The U.S. men’s hockey team squandered a late third period lead and lost its world championship semifinal to Germany in overtime, missing a chance to win its first gold or silver medal at worlds since 1950.

Germany won 4-3 on Frederik Tiffels‘ goal at the 7-minute, 32-second mark of overtime. Marcel Noebels had tied it with 1:23 left in regulation after Germany pulled goalie Mathias Niederberger.

Germany plays Canada in Sunday’s gold-medal game in Tampere, Finland. Alex Tuch, Rocco Grimaldi and Michael Eyssimont scored for the U.S., which plays Latvia for bronze Sunday.

The U.S. has lost all 12 of its world championship semifinals since the IIHF reinstituted a bracketed playoff round in 1992.
