Poles before the last chance for a medal. The prognosis is not very good
Fortunately, the Polish jumpers have not said the last word yet and will try to win more medals in the team competition. However, this will be the last chance to achieve something.
Unfortunately, the Poles are not in such a good shape now as they were four years ago, when they were sounding the bar at the Olympics, so it may be difficult to repeat this success. Then our team appeared in a completely different line-up. Instead of Pawa Indic and Piotr ya we saw Maciej Kot and Stefan Hul.
Looking at the results of Saturday’s individual competition on the large hill, the favorites of the Monday team are the Soviets. It was the charges of Robert Hrgota who jointly achieved the highest score, ahead of the Germans and Austrians. Unfortunately, Poles only came in sixth.
