After yesterday's heavy shooting in the distance competition, Sebastian Samuelsson was unsure before the sprint.

- You get a slap.

I get very thoughtful about why I miss, he told SVT Sport before the competition.

But in the sprint he got great revenge when he shot full and right now is on his way to victory.

Samuelsson opened the fastest in the track and connected the grip immediately after the first shot.

- Cannon start, he gives himself the chance, says SVT Sports expert Björn Ferry.

"It's a crush"

Before the second shooter, he had a dream position for a top position.

And as he took it.

Flawless shooting even in standing and an impressive finish means that he is on his way to the first World Cup victory of the season.
