to hold off the invincible Caster Semenya. But here

comes Semenya. Wambui Into third place. Melissa Bishop trying to hold

on. Semenya steps on the accelerator, moves up and away from

the rest. Melissa Bishop trying to hold off, but Wambui will get there.

Semenya is the champion, Niyonsaba, then Wambui. Lynsey Sharp coming

through 1.55 off the first lap. What a pace she found. What an

exhilaration. That's a personal best and a national record. A new South

African record for Caster Semenya. More importantly it is the Olympic

title. Niyonsaba David Hearn best but nobody could hold off Caster

Semenya. No, Niyonsaba definitely gave it her best shot. That was

really quick. She really took the race to Caster Semenya, but she just

had enough left to win a title, and convincingly. I mean, the fastest

time in the world this year without even trying on the first lap. Lynsey

Sharp finished in sixth position, so came through strongly and has run a

big personal best. 1.57 for sixth place. You will see as they come in

with one lap to go, Caster Semenya controlling the race. But Niyonsaba

made her move and made her move hard and she really laid down the

gauntlet and went and made it an honest and strong race for her from

400 metres out. Caster Semenya just sat behind her. Here it was Wambui

who was a little bit late in responding. Melissa Bishop had

herself in a perfect position. She was slightly boxed at she had Caster

Semenya in front of her, and she knew she would move why it and go

fast and leave space for her to come through in the closing stages. It is

exactly what happened. She was in a position to be able to respond and

maybe even come through and follow Caster Semenya for the silver medal,

but she just ran as fast as you could add at this point she had

herself in the bronze medal position. Every ounce of energy that

she had. But Wambui was just fighting. Caster Semenya just moving

away fast and strong. You said you didn't think we would see a world

medal tonight -- world record, but I think she was capable of that. I

think she could eat that world record, she has it in her. That's

exactly two seconds slower than the world record, but Semenya finishing

and everyone else working so hard and rocking from side to side.

Semenya is in total control. She perhaps didn't want to go faster

tonight. It was all about the gold medal. At Crowtree taking silver and

Wambui with the bronze. -- Niyonsaba taking silver. Melissa Bishop has

run a personal best. She was already 30 in the UK best times list. Great

runs from so many runners behind her. Caster Semenya was a long way

ahead. We knew it was going to be a gold medal for Caster Semenya, just

a matter of how she ran. I think it is important to underline that she

has gone out there and has won at Olympic title. We talk about the

controversy still surrounding the race from 2012. She may yet be

upgraded to a gold medal there, but she won't have the gold medal moment

she had denied. The other on testing challengers are coming from

different quarters, but Caster Semenya is the Olympic champion.

17 athletes started this women's high jump final. We are down to 12.

This is best vanished contestant. The clearance at this new height of

1.90 seven. -- 1.97. May a height that will filter the athletes down

further. Put that wonderful have tough on high jump into context.

1.97. Mirela Demireva. Went close to it. But clear. Just two clearances

so far at this new height of 1.97. Great Britain's 4x100 metre relay

women are on the track. They are outside and ready to step up and

collect their bronze medals for their fantastic run last night. That

successful quartet, they are all smiles. Joy on their faces last

night when they crossed the line and joy tonight. An absolutely fantastic

run. Everybody back home was delighted for this young quartet.

