Who are some of the favorites at the 2024 Paris Olympics?
For the first time since 2008, the USMNT has qualified for the tournament and there is hope that a young and talented team can deliver a medal to Team USA as they receive a draw in the group stage, where they will face hosts France in the opening. Two-time world champions Brazil failed to qualify, so hosts France and reigning World Cup champion Argentina are favorites to win gold. The men’s tournament is an Under-23 competition, but three players from each team over the age of 23 can compete for their countries. With Achraf Hakimi, Michael Olise, Julian Alvarez and many other stars competing in the men’s tournament, it’s going to be beautiful.

The USWNT has qualified for the women’s tournament (which allows players of all ages to participate) and is the favorite to win gold in Paris under new coach Emma Hayes, but has not tasted Olympic success since 2012 in London , as Canada is the defending champions. The USWNT faced a very tough group, with Germany, Australia and Zambia ready to push them into the knockout stages. Hosts France should also have a good campaign, while Canada, Brazil, Spain, the current World Cup champion, and Japan should fight for the gold medal.
Who qualified for the women’s tournament at the Paris 2024 Olympics?
There are 12 teams in the women’s tournament, with the USWNT securing its qualification spot by winning the CONCACAF W Championship in 2022. Canada beat Jamaica in a CONCACAF playoff as the defending champions reached the Olympics, while Brazil and Colombia will represent the South America. France qualify as hosts, while Germany and Spain qualify as UEFA Nations League third-placed and finalists respectively. New Zealand will represent the Oceania region, while Japan and Australia will represent Asia and Nigeria and Zambia will fly the African flag after exiting the qualifying tournament.
