Thanks to the impressive jumps of Selina Freitag, who achieved the second highest distances in both rounds, they fought for victory until the last moment. With 963.6 points, they beat the Norwegian team with 950.8 points and the Austrian quartet, which scored 941.8 points. "I was a bit surprised by the quality of my jumps. The girls delivered great jumps, like they did all weekend," said Philipp Raimund, pleased about the German victory, which is also the first mixed World Cup victory of their careers for him and Agnes Reisch skijumping.com reported.
