[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Unbelievable

 

[Thunder Bolt]

He ran a brilliant race, tactically and speed wise.

And it was SOOOO exciting!!!!

 

[Thunder Bolt]

And it was SOOOO exciting!!!!

Yep! I was shouting at the tv.

 

[ManOfSussex]

That had me on my feet shouting as he won.

 

[banjo]

Legend.

 

[mylesfdo]

Absolute LEGEND!! Surely best British athlete ever?

 

[big nuts]

Just worked out his average mile pace was 4:19 so just under 65 seconds per lap that's quite incredible.

Our greatest ever athlete and possibly ever sportsman.

 

[Frutos]

He has now won the second most gold medals in World Championship history - ahead of the likes of Kenenisa Bekele, Sergei Bubka and Michael Johnson, and behind only Usain Bolt.

Phenomenal stuff.

 

[vegster]

Amazing performance as usual, was a bit concerned about 400-500 M out when he got baulked at least a couple of times by rival runners which was not that sporting.

 

[Normal Rob]

He is amazing, but I never thought the result was in doubt. He was in total control from the first lap to the last. It was great.

 

[Ernest]

One of the ones in red should have took one for the team and tripped him up leaving his mate to win

 

[Commander]

He's the only person that has ever made me even consider watching athletics. He is a machine.

Why don't we produce footballers like him? Hugely talented, incredibly hardworking, and extremely likeable.

Er, but it didn't work this time.

You sure know how to engage in sporting competition . . . . but . . . I was thinking, were I a man in a red shirt, well . . . . .

 

[AmexRuislip]

It reminded me of the days when Ovett and Coe used to battle the running track, good on him.

You serious ?

Edwards ? Redgrave ? Holmes etc ? Brilliant athletics

 

[BNthree]

Great to watch and fantastic to see him want to celebrate with his kids. The look of unadulterated joy on his face as he got on the podium is wonderful.

 

[ManOfSussex]

I thought he was going to take a tumble. Heart in mouth time when he went off the track.

Yeah. I've never liked athletics, always found it boring. But there's something about him that makes me want to watch it.
