Gillick wins 400m gold

David Gillick out-gunned home favourite David Canale to power home to 400 metres gold tonight in Madrid, and Ireland's first ever male sprint medal at the European Indoor Championships.

The 21-year-old Dubliner - already Scottish champion this year - clocked 46.30 seconds in a barmstorming run, as he out-muscled third-placed Russian Sebastian Gatzka (46.88) on the final bend and overtook blocky Spaniard Canale (46.64) in the closing metres for a famous victory.
