The 24-year-old was down in eighth place after the first round in Oslo but executed perfectly in the second round to leap to the top of the standings.

His score of 132 meant he just held off the Austrian duo of Stefan Kraft and Michael Hayboeck for his second World Cup success of the season.

Tande has now moved up to third in the overall World Cup standings, behind leader Kamil Stoch of Poland and Germany's Richard Freitag.

Just 24 hours earlier, Tande joined forces with Andreas Stjernen, Johann Andre Forgang and Robert Johansson in the team event – where they won gold ahead of Poland.

The ski jumpers stay in Norway next week as they head for Vikersund before Planica in Slovenia a week later.
