The French men's football team is set to face Spain in the Olympic final at the Paris 2024 Games, marking their first appearance in an Olympic final since 1984. The match, scheduled for August 9 at 6 PM at the Parc des Princes, promises to be a thrilling encounter.

France, led by coach Thierry Henry, has navigated a challenging path to the final, overcoming teams like the USA and Argentina.
