After three weeks of intense hockey, the IIHF World Championship 2025 gold medal match is upon us—USA hockey takes on Switzerland, the only team to beat them throughout the entire tournament.
In the knockout stages, the Americans beat Finland 5-2 in the quarterfinals and Sweden 6-2 in the semifinals.
This will be their best chance at securing their first IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship title since 1933.
Young star Cutter Gauthier continues to be a focal point alongside Vancouver Canucks forward Conor Garland.
For Switzerland, a 6-0 win against Austria and 7-0 over the Danish—the same team that eliminated Canada from the tournament.
The Swiss have made the Gold Medal game four times since 2013 but have only left with disappointment and a silver medal—could this be their year?

Read the full Gold Medal game preview.
Sweden earned back-to-back bronze medals earlier today after defeating Denmark. Denmark toppled Canada for their chance to play on the last day of the 2025 IIHF World Championships.
Three goals in the second period for Sweden separated the two, in what was eventually an insurmountable lead.
The Danish team has never placed higher than 8th at the World Championships before and despite the scoreless first period, they were unable to continue holding back Tre Kronor.
