The Swedish 30 year old, fourth after the first run and then a marked improvement over the last few races, he got on the penultimate door then ending up against the guards finish line. He tried to get up immediately and reached on his legs but hobbled the arrival parterre. Transported to the hospital, the MRI showed a partial damage to the internal ligament and a bone bruise to the knee, it is not specified which.
Maria will wear a knee protection for 3-4 weeks and will put the skis between 6-8 weeks. On the one hand there is the sigh of relief because the injury is not serious and the operation is not necessary, but being this recovery time Pietilä Holmner will almost certainly skip the World Championships in St. Moritz next February. A pity for an athlete who was returning to his best performance.
