Embacher leads Austria to victory in men's flying hill team event
Austria's Stefan Kraft, Stephan Embacher, Daniel Tschofenig and Markus Mueller celebrate at the podium after winning the men's team event at the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup final at Planica Nordic Centre. Nik Erik Neubauer/ZUMA Press Wire/dpa Stephan Embacher rebounded from a crash the previous day when he achieved the highest score and led Autria to victory in a men's ski flying team event at the World Cup finals in Planica, Slovenia on Saturday. Embacher jumped 233.
5 metres to score 201. 9 points. Daniel Tschofenig, Markus Müller and Stefan Kraft also contributed to the Austrian team's total of 1,439.
5 points. Emabacher fell heavily on Friday after failing to stand a 240m jump but walked away unharmed. Japan were 13.
9 points behind in second and Norway completed the podium in third. Domen Prevc's 208. 2 points were not enough for a podium finish as hosts Slovenia only managed fifth place.
Prevc, who has already claimed the men's overall title, won Friday's individual flying hill and will aim to repeat the result in the final event of the season on Sunday. The final women's competition of the season - their first ever ski flying in Planica - is scheduled for later. Nika Prevc has long clinched a third straight women's World Cup title.
