Canada’s women’s hockey team was denied a repeat gold medal after a crushing 2-1 overtime defeat to the United States on Day 13 of the Milan Cortina Games.

The deciding goal came about four minutes into overtime after American forward Megan Keller scored a shot past Canadian goalie Ann-Renée Desbiens.

In curling, Canada’s men’s team is heading to the gold medal match.

The team skipped by Brad Jacobs secured its spot in the Olympic final after 5-4 extra-end win over Norway in the semifinals.

Canada will face Great Britain on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Rachel Homan has booked a spot in the women’s semifinals.

After a sluggish start, Homan’s Ottawa-based crew roared into medal contention with five straight wins, culminating in a pivotal 10-7 win over South Korea’s Eunji Gim on Thursday.

Canada hasn’t won a gold medal in men’s or women’s curling since Sochi 2014, when Jacobs and Jennifer Jones led their teams to the top of the podium.

In freestyle skiing, three Canadians have qualified for the women’s halfpipe finals, including Olympic gold medallist Cassie Sharpe who was taken away by sled after crashing in one of her runs.

Calgary’s Amy Fraser also qualified for the final, ranking seventh, where she will be joined by Rachael Karker, of Erin, Ont., who came ninth.
