Team GB's Charlie Attwood misses out on 50m breaststroke final

British swimmer Charlie Attwood misses out on the men's 50m breaststroke final after finishing ninth in the semi-finals.

Charlie Attwood has just missed out at a chance of swimming in the 50m breaststroke final after finishing ninth overall in the two semi-finals.

Attwood finished fourth in the first semi-final, with winner Andrius Sidlauskas of Lithuania setting a new Games record with his time of 27.75s.

Croatia's Nikola Obrovac and Deniss Komars of Latvia finished second and third respectively.

His fourth-place finish was not enough though after five swimmers in the second semi-final swam a quicker time than Attwood's 28.55s.

Attwood, 17, finished fourth in the 200m breaststroke final yesterday and is still due to race in the 100m breaststroke and the 4x100m medley.
