Great Britain have won their eighth medal of the European Games, thanks to Lutalo Muhammad's bronze in the men's 80kg.

Muhammad suffered a shock defeat in the quarter-finals this morning, but he recovered to beat Serbia's Fejzic Damir in the repechage.

Muhammad prevailed 8-7 on points, despite trailing 2-1 after the second round.

However, he hit back strongly to win the third round 7-5 thanks largely to an offensive head-kick, which scored three points.
