The United States Men’s Olympic Soccer Team begin play at the 2024 Olympics today in a big way, as they take on hosts France in Marseille. The USMNT U-23s hope to get started against a team that they drew back in March as they set the tone in group play.
To win a medal, this match is the kind they will need to win, against the hosts who are also prime contenders to win it all. In the Olympics for the first time since 2008, the USMNt U-23s will be on a big stage. They hope to not be blinded by the lights and the pressure of the stage. The entire stadium will be against them, but they hope to use that energy to come out strong and get the result.
