ICE HOCKEY
Great Britain's hopes of winning a second successive
World Championship bronze medal were dashed following a 2-1 defeat by
Poland. Britain claimed third place in Poland last year - their first
medal for eight years - and seemed set for another bronze only to be
denied on the final day of their Division One Group B campaign.
JUDO
Euan Burton claimed Great Britain's first medal at the
European Judo Championships in Vienna when he secured the third
bronze of his career. Burton received a bye in the first round of the
-81kg competition and won his first fight against Arutyun Sarkisyan
after the Ukrainian was penalised three times. |
