Marcel Kittel was a happy man after collecting his second stage win in the Volta Ao Algarve.
Kittel took the win with his Etixx Quick Step team mate Tony Martin keeping his lead over Team Sky's Geraint Thomas by three seconds going into the final stage.
Speaking to his team's press office, Kittel said: “I can’t find the words to express my happiness.
"We did a great race today and we showed again a fantastic team spirit. We can all be very proud of what we achieved.
"It was a pretty fast and chaotic finale. Fabio Sabatini risked a lot to bring me into a good position, and I can’t thank him enough for his effort. He took me to the front with one kilometre to go and did an incredible lead-out, leaving me to open my sprint in the final 200 meters and finish off the job.”
