Germany ended Austria's dominance in the ski jumping team event on Monday, taking gold in a down-to-the-wire Olympic competition.

The four-headed German team collected 1041.1 points over two rounds and eight jumps, ahead of defending Olympic champions Austria and a delighted Japanese team, led by veteran Noriaki Kasai.

This ends Austria's nine-year dominance at Olympics and world championships, where the alpine country has won eight straight titles.
