It became a third place for Daniel Ståhl in the team European Championship in Bydgoszcz and coach Vesteinn Haftensteinsson was anything but satisfied.
For Sportbladet, he talks about his disappointment after the poor performance, which is based on fluid shortages.
- Yes, it was fucking hot and he has apparently missed drinking enough. Then it boils in his large body and he is unable to perform. That's the explanation I got and then I get to buy it, the coach tells Sportbladet and continues:
- He was completely powerless and his legs were heavy as lead. And if it is, it is fucking upsetting. Then it's his own fault. And it must not happen at this level.
Haftensteinsson emphasizes that both he and Ståhl were "cursed afterwards."
- He is so big he has to drink twice as much as everyone else. And he felt very stupid afterwards.
61.38 is Ståhl's worst result this summer. He made a comeback today after the training break.
