The 21-year-old Eritrean got into a four-man breakaway inside the final 25kms and he was able to get the better of Christophe Laporte (Jumbo-Visma), Dries van Gestel (TotalEnergies) and Jasper Stuyven (Trek–Segafredo). Ad/> Jumbo-Visma were strong favourites to take race — with Wout van Aert in the team — but Laporte was not able to finish it off at the end after being left to lead out the sprint in the final kilometre.
