Japan’s Miura and Kihara Bounce Back to Take Pairs gold 🇯🇵⛸️

It's time for the conclusion of the pair skating event. In figure skating, and time to learn, who will have it. Champions, Miura Riku and Kihara Ruichi from Japan. Triple toe, double axel. Looks all clean, second double axel. Great. Anastasia Metalkina and Luka Berulava were the second best performers in the short program, and they are the reigning champions of Europe. There's that triple salchow, double axel. Her positions up top are beautiful. Speed for this throw, triple loop and distance, and she's stepped off it. It's now for Anastasia Metalkina and Luka Berulava. It's going to feel like it lasts a lifetime. The leaders after the short program, and by a good margin. They're going to need every bit of that margin now. Minerva Fabienne Haase and Nikita Volodin of Germany. Double axel, they're far apart though. And a second double axel coming back around hard on itself. Beautiful lines. They've won bronze! They have made it onto the podium. That's the first ever medal won by Georgia at the Olympic Winter Games in any sport. For Japan, the turnaround of turnarounds. Miura Riku and Kihara Ruichi from fifth place after the short program to the first Japanese pair ever to win this event at the Olympic Winter Games.
