Sweden's women's national hockey team, Damkronorna, suffered a defeat in the Olympic semifinals against the United States. The American team overwhelmed Sweden with three goals scored in just three minutes during the final period.
According to coach Chris Härenstam, it was those crucial final minutes that turned the tide: 'It's slipping away here at the end of the period,' he commented after the US team's third goal. The loss means Sweden will now compete for the bronze medal.
