GB's Reece Dunn Takes The Gold | Men's 200m Freestyle S14 Final | Swimming | Tokyo 2020 Paralympics

>> This is the men's 200-metre freestyle - S14 final. You can expect the Australians to get off to a good start and indeed Ricky Betar has. Born in Osaka. He has come up nicely in front. But he's not taking advantage of his position in the pool. It is Catchpole and Dunn. Dunn looking to take the lead at the 50. >> Dunn - a great first 50. Dunn, he needs to attack this 200. The other Australians will come up on him hard. He does want to be outtouched. >> World champion Reece Dunn - world record-holder, Reece Dunn. Will he go close to his own world record? That we will find out in the remaining 100. He is extending his advantage. Off the wall he goes. A hang on here from Ricky Betar. He is good off the wall. So too Bandeira, making his way through the field. He was a little down on a few swimmers but now has put himself up into second already. >> Reece Dunn... And Bandeira we know he can close. He will get that powerful stroke. Dunn into the 1. -- into the 150. >> Bandeira of Brazil is going faster in this stroke. The question is whether or not Dunn has enough speed to keep off the Brazilian. It is a massive battle for bronze. A blanket could be thrown across the swimmers going for bronze T focus is on the world record and whether or not Dunn can hold on. Dunn will get there and in world record time. Bandeira, is beaten after upsetting Dunn in the fly, in the free it is reversed as Dunn outtouches Bandeira. A smashing bronze for Emeliantsev, who came back beautifully after being overtaken by a couple of swimmers in the pool. Reece Dunn has broken his own world record. What a swim. Half a second quicker than he had previously gone. Dunn is congratulated by the medallist alongside him. Emeliantsev takes the bronze here. Catchpole alongside him and Emeliantsev quick to offer their congratulations to the champion who has taken another world record at the same time. Bandeira pulled off his cap. He knows it needed a world record swim to beat him. A 1.52.74 for Bandeira. Bear in mind he would have taken out the world reorder by 0.22 of a second as well. He swam under world record time. He closed impressively fast. He was a full body length behind at the 50 metres to go mark. And touched not even a hand behind. >> Bandeira, but we knew he would close fast. Here is Dunn off the block. He had an excellent start. He took off the first 50. It was controlled but it was very, very fast. He still attacked it. We knew he needed to give himself, as we noticed a body length lead over Bandeira. Reece Dunn popped up here. It is very controlled but the third 50 is where he starts to take it. He needs to get ahead of himself. Here Bandeira, right now, is closing in on Reece Dunn. Dunn puts his head down and surges for the touch pad. >> That is