They ran superbly, brilliant result. They are walking away with a bronze

medal and that's because of the camaraderie they have. How far can

they go? I think if you think back to the anniversary games, this is a

team that could really contend for a medal without having to depend on

somebody dropping a baton and they did that. I think it is really a

great time in terms of potential for young women's British sprinting. I

think they are competitive. A couple of years ago it was starting to come

with the likes of Jodie Williams and she has had some injury issues, but

I think these girls do believe in themselves. They are young and

talented and compete with the best in the world. Obviously the

challenge is to get them to want to XL as individual athletes because

each of them do have real potential in that space and they will be so

celebrated as a team and as a relay. The danger is that they start to

identify themselves only as a team. OK, let's hand over to Andrew, who

is talking us through the ceremony. That's a first medal in this event

for Great Britain since 1984. The silver goes to Jamaica. Tony

Williams, Elaine Thompson, Veronica Campbell taking a medal. A very good

lineup, in particular with Elaine Thompson and Fraser-Pryce, but they

were a distant second best to the champions. Fraser-Pryce had a very

strong finish, but the Americans were able to hold on. A little

paperweight for one and all. Fraser-Pryce is far more used to

collecting gold. What an Olympic Games it has been for Elaine

Thompson. There is Campbell-Brown. She wandered all over the place in

the 200 metres and are better days are behind her, but still part of a

very strong quartet. Fraser-Pryce still with a smile. The women

creating history in this quartet as well. A little bit of a false start

from Bartoletta, but she now takes gold in the 4x100.

Akinosun who ran in the heats, in which Gardner -- English Gardner and

Allyson Felix isn't there as she is getting ready for the 4x4 -- 4x400.

The United States have had some good tussles with Jamaica over this

event. If you remember they were originally disqualified for a

changeover to English Gardner and Allyson Felix couldn't get the baton

over. But it was found the English runner had impeded her. They did a

time trial, they qualified and now they have the gold medal. The anthem

of the United States of America. Britain and Northern Ireland, silver

for Jamaica and old for the United States. NATIONAL ANTHEM PLAYS.

Gold in the four x 100 for the United States, they may be more to

come in a 4x4 hundreds, in just a few moments time. -- four x 400.

That is what is next on the track, the men's 5000 metres, and we saw

Great Britain's women they are just getting their bronze medals behind

the United States and Jamaica, and hopefully more from them in the

years to come, they look like a really well drilled Quartet,

confident with the world at their feet and they can move on from this

Olympics with great confidence. They are all first-time Olympians. We

talk about the advantage having a Olympic experience gives you, these

girls, it bodes well for the future, what they have got to do in the next

couple of years is really stay healthy, because I think the

building blocks they have put down over the last couple of years have

been really, really solid, and we have seen from them, running

supremely well in the heat and the semifinals, just outside her

personal best. It is getting a taste for it. Getting a taste for this

Olympic arena, smelling it and feeling it. Saying that I want more

of this. For someone like Asha Smith who is on an upward trajectory,

identified early on as having major talent and some success, what the

problem is if that sex is -- if that success stalls. She has that great

potential, it certainly bodes well for her future in the next few

years. Mo Farah coming out there, you see him there, coming on to the

track in the men's 5000 metre final. It is a state he is used at a stage

is comfortable on, but the only 5000 metres he ran this year was the

anniversary games, how much confidence will that give him that

he can look at anybody around him who thinks they can challenge and

and know that he has a read at once this year quicker than them. I think

this race in London was important, he ran it pretty much on his own, he

ran hard and that is one thing that Mo Farah has been criticised for, if

he has been good size for anything, he has not gone other fast times,

but he looked really comfortable, and there is a lot more to come, and

it gave him a confidence boost because he knew that not only could

he finished fast but he could control the race and the guys will

let him control the race, but if he can just sit there and still be able

to kick as hard or harder than the others can on that last laugh. In

London we did not necessarily expect, we hoped. We came here and

we started to expect of it. I am just so nervous now because this

feels like we really are on the precipice of incredible greatness

and a landmark that is just, it is unprecedented. I think he has

adapted to that end I think he felt greater pressure last year in

Beijing, we saw him with more pressure on him. This year he is

happier and I think he is enjoying it and are preaching the situation

he is in. It has not been done to 40 years, can Mo Farah once more right

himself into the history books and art? -- tonight. It is not a case of

right himself into the history books, it is more about turning in

yet another page and having another story. Interested just to watch him

out there, more on that in the second. He has got some familiar

faces against him. Some names you will remember, Gebremeskel, going

back to 2012. David Torrance running for Peru, the former American.

