Johannes Thingnes Bö has been beaten by Margian Samuelsson twice in a row.
On Sunday he finished third in the sprint in Östersund and today he found himself in ninth place.
- I can take and congratulate (Samuelsson).
It looks incredibly strong.
But the Swedes have very good skis, he says and sends another congratulatory greeting.
- You can take and congratulate the walla team.
They seem to have done a really good job, he says with a twinkle in his eye.
Sebastian Samuelsson:
- We have very good skis, but that is not the whole truth, he says.
Samuelsson himself was really happy after winning again - despite a boom.
- I am very happy and a little surprised.
The Norwegians said during the change of clothes that it is two years since someone won a sprint with a boom, if that is true, it was really good, says Samuelsson.
Sweden's coach Johannes Lukas praised the Swedish team - both the riders and those behind the scenes.
- The Vallata team does a fantastic job.
Sebastian himself too, it has worked hard today.
How much do the skis really matter?
- It is clearly a big thing that we have the world's best wall team.
But we also have the world's best assets right now.
Maybe tough for Norway right now, but it's good for us.
