After the finish, a fight broke out between Mills and the Frenchman Hugo Hay.
Earlier during the Olympics, Sweden filed a protest against Mills in the 1500 meter trials. The reason? The Britten pushed forward in an “unpolite” manner, according to the protest.
Narve Gilje Nordås won the trial heat and is ready for the final. In the second heat, his compatriot, Jakob Ingebrigtsen, also advanced.
The final of 5000 meters is on Saturday.
