Saychon Phothilath wins in South Africa


  Saychon Phothilath was the fastest rider in the peloton when Mpumalanga Golden Boys (U23) was coming to an end. Saychon Phothilath speeded up and managed to get several meters ahead of the competitors in the ordinary sprint. Behind him was Serge Kéré, Sigue Sigue Sputnik, struggling with Araya Medhin Yemane Abebe from Stroopwafel. Araya Medhin Yemane Abebe saw his competitor get across the finishing line only a few miliseconds before himself, while both of them could only watch while Saychon Phothilath raised his hands for the victory.
As we got close to the finishing line, I suddeny realized I had my chance today said a surprised winner. When the other sprinters launched the sprint, I just followed along, and I even managed pass them in the end.
Team Unibet's manager, Michel Lafis, was satisfied after the result in Mpumalanga Golden Boys (U23). Saychon Phothilath did very well today. Everything turned out as we planned it, and Saychon Phothilath had the power to win, said the manager.
