Wienerholm: It rained like the Swedes did

Munich. EC night started with a bang here in Munich.

But when the storm continued, the rain continued.

Like the Swedes.

It was Bianca Salming who saved this evening with her personal record.

Thanks for that, Bianca.

This wasn’t the Swedish EC and it continued on Thursday night when also medal hopeful Sania’s cheeks vanished in the final in which she finished third in Europe.

But in the midst of that sadness ascended Bianca Salming He scored a best 6,187 points and finished eighth in the heptathlon.

One of the few who was the best when it came to this tournament.

Aside from Bianca, only Andreas Almgren in the 5000m and Decathlon Marcus Nilsson have set personal records so far in EC.

And it was so cool to do it in front of Father Bure in the stands.

The temperature warmed up to the core of this cold evening, which initiated a storm warning and delayed the start of the race.

Bianca Salming.

He should cut off my cheek from his coach

And another failure for Kheddi Sanya, one of the few Swedish medalists here in Munich.

Now she was sixth at 6.61 in a competition where the board hits were scattered like showers over Olympic Stadium.

I can’t call it anything but a fiasco.

Khadi is now 28 years old and has never outgrown his talent and abilities.

Her biggest success was taking home bronze from EC from 2021, her youngest championship.

I’ve been in it before.

I think Khadi should change coaches in the later years of his career, to make a fresh start after ten years with his current coach Catherine Clapp.

I know they have developed a special bond that is hard to break.

But sometimes there has to be a change when you stand and stomp in roughly the same place. Give it a shot in Gothenburg as Yannick Tregaro survives and develops a whole group of jumpers. Including Sweden’s only medalist to date.

Anyone in charge of the union should raise this issue anyway.

Take Sane.

Just getting more and more likes in Norwegian

Jakob Ingbrigtsen took his second EC gold when he won the 1500m with an outright finish.

It lived up to the old mantra of go out hard and then go up.

The clock stopped at 3:32.76 and broke the championship record by just over two and a half seconds.

I am more and more impressed with this Norwegian.

Yes, there were also two new Norwegian medals tonight at the Hammer Thrower

Evind Henriksen also took the bronze in the European group.

It’s going well for Norway in athletics now and it looks like they’ve passed Sweden there too, no matter how painful it may be to write.

But there is a lot of talent, a lot of faith in the future, and a lot of tailwind.

Evind Henriksen.

Sweden has only three hopes left for a medal that can save this tournament.

Mundo will of course get a certain EC gold and then we’ll see how far Daniel Stahl and Simon Peterson can go in the discus.

At WC in Eugene it was a bit of a shock when they were both without a medal which is the same bad opponent here at the European Commission.

Interestingly, Finnish NHL star Jussi Jokinen sponsors Stavsensationen Wilma Murto with over 600,000 kroner 2016 sedan.

from your own pocket.

Interested in athletics, Jokinen wanted to help and support a poor athlete and got value for money when Murto exploded here in Munich, taking gold at the European Championships and raising his best by 13cm to 4.85.

Maybe something for Swedish NHL players to emulate.

OOO

finally:

The magical atmosphere continues here at the Olympic Stadium.

When German Konstanze Klosterhalfen ran the house with EC gold in the 5000, he may have been lucky because there is no roof in this arena.

Constanze Klustralvin.
