Thibau Nys pulled away from Joran Wyseure on the final lap Sunday to win his second elite European cyclocross title and lead a Belgian podium sweep in Zeddam, Netherlands.

Nys made his move on the course’s 99-step staircase. Wyseure finished second and Niels Vandeputte took bronze.

The title was Nys’ first at the European championships since winning in Pontevedra, Spain, two years ago.
