Dramatic final of the four -hill tour: Who wins in Bischofshofen?
in Bischofshofen, the grand finale of the 73rd fourth tour tour is increasing today at 4.30 p.m. and causes a sensation before the first jump. Austria's ski jumping star Stefan Kraft, who goes into the decisive jump with only 0.6 points as the leading jump, has the entire competition under control. The qualification winner faces an exciting duel with his compatriot Jan Hörl and Daniel Tschofenig, who are close to his heels. While the Austrian pilots have a clear advantage, the German jumper, including Pius Paschke, have difficulty getting to the shape of their neighbors, as the sportkrone.at
The competition of the nations
The German team, which originally planned for September in Bischofshofen, was only a shadow of themselves in the end. "We wanted to train, but a concert was in between," said last year's second Andreas Wellinger. Instead, they stand as an outsider in the final, while the Austrians shine in an impressive form in the home hill. The pressure on the Germans is growing after they could not achieve a podium in Innsbruck in the previous week, and coach Stefan Horngacher is certain: "It looked cramped, there was pressure on it." The mental pressure becomes a challenge, since the Austrians appear casual and confidently on the ski jumps and benefit from the mood of their fans, as the taz.de emphasizes.
Stefan Kraft, who is already known as a ski flight world recorder, has prepared for the final with personal celebrations and emotional moments. "Dahoam is the most beautiful," he said, while he was triumphed in Innsbruck and started songs with his teammates. The spectators are enthusiastic about the performance of the Austrians, who are well on the way to win a triple victory on the tour after 50 years. The air is tense and it remains to be seen whether the Germans can still surprise their rivals or whether Austria brings the victory home.
