LILLEHAMMER, Norway (AP) — Magnus Moan of Norway won his second Nordic Combined World Cup event of the weekend Sunday for his 20th career victory.

Moan, who earned his first win in almost two years at Saturday’s season-opening event, was sixth after the ski jumping discipline but convincingly won the 10-kilometer penalty race to finish in 26 minutes, 54.4 seconds.

Fellow Norwegian Haavard Klemetsen had the best jump but lost time to Moan in the cross-country portion and was 5.0 seconds back in second place.

Eric Frenzel of Germany came in third.

Moan leads the standings with 200 points, 70 ahead of Klemetsen and Lamy Chappuis, who are tied for second.
