Tadej Pogacar caps stunning season with fifth straight Il Lombardia triumph

Slovenian cyclist Tadej Pogacar has won the Il Lombardia race for the fifth consecutive year, equaling Fausto Coppi's record of victories in the season-ending Monument race. Pogacar's triumph comes after a decisive attack on the Passo di Ganda climb, where he was able to distance the rest of the field and cross the finish line first in Bergamo. With this victory, Pogacar has become the first rider since Eddy Merckx in 1975 to win three Monuments, the Tour de France, and a world title in a single season, further cementing his status as one of the most dominant cyclists of the current era.