Gebrhiwet, the famous Ethiopian talent. I am not sure I have seen Mo

Farah this animated towards the start line. He is encouraging the

crowd, he looks more aggressive in his nature. Normally he is more

smiling, he has a real face on into night. There is a good line for you.

"Believe". We have believed for a long time. He has got better and

better, and he is strutting his stuff, looking confident. A boxing

match here, Mo Farah, what a privilege to be here tonight to

watch this brilliant British athlete. Paul Chelimo, former Kenyan

now running for the USA. He was not that far away, and he actually ran a

faster last lap than Mo Farah in London in 2012. Mo will have to be

thinking, he has to concentrate all the time, stay on his feet, stay

close to what is going on. The men's 5000 metre final. Mo Farah going for

the double-double. Mo Farah trying to do something that so many greats

could not do. You could go through all the great

names of the past, and Mo Farah has an opportunity here to hopefully

take this fourth gold medal, and the double again would be his. Early

stages, we are not expect a much, we are expecting it to be not that

quick, but the Ethiopians have gone to the front already, I think Mo was

expecting it to be fairly slow, but even if it is a little bit quicker

he will not be too disappointed, he might even be quite pleased with

that full what I think I would be quite pleased, because to be honest

with you I am more nervous about my running that I have been in any of

his -- Mo Farah running. Then I have been in any of his races and 2012.

He tripped in the 5000, he looked a bit vulnerable after the 10,000

metre race, he was a bit disturbed because of that fall, I think it is

a better race for everyone, including Mo Farah, the first 62 to

the first lap, it is proper distance running, we are not going to get

punching like we did in the heats and in the 1500 metres we have just

seen, and it is great to see Andy Butchart. I think he will go well.

He has been running extremely well recently, he has a good fast finish

and Mo Farah is realising that the pace is a little bit for real, he is

taking his customer position away from the back of the field, moving

on through and just relaxing. Looking good, looking strong and

doing it sensibly. This is interesting to me. Gebrhiwet and

Gebremeskel, both of whom have run the 5000 metres quicker than Mo

Farah, their best ever, and one to others in the field who have done

that, but times in the 5000 are not the determinants of who get the

medal. The one who has not, he has moved his way through, that danger

for me is Edris. As soon as Edris moved up, Mo Farah followed him.

That is good, solid pace. It is a pace that these athletes are used to

running out, but they are not used in the limp against to have -- India

limp against to have team tactics at play, and the -- in the Olympic

Games. I prefer it like this. I think Mo Farah prefers it like this.

That is pretty quick, isn't it. 2.37 through the first kilometre. That

would have to be the quickest ever first kilometre in an Olympic 5000,

used to hold the Olympic record for the 5000 metres many years ago, and

it is not often we see this early on. Additionally given the fact that

Gebremeskel, saw medallist last time, Gebrhiwet, perhaps the running

of all has used to, but so formidable, is this a genuine

attempt to take on Mo Farah or content to get rid of as many people

as possible. These guys have watched Mo, they have run against Mo, they

have five World Championship gold medals, three Olympic gold medals

are ready, they have decided, and I think this is clever and sensible on

their behalf, they are saying "We cannot beat him in a slow race, so

let's make it a bit faster, let's test him out." This makes it true

distance running, it makes it a sensible way to do it and the

Ethiopian team have stuck together and work this one out and now they

are making it a true running race and I think it is better, I think

this is better than Mo Farah. Paul, just a word on when you go to the

front like this, what have they got to do -- Paul R. They are sharing

the lead here. -- Paula. They has to sustain it. The MoU to working

together like this is so much easier than having to leave it out and

grind it out on your own. Immediately they went to the front,

people started to wake up and everybody who is going to be a

contender in the race at this pace has got themselves up there with

that lead group. So we have Gebrhiwet, Gebremeskel, they have

both been taking turns air. Edris than Mo Farah, just sitting offered

a little bit. The Ugandan, who ran in the earlier race. Andrew Butchart

would never have set off at this sort of pace. He has run personal

best source is a long and he must be thinking, this wasn't in the plan!

