Miracle On Ice, Newly Discovered Original Live Call



Uploaded by: curtchaplin
Video Description:
Check out this incredible, newly discovered, original play-by-play call of The Miracle On Ice, perhaps the greatest upset in the history of team sports. When the USA shocked Russia, 4-3, at the 1980 Lake Placid Winter Olympics, Curt Chaplin was covering the game as a sports reporter for the ABC Radio Network. Standing on a camera platform in the crowd, he did play-by-play of the entire game into his tape recorder, capturing the event on tape forever. Now, after 25 years, these tapes have been rediscovered and matched to the video. The result is a dramatic, stirring and completely original experience for sports fans all over the world. Now you can relive the #1 sports upset of the 20th Century in a whole new way, through new eyes and a new voice. Still as fresh and exciting as the day it happened. If you know any hockey players or hockey fans, send them the link. They should all see it.

No...it wasn't the semi-final. The medal round at the 1980 Winter Olympics was not single elimination like it is now. At Lake Placid the medal round consisted of 4 teams: USA, Soviet Union, Finland, and Sweden. They played a round-robin format where each team plays each other once. The USA tied Sweden in their first game, beat the Soviets, and then beat Finland to win the group and secure the gold medal. The Soviets took the silver and Sweden finished third...
