- It's so damn nice.

I've had a crappy season and started to doubt what you're doing.

There is so much that comes into play, says Sandström to SVT Sport.

Sandström had to wait in the goal for Jens Burman and Gustaf Berglund who threatened in the lane.

With 900 meters to go, four riders were gathered within two seconds.

- It is still disappointing.

I want it to go faster.

Can press but not fast enough.

I need one more level, says Burman, with a WC perspective, who took the silver with a tenth of a margin to the third Jonas Eriksson.

Fredrik Andersson missed the podium by just over a second.

Calle Halfvarsson took the lead at 1.0 km but just 600 meters later he had slipped down to 63rd place and was then 16.5 seconds behind the lead.

He crossed the finish line dejectedly

- It doesn't sparkle about him today, but he gets a drive through.

After illness, it can take a couple of competitions to reach a good level, says Anders Blomquist
