The other races were 10 kilometer free technique in Lillehammer, 20 kilometer free technique in Davos and 15 kilometer free technique in the NM.  Selection results for the 15 kilometer candidates Johannes H\u00f8sflot Kl\u00e6bo Lillehammer: Ill Davos: 5th place Gj\u00f8vik: Priority World Cup in Livigno Simen Hegstad Kr\u00fcger Lillehammer: 10th place Davos: 1st place Gj\u00f8vik: Ill Harald \u00d8stberg Amundsen Lillehammer: Illness Davos: Not withdrawn due to illness Gj\u00f8vik: 1st place Sjur R\u00f8the Lillehammer: 9th place Davos: 3rd place Gj\u00f8vik: 5th place Didrik T\u00f8nseth Lillehammer: 2nd place Davos: 4th place Gj\u00f8vik: Sick Iver Tildheim Andersen Lillehammer: 1st place Davos: 6th place Gj\u00f8vik: 3rd place Johannes H\u00f8sflot Kl\u00e6bo has so far only completed one of them, in Davos shortly after a period of illness.  There he was beaten by four Norwegian runners: Kr\u00fcger, Holund, R\u00f8the and T\u00f8nseth.  However, the experts are clear that he must be allowed to go to the WC.  &#8211; Kl\u00e6bo is the world&#8217;s best cross-country runner and he can choose the exercises he wants to do, says news expert Torgeir Bj\u00f8rn without hesitation &#8211; before handing out another place: &#8211; Kr\u00fcger and Holund have shown such high potential many times up through, so they three are indisputable, says the news expert.  GETS THE GREEN LIGHT FROM THE EXPERTS: The Tour de Ski podium with Simen Hegstad Kr\u00fcger (from left), Johannes H\u00f8sflot Kl\u00e6bo and Hans Christer Holund believes the news experts should be allowed to go to the WC.  Photo: Terje Pedersen \/ NTB The news experts Torgeir Bj\u00f8rn and Fredrik Aukland agree that there are then four runners fighting for the last two places.  &#8211; It&#8217;s tricky.  Iver Tildheim Andersen has had a great season.  The victory at Lillehammer is especially loud.  Didrik T\u00f8nseth has been close to him, at the same time we know that Harald \u00d8stberg Amundsen has been reduced in the first part of the season due to covid illness.  Aukland and Bj\u00f8rn believe the latter is close to joining the squad after winning freestyle in the Scandinavian Cup and National Championships two weekends in a row.  &#8211; Now he has built himself up again and showed with the NM gold here that he is on his way to old heights, and he has bronze from this exercise in Oberstdorf.  It speaks for \u00d8stberg Amundsen taking one of the two vacant places.  Then you have to evaluate Iver Tildheim Andersen, whether he is able to win a medal in the WC, against Sjur R\u00f8the and Didrik T\u00f8nseth, Bj\u00f8rn believes.  CHALLENGED: Sjur R\u00f8the (front) has delivered a podium place in one of the qualifying races, won the Norwegian Cup race and was on the podium in the joint start.  Didrik T\u00f8nseth (back) was second, only beaten by 2.8 seconds by Iver Tildheim Andersen at Lillehammer.  A week later he finished fourth &#8211; ahead of Johannes H\u00f8sflot Kl\u00e6bo and Tildheim Andersen.  Photo: Terje Pedersen \/ NTB Fredrik Aukland advocates that they must carry out an American withdrawal.  Those of the runners who perform best in the World Cup in Les Rousses must be allowed to go to the WC.  He believes that there is so little difference between the candidates in question so far this season.  Iver Tildheim Andersen thinks that is too easy.  &#8211; Nope.  No. I think they should make an overall assessment.  There are, in a way, four qualifying races as they have formulated it, so I think it will be wrong if only next weekend is to be decisive.  I don&#8217;t think there should be any advantage to standing above the gutter here.  SURPRISE MAN: Iver Tildheim Andersen won the 10 kilometer free technique at Lillehammer.  Now the news experts believe that he has a realistic WC opportunity.  Photo: Heiko Junge \/ NTB \u2013 How much should a World Cup victory count?  &#8211; That should count for a lot.  They should take people who can win ski races, not take people who finish fourth either, says Tildheim Andersen, who at the same time hands out one of the places to NM winner Harald \u00d8stberg Amundsen: &#8211; How does it look to your own part?  &#8211; If I had been on the national team it would have looked very good, I think, smiles Tildheim Andersen.  No Kl\u00e6bo guarantee Distance national team coach Eirik Myhr Nossum is crystal clear that none of the four vacant places have been allocated.  Even Johannes H\u00f8sflot Kl\u00e6bo gets no praise, nor does Simen Hegstad Kr\u00fcger: &#8211; I have lived with experts taking out teams since Beitost\u00f8len.  When you go from one to the other, there are different teams, grins national team coach Eirik Myhr Nossum.  HODEBRY: Eirik Myhr Nossum, together with sprint coach Arild Monsen, cross-country manager Espen Bjervig and subject manager Per Elias Kalfoss, selects the Norwegian WC squad.  Photo: Terje Pedersen \/ NTB He is secretive when it comes to the draft, and obviously will not draw a single conclusion until the last of four draft races have passed.  On Friday, the hopefuls go 10 kilometers freestyle in Les Rousses.  So does world cup runner-up P\u00e5l Golberg, who tells news that he does not see himself as a candidate to go 15 kilometer freestyle in the WC.  When asked how Nossum values \u200b\u200ba World Cup victory, his answer is as follows: &#8211; It is absolutely an advantage to win a ski race and there are a lot of people here who have won a ski race.  Then you would have been left with exactly the same, because you have people who have won the WC, but not necessarily won this year.  Then you know that they have historically been good in championships.  It is always an advantage to have been in a championship, so there is a lot that needs to come into play here, says Nossum.  Championship achievements in distance running Johannes H\u00f8sflot Kl\u00e6bo Olympic bronze: 15 kilometers classic in 2022 Simen Hegstad Kr\u00fcger Olympic gold: 30 kilometers with ski change in 2018 Olympic silver: 15 kilometers freestyle in 2018 Olympic bronze: 50 kilometers freestyle in 2022 WC silver: 30 kilometers with ski change and 15 kilometer freestyle in 2021 World Cup bronze: 50 kilometers classic in 2021 Harald \u00d8stberg Amundsen World Cup bronze: 15 kilometer freestyle in 2021 Sjur R\u00f8the World Cup gold: 30 kilometers with ski change in 2019 World Cup bronze: 30 kilometers with ski change in 2013 and 50 kilometer freestyle in 2019 Didrik T\u00f8nseth 4th place from 30 kilometers with ski change in 2015 as best position.  Was number five in 15 kilometers when he last participated in 2019. Iver Tildheim Andersen According to the season information, there are three main criteria for selection for Norway&#8217;s World Cup squad: Results in the World Cup 2022\/23, results in the Norwegian Cup and Scandinavian Cup in 2022\/23 and performances in the World Cup in 2021\/22.
