– It is without a doubt the heaviest day of my life so far, says Johannes Høsflot Klæbo.
The video on YouTube was posted on Tuesday night, and there Klæbo says that it has only been four or five hours since the jury decided that he was discarded and deprived of gold, and the winner of the World Cup was Emil Iversen ahead. by Aleksandr Bolshunov in what turned out to be a very dramatic finale to the championship in Germany.
Klæbo ended up in a bind with the Russian Bolshevik where the latter, among other things, broke his cane.
– Surely you have seen that they discarded me, and that is something that I think is completely sick. I’ve done so many crazy sprints and runs, and I know how to figure things out. I felt überpigg and that I was in full control. I was just squeezed out of the way, even when I was walking alongside him. I’ve seen what happened to Mäki and Bolshunov earlier this winter, and I know I can’t do the same, says Klæbo.
Void of words
He also says that he has viewed television images from a different angle and that he perceives them in ways that push him out. He says that he is speechless and that he is really struggling to figure out what to do.
– Should I go home, give a damn about the rest of the World Cup season and see if I can think of something else? FIS (International Ski Federation) of which I am terribly tired. I think the way they handle things is bad. They do not dare to make a correct decision, and here I sit without a medal or anything, it is among what Klæbo says in the video.
Wrong
Klæbo says he experiences being pushed out of the way on purpose and that it all feels unfair.
The 24-year-old says he’s so disappointed he’s not sure if he’ll ski on it again.
In the same movie, we can also see some thoughts he makes about Norway’s relay gold at the beginning of the championship.
It is part of the story that Klæbo withdrew an appeal against the FIS decision and that he competed in the World Cup in Switzerland the following weekend.
