Olympic hockey fans raise Greenland's flag during USA's dominant win over Denmark, sparking viral reaction

During Team USA’s comeback men’s hockey win over Denmark at the Winter Olympics, two fans raised the flag of Greenland in the stands to protest President Donald Trump’s intent to acquire Greenland for the U.S.

The flag was raised enthusiastically after Denmark took an early lead. However, the U.S. came back to win the game 6-3.

Vita Kalniņa and her husband Alexander Kalniņš, fans of the Latvian hockey team who live in Germany, held up a large Greenland flag during warmups and again when the Danish team scored the opening goal of the preliminary round game against the U.S., which ultimately beat Denmark 6-3.
