In Group C, Team USA faces Germany while Denmark takes on Latvia.

In midtown Toronto, O’Grady’s on Church was hosting a watch party. 

“Grab your friends, wear your jerseys, and enjoy the game with fellow fans in a lively atmosphere. Let’s make some noise and support our team together,” the pub said in its event listing.

While Real Sports Bar wasn’t hosting an official party, it was bumping on Sunday morning as fans cheered on some early Canada success.
