The talent on skis tight Belarus is in fact enhanced by the hard tracks on which you are competing in the Olympic competitions, and at the same time ease the polygon of Krasnaya Polyana, as demonstrated by a general increase in precision, multiply the importance of knowing how'' make a difference in the fund.
Therefore difficult to beat Domracheva in a context like this, especially if the twenty-seven Minsk to better manage the difficult moments at the shooting range as done today. Darya has played a game in hand, taking the upper hand in the second round of competition and committing the'' single, infinfluente, error'' s last day of the polygon.
"Dasha" becomes the first biathlete in history to win three Olympic gold medals individual, however, in the same edition of the Games. '' So far, the only woman capable of attracting attention three times in competitions in five circles was Germany's Kati Wilhelm, but with a'' statement in the relay.
'' The silver medal went to Gabriela Soukalova, finally managed to get on the podium after two fourth places. The Czech'' was the only woman not to be outshone by the Belarusian, but more than a half'' turned out to be at best a goad to the leader. The twenty-four of Jablonec nad Nisou can still be satisfied for having given to his country's first Olympic medal in biathlon women playing a proof parallel to that of Domracheva, taking a step on the slopes great, though lower than that of the winner.
Bronze medal for Tiril Eckhoff, talented girl for sure destined to attend consistently the top positions of the circuit in the near future. The Norwegian made a mistake on the second polygon, but gradually he recovered thanks to her for an unusual double zero feet and a final round where it has managed to get the better of Evi Sachenbacher-Stehle.
The German, able to cover all twenty targets, just missed his sixth Olympic medal after having won five cross-country skiing, but had to settle for fourth place, beaten in the sprint, finishing in front of the Slovenian Teja Gregorin, again convincing after the third place in the'' hot pursuit, and the Polish Monika Hojnisz, the second best result of his career.
The list is headed by Kaisa Mäkäräinen disappointed. The Finnish racing for the podium until the last polygon all'', he concluded seventh because of the usual mistakes feet. The suomi will probably end his career without an Olympic medal, unless it decides to go another four years and thirty-five is not able to realize the swan song in Pyeong Chang, 2018.
Race to forget for veterans Tora Berger and Olga Zaitseva, fifteenth and twenty-fourth respectively, both with the'' mitigating they have been victims of falls rather disastrous (especially in Moscow). Absolute debacle for Russia that has not placed any athlete in the top twenty.
In Italy Karin Oberhofer house remained in the fourteenth share closing with two errors and disputing the'' yet another convincing proof of these Olympic Games. Dorothea Wierer, not in the best condition since recovering from an illness, he concluded, however, twenty-sixth.
