Biathlon: Swedish Joy message: Elvira Öberg back in training

See Johannes Lukas tell us about Elvira Öberg and the location in the World Cup squad in the player above.

With just over two weeks left for the World Cup, Elvira Öberg was hit by a cold that made her unable to train. The charge for the championship was therefore anything but optimal.

– I will not be able to have the usual preparations. In the first position I want to be healthy, Öberg has previously said.

But now, with a little more than a week until the biathlon party starts, the World Cup jump is back. In an interview with SVT Sport, Johannes Lukas says that the 25-year-old trained with the rest of the squad on Monday.

– We have put a wise and clear arrangement for Elvira so it feels very nice, says the head coach.

“Special situation”

Lukas also says that Sebastian Samuelsson missed a few days of training, but that he too is back when the national team is now gathered in Austria for training camps.

– It is a special situation, there are high expectations on the team. We can now charge with full squad last week before the World Cup.

SVT broadcasts the biathlon World Cup, which will start on Wednesday next week in Swiss Lenzerheide.
