The men’s tournament is smaller, with 16 youth teams each allowed three overage players. Players must be born on or after Jan. 1, 2001, with three exceptions per team. This setup ensures a mix of rising stars and seasoned players, though many opt-out to rest after grueling seasons.

Will the young Spanish superstar 17-year-old Lamine Yamal shine again in Paris and win an Olympic Title?

Men’s Olympic Soccer: A History of Surprising Champions

Men’s Olympic soccer dates back to 1900 in Paris. In total, 19 countries have won a gold medal in men’s soccer.

Six nations have won Olympic gold multiple times:

– Hungary and Great Britain (x3)

– Soviet Union (x2)

Three South American nations won in successive years:

– Uruguay: 1924, 1928

– Brazil: 2016 (on home soil with Neymar scoring the winning penalty), 2020

Mexico will not be in Paris 2024, unfortunately, for a chance to repeat their triumph in London 2012… Maybe next time in Los Angeles 2028?
