Here’s how you can watch the seventh-place Olympic women’s hockey game between Sweden and Korea online via live stream
Sadly, the 2018 Winter Olympics is almost over for women’s hockey. It’s been a great tournament filled with priceless memories. But with the start of the seventh-place game of Olympic women’s hockey, it’s time to accept all good things must come to an end. Sweden will face Korea as the two teams battle for pride and a better IIHF ranking.
The unified Korea team has yet to win a game at the Olympics. In fact, they’ve only scored one goal. The crowd and the team are both hoping for a better result this time around. But regardless of how they do, it’s awesome that North Korea and South Korea can unite and have a full hockey team.
Meanwhile, Sweden came into Pyeongchang ranked fifth by the IIHF, so an appearance in the seventh-place game is a bit disappointing for them. They nearly got into the fifth-place game but lost an overtime heartbreaker against Japan.
Regardless of if Sweden wins or loses, they’ll have their worst finish in women’s hockey. They came in fourth place in both 2010 and 2014 after winning a silver medal in 2006 and a bronze in 2002.
