Rust is disappointed with silver after nerve-racking denouement: ‘Prefer to lose by 2 seconds’

Patrick Roest is disappointed that he lost the battle for gold in the 5 kilometers at the Olympic Winter Games on Sunday with such a small difference to Nils van der Poel. Due to a bad final lap, De Lekkerkerker was only half a second short of the Swede, who was superior at the stayers distance all season.
