The proof of the bottom of the gundersen did not follow the pattern of the race after the segment most likely to jump on Large Hill. In fact, the first seven were soon closed ranks, but a general relaxation has also favored the return of three athletes on the paper cut out of the fight for meadglie.

It has therefore come to form a large group made up of ten men who carried'' s understood in a very tactical race.
It was Björn Kircheisen to set fire to the powder in the final round. The German attack on the'' last, hard, uphill and its share has halved the number of tread as Bernhard Gruber, Akito Watabe, Jason Lamy Chappuis, Håvard Klemetsen and debilitated Eric Frenzel have raised the white flag.
The tails of the German were held only by Jørgen Graabak, Rydzek Johannes Fabian Riessle and, with difficulty, by Magnus Moan.
The younger of the two Norwegians then took command of the operations at the beginning of the repeated'' curved end with three Teutonic behind him. In a hairpin Riessle has carried out a split overtaking and slowing dropping Rydzek Kircheisen.
Graabak was then stolen to the'' gold, while Moan had smoothed the way towards the'' silver. Norway therefore back to win the Olympic Games for the first time since Nagano 1998, when he imposed the legendary Bjarte Engen Vik. In addition, the'' ultimate goals in the Nordic combined in Garmisch dated 1936.
The curious fact is that the best Norwegian in both individual events was included in the'' man'' s quartet last time. On the Normal Hill Magnus Krog, bronze, had won the runoff with Graabak and'' last quest, in turn, passed the competition Mikko Kokslien for a bib in the race today.
The winner, born in 1991, had never been imposed in the World Cup, but he was already on the podium proving to be talented guy for sure. Most likely that today will not be the only statement'' of his career.
Behind the Scandinavian Riessle exceeded sprint Kircheisen getting a surprising bronze, but in Germany there will surely swell house after what happened today. Graabak probably would have imposed anyway, but without the omelet of the twenty-three of the Teutonic Breitnau medals would be two.
Italians, lingered after the jump, but recovered in the fund have stayed away from the top positions. Alessandro Pittin concluded eighteenth, twenty-third Armin Bauer, Lukas Runggaldier twenty-eighth and forty-Joseph Michielli.
