Kellie Harrington books European final spot against Katie Taylor’s old foe

Kellie Harrington has booked her place in the European Games final.

The lightweight world champion stormed into the decider in Minsk with a unanimous decision over Sweden's Agnes Alexiusson and she has set up a hell of a fight on Sunday. Mira Potkonen awaits the Dubliner in the bout for gold but her win on Friday guarantees her at least a silver and means yet more honours for the Irish fighters.
