Kenyan-born teenager Yasemin Can sealed a distance double when she won Saturday's 5000m to continue Turkey's astonishing European success.

Can's second gold of the championships in Amsterdam, following her victory in the 10,000m on Wednesday, left Turkey with a record 9 medals with four golds, four silvers and one bronze. The 19-year-old Can, previously known as Vivian Jemutai and who became eligible to represent Turkey in March, had no problems over the 5km race.

She led from the front in a dominant display to come home in 15min 18.15sec, Eritrean-born Swede Meraf Bahta holding off Britain's Steph Twell to take silver. "When I came here, I didn't really expect to win anything. I wanted to come and see if I could get anything at all," Can said.
