Athletics: Vicaut takes 60m crown in photo-finish

French sprinter Jimmy Vicaut clinched the European indoor men's 60m title on Saturday, taking the gold medal after a photo-finish with Britain's James Dasaolu. Both men clocked 6.48sec, the best time in the world this season, but the Frenchman got the nod with Italy's Michael Tumi taking bronze in 6.52sec. "I don't know what to say. I didn't understand what happened. I crossed the line, looked for the result and nothing," said the 21-year-old. "Then I saw my name and I was very happy."
