Kellie Harrington Goes For Gold At Tokyo Games

Celebrations are underway in Dublin’s north inner city as boxer Kellie Harrington has secured at least a silver medal at the Olympics.

The 31 year old beat Thailand’s Sudaporn Seesondee by split decision in the lightweight semi-final this morning.

She’s now through to the Olympic final on Sunday, where she will fight Brazil’s Beatriz Ferreira.

Family, friends and neighbours were all up early in Portland Row to catch their local hero in action.
