Team GB's Jade Jones holds on to reach taekwondo final at European Games

Team GB's Jade Jones holds on to reach the taekwondo -57kg final after victory over Sweden's Nikita Glasnovic at the European Games.

Great Britain's Jade Jones has advanced to the taekwondo -57kg final after an enthralling victory at the European Games.

The London 2012 gold medallist was severely tested against Sweden's Nikita Glasnovic, but battled to a 7-6 victory in the semi-final.

Jones had led 7-1 going into the final round, but a spirited fightback from Glasnovic made for a nervy finish.

Jones will face Croatia's Ana Zaninovic, who beat Eva Calmo Gomez 7-5, in the final later this afternoon.
