Ryoyu Kobayashi’s winning streak at Four Hills came to an end in Garmisch-Partenkirchen as the Japanese star was pushed off the podium in his hunt for a sixth successive victory, with Marius Lindvik taking the win.

Germany's Karl Geiger and Dawid Kubacki of Poland finished just behind the Norwegian jumper.

Lindvak showed his intentions from his first jump which at 142.5m was two metres further than any of his competitors managed and his second jump of 136m left him 4.8 points clear of the field.
