It took the first visit to the range for the lead to change as Gulyas went into the lead, with Clouvel taking fourteen attempts.

The other semi final was something of a classic, Germany winning 3-2 despite India creating a greater number of chances.

On the final lap, Beaugrand would slowly attack, getting a bit of distance from the rest of the group,

It was gold as Yucheng could not get anywhere near the required score meaning China missed out on the medals.

Pidcock took an aggressive line on the inside and the two almost tangled but Pidcock would stay on his bike and win an incredible gold.

206 countries are competing in the Paris Olympics. Some nations will expect to take home 100 medals whilst others will be happy with one.

Keirin is the sprint event that most lends itself to a shock. It showed itself to be a hard track to overtake with its long turns.

The hope is probably a final between Jones and Zongshi. Zongshi has been dominant especially in 2022

Germany has a particular hold over this event, having won nine of the last ten renewals and eleven of the last thirteen World Championships.

Joe Clarke (Great Britain) will enter the inaugural running of this event as favourite. He is the triple reigning world champion

Egypt, Hungary and South Korea all have two potential contenders whilst Prades can surely do well at home.

Netherlands have dominated, winning three of the last four, losing the other by penalty shootout and winning the last three World Cups.

This should be really good. The eight names that make the final will really deserve it and it should be eight really competitive names

South Korea has won five of the last six Olympic competitions. They have the most strength in depth

Perhaps their own challenge is against history and the legacy that this team creates moving forward. 

France will line up with strong chances here in the form of the last two world champions. Dorian Coninx (France) won the title in 2023.

China has dominated this event, medalling in the last four Olympics. Their leading candidate is Langyu Yan (China)

The Chinese pair do have the pedigree but I feel this will be the synchronised event where they are run closest.
