Frenchmen Mahiedine Mekhissi-Benabbad and Bouabdellah Tahri took the gold and silver medals, respectively. The initial bronze medallist José Luis Blanco was later stripped of his medal as he had given a positive drugs test at the Spanish championships in July. Ion Luchianov of Moldova was elevated to the bronze medal.
