France U23:

France will face neighboring Spain in the football final of the Paris 2024 Olympics at Parc des Princes. Both teams overcame North African opponents to reach this historic showdown, aiming for their second-ever Olympic football gold.


After a thrilling quarter-final victory against Argentina, Thierry Henry's team narrowly avoided a playoff for bronze by defeating 10-man Egypt in Lyon, thanks to two crucial goals from Jean-Philippe Mateta. France, seeking their first football gold since 1984, has shown dominance throughout the tournament with a perfect group stage record, conceding only one goal.


Eager to continue their golden run in Paris, France will be motivated for Friday's final, yet their opponents, Spain, are equally determined to cap off a successful year.

Spain U23:

Spain's Olympic journey has been impressive, mirroring their senior squad's recent successes. Despite a lone defeat in the group stage with a rotated lineup, La Roja secured convincing wins over Japan in the quarter-finals and mounted a comeback against Morocco in the semis.

Having been Olympic champions on home soil in 1992 and silver medalists at Sydney 2000, Spain now aims to go one better than their painful loss to Brazil in Japan three years ago. With key players like Fermin Lopez and Alex Baena, who were pivotal in their Euro 2024 triumph, Spain enters the final with confidence, despite the pressure of facing the host nation.
