Rio Olympics 2016: Usain Bolt reaches men's 200m final but Justin Gatlin out

Usain Bolt ran his fastest time of the season to win his Olympic 200m semi-final in 19.78 seconds as Justin Gatlin missed out on a place in the final.

Jamaica's Bolt has already won the 100m and is now aiming for an eighth Olympic gold by retaining his 200m title.

But American Gatlin, who won silver behind Bolt in the 100m final, only finished third in his semi-final.

Britain's Adam Gemili reached Thursday's final (02:30 BST, Friday) as one of two fastest losers.

It's a sprint double! 100m champion Elaine Thompson comes off the bend with a decent lead and manages to hold off a fast-finishing Dafne Schippers to take gold!

SHE DIDN'T KNOW SHE HAD WON. How?
