21 July 2023 at 17:06 Sobbing with joy after victory: – Almost feel like you’re betraying them Matej Mohoric won the 19th stage of the Tour de France, after a raucous breakaway stage. Towards the end, Mohoric got away with Kasper Asgreen, who won Thursday’s stage, and Ben O’Connor. In the sprint it seemed for a long time that Asgreen was going to win for the second day in a row, but in the last 50 meters Mohoric got past and got a brilliant move with the bike just the wheel in front of the Dane. Mohoric thus took his career’s third stage win in the Tour de France and after the finish he sobbed with joy, both when it became clear that he had won and in the victory interview with the organizer. – Sometimes you feel like you don’t belong here, because everyone is so strong. You sometimes struggle to hold the wheels. You know that the man driving in front is struggling as much as you, but it is cruel to be able to follow the decisive attack. When Kasper attacked – he was so strong. He won the stage yesterday and to have the willpower to do it again today, you just feel that you don’t belong here, says Mohoric in the interview shown on TV 2 and continues: – I followed him and knew I had to do everything perfectly. I did my best. Not only for myself, but also for Gino (Mäder, teammate who died last month) and for the team. And at the end, you almost feel like you’re betraying them (the competitors), because you beat them. But that’s how professional sports are. Everyone wants to win. If I was going to win, I had to take the wheel to Kasper and then try to beat him in the last 50 meters. Rasmus Tiller was the best Norwegian in 21st place, after a day where the Uno-X team did a lot of work at the front of the field. – I tried my best, but there was a lot of tactical play at the end. I got very good help from the other guys, so I’m a little disappointed that I didn’t quite get it, he says to news.
