It wasn't the beatdown they expected, but Team USA hockey defeated Denmark 6-3 on Saturday to remain undefeated at the 2026 Winter Olympics. The U.S. fired 47 shots on Denmark's goalies, Mads Sogaard who exited the game in the third period with an apparent injury and Frederik Dichow. The U.S. sits atop Group C at the Olympics with two wins. Jack Eichel had a team-high two points (one goal, one assist) as 13 different Americans got on the scoresheet.

Team USA men's hockey easily handled Latvia in their opening game of the 2026 Winter Olympics, securing a 5-1 victory. The focus now turns to their second round-robin game against Denmark on Saturday at 3:10 p.m. ET. Denmark lost their opener 3-1 to Germany but played better than the scoreline suggests. They outshot the Germans 38-25 but struggled to contain the star power of Leon Draisaitl and Tim Stutzle.

Protests are also planned in the Danish cities of Aarhus, Aalborg, and Odense. The demonstration in Greenland's capital, Nuuk, is scheduled to begin at 4:00 pm (1500 GMT), according to the organizers, who say it is "against the United States' illegal plans to take control of Greenland." Demonstrators are set to march to the US consulate carrying Greenlandic flags. At least 900 people in Greenland said on its Facebook page that they planned to participate in the event.

Germans may have a hard-won reputation for being Europe's most enthusiastic nudists, but a survey suggests Danes are not only more accepting of stripping off in public, but more likely to have actually done so. The YouGov survey of six western European countries the UK, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy and Spain found that Danes were the most likely to say it was perfectly OK to bare all in public places and to have followed through.

The Netherlands took another commanding step toward World Cup 2026 qualification with a 4-0 win over Finland in Amsterdam. Ronald Koeman's side blew their visitors away with a ruthless first-half display, and a late Cody Gakpo strike capped off a dominant evening for the Oranje. It took just eight minutes for Donyell Malen to open the scoring, curling home from Memphis Depay's clever one-two. Depay then turned provider again nine minutes later, delivering a perfect free-kick for Virgil van Dijk to head in and double the lead.

Marko Arnautovic scored four goals as Austria stormed to a 10-0 rout over San Marino in World Cup qualifying on Thursday. Ralf Rangnick's side went two points clear at the top of Group H, and massively improved their goal difference, with a stunning victory at Ernst-Happel-Stadion. Romano Schmid opened the scoring seven minutes in, with Arnautovic getting his first of the match just one minute later. Stefan Posch then played a role in each of the next three goals, setting up Michael Gregoritsch before getting a 12-minute brace for himself. Konrad Laimer also netted on the stroke of half-time to give Austria a six-goal advantage at the break.
