2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi

5-0 after full time. Sweden took advantage of the Slovenians running out of steam and scored 4 goals from 5-on-5.

Have to give the Slovenians a tonne of respect, winning two games and making it to the quarter-finals of your first ever Olympics is a fantastic achievement for anyone, even more so for a nation that only has 148 registered players.

Finland is ruining Putin's party.

Got it on in the background, the Russian coach is definitely gonna be executed for this.

Vladimir Putin is not a happy man right now:

We would have beaten this Russian side yesterday with our team from 4 years ago.

Ole Einar Bjørndalen just equaled Bjørn Dæhlie in being the most successful winter Olympic champion of all time; both with eight gold medals.

edit: actually Bjørndalen (8+4+1) has 1 more medal than Dæhli (8+4+0), making him the most successful.

Certain they just said he's got 13 on BBC?

Another epic Men's Curling win.

I've found a love for curling

YEEEAAAAHHHHH! Womens Curling GBR beat SUI 6-5...GBR win bronze medal..well done!!!


Good Luck Mens Curling GBR in final!!!

Did some good curls.

Figure Skating is corrupt as fuck. If Sotnikova is not blind she definitely should be ashamed to win gold. Hoping to see all the Russians in South Korea 2018

The region of Trøndelag would have been 7th in the medal table at the moment. That's more medals than Sweden alone.

Who cares, there's only one medal that really matters anyway.

Curling final just about to start.

COME ON GBR! GOOD LUCK!

GB having an absolute nightmare, can we just declare?

Might as well, game over and not even halfway ffs.

Farewell Finland, better luck next time!

oh bollocks....never mind GBR! well done lads! :O)

How has Christie been penalised for that? fair enough in the first race she was penalised for causing the crash but the Chinese skater caused this crash and still Christie is penalised? bit of a joke

It makes no sense, can't even appeal so basically they can just pick and choose who goes through without even having to explain why.

Judges just seem to be changing the rules as they go along, wouldn't blame Christie for thinking they have it in for her tbh.

Aye, I actually feel really bad for her as I can't see what was wrong with her race. She's really been picked on hard after that 500m final,

Delighted that Teemu Selänne got to finish his international career with a bronze medal today. A great player, a great Olympian, and most of all a great person. One of few genuine role models left in sports.

Team USA on the other hand were absolutely lackadaisical out there today. They should be ashamed of themselves.

I love Tuukka Quite annoyed with the BBC coverage of the 3rd place match though. They showed 1st third of the game and then changed to a different sport and did not even have it on red button.
