The draw for the football tournaments for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games took place this Wednesday evening.
As the start of the Olympic Games approaches, the French football teams are focused on their opponents. The draw for the group stages of the two Olympic tournaments for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games took place this Wednesday at headquarters of the event organizing committee.
Many personalities from French-speaking sport were present for the occasion, like Youri Djorkaeff and Didier Drogba.
An affordable group for Thierry Henry's men
The French men's team coached by Thierry Henry could include some high-sounding names. Kylian Mbappé, Antoine Griezmann, Olivier Giroud and Karim Benzema have all expressed their desire to participate in the event.
And the Blues inherit a rather affordable group on paper. Logically placed in Group A as host country, Thierry Henry's men will face the United States, the winner of the match between Guinea and a team from the Asian continent, and New Zealand. In the event of qualification, the tricolors could face Argentina, which is placed in group B.
Group A : France, United States, Guinea-Asian team play-off winner, New Zealand.
Group B : Argentina, Morocco, Asia 3, Ukraine.
Group C : Asia 1, Spain, Egypt, Dominican Republic.
Group D : Asia 2, Paraguay, Mali, Israel.
