Canada upset USA in OT thriller to become women’s ice hockey world champions

• Marie-Philip Poulin scores sudden-death goal to claim title
• Defending champions USA had been 2-0 up in final

Marie-Philip Poulin scored in overtime, and Canada beat the five-time defending champion United States 3-2 on Tuesday night for their first gold medal at the women's hockey world championship since 2012.

Poulin, the Canadian captain, skated down the left side, took a pass from Brianne Jenner and sent it off the crossbar and post before going in. The goal was initially waved off, and play continued in the sudden death 3-on-3 overtime until the buzzer sounded after a video review.
