Adam Gemili "heartbroken" after missing out on bronze

Great Britain's Adam Gemili has admitted that he is "gutted" to have missed out on claiming a medal in the men's 200m final.

Gemili clocked the same time as third-placed Christophe Lemaitre but he was relegated to fourth position by three thousandths of a second.

The 22-year-old told BBC Sport: "I am heartbroken. I put so much into that run. I lost my form at the end and to get so close at the end is heartbreaking. I am absolutely gutted. I was in the inside, I knew Bolt would go and a lot of others would try and go with him.

"Myself and my coach had said beforehand to let them go and save some energy. I did but I lost some form at the end but it has been a fantastic season. I have had such fantastic support but I am gutted I could not bring home a medal for Team GB."

Usain Bolt claimed his third Olympic gold medal in the event while Canada's Andre De Grasse finished in second.
