The most recent sprint in the World Cup was on January 9, Italian Val di Fiemme.
Then Oskar Svensson was the strongest and took his first victory in the World Cup.
In Falun, he impressed and made it to the finals.
Once there, he made a strong effort and in the end he became two.
Svensson did not succeed raw on Johannes Hösflot Kläbo.
He also looked to be allowed to go against Erik Valnes.
But the Norwegian fell in the race, so Svensson could hold off and finish second.
Håvard Solås Taugböl was third.
Eight Swedish skiers went to the quarterfinals.
Only Svensson and Johan Häggström advanced to the semi.
Häggström finished in fifth place in his semifinal.
