“We have cheated” a clearer and more startling forefinger we have hardly experienced. The direction was also not to be mistaken. This Sunday, Norwegian sports got a new public villain. The name is Magnus Brevig. Formally, Brevig is still national team coach. It can’t last very long. Only the labor law aspect obviously prevented jumping chief Jan Erik Aalbu from setting up Brevig for Open Scene at a completely spectacular press conference at Lerkendal this Sunday. And it’s nothing but understandable. HUGE INTEREST: There was a big press offer at the spectacular press conference. Photo: Erlend Lånke Solbu / news Someone must take responsibility for the largest Norwegian jump scandal of all time. Initially, he was sitting and watching it was cheated. But more people are likely to follow. And it can’t be money. A continued vulnerable jump economy will suffer even major damage if you do not show you are willing to clean up after such a reputation disaster. “Yes, this was completely conscious of cheating,” which Aalbu repeatedly repeated. Present: The video shows that Brevig was present when the jumping suits were manipulated. The eagle that never landed jump manager Aalbus admission of cheating is perhaps the clearest since cyclist Bjarne Riis admitted the use of EPO. The accusations against the Danish Tour de France winner had been pending for a long time, when in May 2007 he convened a press conference in Copenhagen, where there was an admission no one in the bicycle world thought one would experience from the occasionally very arrogant star. “I’ve taken doping. I’ve taken Epo, “Riis told the podium. Bjarne Riis: Pictured in 1997. Photo: Pierre Andrieu / AFP / NTB What Bjarne Riis admitted to having used, no one doubted could be called doping. In addition to EPO, he also admitted the use of cortisone and growth hormones. Riis explained to the press conference that he thought had only done as everyone else did at the same time. And could thus just as well have been a Norwegian jump leader in 2025. Riis had the nickname “Eagle from Herning” and obviously also knew what was required to fly as well as and better than its competitors. The reason I mention Riis is partly the similarity in messages. A kind of shocking clarity – which nevertheless left several ambiguities when you got buzzed. And that is the recognition that the path to some kind of forgiveness actually does not have to be that long. Riis could continue his career as profiled sports director and team owner, even though he was controversial until the last day he was active in cycling. However, it is not enough to save Magnus Brevig’s career as a national team coach. The total loss of confidence in it is the breach of trust and fraud too rough. Which is also the actual undertone of Aalbus message. “Of course, I’m considering my own position,” Aalbu said too. There are probably several others who do too. Appeared: Aalbu during Sunday’s press conference – where he admitted that Norway has cheated deliberately. Photo: Erlend Lånke Solbu / news may also be argued that Aalbu partially threw Brevig under the bus, as it is called. At least he put him in the car in the direction of Oslo well before the press conference. Which does not immediately appear particularly wise. Brevig, who was previously responsible for the so -called “Sport Science” in the jumping team, should have told its story and not least answer questions on the podium in Trondheim, just 10 meters away from the room where he and the sewing Adrian Livelten were sneaked while they made the unregulated adjustments on the suits. What one learns from such small or large shocks is that something basic is nevertheless torn away. And is gone for good. It’s simply called “trust”. And it no longer has Magnus Brevig. “I am incredibly sorry for what has happened. I would like to comment on the media, but would like to wait until tomorrow after talking to my employer. ”He writes in an SMS to news on Sunday night. Caramel and bruises “We got a caramel,” said the jump manager from the podium in Trondheim. The bruises will be visible on the Norwegian jumping sport for quite so long. Aalbu seemed credible when he told him he didn’t know. But there were other things about the information he brought to the public, who did not immediately stand to believers. How to think this was the first time? Why on earth should you cheat with the winning dress from the normal hill to the last run when you already succeeded so impressively well without doing it? Why was it just the suits of Lindvik and Forfang Man cheated with? Was it really just Brevig and the Dresser Adrian Livelten who had knowledge of this? And perhaps the hardest of all: How can the jumpers themselves have avoided knowing? They too should have told their version. And at one point will have to do so. “We are going to the bottom of this,” Aalbu promised. “This breaks with everything I stand for,” he added. BIG NEWS: It is not just in Norway that the Norwegian jump scandal – and the admission of cheating – is big news. It is also big up in Slovenia. And in Poland. It is also mentioned in the Czech Republic. Now only the Inquisition is moved from Nidaros Cathedral to Norsk Hoppsports Mecca, Holmenkollen. This year’s traditional Kollen jump race breaks all traditions-and symbolically goes by the stack in the dark on Thursday night. The distance from the plain to the top of the tower in the national facility also has its symbolism. With its 600 heavy steps on the road to sewing together a confidence that to the degrees has rattled.
