Olympic women's hockey tournament starts with plumbing problems and illness

The Olympic women's hockey tournament began with disruptions, including a plumbing issue and a game postponement due to illness. Swedish players had to use the German team's locker room facilities due to overflowing toilets. Additionally, a game between Finland and Canada was postponed because several Finnish players contracted a stomach virus. Sabotage was also discovered at the Olympic Village, where pipes for approximately 70 showers were intentionally damaged, leading to an ongoing police investigation.
