Tour de France stage 4: Tadej Pogačar outduels Mathieu van der Poel and Jonas Vingegaard on hotly-contested sprint finish in Rouen

Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) sprinted to the 100th victory of his career on stage 4 of the Tour de France, outpacing race leader Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) to the line at the end of the uphill drag into Rouen.

Following a similar showdown on stage 2 in Boulogne-sur-Mer, the pair went head-to-head once again on the 5% slope to the line, with Van der Poel launching the sprint before the World Champion came around the outside to nip through and take the win with a sharp finishing acceleration.
