Nyenget wins as Klæbo has to settle for 14th after six worlds golds
Norwegian cross country star Johannes Høsflot Klæbo showed that he is human after all as he finished 14th in the first World Cup race since famously sweeping all six world titles, with team-mate Martin Løwstrøm Nyenget finishing top.
Nyenget claimed a third win of the season and fifth overall in emphatic fashion in the 20 kilometres interval start race in classic style at Oslo's Holmenkollen, finishing 51.2 seconds ahead of Sweden's William Poromaa.
Norway's Simen Hegstad Krüger completed the podium in third, another two seconds back.
World Cup leader Klæbo trailed by more than two minutes in 14th, a week after completing an unprecedented sweep of all six golds at the Trondheim worlds with the 50km title.
Oslo normally hosts 50km World Cup races for men and women but is staging 20km and 10km events this year because of the 50km races at the worlds last weekend.
