March 1 (Reuters) - ⁠Italy's Sofia Goggia won a women's ⁠Alpine skiing super-G in Andorra ‌on Sunday to stretch her lead in the World Cup standings in the discipline.

Goggia beat ​Germany's Emma Aicher by ⁠0.24 seconds to ⁠go 84 points clear of New Zealand's ⁠Alice ‌Robinson, who could manage only seventh.

Norway's Kajsa Vickhoff Lie ⁠completed the podium in Soldeu, with ​Switzerland's ‌Corinne Suter fourth.

Italy's Federica Brignone, the ⁠Olympic champion ​and a double gold medallist at the Milano Cortina Gamesafter breaking her ⁠leg last April, returned ​to action and was eighth.

Aicher is third in the race for the super-G ⁠crystal globe, 116 points behind Goggia with two rounds remaining worth a total of 200 points.

The win was ​Goggia's second of the ⁠season in super-G.

A men's super-G in ​the German resort of ‌Garmisch-Partenkirchen was cancelled due ​to fog.
