Nigeria's Ezekiel Nathaniel delivered a commendable performance at the London Diamond League, finishing fourth in the men's 400 metres hurdles with a time of 48.30 seconds, BSNSports.com.ng reports. 

Nathaniel competed against a world-class field but narrowly missed out on a place on the podium after another solid outing on the Diamond League circuit.

World record holder Karsten Warholm of Norway produced a sensational performance to win the race in a meeting record time of 46.61 seconds.

Germany's Emil Agyekum claimed second place in 47.45 seconds, while Qatar's Abderrahman Samba finished third with a time of 48.10 seconds.

Nathaniel's fourth-place finish continues his encouraging run against some of the world's best 400m hurdlers as he builds momentum for the major championships later this season.
