    Emma Finucane, Sophie Capewell and Katy Marchant started how they would go on at the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines velodrome by shaving 0.15 seconds off the previous world record in qualifying.

    In hot, fast conditions, that time tumbled further, with first Germany, then New Zealand eclipsing it, before Finucane, Capewell and Marchant brought it back into British hands in 45.338 secs to secure their place in the gold-medal race.

    Against New Zealand they trailed after the first lap but, roared on by the huge number of British fans inside the velodrome, they turned the tide as Finucane crossed the finish line 0.473 secs ahead of Ellesse Andrews on the opposite side of the track.

    Earlier, Germany beat the Netherlands to bronze.

    More medals are on the horizon, with 21-year-old Finucane - seen as the next sprinting superstar - set to contest both the keirin and the individual sprint, the event in which she is the world champion.

    Capewell, 25, is due to also race in the individual sprint, while Marchant - a bronze medallist from Rio 2016 - will contest the keirin.

    It appeared to take a while for the emotions to sink in for Hodgkinson, and she followed her victory with an emotional lap of honour where she posed for photos and signed autographs with the crowd, the British flag draped over her shoulders and a crown on her head.

    There were tears from her coach Trevor Painter, while footage showed her friends and members of Leigh Harriers, her home club, going wild back in the UK.

    "I just can't believe I've finally done it," said a beaming Hodgkinson. "I'm the Olympic champion for the next four years and nobody can ever take that away from me."

    Let's start at the Stade de France, where Great Britain's Keely Hodgkinson dominated the Olympic 800m final to win gold in Paris and end her wait for a global title.

    The 22-year-old had finished second at successive World Championships after claiming a stunning silver on her Olympic debut as a teenager in Tokyo three years ago.

    But Hodgkinson put that series of near-misses on the sport's biggest stages behind her as she took charge of the final and would not relent as Kenyan rival Mary Moraa threatened to pass on the outside.

    Crossing the line in one minute 56.72 seconds, Hodgkinson could not hide her emotion as the magnitude of her achievement struck - having matched Kelly Holmes' 800m gold in Athens 20 years ago.
