The Norwegian quartet, consisting of Anders Bardal, Anders Jacobsen, Anders Fannemel and Rune Velta was the favorite of the day before and has fulfilled the prediction winning a medal 'gold remained under discussion only for mid & agrave; race.
MVP of the day found Bardal. The veteran of the team had even threatened not to participate in the World Cup because dell''infortunio wrist suffered in mid & agrave; January in Wisla, but today he gave his valuable contribution to end a beautiful rainbow un''edizione largely positive for Norway.
So is broken after more than a decade the 'hegemony dell''Austria who had won the last seven world championship team event and nell''ambito World Cup was unbeaten away from 2003. Today the quartet rot-wei & szlig; -rot, formed by Stefan Kraft, Michael Hayb & ouml; ck, Manuel Poppinger and Gregor Schlierenzauer is & egrave; had to settle for the medal 'silver.
On balance, the defending champions have had to give up the throne because of a bad first jump of Schlierenzauer, although even Poppinger and Hayb & ouml; ck were transcendental. Excellent but the performance of the winner of Vierschanzentournee.
Bronze medal for Poland, which rescues in extremis a World stingy with satisfaction. Piotr Zyla, Jan Ziobro, Klemens Murańka and especially Kamil Stoch have all played their part in the conquest of the step pi & ugrave; the bottom of the podium.
Fourth good Japan, espressosi the best of its potentialities & agrave ;. The Japanese have preceded Germany, victim instead of a real debacle. The Germans, considered rivals pi & ugrave; accredited in Norway, have literally punctured the wrong test jumps seven out of eight.
The only exception unreal 143 meters obtained in closing by Severin Freund, who - landed 9 meters beyond the 'Hs - has for & ograve; resting his hands on the snow. In any case, the consideration today does not invalidate a budget extremely active in the movement for Teutonic gi & agrave; sure to establish itself in the medal of ski jumping.
Sixth Slovenia that closes instead a World subdued, except for the fourth place in the individual Peter Prevc on Large Hill.
Disappointing performance for the 'Italy formed by Daniele Varesco, Sebastian Colloredo, David and Frederick Bresadola Cecon. The Azzurri have closed twelfths. There were high expectations, but to see the Italian quartet beat by 40 points from the Korean shows that today the team has expressed well below their potentials & agrave ;.
