After yesterday's fine fifth place in the sprint, Frida Karlsson finished 19 seconds behind yesterday's winner Nadina Fähndrich in today's 10 km classic style.
Before the fourth and last lap, it was Karlsson, Tiril Udnes Weng, Lotta Udnes Weng, Anne Kjersti Kalvå and Kerttu Niskanen who settled for the podium places.
Karlsson was close for a long time, but in the end she was overtaken by Tiril Udnes Weng, who won, and the Finnish Kerttu Niskanen.
The Norwegian Weng, who is one of the contenders for the overall victory of the Tour de Ski, thus took his first World Cup victory ever.

Ida Dahl made a good effort and came in 14th place, 1 minute and 23 seconds behind.
