Sturla Holm Lägreid, Johannes Thingnes Bö and Tiril Eckhoff made sure that Röiseland went out with a lead of 40 seconds on the last stretch.
Despite the big lead, it was exciting.
In the last shot, she fired three booms - and had to use all the extra shots.
- I did not think about it until I was done.
Then I thought "fy is it possible", standing is my thing, she says to NRK.
Despite all the extra shots, she was able to drive the gold home to Norway without threat.
- It's a mixed feeling right now, because I made it very difficult for myself.
That we take gold today is their merit, not mine.
"Maybe she was too lonely"
This is the first championship that the ladies run the two final distances.
One who is used to driving the last stretch is Johannes Thingnes Bö, who followed the drama from the side.
- When you have a large management, you do not always do what feels natural.
It's the World Cup and everyone has their eyes on you, it's twice as difficult.
She was perhaps too lonely, but got a good try and managed it gallantly.
In my eyes, it was a good performance and good TV, he says to NRK.
