ROME — Jakob Ingebrigtsen became the most successful male European athlete in Rome on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila), while Armand 'Mondo' Duplantis won his third pole vault title and Marcell Jacobs set the crowd alight with a second gold as part of the Italian relay team.

In a high-octane night of track and field featuring some of the leading competitors on the global stage, the large crowd at the Stadio Olimpico was treated to some sterling performances.
