Only two medals – so little and so much missing at the same time! One gold and one silver would be enough, and Austria would move from ninth to fourth place in the medal table. And then Germany, yes, Germany would be distant, for the first time since German reunification. For a long time, the neighbors ranked right next to or below each other, and it was only on Friday that Germany gained ground thanks to Daniela Maier’s victory in ski cross. That was the sixth gold medal, Austria has five, plus eight silver medals here and there. Germany is (also) ahead in terms of bronze.
