The 2026 Finnkampen became an athletics drama right to the finish line.
Four points separated Sweden and Finland before the women's final event in Finnkampen. Then the Swedes had a very strong finish and took home the competition. – I saw my chance and took it, says Alice Magnell Millán who won the 800-meter race.
It was a thrilling decider in the Finnkampen on Sunday afternoon. The Swedish women turned around the deficit from Saturday and won for the second year in a row. But on the men's side, Finland won – by a hundredth of a margin.
The Swedish women face an even bigger uphill battle ahead of the second day of the Finnkampen. The 4x100 meter relay team was disqualified after a Finnish protest last night, writes Expressen.
