Commonwealth Games: Owen Boxall wins bronze in men's -105kg weightlifting

Boxall improved on his fourth place from Glasgow 2014 where he lifted a total of 331kg

Owen Boxall won England's fifth weightlifting medal of the 2018 Commonwealth Games with bronze in the men's -105kg on day five.

The 27-year-old looked to be heading out of contention before lifting 152kg on his final snatch to sit tied for second place at the halfway stage.

Boxall clean and jerked 199kg to post 351kg and improve on fourth in Glasgow.

"It wasn't great at the start but I went for it in the clean and jerk. I'm very satisfied. Ecstatic," he sad.

"My strength is the snatch, but it didn't go so well for me today. For the first one I just wasn't strong and I went a bit soft in my arms, which isn't good."

Samoa's Sanele Mao took gold with a total of 360kg to win his country's fourth ever Commonwealth gold.

India's Pardeep Singh took silver, as defending champion David Katoatau of Kiribati finished fifth after only managing 140kg in the snatch.

Wales' Jordan Sakkas came seventh, while Zachary Courtney of Scotland was forced to withdraw after the snatch.
