The USA women’s soccer team will be back in a major tournament final when it faces Brazil on Saturday for the 2024 Olympic soccer gold medal in Paris. It will be the first time since 2019 that the U.S. women have reached an Olympic or World Cup final.
Under new USWNT manager Emma Hayes, and led by its attacking star trio, Sophia Smith, Trinity Rodman, and Mallory Swanson, the USA has won all five matches at the Olympics thus far and can cap a magical run with a victory at the Parc des Princes.
Brazil are the No. 9-ranked team in the world and a surprise finalist after beating the host nation France in the quarterfinals and defending World Cup champions Spain in the semis. They pulled off both upsets without team legend Marta who was suspended for receiving a red card.
The USA and Brazil have a history of meeting in major tournaments, and specifically in Olympic finals, having faced off in 2004 and 2008 for the gold medal. The Americans came away with the prize on both occasions, and Brazil will be hoping that things will be different this time.

The American women are aiming for a record fifth Olympic soccer gold
The USA are looking to end a 12-year Olympic gold medal drought when they face Brazil in the final of the 2024 Paris Games on Saturday. The last time the American women went home with a gold medal was in 2012 at the London Games where they downed Japan in the final.
Given the stakes of Saturday’s women’s soccer final, Olympic TV broadcasters NBC have moved the match to their national network channel. Especially given the favorable kickoff time of the game in the USA, it has all the makings of an event that will have the nation tuning in.
