Friday’s World Cup message must be overcome with the dream team.
The disappearance now ends, the Swedish female skiers report.
The Blue Yellow national team has made the overwhelming ruler of Norway in the front and back in recent years, but success has not been refined as the most coveted prize in the sport in recent years.
Sweden lacks a women’s message victory over this decade.
Team coach Stefan Thomson admits directly that there is pressure. On Friday, only gold is good at Trondheim.
“We’ve talked a lot about it,” Thomson says.
Sweden has been an overwhelming number one favorite in the 2021-23 value messages, but the catch is two lost bronze medals.
– In Planica 2023 we had lubrication challenges. There were no problems at the Chinese Olympic Games in 2022, but the other teams were just stronger.
Thomson will not mention the humiliation of Oberstdorf’s 2021 World Cup. Unseen and miserable tools skied Charlotte Kalla The 4×5 kilometer message collapsed in second part of the tip for one and a half minutes. Sweden was sixth in the competition.

Three times in the last four seasons, Sweden has been number one in the Women’s World Cup land points. In the 2022-23 season, it was second after Norway.
– Hope we will do this year! Since Seefeld we have had problems with the message even though we have the right one Dream Team.
Frida Karlsson and Ebba Andersson are on normal trips in the world’s championships. From the sprint master Jonna from Sundling Heavy bone has also developed for normal trips. Hut Dahlqvist, Linn Svahn, Emma ribom and Johanna Hagström have won the sprint in MC races, Moa ilari for normal trips.
– It started with Charlotte Kalla. Charlotte became a big star in Sweden, so his role as an example is very important when it comes to the current situation in Swedish women’s skiing. After that there were a lot of women who have sparked each other in training camps and competitions.
Kalla, two personal world championships and one Olympic gold, was also my talisman on the message teams. In 2014, Sweden won the Olympic gold in Russia and in 2019 the World Championship in Seefeld.
Six years ago, Andersson and Karlsson were involved in the gold team six years ago. They progressed with the traditional sections. Kalla took care of the role of a run -in role in the third part and currently competing in marathon skiing Stina Nilsson Work as an anchor.

So far, four women’s competitions have been skied in Trondheim. On personal trips, Andersson has two gold and Sundling one. Five of the nine medals distributed to Sweden have gone. In Wednesday’s pair, Sundling and Dahlqvist ventilated.
In the World Cup, the Swedes have competed very little. For example, among the top ten in the Cup overall, there is only one western neighbor’s athlete.
-Our most important goal was the World Cup. Already at the beginning of the summer season, we made a plan that would be at our best for these two weeks in Trondheim. On some weekend, women have also been sore, Thomson says.
The overall women’s World Cup will slip into Norway this season, but it doesn’t matter if there is a refrigerator on Friday.
If not, Det är en stor scandal.
