PARIS, Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- Norway's Jakob Ingebrigtsen lived up to his pre-race favoritism by clinching gold in the men's 5,000m at the Paris Olympics on Saturday.

The 23-year-old reigning world champion broke away from the leading pack with 200m remaining to charge home in a season best time of 13 minutes, 13.66 seconds.

Kenya's Ronald Kwemoi took silver in 13:15.04, and American Grant Fisher seized bronze in 13:15.13. Enditem
