Orchestrating an Upset is relatively recent history, but it is one of the United State’s rare international wins in best-on-best play and it hasn’t gotten nearly the same treatment the Miracle has. How did they assemble a team to beat Canada, who had previously won 4/5 Canada Cup tournaments?

The movie covers Team USA’s creation and all of the international background going into the World Cup. The US was 0-7 against Canada in previous Canada Cup tournaments and hadn’t beaten their northern rivals in 20 years. A first shift brawl in a round robin game against Canada foreshadowed how the Americans would play for the rest of the tournament.
