The last basketball match of the Paris Olympics 2024 will be the ladies final this afternoon. Just like in the men’s final yesterday, Team USA is expected to win against Team France on their hometurf. Team France will do anything they can to disrupt the heavily favoured Americans.
In the semifinals France got the better of Belgium in overtime (81-75). Valeriane Ayayi hit a big shot from behind the arc in overtime that was crucial for the match. Team France defeated Germany in the quarter finals (71-84). France won the round robin stage with two wins and one loss in group B. Team France lost to Australia and won against Canada and Nigeria. Now the biggest task of the whole Olympics awaits them in the finals, The United States.
Team USA is stacked with talent. A whole lot of talent to be honest. Team USA has easily more talent than any other team at the event. They walked through the round robin (Group C) stage with three wins. Team USA defeated Germany, Belgium and Japan. In the quarter finals USA played against Nigeria and won 88-74. In the semi finals they got the better of Australia and won 85-64.
USA are massively big favourites to win the ladies final at the Paris Olympics today. Team USA are expected to win the match by a margin of 16 points. Players like Wilson, Ionescu, Stewart, Taunasi, Griner to mention a few of them, are so good and versatile. Team USA’s dominance at the event has been monumental. Nobody has threatened them, no games have been down to the wire, yet. Team France does not have the tools that are necessary to make life hard for team USA. Gabby Williams, Marianne Johannes and Valeriane Ayayi are good players but not on the level of the American players. We can expect that France will be coming out swinging hard to disrupt team USA. It will be a more entertaining match if France hit their three pointers.
