Historic gold for Hungary in PyeongChang

The Hungarian quartet of Csaba Burján, Viktor Knoch, Liu Shaoang and Sándor Liu Shaolin won the men's 5,000-meter short-track event at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, taking the first ever gold medal for the country in the history of the Winter Games.

It is also the first podium position since 1980 when the ice dancing pair of Krisztina Regõczy and András Sallay became silver medalists in Lake Placid in the United States. The first Hungarian gold is the seventh medal at Winter Olympic Games after two silvers and four bronzes.
