MATCH PREDICTION
Coached by former Saudi Arabia boss Herve Renard, the French began their bid for a gold medal as hosts of the 2024 Summer Olympics with an eventually tense and hard-fought 3-2 defeat of Colombia. They were 3-0 up by half-time before the Colombians surged in the second-half and they clung on to the victory. They now face a Canadian side that are the defending winners of this tournament but their group stage exit at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup is emblematic of their decline since then and they had to come from behind to defeat an underwhelming and poor New Zealand side the other day. France should ensure quarter-final qualification with a victory in this one.
