Kruse wins fencing silver for GB
Britain's Richard Kruse clinched foil silver in the Senior European Fencing Championships in Izmir, Turkey.

Kruse beat French Olympic champion Brice Guyart in the semi-finals but lost to Germany's Ralf Bissdorf, a Sydney 2000 silver medallist.

It was Britain's first Senior World or European medal since 1965.

Kruse's fellow Briton James Beevers was ninth in the same event, and Louise Bond-Williams made the top 16 in the women's sabre.
