<p>Stanislav Rezac out sprinted Oskar Svard of Sweden in an exciting fight for first while Gianantonio Zanetel of Italy was third only eight seconds out. Sweden had three skiers in the top eight (2, 6, 8) and so did Italy (3, 4, 5). </p>

<p>Christina Paluselli of Italy won her third FIS marathon cup race in a row in dominating style, beating second place finisher Sofia Lind of Sweden by five minutes and 19 seconds and third place Nafranovich Irinia by more than 12 minutes. </p>
