Japanese figure skaters Miura Riku and Ruichi Kihara won the gold medal in the pairs competition at the Winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina last night.
The two-time world champions were fifth after the short program, but they performed the free program without a mistake and thus made up for the deficit.
They won 158,13 points and ultimately a total of 231,24 points, which is their best result in their career.
The silver medal was won by Anastasija Metelkina and Luka Berulava from Georgia with 221,75 points.
The best after the short program, the German pair Minerva Fabien Hasse and Nikita Volodin climbed to the last step of the podium with 219,09 points.
