The show is going on!

Today we witnessed the longest match of this Championship, and it was an incredibly exciting spectacle!

In the Bronze medal match of the 25m Pistol Trio Women Junior Final Ane Bjørkås Torgersen, Tiril Fredrikke Schüller, and Emmeline Ekrem Bryhn met Lydia Vetter, Franziska Thürmer, and Johanna Blenck from Germany. At first, the Norwegians took the lead, but as the match progressed, each Team caught up with the other, and there were several ties. One of Team Norway's athletes experienced an allowable malfunction and was forced to use her colleague's Pistol because her weapon became faulty. Then the score became 15-11 in favor of the Norwegians, but the Germans caught up with them, and the score became equal again. Then – 16-16, which meant shoot-off. 17-17! 18-18! 19-19! And, finally, Norwegian girls won the match with 21-19! Just incredible!

The hostesses of the event Anna Ćukušić, Marija Maglica, and Lana Špirelja and the Ukrainians Viliena Bevz, Yuliia Didenko, and Polina Zaichenko competed for Gold. The match turned out to be no less intense than its first part. At first the Ukrainians were ahead. Then the Croats leveled the situation to 9-9 and took the lead to 9-15. But then, in turn, the Ukrainians pulled themselves together, evened the score and won the match with 17-15!

It was another impressive show here in Osijek! Keep on!