This was not in the script. But one of the advantages of Andrew

Butchart, he looks quite hot there in the middle of the pack, running

strongly still, but when you go to the front and CDs to Ethiopian

athletes, they have seen the 10,000 metres, they think maybe Mo has a

few weaknesses, but the advantage they have got is that before the

race they have talked about it, clearly, because they have shared it

religiously, and they knew before they came here that they were going

to run a fast race. Everyone else, be included, thought it would be a

steady rate. Mo Farah now, in the middle of the pack, has been tested

in endurance, they are talking about who is going to go next and whether

they are going to go, that is seven laps to go in the men's 5000 metres

and so far the Ethiopian plan to stretch Mo Farah, stretching out,

see if he has any weaknesses, because he is faster than the

fastest, they are going to find out if he is stronger than the

strongest. Interesting, as we talk about Andrew

Butchart, he moved up, we were thinking that if this was slow he

could be dangerous in the last 5000 metres. He is dangerous at the

moment. He has moved into fifth place off a pretty good pace. A very

good pace indeed. Butchart, not frightened, not scared, D think

people respect obviously that he is looking as though he belongs in this

final, and so he should after a brilliant season. Wreck Britain with

two men in the top seven here. Ethiopian leaving it but slowing.

That was the slowest lap, the previous one, as they come around

this time, I expect this one will be even slower. This one looks at had

slower than the last one. Six laps to go at they are running at around

30 minute pace, -- 13 minutes. That was about 65 second lap. The two

athletes who have done it properly, they have shared it, they have done

it after a lap, my turn, your turn, I just wonder now what is their

tactics, as they get into the late stages. You don't want to keep

leading like this, and Gebremeskel, the leader, he was a

silver-medallist in London, behind Mo Farah, he has got a strong

finishing run, and I am wondering, is he going to leave himself at the

front or is he going to slow himself into second place, they are

controlling the race, dictating the race, but let's face it, we have

seen Ethiopian 's win this one before.

You have to maintain it. You can't run from running 30 minute pace and

then 20. Mo Farah has gone, OK, that was your opening, I've taken that.

Not good enough at this point. I am ready and waiting. I write here,

right where I want to be. Just U know I am here. You slow down, I

moved to the front, you speed up, I am coming with you. Five laps to go

in the men's five -- 5000 metres. The gold and silver-medallists are

in the top two positions. Mo Farah is letting them know he is there and

he is stronger and he won't let them dictate it. He moves to the front

and then relaxes at little. He is now trying to control this race. We

have seen him do this before and he is doing it at a faster pace today.

The confidence he showed, winning the 10,000 metres, when he came out

today he was really excited, ready to get on with this. A great British

athlete. He is already one of the all-time greats. He is getting into

the list of the best we've ever seen. For my money he is already

there. He hates losing. He wants to win again. He has ran thousands of

miles in training. Now he is into his last mile. Four laps to go in

this Olympic final. Mile which could take to further Olympic glory. A

mile which could take into his fourth Olympic gold medal. Andrew

Butchart, what a race he is having. His coach must be so excited. He is

sitting in their near Mo Farah as they approach. 3.5 laps to go and Mo

Farah has decided he wants to get hold of this race already. The one

we thought was the big danger is right there. The Americans off

cause, you mentioned Bernard Lagat. He is slowing down deliberately.

