HEADED into day five\u00a0of finals at the European Championships, most focused their attention on Gregorio Paltrinieri&#8217;s pursuit of a distance sweep in the men&#8217;s 800 and Sarah Sjostrom&#8217;s quest for a world record in the 100 fly. However, young British breaststroker Adam Peaty stole the show, setting his first career world record in the semi-finals of the men&#8217;s 50 breast.

He also broke his own European record of 26.78 set in winning the Commonwealth title last month.
