The USA hockey team became world champions for the first time since 1960

The US national hockey team won a historic victory. For the first time since 1960 and for the third time in history, they became world champions. This tournament was held in Sweden and Denmark, and in the final, the US team defeated Switzerland 1-0 in overtime. The only goal scored by Tage Thompson in the same overtime period brought a historic victory for the US.

Note that the last time the US team achieved this was in 1960, when they held the Squaw Valley Winter Olympics and the world championship together. Until now, the world championship for the US had been elusive, but this year's result raised their history to a new level.

Sweden, on the other hand, won the bronze medal in the fight for third place, defeating Denmark 6-2. This season, the Swedish team secured this bright success in its history.

The world championship in hockey has been held since 1920 and has a very long history. The team with the most wins is Canada, which has won 28 times. The USSR/Russia has won 27 world championships. Czechoslovakia/Czech Republic has won 13 times, Sweden 11 times, Finland 4 times, the USA 3 times, and Great Britain and Slovakia 1 time each.

This historic victory by the USA opened a new era in the world of hockey, and made the team's fans very proud.
