Great Britain's Noah Williams and Kyle Kothari reached the final of the 10m platform diving competition at the Paris Olympics.

Williams, seeking to add to the silver he won earlier in the Games alongside Tom Daley in the 10m synchro event, scraped into the final in 12th place, just 0.25 ahead of the next competitor - Italy's Riccardo Giovannini, who did not make the cut.

Kothari, appearing in his first Olympics, qualified in sixth place after recovering from a low-scoring second dive.

The final is at 14:00 BST on Saturday.
