Scare in Hafjell
Face full of blood! Haaser crashes heavily
At the men's giant slalom World Cup in Hafjell, Norway, Austrian world champion Raphael Haaser crashed heavily in the second run and crossed the finish line with a bleeding face on one ski.
Giant slalom world champion Raphael Haaser was eighth in the first run and had the interim best time in the final, but crashed shortly before the finish.
Tooth knocked out
The Tyrolean caught a gate with one hand and fell hard on his back at high speed. After a short breather, the 27-year-old skied to the finish line on one ski with a bloodied face. Haaser knocked out a tooth in the fall, ORF reported.
"We have to see a dentist, he has massive jaw and facial injuries. They need to be checked out," said head coach Marko Pfeifer, whose protégé was hit by a gate while sliding and was knocked out for a few seconds as a result. "But it looks like he's fine as far as his legs and other extremities are concerned."
