Katie Taylor has picked up Ireland's first gold medal of the European Games after a dominant display against France's Estelle Mossley in the lightweight final.

Step forward Michael O'Reilly, who has the chance to make it two in his middleweight final.

O'Reilly fights Azerbaijani Xaybula Musalov. He received a walkthrough in yesterday's semi-final with scheduled opponent Maxim Koptyakov pulling out with a cut sustained in his quarter-final.
