Brilliant McKillop claims European Championship crown

Michael McKillop has added another title to his successful career on the track.

McKillop has won the T38 800m title at the IPC Athletics European Championships in Swansea.

The Irishman cruised to a facile win in 1:58.16 ahead of Russian Chermen Kobesov in second and Ukraine's Valentyn Miedviediev in third.

Cork's John McCarthy was fifth in the T51 men's 100m final, won by Finn Toni Piispanen, who also won the 400m final last night where McCarthy was fourth.

Andrew Flynn goes in the T13 5000m final this evening.
