New Delhi: The Paris 2024 Olympics welcomed the world in a groundbreaking opening ceremony on the Seine yesterday, making the city of light a sports stadium. While the world is still enchanted by the artistic extravaganza, the football action has already begun in full swing. For football fans, the wait is over, as the Olympic football tournament action starts again after the grand opening.
On the first day of the football competition, Argentina’s men were denied a late equaliser against Morocco, making headlines. The following day, the women’s competition added to the Olympic football drama. This time, it was about the drone controversy leading to the suspension of Canada’s head coach Bev Priestman. Earlier, the Canadian team was caught spying on the New Zealand training session.
As the Olympic cauldron continues to burn brightly, football matches will return to action today, July 27, setting the tone for an exciting tournament. Fans can expect high-octane encounters as teams battle for a place in the knockout stages.
The men’s Olympic football competition will start at 6:30 p.m., with all 16 teams in action, promising another exciting day. Javier Macherano’s team will be back in action and will look to register themselves on the points table, while hosts France will take on Guinea in the concluding match of the day.
Spain will lock horns with the Dominican Republic in another game, while Morocco, Ukraine, and the United States will also be in action.
