Uganda's Moses Kipsiro reveals that a knee problem nearly forced him out of the Commonwealth Games before his victory in the 10,000m.

Uganda's Moses Kipsiro has revealed that he was considering pulling out of the 10,000m before his victory at the Commonwealth Games.

The 27-year-old successfully defended his title in a thrilling race inside Hampden Park, but he claims that a knee problem almost caused him to abandon his plans to compete in Glasgow.

"I've been having a lot of injuries so my knee was very painful," Kipsiro BBC Sport. "I said I wasn't going to take part but something deep inside said 'you can make it'. I stuck to it and now I'm really happy."

Kenya's Josphat Bett finished second, with Cameron Levins of Canada claiming bronze.
