Britain's Mo Farah claimed his second gold medal of the Rio Olympics by winning the 5,000 metres title.
The 33-year-old finished in 13 minutes 3.30 seconds to beat Hagos Gebrhiwet of Ethiopia by just over a second here on Saturday, reports Xinhua.
Bernard Lagat of the United States took bronze, clocking his best timing of the season at 13:06.78.
