Team GB's Luke Davies second in 200m breaststroke heats at European Games

Team GB's Luke Davies and Charlie Attwood comfortably make the semis in the 200m breaststroke heats in Baku.

Great Britain's Luke Davies clocked the second-fastest time of the 200m breaststroke heats at the European Games this morning.

Davies's time of 2:12.75 ensured safe passage into the semi-finals, after finishing behind the Russian Federation's Anton Chupkov (2:11.52).

Team GB's Charlie Attwood also qualified, finishing second in his heat with a time of 2:14.78.

Russia dominated proceedings with four of the top five fastest swimmers, but only two from each nation are allowed through to the next round.

This means that Attwood is fourth-fastest going into the semis, which will take place in the Baku Aquatics Centre later this afternoon.
