Great Britain topped the athletics medal table in Berlin by bringing down the roof on the final day of the European Championships with Dina Asher-Smith clinching a hat-trick of gold’s in Berlin.
The 22-year-old took the baton to sprint across the line and claim a third gold of the competition, only hours after Laura Muir topped the podium in the women’s 1500m.
The men’s 4x100m set off fireworks with the final act of the 2018 European Championships by winning a third European Championship gold in successive tournaments.
Elsewhere, Eilish McColgan followed in the footsteps of her Olympic silver medal winning mother Liz to claim silver in the 5000m.
Laura Weightman also took bronze behind Laura Muir in the 1500m.
Earlier in the day, Britain’s gymnasts continued their success at the SSE Hydro with
Dominick Cunningham taking gold in the men’s floor and Courtney Tulloch winning bronze on the rings.
Finally, Britain’s golfing pair Michele Thomson and Meghan MacLaren won bronze in the inaugural European Gold Championships.
After an incredible eleven days of sport, Britain finished second in the medal table – winning 74 medals, including 26 golds, 24 silvers and 22 bronze medals.
Dina Asher-Smith could hardly believe it when she sprinted to gold on the anchor leg of the women’s 4x100m to claim a third gold medal in Berlin.
The 100m and 200m champion had work to do heading into the final changeover, but nothing was stopping the 22-year-old from charging to gold inside 41.88s.
