The 2024 Olympic women's soccer tournament is set to wrap up in Paris on Saturday with the United States set to take on Brazil in the gold-medal finale.
The USWNT are aiming for a record fifth gold medal in women's soccer and the first since 2012. Brazil, on the other hand, are set to make their third appearance in the final.
While the USWNT has been a dominant force throughout the tournament under new coach Emma Hayes, winning all of their games, Brazil had a rough group stage before beating World Cup holders Spain and hosts France in the knockout rounds.

Team news & squads
Brazil team news
Brazil will be without several key players in the gold medal match, as defenders Antonia, Rafaelle Souza and Tamires are expected to miss out. Moreover, Lauren Leal will need to be assessed after being forced off late in their semifinal clash.
However, the Selecao will receive a major boost with the return of legendary forward Marta, who is set to make her final appearance in a major international tournament after serving a two-match suspension. The 37-year-old icon will be eager to end her illustrious career on a high note.
Gabi Portilho has been a revelation for Brazil, finding the back of the net in their previous two upset victories over France and Spain. The Corinthians striker will look to continue her hot streak and spearhead Brazil's attack against the mighty USA.
