Canada overcame the United States after fighting the two countries on the ski circuit in the tournament game, which proved more than just the ice hockey game.
The four final countries are facing 3-2 in additional time.
On any normal day, this match was a great task for the neighboring two countries that have long been friendly competitors for the ice.
But heating the competition this time was the threat, which was waving on the horizon with an economically harmful commercial war, as well as Donald Trump’s continuous reflections to include Canada and made it the state 51.
Trump himself was invited to attend the match in Boston by the general manager of the United States of America Bill Guerin. The US President was unable to achieve this, but he made the team’s contact point to wish them good luck.
He also repeated his desire to absorb Canada, and write in a social publication of the truth before the game that was hoping that the country was “one day, soon, to become dear and very important, fifty states.”
Canada Public Safety Minister David McGateti later told reporters that he had taken Quip for Trump as a sign that the president was “concerned about the outcome of” the game.
After the victory of Canada, the outgoing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau – which is called “Governor Trudeau” by Trump – was published on X: “You cannot take our country – and you cannot take our game.”
For the masses throughout North America, the final was the “Dream Match”, the ice hockey writer Daniel Nogant Bowman told the BBC. Not since the 2014 winter Olympics has the best men’s ice hockey players from Canada and the United States faces such a game.
Both countries are proud of some of the largest stars in the National Hockey League (NHL), such as the Canadians Mitch Marner, Kunor McDavid, and the Americans Auston Matthews and Jack Echa. The game was an opportunity for this new generation of players to prove themselves.
But in Canada, the game was also a personal character, as it gave both the righteous and exhibitors an opportunity for the national escalation at a time when the country’s sovereignty appears to be threatened by its nearest neighbor.
The first match between Canada and the United States in this championship, which played on February 15 in Montreal, witnessed that the anthem of the American national anthem, which was climbed by Canadian fans, although the broadcaster was asking the fans in advance – in English and French – to show respect for the opposition team.
The vocal protests against the American anthem became a popular scene in Canada during the past month since Trump threatened a 25 % tariff for all Canadian goods.
When it comes to singing the Canadian anthem, the fans – including Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau – appointed him to the top of their lungs.
Then three battles on ice broke out in the first nine seconds of the game between American and Canadian players. It was an amazing scene, even with ice hockey standards where the battles are common.
Matthew Takchuk, the player of the United States of America, who was among the participants in the quarrels, told reporters after that that his team needs to provide a message that “our time is now.”
Perhaps the highest message sent on that day was the decisive victory for the Team Usa 3-1 team against Canada.
Few Canadians appeal to the extent of the ice hockey of the country’s national identity.
Sports served as a background for some of the most national moments in the history of Canada, such as the goal of Sydney Crossby’s additional medal in the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.
Historically, Canada had the upper hand against the United States. The two countries have met 20 times in the best tournaments since the 1976 Canada Cup, when Canada won 14 of those games.
