Norway's Surprising Curling Victory over Canada | Day -1 | Winter Olympics 2018 | PyeongChang

📺 Re-live ALL the incredible #Paris2024 action ➡️ go.olympics.co...
Canada and Norway met in their first round robin match of the mixed doubles Curling. Canada's Kaitlyn Lawes and her team mate John Morris both won curling Gold in the Team event at the 2014 Sochi Games, and so were expected to challenge for a medal. But, their opponents Kristin Skaslien and Magnus Nedregotten showed early on that they would be difficult to beat.
Norway went into the final end with a one-point lead, but Canada had the hammer. Skaslien's last delivery saw two of their stones stop close to each other in the centre of the house, making it extremely difficult for their opponents to remove them. Lawes throw didn't make enough contact with her own stone to knock it into the button, which gave Norway two points and a surprise victory. It ended Canada 6, Norway 9.

[@Cooliealot]

This might looks silly for people that don't have this sport. I looked up Wikipedia about this and i think the sport really relies on strategy, teamwork, and precision. The sweeping move is detrimental in curling because it determine the friction of the rocks making it slower or faster, and by the look of this whenever they stop sweeping the rocks go slower and the other way around. I am fascinated and really want to try this sport. Hopefully my dream of working abroad to finland could lead me to try this.

I actually find this sport fascinating. Don’t see why people hate on sports that are “not normal” like not all sports have to be about running or throwing, hitting, or kicking a ball, it can be something like this. What I didn’t enjoy though was the woman in white yelling at her partner like that, the woman on the other team spoke normally and her partner heard her just fine. But who knows? That may just be how they communicate, I just don’t like the sound of it.
