On the 28th, the Ski Nordic Combined World Cup was held in Finland for the third individual race, with Japanese ace Akito Watabe in 16th place.

Nordic combined men and Japan's ace Watanabe are aiming to break the record for the Beijing Olympics season, alongside Japan's most-winning record in the World Cup last season.



The third World Cup race was held in Finland on the 28th, and the first half of the jump was canceled due to the wind.



For this reason, the results of the preliminary jump performed at the same venue on the 25th were adopted.



Watanabe faced the cross-country skiing in the latter half of the 10km in 16th place, 1 minute 49 seconds behind the top.



Watanabe was far away at the 2.5km point and couldn't move up in the ranking, so he finished in 16th place.



On the other hand, Ryota Yamamoto, who made a good jump to 4th place and advanced to cross-country skiing, showed a tenacious slip until the end, but finished in 6th place, which is the top of the Japanese team.



Watanabe's younger brother, Zento, was 20th, Sora Taniji was 21st, Hideaki Nagai was 26th, and Kodai Kimura was 36th.



The winner was Jarl Magnus Riiber of Norway, who won the all-around all-around for the third consecutive season, and has already won his second victory.
