Hosts France take on Spain in a blockbuster men’s football final at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Both countries are searching for their second gold medal at the Summer Games.

The France vs Spain football match in the Paris 2024 Olympics men’s final will be available on live streaming and on TV in Australia. The FRA vs ESP soccer match will take place at the Parc des Princes and will begin at 2:00 AM AEST on Saturday.

France, Olympic champions at Los Angeles 1984, are arriving in the final after beating Egypt 3-1 in extra time. Les Bleus went behind to a Mahmoud Saber goal in the second half before Jean-Phillippe Mateta scored seven minutes before the end to restore parity and force extra-time.

Mateta grabbed his second goal of the night to put France ahead nine minutes into extra time while Michael Olise scored in the 108th minute to confirm their final berth. Les Bleus will enjoy overwhelming support in front of home fans at the Stade de France in search of their third Olympic men’s football medal.

They had also won the silver medal at Paris 1900. On that occasion, however, only two matches were held with Great Britain winning the gold.

France had previously beaten Argentina in a fiercely-contested quarter-final with Mateta scoring in the fifth minute. They won all three group-stage fixtures against the United States of America, New Zealand and Guinea before advancing to the knockout rounds.

Meanwhile, Spain, winners on home soil at Barcelona 1992, are arriving into the final after beating Morocco 2-1 in the semis. Like France, Spain also had to come from behind after conceding a penalty from Soufiane Rahimi in the first half. Youngster Fermin Lopez brought them level with a superb strike before Juanlu Sanchez secured victory just five minutes before the end of the match.

La Roja have also finished runners-up thrice and this will be their second consecutive Olympic men’s football final. They had lost 2-1 to Brazil in the men’s gold medal match at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

Spain blanked Japan 3-0 in the quarter-finals with a brace from Fermin while Abel Ruiz also got on the scoresheet. Their only loss at Paris 2024 came against Egypt in the group stage. A brace from Ibrahim Adel saw Spain suffer a 2-1 loss.

The French defense has been the difference in this year's Olympic Games.

Les Bleus have conceded just one goal the entire tournament in their semifinal victory over Morocco. They block, intercept and limit the number of shots on goal. They make scoring difficult while showing an ability to put the ball in the net almost at will.

Their 11 goals in these Olympics tie them with their opponent, Spain, for most in the tournament.

The biggest issue facing France as it attempts to win its first gold medal since 1984 will be the pressure to win at Parc des Princes. Les Bleus are playing on home soil, in front of what is sure to be a raucous crowd.

Will the pressure to succeed prove too much for the men's team?

Spain is young, possesses excellent ball skills and can exhaust opponents simply by running them around the pitch. Like France, La Roja are excellent scorers who can keep up with opponents, thanks to their ability to find the net quickly.

If the French allow the pressure to get to them, they could easily find themselves in an unfamiliar position in these Olympics: at a deficit.

Still, Spain's defense can be suspect, as evidenced by the fact that it has allowed a goal in every match except its quarterfinal showdown with Japan. That leaves them susceptible to a potent French attack, which could well prove to be the difference.

Ultimately, finding a weakness in the French team is nearly impossible. It has played every facet of the game flawlessly and should be rewarded Friday with a gold medal four decades in the making.
