New Zealand's Ellesse Andrews wins track sprint gold

New Zealand's Ellesse Andrews completed an incredible week with gold in the women's sprint at the National Velodrome on Sunday.

Andrews outclassed Germany's Lea Freidrich in the final, winning 2-0, to become the first woman from New Zealand to win the discipline at the Olympics.

The 24-year-old also won the keirin on Thursday to deliver New Zealand's first Olympic track cycling gold for 20 years, having already earned a silver in the team sprint.

Britain's sprint world champion Emma Finucane beat Dutch rider Hetty van de Wouw to take the bronze -- the 21-year-old's third medal from her Games debut.

Finucane was the favourite going into the final day but was well-beaten by Andrews in the semifinals.