Settling down and Andrew Butchart is running a really good race, coming

alongside Mo Farah. What a site that is. Two British athletes

side-by-side in the men's 5000 metres. Andrew Butchart is going to

be waiting, but don't get too excited. We know he is strong over

last couple of laps and they are now approaching the back straight. 1000

metres from the finish. Mo Farah is looking around, trying to be in

control. He looks powerful. He looks at his very best. Just a little

exhilaration. I think he wants to be in this position with two laps to

go. 1000 metres left. The 5000 metres final. That was the slowest

kilometre. Mo Farah leading. Butchart still in the group. Danger

everywhere he looks, but he knows all of these people have tried to

get him in the past and none of them have managed to get past him. None

of these people are quicker than Mo Farah when he is at his best last

400 metres. Two laps to go. Butchart sitting behind the lead group. The

63 second lap. Starting to wind up a little bit. Mo Farah in the

controlling position. He is in the place he wants to be. He wants to

hold it there. There's a lot of company. You can just see a little

exhilaration from Mo Farah. He doesn't want anyone to come past. He

will run his race if he can. He comes down the back straight. Three

medals in the bag. Will it be another one, an historic fourth? He

has put himself into a real chance now. Mo Farah checking behind to --

and to decide. Looks at the big screen, sees them all there.

Just a little push and shove and Gebrhiwet is trying to get to the

front. There goes Mo Farah. He has company. He is exhilarating,

sprinting, he is now in the driving seat. Has he got the finish that we

have seen him produce over the years? Can he and to the three gold

medals? Mo Farah! Mo Farah knows that he just has to hold on. He just

needs to hold the lead. They will attack again, what Mo Farah has more

to give! He has speed in those legs! Looking up at the screen! They are

trying to catch him! Mo Farah checks that there is no danger on the

inside! Chelimo is trying but he won't get him! Mo Farah is gone and

he is away! Mo Farah is going to get gold for Great Britain again! The

double double! Four Olympic titles, as Butchart runs a great race. Four

Olympic gold medals! Incredible from Mo Farah! We have never seen anybody

who has been able to finish like that. Nobody is able to close a race

like Mo Farah! Nobody is able to take all comers on. It doesn't

matter who they are or how fast they are, it doesn't matter how quick

they front before. They can't get past Mo Farah. It isn't just his

speed, it is his tenacity, his desire to win, his drive to win. The

confidence that he has and you have to say the race craft that he has.

He controls them. I talked before about him being like a puppet

master. And he shows it time and time again. Nobody has yet worked

out how to cut the strings. LAUGHS. That's right, Steve. What a moment.

What a fantastic performance by Mo Farah. What a privilege to be here

and see this man collect his fourth Olympic gold medal and he did that

one in style. He did it his way, he did it the only way he knows how. He

knows how to win races. He is here to win and he has won it. There is

his family celebrating in the background. He will try to climb

onto the stadium. Mo, you are a treasure. More than a national

treasure. He is the greatest we have ever had. He is now one of the

greatest distance runners the world has ever seen. If you think about

it, he did it, he ran the 10,000, he is running the 5000, he has people

around him, they thought he might be tired IT is going across to see if

he can get to his family and his friends and supporters. Collect and

other flag, go on, he is taking selfies. What ASDA. -- what a star.

This was hard again. They really had to go. Chelimo was a surprise. At

the bell there was a bit of a push and shove. This is what Mo Farah

does best. He just reacts. It isn't just his speed. That lap, a bit of

an exhilaration, a bit of an elbow, I am holding onto this. The elbow is

the key point. He is on the last lap, on his journey. Three in the

bag, another on its way. They are coming out and making an effort, but

he did it every time they came. Every time they attacked he attacked

back. Down the back straight. I remember Alberto Salazar said he is

if this competitor. -- fears competitor. This time he is running

away, moving away, opening the gap. He has Chelimo chasing him but he

isn't interested in that. Into the finishing straight and running 52.8

in the last lap, the fastest lap have seen from him this year. 52.8

in 2016, 52.9 in Rio. Now you have to think about this man and what he

has done. Look at him. There are years. 200 metres to go, to add his

fourth gold medal. He is the greatest athlete we have ever had

and I think he is the greatest sportsman Britain has ever had. You

know, at the end of the year there will be on is given out and let's be

honest, Mo Farah, for services to athletics, deserves to be Sir Mo

Farah. He should be the first to be knighted for services to athletics.

