The Swedish gentlemen came in third place on today’s relay. On the way into the rally it was clear that Sweden would end up on the podium, but it was Edvin Angers Spurt that would determine what denomination it was.
It was clear early on that Norway would take a simple gold medal. Therefore, there was a settlement between Sweden and Switzerland about the silver and the bronze. Anger was a clear favorite in that duel, but failed to get past Vaslerio Grond. This reacted the Norwegian ski expert Martin Johnsrud Sundbyin Norwegian VG on.
– He really does everything wrong. He first goes around the last curve down towards the stadium. He knows that it pays to come behind and slide by in the last turn. In addition, he is unable to close the door for Switzerland. He should succeed in getting into the turn first, he said, continuing:
– Then do a bad turn and get poor speed at the rally, but he does not get to the finish either. It annoys me, because the Swiss is arrogant and stretches his arms in the air earlier than he really should. Anger chooses to give up a bit in the middle of the race, and I do not understand that Sweden can be satisfied with it.
According to Express Was there more reactions from the Norwegian newspaper:
“Anger gets crushed. Grond is by far the fastest, and a little nonchalantly the last meters. A little embarrassing for Sweden maybe ”
