Jakob Ingebrigtsen of Norway won gold in the Olympic men's 1,500-meters final, breaking the Games record to upset world champion Timothy Cheruiyot of Kenya who took silver
Ingebrigtsen was the first European winner of the event since Spain's Fermin Cacho in Barcelona in 1992.
The previous mark of 3:31.65 was set by Kenya's Abel Kipsang in Tokyo during the semi-finals on Thursday. Kipsang finished fourth in the final. Cheruiyot, the 2019 world champion and this year's world leader, could not respond to Ingebrigtsen's late move, settling for silver and his first Olympic medal in what has been a challenging road to Tokyo for the Kenyan.
Edinburgh-born Kerr delivered Britain's first men's 1,500m Olympic medal in 33 years, shaving almost three seconds off his personal best.
