4 December 2022 at 11:41 Udnes Weng beaten in the sprint in a dramatic finish – Karlsson won When the clock rang for the last round of the 20-kilometer World Cup in Lillehammer, Sweden’s Frida Karlsson tried to pull away from the field, but the competitors would have none of it. German Katharina Hennig picked up Karlsson’s lead, and hung on like a charm, but then she was to run into problems. After one tight field, she fell to the ground, and the pole broke. Tiril Udnes Weng and Ebba Andersson challenged Karlsson as best they could, but Karlsson was just against it. Tiril Udnes Weng was second and Ebba Andersson third. – It was a tight and stressful race. I had to try something, and wanted to go hard and try to break away from the field, but it was difficult on this track, says Karlsson. She thanks Hennig and Andersson who helped her up to the top in the last round, when she herself felt very tired. Tiril Udnes Weng took another podium place, and she is very pleased with her performance in what she calls a fun race. – I am very pleased. In the finish area I was so tired and had more than enough to breathe on my own, says Udnes Weng to news. – Did you try to outrun Karlsson on the run? – Of course I wanted to, but I didn’t have the chance. She is better at staking and had more sprints in her than me today, says Udnes Weng.
