GB gold medallist @NethaneelMB talks us through what it takes to beat Usain Bolt.

Nethaneel Mitchell-Blake has revealed how Great Britain overcame Usain Bolt to clinch 4x100m relay gold at the World Athletics Championship.

Mitchell-Blake ran the anchor leg on an historic occasion at the London Stadium last month as Great Britain won their first sprinting men's gold since the 2004 Olympics.

The night also marked the final race in the career of Jamaican sprinting legend Bolt, who pulled up on the home straight injured as Mitchell-Blake lead Britain to glory.
