German Vinzenz Geiger Takes Revenge in Val di Fiemme

Vinzenz Geiger secured his 10th victory in the World Cup at Val di Fiemme, marking a significant achievement. The German athlete had finished second the previous day but triumphed over Austrian Johannes Lamparter, edging him out by 5 seconds in the 10 km race on Sunday. After the jumping phase, Geiger was in tenth place, starting the cross-country leg 36 seconds behind Estonian Kristjian Ilves. He managed to pull ahead to seize victory, further enhancing his reputation in the sport.

The standings were reflected in Johannes Riiber's absence from this event due to back injury but he currently leads the overall World Cup standings.

In the overall rankings, Geiger's performance places him solidly within the top competitors, demonstrating his continued dominance in the Nordic Combined events, particularly in Italian venues.
