Despite a slower start than expected, the United States held serve in its 6-0 quarterfinal win over Italy. Can Sweden give the Americans more of a scare with a trip to the gold medal game on the line?

The winner of Monday’s women’s hockey semifinal contest between the USA and Sweden will be guaranteed at least a silver medal, but gold is the name of the game for the United States. The U.S. has remarkably allowed only one goal through five games in Milan.

Despite a few blowouts, the USA knows just one off day could keep them from their gold medal dreams at the Olympics. Sweden also hasn’t lost, and the Swedes’ +16 goal differential in the preliminary round came the closest to rivaling the USA’s mark of +19.

The loser of Monday’s contest will reluctantly head to the bronze medal match, where a chance to leave Milan with a win will await.
