Pissed off
Bolsjunov tell that he was pissed off, both during and after the race.
a Long time there was a group of five athletes in front. In addition to Bolsjunov there was Sjur Røthe Martin Johnsrud sundby’s time, Iivo Niskanen and Clément Parisse in the lead. Long was the only Bolsjunov that lay in front, and it irritated him very much.
– Yes, I am disappointed that they were not with and helped along the way in the race. They came up first in tomorrow’s. I talked with them along the way and tried to get them out, but then they went just behind and showed that they would not help. I led the way in 3-4 rounds, and they just waited and started to drag at the end. It is not good and I am disappointed in it.
Is it poor sportsmanship?
– It is bad of them to make them that way. I’m disappointed.

Eirik Myhr Nossum says that the Norwegian guys had a clear tactic. He also believes that Bolsjunov not had any reason to be sour.
It was a word quite early where we agreed that we should be a bit on the weather and see an a bit of speed and let the other work. It is not as easy it either, for we would not invite everyone back in the game. I said from halfway on fristildelen that was then it is up to each individual. I don’t know if they got the message or not, but we tried to give it to them. They are so skilled that they take the tactical choices along the way.
So Bolsjunov have no reason to be sour?
– No, I think not, ” says Nossum to the Newspaper.
Okay to criticize
Nor do the other two medaljørene think Bolsjunov had all the reason to whine over the outcome of the distance.
– It is always okay to criticize a bit when one becomes number two. I think that he is a little unhappy with it, and it shows him quite clearly that he is not particularly happy with. It is completely really, but the tactical was well Sjur better in this race, ” says Martin Johnsrud sundby’s time.
bronze winner sundby’s time think not kriitkken hit completely, all the time both him and Røthe went in periods of the race.
– Sjur took the responsibility and went out on the first round of the skøytinga, it took Alexander some responsibility before he waved forward. Then there was a frenchman who was number two, and he was not particularly interested in doing either the one or the other. So, it was Musgrave who was behind him, and he was stick stiff, ” says sundby’s time.
– I felt I did my bet on the first kilometres of the skøytingen. On the classical piece I’m not strong enough to pull, so there are the he, Iivo and in part Martin who is making an effort, ” says the gold medalist, Sur Røthe. the
I don’t know if the outcome had been different if we had gone more, but I feel at least that I did my part of the job today.
