Denmark's Dazzling Victory: A Historic Upset in Ice Hockey

In a historic upset, Canada was unexpectedly eliminated from the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) World Championship by co-hosts Denmark, losing 2-1 in the quarter-finals. This match is already being hailed as one of the biggest surprises in tournament history.

Meanwhile, Sweden secured a commanding 5-2 victory over the Czech Republic, setting themselves up for a thrilling showdown against Team USA, who had previously defeated Finland 5-2 in Stockholm that same day.

With less than three minutes remaining, Denmark was a goal down before Nikolaj Ehlers equalized, and Nick Olesen clinched the game-winner just 49 seconds from the buzzer. Denmark now moves on to face Switzerland, following Switzerland's dominant 6-0 triumph over Austria. The semi-finals are scheduled for Saturday at Stockholm's Avicii Arena.
