In February 1980, the United States Men's Ice Hockey team shocked the world with an unimaginable victory over the heavily favored Soviet Union team in the Winter Olympics. Dubbed as the Miracle on Ice, this game is one of the most memorable moments in the history of sports. The game was held in Lake Placid, New York, and was considered a David and Goliath match-up, as the Soviet Union had won the last four Olympic gold medals in ice hockey. The atmosphere was electric with over 8,500 fans filling the arena. The Soviet team was dominant throughout the entirety of the game, outshooting the US team 39-16. However, against all odds, the goalie for the US team, Jim Craig, made 36 saves to keep the game within reach. The game was tied at 3-3 with only 10 minutes remaining, and then, with just 4:30 left on the clock, Mike Eruzione scored the game-winning goal. The crowd went wild as the US team held on to secure a historic 4-3 victory. The Miracle on Ice will forever be remembered as one of the greatest moments in sports history, as it brought together an entire nation in celebration and unity.
