After the shock of the withdrawal in winter at 32 years old, the 5 -time Norwegian Olympian returned to the first love. And it was his goal of the 2-2 of the Vinger VK against the leaders of the championship (sixth category)
He won the impossible in the Biathlon – 5 Olympic gold, 23 world championships and 5 world cups – but, once skiing and rifle laid, Johannes Boe was unable to resist his old passion, football. The Norwegian champion withdrew in March as one of the most winning athletes in the history of the discipline but immediately put himself at stake, signing for the Vinger VK, the formation of sixth series of his hometown. And the debut, Thursday evening, was not bad: debut with goals for Boe, who allowed his team to equalize 2-2 with the leaders Kjellmyra.

Johannes, brother of the champion Tarji Boe, has always lived with a great passion for the ball. “I played football in the Styrn – he said to the local press after the debut – before the Biathlon took me all the time, I think I can have fun now”. At just 32 years old, he certainly still has all the time to do it.
