Nightmare for Swedish Debutant – Fell in Sprint Relay

Nightmare for Swedish Debutant – Fell in Sprint Relay

It was a nightmare debut in the sprint relay for 23-year-old Måns Skoglund at the World Cup in Lahti. Initially, there was a failed exchange between Skoglund and Edin Anger, which caused an unfortunate setback.

On the penultimate leg, Skoglund collided with France's second team and fell. This mishap ultimately led to the Swedish team finishing in eleventh place. Norway took the win, followed by Switzerland in second and France in third.

This event highlights the challenges faced by new athletes in high-pressure situations, and Skoglund will surely learn from this experience as he continues his career in cross-country skiing.
