Men's 5000m Final - 1988 Seoul Olympics Track & Field

[@paulwilliams8389]

Felt so sorry for Castro. He was the only man in the field who made any attempt to catch Ngugi and ended up being run out of the medals.

Ngugi the legend!!!

[@simonhindley65]

Incredibly poor coverage. Two ad breaks during a 5000m, seriously? You don't get that on the BBC.

Greed for money has no bounds, that's why

[@hyperthreaded]

Viewers are gonna hate every brand that comes up during those ad breaks lol

[@marknorris1381]

Worst coverage of this race. Go to ads while Ngugi puts in two killer laps to break up the field.

[@jamesmbogo7186]

Insane finishing power

[@englishman1960]

Baumann went on to win it four years later.

[@johnstirling6597]

juiced up!

[@Ruda-n4h]

Tremendous bravery from Ngugi but heartbreak for Castro, beaten by two suspect Germans although he said some uncharitable things about Ngugi before the race.

Viewers are gonna hate every brand that comes up during those commercial breaks

Ngugi's running tactic was very unique!

[@YesSirYesSir3bagsFULL]

No it wasn’t. That was the Kenyan tactic for the 80s era. Throw the hammer down and then maintain

[@christopherdevine2811]

Why they say Keen Yah back then?

[@jurgenthomas5993]

Poor Domingos Castro.....
