Cake party for biathlon relay medalists

The bronze medal in the biathlon relay was celebrated with cake and bubbles outside the Swedish team's hotel in Antholz.

It was a quiet celebration where the most dramatic thing was Sebastian Samuelsson spraying the press corps with non-alcoholic bubbly.

Martin Ponsiluoma, who won gold in the pursuit on Sunday, was proud of his bronze, but said he would have liked to win a silver as well, to complete his medal haul.

Partner Hanna Öberg is still without a medal at this year's Olympics.

I will have to try to reduce it in the near future, she says.

She has two chances left, Wednesday's relay and Saturday's mass start.
