Rich, Tom Bosworth and Sikhalo from Activate the Burners react to day three at the Alexander Stadium. In the stadium that’s helped shape him as one of the best 400m in the world, Wolverhampton’s Matt Hudson-Smith shrugged off having a stand named after him and the expectation of a home crowd o win a third European gold in Birmingham.
There’s a look back at Emily Newnham’s silver in the 400m hurdles, the men’s 110m hurdles final, and loads more - on a night where other events tried to eclipse the athletics 😉
