final

Date: September 26, 1988

All three Kenyans, two Japanese, two Mexicans and two French had qualified for the final. The field was completed by one participant each from the GDR, Bulgaria, Ecuador, Italy, Morocco, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, the USA and Great Britain.

There was no definite favorite in the final race. The Italian Salvatore Antibo was the first to take the initiative and pulled away on the first two laps. But he slowed so that the pursuers could catch up again. In the sixth lap, Antibo increased the pace again, but this time he had companions: the Kenyans Moses Tanui and Kipkemboi Kimeli as well as the Moroccan Brahim Boutayeb followed him. Halfway through the track - 13: 35.32 min - the race was so fast, mainly thanks to the high speed on the third kilometer, that a new world record was even possible. But then the pace slowed a little. At 7000 meters, Boutayeb started again and broke away from the other three from the lead group. At 9000 meters he had run out a lead of about 25 meters. Kimeli had also moved slightly behind Boutayeb and Tanui had fallen behind. With two laps to go, Antibo was about five meters behind Kimeli. At the top, Brahim Boutayeb could not take away the Olympic victory and set a new Olympic record with 27: 21.46 minutes . Behind them, Salvatore Antibo released the last of his strength, sprinted over Kipkemboi Kimeli and won the silver medal. More than ten seconds back, the Frenchman Jean-Louis Prianon took fourth place, the Mexican Arturo Barrios was fifth ahead of Hansjörg Kunze from the GDR, who five days later won the bronze medal over 5000 meters .

Brahim Boutayeb ran the first Moroccan Olympic victory over 10,000 meters .
