Hansson was nine tenths from the medal in the JVM

Moa Hansson, who took JVM silver in the sprint on Tuesday, was first out of the Swedes in five kilometers in Finnish Vuokatti.

And she opened strongly.

The next Swedish start Lisa Ingesson, who ran her first JVM race in her career, also impressed in her debut.

Just missed the medal

However, there were no medals in Vuokatti.

Moa Hansson finished in fourth place - nine tenths from the bronze.

Lisa Ingesson was fifth.

Despite missing medals in five kilometers, the future looks bright, according to SVT's expert Anders Blomquist.

- Hansson and Ingesson do cannon races today.

There are many talented Swedish girls.

Instead, it became a Russian double. Veronika Stepanova and Evgeniya Krupitskaya took gold and silver respectively. The bronze went to Norwegian Margrethe Bergane.
