Jason Kenny beats Peter Lewis to set up velodrome final

Kenny beats Lewis to set up final

England cyclist Jason Kenny will challenge Sam Webster for a gold medal in the men's sprint final after beating Peter Lewis at the Chris Hoy Velodrome.

Kenny had to come from behind in order to make the final after Lewis drew first blood by winning the first race in their best-of-three affair this afternoon.

However, the Bolton-born rider levelled up the semi, before easing into the final with a run-away win in the deciding race to book a meeting with New Zealand's Webster later on today.
