Swedish sprint success: two new WC medals

Leksand extended the winning streak beat AIK

After the blue-yellow success of the JVM sprint, with Anton Grahn’s gold and Elias Danielsson’s silver, there were two new medals when the U23 sprint was decided.

George Ersson took silver and Emil Danielsson bronze.

— It was a little too far for the Norwegian, who took the gold in an impressive way. I can’t ask for more from them, incredibly well done, says coach Mattias Nilsson to SVT.

— I am very, very proud of them. They do exactly what we talked about. Cool.

Norwegian Ansgar Evensen won the gold.

Moa Hansson was fourth in the women’s sprint, which was won by Jasmin Kähärä, Finland.
