In a surprising twist during the men’s 5,000 meters heat, Team GB star George Mills found himself at the center of a dramatic incident.
Mills, who is the son of former Premier League midfielder Danny Mills, was competing in the final lap when he was tripped.
He was positioned in the middle of the pack when he suddenly collided with one of his rivals and fell to the track.
Despite the fall, Mills managed to finish the race. However, his frustration was evident as he immediately confronted France’s Hugo Hay, pushing him in anger.
Replays of the incident suggested that Hay had shoved Mills, causing him to stumble into the path of other runners and eventually fall.