What an amazing performance by an amazing man. The determination, the

grit, the way he works, what a testimony to the greatest we've ever

seen. I think one of the greatest distance runners the world has ever

seen. What a sight. For Mo Farah, the pain

etched on his face, mixed with delight and pride and relief. A lot

of pressure on Mo Farah in the same way that there was a lot of pressure

on Usain Bolt to deliver. For Mo, it has been a long journey. People hang

the gold medals around his neck, of course, that's easy to do, we easy

to do. It is another thing to run those thousands of miles sometimes

on his own, sometimes with friends, time away from his family and he can

enjoy more time with them now. Usually it isn't so difficult to get

to his family but he did well. All athletes go through that and all

athletes train hard, of course they do. But I haven't met anybody...

Well, I am asking you, but I haven't met too many of them. You and I

watch him sometimes, he needs to do a ten mile run, and he is able to go

round and round and round and round. His focus is incredible. It wasn't

just a ten mile run, it was 20 that he did in the same direction on the

track. He can just mentally focused so much. The other thing is that in

doing that most athletes would see an injury risk in that and he is

able to stay injury free. That's a key factor. I think the biggest

factor is just his will will not be beaten. Nobody in his mind can beat

him and he won't let anybody beat him and he holds and holds that

position. I don't think we will ever see somebody else control of fields

like he has done. On the plus side, Andy Butchart run a PB. Sadly Mo

Farah would be around forever, but the future of the men's 5000 metres

has taken a step forward. Well, those feet deserve a nice ice

bath. Well done! Well, the women's high jump final. Only four athletes

remain. They've all cleared. This is two metres now. Vlasic is out. At

the moment Beitia is in the number one spot. It will be decided at two

metres. Lowe, the only athlete to stop Ruth Beitia taking the title.

She knocks it. Well, unbelievable. Ruth Beitia is the Olympic champion

with a jump of 1.97. Just looking down the list of previous

championships, the last eight Olympics have been won with two

metres or more. Heights that matter in the record books. Ruth Beitia is

fourth -- was fourth four years ago. At the age of 37, Ruth Beitia wins

the women's high jump. Well, he is enjoying these

celebrations, and why not? We pretty much no doubt at the Olympic Games

anyway the track I not be fought Mo Farah, but what a performance again

from him and what scenes. Yego, the event leader, Kenyon, leader in the

field event for the first time ever. This is his fourth round throw. He

is leading with 88 metres. He failed that, surely. He looks hurt. Limping

off. Doesn't look good for the rest of his competition. Let's have a

look at this. He went over on his ankle. He fouled it. During a first

round of 88.24, still on meeting the lead at it looks as though Yego...

It might be done. I do know if he will come back from that. Let's have

a look at this again. Left and will goes over. -- left ankle. He is in

the lead. But he is really struggling with two throws

remaining. Yego may not be able to take any further part. An anxious

look on his face. He is in the lead. What a position he is in. He may

have to sit out and watch. It is his right ankle that went. Well, is here

in a wheelchair that? He looks as though he is going to have to sit

and watch the rest of that competition. Across to Thomas

Rohler, in second place at the moment. Less than one metre down. A

91 metre man at his best. Fast on the approach. A big throw fought

Rohler! That's over 90 metres! -- big throw for. Rohler knew he had it

in him. He was injured about five weeks ago and hasn't competed since.

We wondered what his shape would be coming to these championships and in

the fifth round, with an injured Yego, the event leader, look at

that. He hit back so clean. Wonderful technique. He was fast on

the approach and he knew it. A big shout from the world leader. 90

metres .30 done at -- 90.30 metres. He takes the lead.

StuffIt Mac starred (SIGHS) a gold medal ceremony taking place for

Caster Semenya. But Caster Semenya has been so dominant.

Semenya's goal was one point 55 .20 eight. She can certainly go quicker

but tonight she is the Olympic champion. We have some news from the

5000 metres. It does not affect Mo Farah. We have had to back

disqualifications. It was a rough and tumble final lap and the second

and third place winners have been disqualified. The Ethiopian and the

American have both been disqualified. It does not affect Mo

Farah, thank goodness. Apart from anything else, we will need to ask

Mo about that. We have a lot of ground to cover here.

