After all, Fjorden Ree gets the chance there. – I rarely take the selection live on TV, but this was a rare good application. I don’t know how it is with your Finnish, but you get some time to practice it, says Myhr Nossum to news. – We’ll see what happens. It will be fun, replies an exceptionally low-key Fjorden Ree.

Photo: Terje Pedersen / NTB news’s cross-country expert Martin Johnsrud Sundby believes this is just the start of a very exciting career. – It is one we will see a lot. He has learned a lot in recent years, and that learning makes me believe in it more, predicts Johnsrud Sundby. The cross-country expert believes that few people in Norway know who Fjorden Ree is – and they are probably right. But Martin Løwstrøm Nyenget, who came third, comes with a warning. – He is one of those who trains the toughest, both the most and the hardest. The fact that he gets paid for it is frightening for everyone else with all the training he has in his body. It is a warning, says Løwstrøm Nyenget to news. Fjorden Ree, who comes from Støren in Trøndelag, opened with a fierce speed and took the lead at 2.6 kilometers. – A shock start from Andreas Fjorden Ree, who has no respect for anyone or anything. He opens the door, and it looks quite calm, said news’s commentator Jann Post. The 24-year-old in no way took his foot off the gas pedal. After 6.3 km he went into a lead of over half a minute to the next man. news’s experts were shocked by the pace. – It is a completely different standard. He is an ocean ahead, Post said. – A demonstration of power. It’s completely raw, Johnsrud Sundby insisted. When Fjorden Ree whizzed across the finish line, the next man on the results list was over a minute behind. – I think it will be good, said Fjorden Ree – a man of few words – to news in the target area. For stars such as Simen Hegstad Krüger, Martin Løwstrøm Nyenget and Didrik Tønseth were still on the trail, but no one was able to chastise the 24-year-old. – He ran a phenomenal classic race yesterday. Today he is in a class of his own technically, says news expert Fredrik Aukland. Austrian Mika Vermeulen was closest, but finished 8.8 seconds behind Fjorden Ree. – He may be new to the breadth, but we know him quite well, says Vermeulen to news after the 2nd place – and adds: – There are so many Norwegians that you don’t have an overview anyway.
