7.09 am: And what does the German Olympic Sports Federation actually say about the emergence of German athletes? “The team presented themselves very well and created a lot of enthusiasm in Sport-Germany,” coach Dirk Schlumpweig said on Saturday. We will achieve our goal of “entering a lane between the Games in Sochi 2014 and Pyeongchang 2018,” Schimmelpfennig said. This also applies to the second goal, “to be among the top three winter sports nations at these Games”.

Eurosport He shared: “I’ve had coaches hit me in the head with towels if I do any items badly. I’ve had coaches shoot water pistols at the ice rink. I’ve had coaches who give us little food.

How far do I actually go? “ You can read the interview and Savchenko’s detailed voice here.

6:26 am: And then, of course, there is still the big Olympic closing ceremony on Sunday, so we ask ourselves who will carry the German flag in the end. Boban’s Thorsten Margis drive will do just that for Germany. The 32-year-old won the gold medal in the two-man bobsleigh alongside Francesco Friedrich on Tuesday.
6.16 a.m. Cross-country skiing: Let’s continue with some unusual news: icy cold and strong winds swirl around the men’s 50km final.

5:37 am: He also responded to criticism that there is no point in using youth “because otherwise we would not be able to compete”. The criticism is much greater, Meyer said, “than if you were fourth, than if you had four runners and one 25th and 28th. We’re here for competitive sports and not to represent a certain breadth.”
5:34 am: Alpine manager Wolfgang Mayer reached a positive conclusion from the Olympics despite the medaled Winter Games: “We showed a good sport and proved that we were able to compete for medals. We accept that, we accept criticism. However, the athletes showed a good performance.”
