In the women's event, the Swede found herself a long way from the front of the pack after the 750-metre swim.

She came out of the water after 10min 4sec with 30 opponents in front of her before spending just over a minute in the transition period before the 20-kilometre cycle element.

Another sub-par performance followed on the bike as she came off at the 30:39 mark but a blistering run saw her surge across the line in first place.

World junior champion Månsson's 16:34 time on the final five kilometre run leg ensured she recorded a leading time of 58:45.

She was then followed across the line by world number 106 Noelia Juan.

The Spaniard was just one second behind her following a remarkable sprint finish that also saw Belgium's Jolien Vermeylen take bronze in 58:50.

The result marks Månsson's second World Cup win of her career as she seals $7,500 (£5,800/€6,800) in prize money.

Juan and Vermeylen take home $6,000 (£4,670/€5,470) and $4,500 (£3,500/€4,100), respectively, with the men's podium receiving the same amount. 

In the men's event, Lehmann produced a solid performance across all three sections.

He started nicely with a third-fastest swim of 8:45 before a 27:42 bike which allowed his compatriot Gábor Faldum to catch up by 13 seconds.

A 14:36 run, slower than only France's Maxime Hueber-Moosbrugger by four seconds, then sealed victory for Lehmann with an overall time of 52:18.

Spanish duo Sergio Baxter Cabrera and Alberto Gonzalez Garcia crossed the line in 52:26 and 52:32 respectively, to make up the top three.

The World Cup circuit is set to continue in South Korea with an event scheduled for August 5 and 6 in Yeongdo.
