As one of twelve Europeans, David Nilsson started in the World Cup marathon with modest expectations.

- My goal is to hit half, it would be pretty good, he said before.

But already after 10 kilometers he started to lose ground, and really.

Among other things, he missed a drink during a fight and is said to have communicated that he had pain in one foot.

- Sad, especially that David is in pain.

Hope it is not too serious with the foot, said SVT expert Mustafa Mohamed in broadcast.

Tamirat Tola, Ethiopia, won the race on the new championship record 2.05.36.
