Great Britain win bronze in men's 4x400m relay final at London 2017

Great Britain finished the World Athletics Championships with six medals as the men's 4x400m relay team took bronze in Sunday's final.

The squad, Matthew Hudson-Smith, Martyn Rooney, Rabah Yousif and Dwayne Cowan, clocked a season's best of two minutes 59 seconds behind winners Trinidad and Tobago and second-placed the United States.

Trinidad and Tobago denied the US a seventh successive world 4x400 metres relay title when Lalonde Gordon overhauled Fred Kerley on the final straight.

The U.S led for most of the race and appeared to be on course for another win after Michael Cherry ran a strong third lap to extend their lead before handing the baton to Kerley.

But Gordon gave chase and ran a superb final lap for the Caribbean islands, catching the American on the home straight to give Trinidad their first world title in this event and add to the list of upsets at the championships.

It was just reward for Lalonde who was part of the Trinidad team which took bronze on the same track at the London Olympics five years ago and won silver at the Beijing World Championships in 2015.

Jereem Richards, bronze medallist in the 200 metres, and Machel Cedenio also kept them in contention in the second and third legs as Trinidad claimed their first and only gold of the championships.
