Track cycling: Harrie Lavreysen wins men’s keirin gold
Great Britain have won the last four men’s keirin gold medals. Can Jack Carlin continue the streak?
He’s one of the six finalists, alongside another hot favourite, Netherlands’ Harrie Lavreysen, Australia’s Matthew Richardson and Matt Glaetzer, Malaysia’s Muhammad Shahrom, and Japan’s Nakano Shinji.
Six laps of this track, three behind a motorised derny that will get them up to speed.
The derny pulls off without a move behind yet. It’s a very early attack as the derny moves aside from Glaetzer.
Carlin can’t latch on to Lavreysen.
Here goes Lavreysen! Richardson is with him! Big crash behind takes out three riders and Glaetzer, who was back in sixth, comes through!
But gold to Harrie Lavreysen who completes his domination of the velodrome!
Australia two-three for Richardson and Glaetzer.
