The United States women's hockey team rallied to beat Finland 3-1 on Sunday to remain perfect when opening an Olympic tournament.
Finland stunned the Americans with 5.8 seconds left in the first. Hovi Venla scored on a wrister from the slot giving the Finns a 1-0 lead.
Jocelyne Lamoureux-Davidson tied it up for the Americans. She dug the puck out of the corner and skated in front of the net where goalie Noora Raty stopped Monique Lamoureux-Morando's backhander. The forward scored off the rebound past the Finn goalie's right skate at 8:58 in the second.
The Americans took a 2-1 lead with a power-play goal at 11:29. Hilary Knight passed to Kendall Coyne, who put a one-timer top shelf from the edge of the right circle.
Dani Cameranesi sealed it with an empty netter with 13 seconds left.
Team USA will play the Olympic Athletes from Russia on Tuesday before wrapping up the preliminary round against their biggest rival, Canada — winner of the last four Olympic gold medals.
