Latvian living in Sweden. Experienced Swedish patriotism when watched world cup in biathlon on svt this winter. Speaking of the final day with mass starts what was super amazing and emotional for Sweden! 😂
Congratulations again to the Players, Coaches, staff, and people of Latvia. Well deserved and well earned Bronze Medal. Much love and Respect, From Canada!!

Much like many other events in history. No video can do justice to what the atmosphere was like at the time. Glad to be a part of this country and glad I could experience the joy together with everyone! Nākamgad atpakaļ pēc Zelta 🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻
There has just appeared a new GREAT hockey land on the world map, now -- OFFICIALLY! A small step for players -- a giant leap for Latvia. Congratulations! PS. Thank you for help to Ukraine.
Latvian fans go out on the RIga streets to cheer for their champions, we in Poland had to go out on the Warsaw streets to rage against our government last Sunday - i'm happy for you Latvians I envy you and I was really rooting for you! great achievement, great example of a country and spirit!
Mecze w wykonaniu Łotyszy na tym czempionacie, to czysta i najlepsza reklama hokeja! Emocje, dramaturgia i walka o każdy krążek czy kawałek lodowiska! Brawa dla Łotwy i do zobaczenia w 2024 w Ostrawie😉 Pozdrowienia z Polski🇵🇱🏒🇱🇻
It's a long way to the top if you want to rock and roll. Congrats, I am still amazed by 🇱🇻 run in this tournament! I believe Latvia will win gold medal someday, they way they aproach the game, it's only matter of time. ❤️🔥
Thanks, but also its a matter of numbers. Our tiny nation is already a statistical odd-ball outlier by even being in the elite devision. With just 5k professional players and 20-something ice rinks we in theory shouldn't even be in the top league.
I am soooo proud to be a Latvian! :) there is something that big nations will never understand and feel.. and that is the feeling this video gives and shows!
This emotions are hard to describe - there was no moment during the entire tournament when one could think of Latvia losing. We've always believed in winning. But the emotions were just grandiose, the neck tightening, the voice leaving, the hugs, the screams, the cheers, the torrents running through us - the rays of joy, the joy over all of Latvia came out on May 28th. Thousands of fans in Riga center 29th May. and in another countries Latvian have joy. We snub our players at home always with glee. Even if we had won a silver medal, we would have been cheering, like bronze. Love support flows into our Latvians. Thank you jacks and team staff.
Last estimates I heard were at least 30k, probably 37-40k (just at the monument of freedom, those awaiting on the road not included, as far as I understood)
The whole population is 2 million, 30k to 50k people arrived at the monument, around 50k tried to watch it on tv, but the broadcast stopped working. The trams were full of people and most of the city center was blocked due to the “chaos” there. Good event. Proud to be a Latvian!
Просто больше середняки подтянулись. Сейчас уже не 6 команд претендует на медали, а около десяти, а в отдельном матче могут дать бой так и все 16. Норвежцы ведь победили чемпионов мира. Швейцарцы кстати тоже.
Молодцы латыши! Браво! Так держать! Уверен: русские живущие в Латвии - просто в бешенстве! И ещё я уверен: их среди торжествующих - нет! Да... И немцы так же - молодцы!🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
почему вы так считаете? не все русскоговорящие - русские, молодёж которая просто владеет русским языком орала на площадках за латвию (сам был) болел и было всем пофигу у кого какой первый язык
Я латышка, первый язык - русский. Никогда за Россию не болела и не буду! Мы маленькая страна, но мы интегрировались и живём дружно. Puiši malači, lepojos ar mūsu uzvaru!
Потому что все русские проживающие в Латвии - путинисты! Хорошие русские против путинистов, то есть против своих борются. А не находятся рядом с латышами как шпионами притворяясь их "друзьями"! Русские если и радуются то только потому, что латыши стали - третьими а не первыми! Были бы латыши первыми русские не радовались а злились бы. Пока Россия и россияне не откажутся от своих имперских мышлений, амбиций и планов НИ ОДНОМУ русскому не будет ни любви ни доверия! Русские сперва должны покаятся. Но... Они же "великие" а потому покаяние для них это - унижение и позор!
I love how Latvians, Germans, Finns, Czechs, Swedes - you name it - all comment here in an international language - English. Only the russians ruin it with their local hieroglyphs
Well, at least they are happy and congratulating us! :) If a person does not learn languages, that is on them and only shows their narrow look at life! :) But if they are at least sharing positive vibes and energy, it is all that matters!
im okay with you insulting russians that arent happy with latvian win (even though i havent found any comment that isnt congratulating latvia) but dont insult the cyrilic keyboard. if you didnt know, it is used in other countries too, like ukraine.
thats a bit narrow view ,people who congratulate us are good people even if they don't speak english .Do you prefer people who downplay Latvian bronze ,like ones saying with Russia in tournament we would not even got to play for medals while ignoring though wins we had and played great hockey.
@@_cepblu_kapduhajl_7961 Если ты вдруг этот факт как-то упустил, форма правления в Латвийской Республике - парламентарная республика. Поэтому мой голос за меня отдавали представители партии в Сейме, за которую я голосовал. А что тебе в нашем президенте не нравится? Сильно волует, с кем и куда он трахается?
to be honest, team usually from year to year have like only 2 players maybe 3 changed. And opponents werent weak, as you saw that the games were close. Id say, teams who got in semis were already known in group a when groups were announced for this year, but id say, group b was group of death. Cos Swiss, Canada, Czechs, Latvia, Slovaks, Norway. Latvia and Norway less likely to go out, but Latvia and Norway tend to always mess something up for top teams and knock them down from quarter finals, while A group didnt have any team that ever beats a top team, so their top 4 was already known months before tournament.
@@Swarmah you didn't write to my question. this is the first medal for the latvian hockey team. so I wonder if this is the best team they had. or were there other reasons. and this tournament was weaker in terms of participation of top players from nhl
@@amina-pr8xt so you are implying, this was worst tournament skillwise in past 30 years ? Ok, Finland didnt have Aho, Canada didnt have Crosby, like pretty much 2 star players that every tournament do half their teams goals in 1 tournament.
@@Swarmah i don't understand your last sentence. Anyway there is no need to make a WC every year, it's counterproductive, IIHF makes this for economical reasons. In no other sports this happens, a world championship takes place and the best players are not there
@@amina-pr8xt and besides canada having full NHL team, this is like barely anything different from Olympics, when USA and Canada have ''top of the top'' players, and usa always usually get knocked out by these same, half NHL half swedish or finnish league teams before they even have chance to fight for medals. NHL doesnt mean they are the best, when you look at Swiss or Swedish leagues, a lot of times they look far supperior, and we see it often, how czech, swiss or swedish league players just humiliate NHL teams/players

Здорово, новые медалисты, хоккей не стоит на месте.
Наилучшие поздраления Латвии , но не соглашусь с твоим мнением. ЧМ деградирует , нет сильных игроков и на этом фоне середняки одинаковы🤭
