On Thursday in Pyeongchang, the U.S. women’s national hockey team earned a victory 20 years in the making when it beat Canada in an overtime shootout to win the Olympic gold medal.
The physical, electric, instant-classic of a game was capped off by a jaw-dropping shootout goal by Jocelyne Lamoureux-Davidson, who employed a move that she dubbed “Oops, I Did It Again” to sneak the puck past Canada’s goalie. It was another epic installment of one of the best rivalries in sports, and a monumental victory for a U.S. team that has defeated Canada to capture seven of the last 10 world championships, but hasn’t topped its northern neighbors in the Olympics since 1998.
