    Amy Hunt has it all. The speed, the endurance, the confidence. Now the double.

    Dina Asher-Smith comes and gives Amy her congratulations, but this Amy's stage at the moment. At the pinnacle of her career.

    Two gold medals and we have got the relays to come.

    We had a British one-two in the men's 100m.

    Will we also see multiple British medallists here?

    Dina Asher-Smith will not give this up easily. She is outside Amy Hunt.

    Rhasidat Adeleke ran a sensational bend in the semi-final, but then was a little leggy over the last 50m.

    The runners are being introduced onto the track now.

    Watch out for Spain's Jael Bestue and Rhasidat Adeleke of Ireland. They are most likely to spoil the British party.

    We look at Dina Asher-Smith and she has had so much success at this level. She knows how to perform in finals and she will want this. There is definitely that rivalry between her and Amy Hunt.

    A British one-two-three? It could happen in the women's 200m final.

    Amy Hunt is the newly crowned European 100m champion was quickest in the 200m semi-finals with a time of 22.37 seconds - she considers this to be her best event.

    The Newark athletes is in lane eight here, with only team-mate Dina Asher-Smith outside her. Asher-Smith won this title in 2016 and 2018 and her tally of eight European medals is only bettered by the 10 of Polish ex-sprinter Irena Szewinska.

    British champion Success Eduan (lane 3) also made it through yesterday's semi-finals as a non-automatic qualifier, so the host nation have this year’s three quickest Europeans in the final.

    Great Britain have only twice swept the podium at a European Championships: the men’s 800m in 1986 (Steve Cram won bronze) and the men’s 200m in 1998. The only women’s 1-2 came in the 1950 high jump.

    The main threat to the Brits could come from Ireland’s 2024 European 400m silver medallist Rhasidat Adeleke. Hamstring injuries this year have thwarted her one-lap plans but the 23-year-old’s raw speed was evident as she won her semi-final in 22.43.

    Great Britain's Ben Pattison, speaking to BBC Sport: "Gutted. A great opportunity today to add to my medal collection. I gave myself too much work to do, and the legs weren't there. Just disappointed.

    "Gutted. He was weaving in and out, but my fault for being in that position. I know on my day I can have a quick last 100m, but today that wasn't there. I cannot expect any more than running how I did."

    Ben Pattison put himself into the right position on the back straight, but then he dove inside again. Mark English throughout deserves that.

    Gutsy and Marino Bloudek must have decided that once Max Burgin wasn't there, he decided his plan was to attack hard - English responded instantly.

    A sensational story!

    Mark English, at 33 years of age, smokes the field on the final 100m to win gold. He looks astonished by what he has achieved.

    The unheralded Marino Bloudek of Croatia claims silver, bronze goes to Spain's Mohamed Attaoui.

    Ireland's Mark English has a great back story. A qualified doctor, he is six years older than any of his competitors in this field.

    But he broke the nearly 50-year-old championship record in the semi, and is backed by a large Irish support in Birmingham tonight.
