Olympics soccer games today: France vs. Spain highlights Paris Games slate

Soccer will be a major focus on Friday's slate of action at the the 2024 Paris Olympics, with the men's gold medal game and women's bronze medal game both set for August 9.

Paris' iconic Parc des Princes will be a sea of blue, white, and red as France vies for its first gold medal in men's soccer in 40 years. Thierry Henry's side will face Spain, a talented team looking to complete a unique double for the nation's soccer program after the full men's national team won Euro 2024 earlier this summer.

In the women's tournament, the bronze medal match is set to kick off earlier in the day, with two of Europe's best squaring off in Lyon. World Cup champions Spain will be looking to recover from a stunning 4-2 loss to Brazil in the semifinals. Germany, meanwhile, will be in a similar mood after pushing the United States to the limit in a semifinal that was decided by Sophia Smith's extra time game-winner.

Here is everything you need to know about Friday's medal games at the Olympics soccer competition.
