The men´s Olympic hockey have reached the semi-finals, 2 American and 2 European teams are left to compete about the biggest prize in hockey.
In the first game of the evening USA will face last Olympics finalist Finland, USA are undefeated so far in the tournament but had some problems with Switzerland in the quarter-finals winning 2-0 and scoring the first goal in the beginning of the third period. Finland had a extremely tough quarter final against Czech Republic this game also ended 2-0 with the first goal scored late in the third period. Finland's goalie Kiprusoff made 31 saves in the game and if he can play just as good against USA Finland has a great chance playing their second Olympic final in a row.
In the second game Team Canada will play Slovakia for the second spot in the finals, Team Canada started off this tournament badly but crushed Russia in the quarter-finals, winning the game with 7-3 after having 3-0 after only 12 minutes and Russia never got closer than 3-1. Slovakia defeated Sweden in a real upset, Slovakia impressed with their attitude and fighting spirit scoring on 4 shots of 14 and also thanks to great goal tending by Halak. Against Team Canada this Slovakia team is a huge underdog and will probably loose but Canada will have both the support and the pressure of the home audience and that can change things.
