Women’s hockey: U.S. beats Sweden 2-1 to advance to U18 Gold Medal Game
Bella Fanale made two second-period goals for the U.S. Under-18 women’s team in the semifinal against Sweden on Saturday, providing the Americans a 2-1 win and a ticket to the Gold Medal Championship Game.
Haley Box, a forward from Eden Prairie, Minn., helped create a 2-on-1 opportunity in the slot late in the first period with a pass to Evelyn Doyle, but it bounced off the pads of Sweden goalie Maja Helge.
U.S. team captain Fanale made the game’s first goal in the second period, and both Sweden and the U.S. each added one more before the next intermission.
With Canada’s 4-2 win over Czechia, they earned the other final spot, and will face the U.S. at 11 a.m. CST on Sunday, viewable on NHL.
