Jakob Ingebrigtsen put in the last two rounds of the 3000 meter. Then no one could chastise the Norwegian, who took his seventh European gold indoors. With seven gold, Ingebrigtsen tangles the record for Valerij Borzov in the number of golds in the indoor European Championship. Borzov took seven gold for the Soviet Union between 1970 and 1977. The gold winner himself thinks the statistics with seven gold and one silver in the indoor European Championships are also due to some luck. – I think it’s very fun to compete. Then I think it is sometimes fun to exercise, at least if I train towards something. Then it’s all about having some luck in the preparations. One should stay disease and injury-free. That being said, I have had some luck, says Ingebrigtsen to news after finishing. SATISFIED: Jakob Ingebrigtsen can link his fist for the weekend’s second European gold. Photo: Reuters – but I stand up and love to line up. I try to line up as well prepared as I can, and the more I do it the more luck I have. Ingebrigtsen is praised by news’s ​​athletics expert Christina Vukicevic Demidov. – He is really out of the ordinary. The way he runs, the way he solves it and at the same time as he is so down to earth. He is really a team player too, he participates and participates in the others, she says. Swedish training buddy written off the gold Swedish Andreas Almgren, who before the season has trained with Jakob Ingebrigtsen, was number four in goal. He says he was in no doubt who was going to take the gold. – Before the race I knew that silver was the best I could get, says Almgren to news. Almost medal: The bronze medal was just missing Andreas Almgren. Photo: NTB at training camp in Sierra Nevada, the two have trained that part together, but the Swede says he has to take precautions. – He (Ingebrigtsen) is better than me in everything. He is faster on sprint, better at endurance and middle distance. I have to adjust so it doesn’t get too hard simply, he says. When asked what he thinks about the Swede written the gold for his own part, says Ingebrigtsen the following: – It’s a bit sad, but Andreas is so realistic and upbeat. We have trained a little together, so even if we do not measure too much effort, it is a bit like it is. He holds a very good level, so it is quite clear that he is in the fight for a medal. -Put pressure on the rest Norwegian chose a completely different tactic in the 3000 meter than before in the championship. Once again he got back from the start, but he advanced in the field already the first round, and was early in the lead. There he had the British George Mills and James West closest. – Don’t go up to push the speed, Jacob. He probably just goes up to have control. This is too strolled to count, said news’s ​​athletics expert Vebjørn Rodal. Early in the lead: Jakob Ingebrigtsen wanted control. Photo: NTB With just over five rounds left, the cheer in the Netherlands rose when the home team Stefan Nillessen took the lead. From there, the speed was gradually increased, and there was stretch in the field. George Mills was almost Ingebrigtsen in the last rounds, but he was not near the finish line either. Ingebrigtsen won the time 7: 48.40. – Put pressure on the rest. Then it is only to observe that one after the other kneels in Jacob’s pressure, says Rodal. Ingebrigtsen has the world record of 3000 meters outdoors, with 7.17.55. The world record indoors is 7:22.91, set by Grant Fisher. Get immediate reactions to the race in the video window below. This weekend’s second gold gold at 3000 meters is Jakob Ingebrigtsen’s second in the championship. On Friday night he took gold at 1500 meters after leaving French Azeddine Habz on the rally. Even then, the Norwegian was on the tail of the field from the start, before advancing on the outside of the field. After finishing, he was already preparing for the 3000 meters. – I’m crossing my fingers. The legs feel good. I’ve done the right things since I crossed the finish line, with food and jog and those things there. Maybe I’ll get some treatment, Jakob Ingebrigtsen told news then. In total, Ingebrigtsen has eight medals in the indoor European Championship, including one silver. Only German Thomas Wessinghage has several with their 12.
