After the gold in the team competition, it became yet another triumph for the Russian gymnasts in the World Cup when it was time for the multifaceted. For once again Nikita Nagornyy got gold cheer, while compatriot Artur Dalaloyan took silver. And Nagorny impressed during the competition at SVT's Annamaria Fredholm and expert Veronica Wagner.
- He makes a flawless competition, Wagner says.
- He has steel nerves. It seemed from the beginning that it was Nikita's day. Russia dominates here today, says Fredholm.
Nagornyy collected a total of 88,772 points, while Dalaloyan received 87,165. The bronze beat Oleg Verniaiev from Ukraine with 86,973 points, which meant that only the flags of Europe stood on the podium and celebrated, which does not belong to the usual.
- It is a European triumph in a male starting field dominated by Asians, says Fredholm.
