* At the 2010 Olympic Games, the Canadian Women's Hockey Team won 2-0 against the American team in the gold medal game. After Team USA received their silver medals and bouquets, the entire audience (who were mostly Canadian) chanted "USA! USA!" in appreciation. The team responded to the crowd by raising their bouquets in thanks. Video [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpMxF20x5wk here.]]
* The Czech Republic ice-hockey team crossed swords with Canada in the semi-final of Ice Hockey Olympic Tournament in Nagano 1998. During the nerve-biting penalty shootouts, the bench of Czech players did a line version of GroupHug, all putting their arms around their neighbours, [[ManHug united as one man and emotionally supporting each other]]. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zb9-hbwmb0Y&t=3m50s Have a look here.]] Many ice-hockey teams started doing the same later at key moments of important matches. Both teams were strong but Canada was favoured. DarkhorseVictory made it all the more heartwarming.
