Pellegrino and Klaebo train together before the ... penalty shootout challenge!

A special occasion to meet the two best sprinters in the world in Trondheim.

Federico Pellegrino vs Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo, this time not in a sprint to play Olympic and world titles, but from the 11 meters of penalty kicks. It happened last night, during the interval of the race valid for the Champions League preliminaries between the hosts Rosenborg and Maribor, beaten 3-1 by the Norwegians. At the "Lenkerdal Stadion" the football show mixed with that of the fund, with the Aosta Valley vice-world and Olympic champion in the sprint, and the champion in charge and winner of the World Cup who challenged each other in a series to the fullest of the three pitches. The success went to the Norwegian 2-0, with Pellegrino who was saved both shots by the goalkeeper (one central, the other on the right), while Klaebo put the ball at the bottom of the bag with ease on both occasions At your service. "I believe that the reason why, at the age of 16, I preferred to choose tight balls," Chicco smiled after the duel on the green lawn. Pellegrino and his great Scandinavian rival will train again and again together in the coming days, with the Azzurri gathering in Trondheim until August 20, before tackling the Toppidrettsveka events, a series of races that will close the long trip from August 22nd to 24th Norwegian national team.