Congratulations, Mohd. In fourth gold medal. I cannot believe it.

After the ten K my legs were a little tired and I did not know what

to come. I was resting in my room and people were bringing me my food

but I did it, I did it. I cannot believe it. It has yet to sink in.

Is it satisfying? Absolutely. It was not a fluke in London because I did

it again here. I just want to go home now and see my children and I

want to hang my medals around their neck. Every child has a medal so...

Everybody will be happy. Tell me about the race. The Ethiopians tried

to make it a true race but you took back control. I was a little

surprised in the first light because I thought it would be a slow race, I

got it wrong. I did not know they would play together. I have a faster

pace than them in the final lap so they wanted to take the sting out of

me. I had to be patient and work my way through and when I hit the front

I was not going to let anyone pass me. Did you know what was happening

around you and behind you? Two runners have been disqualified. I

was a little surprised. Tactically you get pushed and it happens, it

happens. But I just had to stay in my own game and control the race.

You have incredible tenacity, we mentioned it in commentary. You love

to win but you hate to lose more. Since I was a child, I hated to

lose. Even in physical lead at school I hated to lose. It is just

me. I hate losing, even computer games. You are the greatest athlete

of all time for Britain. Four gold medals now. It is truly staggering.

Remember back to 2000 and Olympic experience back then. Can you

believe it? Even in your wildest dreams, that you could do this? I

wished that I could have just one medal, that was how I saw it as a

junior. I won the European juniors, it has been a long journey but if

you dream up something and you have the ambition and you are willing to

work hard, you can achieve your dreams. It is something that I have

been working hard on for years and years. Sometimes there is

disappointed that you need to take it and learn from it. Each race I

try to learn some in, be it good or bad. That is what got me they are. I

don't see my children and for me I was going to miss out on anything. I

want to do it for them and that is what drives me. All of that time

that I will never catch up on, the time I miss with my children, but at

the same time if I can achieve something, it is for them. That is

what drives me. You are the pride of the nation, Mohd. I'd like to tell

everybody backcombing thank you for your support. I love you all. The

big news was the disqualifications. We were trying to work out the rule

infringement. There has been a lot of pushing and shoving on this final

lap and one or two have definitely stepped. The Ethiopian did, he has

been disqualified for Lane infringement. The writer in blue has

been disqualified. Armoured was disqualified. There was a bit of

push and shove them but they have been disqualified, we are told, for

stepping on the inside. Whether this happens on the top end or not I

certainly noticed Edris do it. Let's just see if anybody takes a step.

Well, anyway, I can tell you that that is what we have been told so

far. So what it means is that is Andrew Butchert is in fourth place.

We will try and tidy that up as much as we can after the next race. An

extraordinary effort there from Mo Farah and the drama of the

disqualifications, not to mention the incredible race of Andrew

Butchert. The women's relay race is not too far away.

So the British quartet involved here is getting ready. Christine

Ohuruogu, Eilidh Doyle, Diamond... The final stages of the javelin

final. The Olympic champion has the final throw to stop his title being

ripped away from him and being given to Rohler of Germany. A tall order

for the man from Trinidad. Now, he has dropped it badly. There is your

champion. And for the first time since 1936 in Berlin, a German has

the Olympic gold. The next final, the women's 4x400 relay. Eilidh

Doyle has been brought in after her effort in the hurdles. She is on the

first leg. She has great pace and stamina. Massey dropping out.

Ukraine may be a threat, Jamaica in the US are strong. The Ukraine...

Just behind the British in qualifying. We had the

introductions. No team got into a terribly much, we did not have a lot

of choreography. That was about as good as it got. So the Great Britain

and Northern Ireland team. Eilidh Doyle. Emily Diamond is on the third

leg, Ohuruogu was on the final leg. Three countries have won the medals

in the last four Olympic Games. Exactly the same order, United

States, Russia and Jamaica. Russia is not here but certainly the United

States and Jamaica are the favourites for this race. Italy will

enter in lane one. Australia in lane two, Great Britain in free. Ukraine

just outside them and then be two favourites, Jamaica and the US.

