GIRMAY HAILU CREATES THE SURPRISE

While the German sprinter André Greipel was expected to win the first time today, an 18-year-old Eritrean kid doubled everyone on the line to clinch his first UCI event success. A worthy heir to Daniel Teklehaimanot, who is here as leader of the Eritrea national team, the young rider did notace to the best professional sprinters. He knew how to wait for the right moment to pass on the line the cadors who had not been suspicious of him. The professional teams had however imagined having done the hardest by returning to the last breakaway, the Cameroonian Clovis Kamzong just 5 kilometers, the last survivor of a long runaway of 5 runners. Everything seemed then to be in place to offer the professionals a fight of big bill but it was not counting on this young unknown. He will be able to boast for a long time that he has hung up champions such as Greipel, Bonifazio and Manzin who are accustomed to the biggest sprints on the world stage. Italy's Niccolo Bonifazio keeps his yellow jersey as leader.
