Before the last shot, Elvira came in at the same time as Ingrid Tandrevold and Dorotha Wirerer in the hunt to reach a second place after Tiril Eckhoff who shot full.

All were noted for a boom and had to take a penalty round.

Hanna Öberg slipped past and the trio had to chase third place.

There was a bulge out in the track.

- Wierer tried to walk around in the meantime but it was too crowded but I did not want to give her a place but she insisted on going there anyway.

She falls when we step on each other, says Öberg to SVT Sport and is a little worried that the event will give some kind of aftermath.

- I do not know if she has anything to say but I was before her and then we will see, says Elvira Öberg.

But there was no aftermath but the Swede's podium managed.

Wierer, who won the overall World Cup last season, dropped out in the battle to reach the podium but saved fifth place.
