While Carabaña supported the Dane, the fans present at the Munich Olympic stadium applauded the gesture of the Andorran, who finished last in the race. "I was going to continue. I was in the middle of the race and suddenly my body asked me to stop to help it. It came from within, from my heart and I helped him trying to lift him. Of course, he told me no because it hurt his ankle a lot or the leg. I have removed him as much as possible from the obstacle before the rivals came and that's it," Carabaña explained in front of the media.

Carabaña finished the test in last position with a time of 9'37"74 and very far from the front group. Of course, as a reward he received a standing ovation from the entire stadium thanks to his sporting gesture full of solidarity. The winner was the Italian Osama Zoghlami with 8'30"67.
