"Does anyone have enough to test Mo Farah? He is controlling this race."

Dave Perkins, external: Beautiful technique by Greg Rutherford again in the third round. Would love to see him extend his British record.

Pedestrian is how Brendan Foster describes the pace in the men's 5,000m. It's like a lazy Sunday stroll. Five laps remain and Mo Farah is in front alongside his team-mate Andy Vernon.

Greg Rutherford has been unable to improve on his 8.27m second-round jump but is still in gold medal position. Briton JJ Jegede has slipped to seventh spot.

On the early stages of the men's 5,000m: "You would have thought, because Mo Farah has had that illness, someone would think about stretching and testing him here. But they don't seem to want to. Mo seems to mesmerize them."

It was at the European Championships in Barcelona four years ago that Mo Farah's path to long-distance glory began. "This is where it started and you can't forget where you started," said Farah, who is aiming to match his 5,000m and 10,000m golden feats of 2010.

Can anyone challenge the Brit? Frenchman Bouabdellah Tahri and Belgium's Bashir Abdi will try.

"After his silver medal, Andy Vernon is going into the 5,000m race against Mo Farah for the first time thinking 'how can I beat him?'"

It's the Mo Show. Mo Farah is bouncing on the track like a boxer getting ready for a bout. The Olympic and world champion, hot favourite to complete the double double, looks relaxed. We're seconds away from the off.

"What a story. Antje Moldner-Schmidt recovered from cancer and came back a couple of months later. She was seventh at the Olympic Games in London. Here she took the last hurdle like a 400m hurdle and strode away, looking strong and comfortable. It is an inspirational victory with a great story behind it."

Charlotta Fougbert (9:30.16) won silver and a personal best 9:30.70 secured bronze for Spain's Diana Martin.

Charlotta Fouberg stumbles on landing after the final barrier and Germany's Antje Moldner-Schmidt takes advantage, overtaking the Swede with 30m remaining to win an emotional gold in a season's best 9:29.43.

Brendan McCullagh, external: Possibly one of the finest Euros ever - quality, excitement, controversy ... it has it all.

James Carey, external: European Athletics on the TV, TMS on the radio and Premier League on the live text. Sport overload!

Anna, external: How about Manchester's Mad Ferret in the mascot debate? Certainly has the best name!

Favourite Christina Schwanitz is waving a German flag in the air after winning shot put gold with a 19.90m throw.

Russia's Yevgeniya Kolodko produced a season's best 19.39m for silver and Hungary's Anita Marton broke the national record with a bronze medal-winning 19.04m throw.

The next event on the track is the women's steeplechase final and this race is expected to be a Scandinavian ding-dong between Charlotta Fouberg and Sandra Eriksson.

Sweden's Fouberg already owns a gold medal for confidence, saying ahead of these championships: "I think I can win gold and if I say I'm going to do something I normally do it."

What a few weeks for Matthew Hudson-Smith, who follows silver in the 400m with gold in the relay and tells BBC One: "I can't believe what's happened. I just can't. It's been a hell of a journey. I'm enjoying it and it's fun."

Delighted relay team-mate Michael Bingham adds: "When Matthew first came into the team we were trying to make sure the environment was good for him. But what he did was chilled the whole environment out and that allowed us to keep the same camaraderie between the team - and win gold."

Greg Rutherford is on the runway - what can the Olympic champion produce? A leap of 7.95m into a headwind. A nerve settler for the 27-year-old.

On the men's gold-medal winning 4x400m relay team: "They believe in each other and run for each other. When you have that camaraderie in the warm-up area it puts you in a good place before you even start.

"Martyn Rooney knew his other team members had worked hard to put him in that winning position. It was a great performance, rewarded with another gold medal and a good time."
