    England's Orie into gold medal boutpublished at 21:46 British Summer Time 6 August 2022

    Men's super-heavyweight semi-finals

    Local hero Delicious Orie dances around the ring - this time after the bell - with his arms in the air.

    Party time in the NEC!

    He knows he's won. So too do the crowd.

    All we need is the official confirmation... here it comes.

    The volume somehow goes up another notch. There should be signs saying hearing protection is required.

    Stunning stuff from Orie, who will fight for the gold medal tomorrow.

    Women's 200m final

    Can anyone stop Elaine Thompson-Herah?

    The Jamaican has already claimed one gold in Birmingham, triumphing in the 100m a few days ago in just 10.95secs.

    Thompson-Herah had a huge 2021, peaking at the Tokyo Olympics when she became the first woman to win successive 100m and 200m gold.

    She won silver four years ago behind Shaune Miller-Uibo, who has opted not to compete over the distance this year, while world champion Shericka Jackson is also sitting the event out.

    Scotland's Beth Dobbin is also in action, as is Namibia's Olympic silver medallist Christine Mboma.

    Oh so close!!

    England's Harry Coppell is so, so close at clearing 5.65m on his first go, but just flicks the bar as he goes over!

    "I wouldn't mind seeing that," is Coppell's reaction as current leader Kurtis Marschall indicates just how close he was to leaping into the lead.

    Orie used to be a basketball player and it shows in the footwork.

    The hands aren't bad either.

    Mau'u can't get near him for most of the second round, taking hits and tiring as the clock ticks down.

    Another round for England's Orie.

    But, as we know, things can change very quickly in the super-heavyweight world.

    One big punch and it could be game over.

    "Don't you dare give him a shot," says Orie's corner.

    Something big needed from the hosts now if they're going to reach their first Commonwealth hockey final.

    The pair get wrapped up early doors as they feel out each other's range.

    Orie's jab was superb in the quarter-finals and is again using his lead left hand to good effect.

    Short and straight could be the key for Orie here.

    Mau'u, who is shorter and stocky, lands good upper cut to the body, but reckon Orie will edge this on the cards.

    Things have got a bit feisty as both sides seek a winner in the final quarter of the hockey semi-final.

    Two players fall flat on the floor after a collision and the crowd chants 'off, off, off'.

    There are definitely some football fans in. There's been a fairly regular chant of 'Are you Norwich in disguise?' aimed at Australia.

    Nothing comes of the collision in the end and, unsurprisingly, the fans don't like that.

I just had to focus and run my race. I messed up my stride pattern on the back straight but I thought if you stay in this you have got this.

    "The crowd just drove me to the line. I have not processed this. I can't believe it.

    "I am so proud to come from Guernsey to put the country on the map was my dream.

    "It is going to be a great celebration, hopefully a statue or something."

    Not only does Delicious Orie have an eye-catching name, he has the talent to match.

    His backstory is also worth reading about.

    The 25-year-old, who is of mixed Russian and Nigerian heritage, was born in Moscow before moving to England aged seven as the family looked to escape the racism they were suffering in Russia.

    Orie moved to Wolverhampton with his family and went on to study at Birmingham’s Aston University where he received a first class Economics degree.

    "I was born in Moscow and life was harder out there," Orie told BBC Sport last year.

    "We didn't have a lot of money and some people didn't like me purely because of the colour of my skin.

    "I was seven when we moved to the UK and although it was difficult because I didn't speak the language and there were cultural differences, I could see there were more opportunities for kids to succeed."
