Heraldo de Madrid - Swiss Von Allmen pips Odermatt to Val Gardena downhill

Switzerland's Von Allmen clocked a time of one minute and 58.67 seconds immediately after Odermatt had briefly gone top with a time which ended up being 0.30sec off the winning pace.

Italian Florian Schieder completed the podium, 0.98sec behind Von Allmen.

Von Allmen, the reigning downhill world champion, reversed the result from Thursday's downhill on the same Saslong piste when he finished second behind Odermatt who claimed his 50th World Cup win.

Odermatt, in great form ahead of February's Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics, still leads Von Allmen by 50 points in the downhill standings as he attempts to retain the discipline title for the second straight year.

And the 28-year-old also extended his lead at the top of the overall standings to 463 points over Henrik Kristoffersen who did not compete on Saturday.

Kristoffersen will aim to cut that gap on Sunday and Monday as the men's tour moves across northern Italy to Alta Badia which will host a giant slalom and a slalom.

After reaching his half century of World Cup wins on Thursday, World Cup champion Odermatt is joint fourth in the all-time men's list behind Ingemar Stenmark (86), Marcel Hirscher (67) and Hermann Maier (54).

Women's ski star Mikaela Shiffrin holds the overall record with 105 World Cup wins.
