Russia vs USA hockey

                                      Introduction

                In the winter Olympic games taking place in Sochi, Russia, USA Men's Hockey defeated the Russian Hockey team 3-2 in an overtime shoot-out this weekend.  It was the first round of play, but a big victory because of the great importance of the sport of hockey to both countries, especially to Russia.  What is really interesting is that ALL the players on both teams actually play for the NHL in America, but the ones who were born in Russia are playing for the Russian Olympic hockey team.  The Russian team is determined to win a Gold Medal in this sport because it is the sport Russia wants to dominate most of all.  The American team, however, is showing great determination to win too.  The games are going to be exciting to watch, no matter which country you are rooting for.

                                     Opinion

         In my opinion its important that we take gold,but its much more important to Russia because they are hosting the olympics and they want to make there country proud.  To us any place is good for us but in this case its more important for them.  If we were hosting it would be simmalar but not as tragic to us.  They are hosting so its there main porpose to win this game.  This is what they do so they try to do it right.
