South Africa's Mbulaeni Mulaudzi and Hezekiel Sepeng last night qualified for the finals of the 800 metres in Athens. Main picture: Mulaudzi finishes second in his semi-final behind Algeria's Djabir Said Guerni (1023) with Spain's Antonio Manuel Reina (1618) third. Below: Sepeng finishes fourth behind Kenya's Wilfred Bungei (2333), Russia's Yuriy Borzakovskiy (2860) and Morocco's Mouhssin Chehibi. Only the first two finishers in each semi-final qualified automatically, but Sepeng moved through to the finals as one of the fastest losers. (AP)
