A crazy finale to stage 2 of the Deutschland Tour saw Jhonatan Narváez (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) snatch victory from Riley Sheehan (Israel-Premier Tech) at the last moment, only pipping the US rider on the line after he celebrated too early from a late breakaway.

The Ecuadorian Champion and Sheehan got away in a trio with Søren Wærenskjold (Uno-X Mobility) after the Norwegian attacked a rising road with 7.8km to go. They cooperated to hold off a chase behind from the GC leaders and played out the sprint for the win.
