Edvin Anger was lifted forward by strong public support at the ski games in Falun. In the stands on Sunday: Carl XVI Gustaf. It's fun. It looks better for the future, said the king in connection with the World Cup competitions.
SportsThe Norwegian Pål Golberg took his 13th career victory in the World Cup when he won the mass start over 20 kilometers in Falun. It's always just as big to win, now I've won all different distances. This victory I value highly, says Golberg to SVT.
SportsA yellow wall, with hundreds of personal supporters, carried Edvin Anger to sixth place in the mile race in Falun. They gave me extra motivation to be able to maintain the tempo, said a visibly moved Anger after the competition.
SportsIt's about being the best when it matters. Just ask Ebba Andersson. The 27-year-old took the season's first World Cup victory in the World Championship rehearsal at home in Falun. It has really been a tough road back, she says to Viaplay.
SportsThird in qualifying and the big home hope, but it didn't work out for Edvin Anger in the classic World Championship sprint in Falun. The 22-year-old was eliminated in a tough semifinal. It's sour, he says in Viaplay.
SportsSki star Linn Svahn has had a tough season, but was the fastest of all in the classical sprint qualifier in the World Cup competition in Falun. In the men's qualifier, Edvin Anger was third, but for two World Championship skiers, the day ended in a fiasco.
SportsBoth William Poromaa and Ebba Andersson finished the National Championship with a form announcement. But the routine can be at least as important in the World Championship team to Trondheim. We must be prepared for an enormous pressure, says national team manager Anders Byström.
SportsEdvin Anger continues to show fine form even in distance events ahead of the World Championship. The 22-year-old finished fourth in the 10-kilometer freestyle and just missed the podium. A good level in the body, and it's fun to ski then, he says.
