Matej Mohoric won stage 19 of the Tour de France in a photo finish at the end of a furious day's racing in the Jura.

Mohoric and Thursday's winner Kasper Asgreen came to the line neck and neck, with Ben O'Connor third, after the trio broke away from a 37-strong breakaway when it broke into several pieces on the final climb some 30 kilometres from the end of the 173km stage from Moirans-en-Montagne to Poligny.