Stephenie Ann McPherson being brought in on the first leg

therefore to make a stop Williams-Mills will bring them home.

Poland in the eighth Lane, same as in the heats. Carline Miller -- Muir

for Canada. Allyson Felix is on the anchor. McPherson comes in for

Jamaica. So too does Jackson. A strong first three for Jamaica. I

think they are just hoping that were milk and hold on. The Ukraine were

-- they are hoping Williams-Mills can hold on. The Ukraine were strong

in the heat. Morgan Mitchell and Anneliese Ribbit, the strongest

runners therefore Australia. And Italy on the inside. Hoping they can

be in any sort of position. It will be a difficult race for Italy in

race one. -- Annalisa Rubie. Great Britain has a chance here for a

medal. But Jamaica and the US will battle it out for the gold.

Still perfect conditions again for the final of the women's map iMac

relay. -- women's 4x400 relay. Doyle starts for the British, running

quite strongly. Stephenie Ann McPherson for Jamaica. Courtney was

sixth in the US trials but ran well in the heats. She is being chased

down by McPherson. Jamaica with the great strength. McPherson and

Jackson coming in again. An elongated stated that difficult to

tell and additionally do what we can see is that it has been a good run

from Doyle so far. Stephanie going quite quickly for Jamaica. Muir

running a good first leg for Jamaica. Muir faded. Canada, one of

the teams that Great Britain at fearful of. Doyle doing a great job

here. USA, Jamaica and tighter for third. We need to get a good hard

and in here and get around and try and get into third place. At the

very least, be in contention for it. I think she can do it. This is quite

important. You can control things from you. Well done. Good experience

and she is now in third. She needs to stay strong for the second 200.

She has gone out hard. She was upset to not make the individuals

hereafter feeling she got the better of Ohuruogu in the European

Championships. As the United States ahead of Jamaica and then a big gap

back to Great Britain. She is delivering to the handover and Emily

Diamond is waiting for Canada is now Wednesday, then Poland and Great

Britain. Emily Diamond has a bit to do because Australia is also running

well. Emily Diamond checking on behind those two now. It is not over

yet. They fell apart in the last 15 metres but Emily Diamond has to be

patient here and give Christine Ohuruogu a chance. Emily is looking

strong and looking good. As she comes around with a 100 to go this

is so important. Canada do not have much tax, they have a 400 metre

hurdler on their final lead. Italy are far too far away. Italy lead,

Jamaica second, Great Britain in third. Christine Ohuruogu has the

bat on. Ohuruogu running now for bronze for Great Britain. Far away

in another land, the battle between the United States and Jamaica with

Allyson Felix and the anchor leg for the United States. Surely Jamaica

have a chance to lead but look at the Gap and it is a gap back to

Christine Ohuruogu and she has been carrying the hopes. She finishes so

strongly that she has the Ukraine and Canada and the Ukrainian with

Zemlyak and Zemlyak did well in the heats. The United States coming home

and Allyson Felix, the wonderful brilliant Allyson Felix going for

gold and going to win old. Jamaica has a silver and behind them

Ohuruogu was holding on. Holding on, holding on to take the bronze.

Ohuruogu didn't panic. She held on. The United States and Jamaica were

always going to be a long way clear and we expected the United States to

win. If Jamaica were the leading into the anchor leg, Allyson Felix

was always going to win. That was a very good run from the British

quartet. Well, what are run from Chris Dean at the end and what a

performance from Emily Diamond. -- Christine. Anyka hung on, gave the

baton the Emily Diamond. She went out hard enough. She let them come

up on the shoulder. The split times, a great solid start on the first leg

from Eilidh. A strong hurdler. At this point already the US and
