For the first time ever a womens World Championship or Olympic final will not be played between Canada and USA.
Canada and USA have played each other in all of the big international finals ever played in women's ice hockey.
But now the domination is broken!
Sweden defeated USA after a penalty shootout in a nailbiter and will play either Canada or Finland in the Olympic final.
"This is unreal!", defenseman Joa Elfsborg shouted right after the game. "You always hope you can beat the Americans one day, but to do it in the semi final of the Olympics that is just fantastic."
