Great Britain narrowly missed out on two medals on the final day of the Track World Cup in Cali.

The women's team pursuit quartet finished fifth, missing out on the bronze medal race by 0.3 seconds, before Neah Evans came fourth in the points race.

Evans, Emily Kay, Emily Nelson and Manon Lloyd recorded a time of four minutes 28.548 seconds in the team pursuit - over three seconds faster than the time they managed in their first run on Saturday.

But it was not enough to top France, who posted 4:28.252, and claim a place in the bronze medal race, which was won by Canada. Australia beat Italy to win gold.

Scotland's Evans then finished fourth in the points race, as Australia's Amy Cure took gold ahead of America's Sarah Hammer and Simona Frapporti of Italy.
