According to SVT expert Björn Ferry, Martin Ponsiluoma is one of Sweden’s three fastest cross-country skiers, even though he is a biathlon.
It gets Edvin to go to the ceiling.
– I think there is an incredible amount of talk from those biathlons without showing anything, he says.
Although it did not lead to any medals during the biathlon World Cup in Lenzerheide has Martin Ponsiluoma29, praised for their skiing. SVT’s expert Björn Ferry46, said during Wednesday’s distance race that “Ponsi” is probably one of Sweden’s three fastest skiers on the men’s side and that “very few could beat him”.
Edvin Anger’s attack on the biathlon
When the cross -country team star Edvin Anger22, found out what Ferry said about Ponsiluoma, he roared up properly. It was during a digital press conference with both Swedish and Norwegian media, where the Sports Bible attended, which indicates then attacked the biathlon lords.
– I think there is an incredible amount of talk from those biathlons without showing anything. For me, they are happy to show something without talking. They are extremely good at talking. I don’t know if it is because they are jealous or that they believe a lot. It’s hard to say, he says.

He urges the gentlemen, and especially Ponsiluoma, to accompany him and compete at some point. So that he can prove that the cross -country skiers are superior.
– They are happy to start proven something. They can follow on some passport sometime, they would find it difficult, I can say. They may like to refute me, but I don’t think they would have a chance, says Anger.
Martin Ponsiluoma’s response to speech
This is not the first time that a war war is started between cross -country skiers and biathlons. Last year said William Poromaa In the SVT program “Cold talk” that biathlon is “a boring sport”. Since then, there has been a little frosty between the practitioners in the two sports.

Martin Ponsiluoma had to meet Edvin Anger’s play when he met Sportbladet after the World Cup distance race, where he came in 19th place.
– I think they believe a little high about themselves. If Byström (Andersnational team manager for the cross country team) calls me we can see if we can do any competition. I saw the competitions in Norway where there was a biathlon, number eight, which was 30 seconds ahead of the best Swedish at 10 km skate. I don’t think they should say too much, he says.
