Spain continued their recent dominance of international football by edging past France – who fought back from 3-1 down to force extra time – to win Olympic men’s gold at Paris 2024.
France took an early lead but in a pulsating match they quickly fell two goals behind before half-time, then mounted a stunning second-half comeback.
However, Thierry Henry’s side could not see the job through as Spain substitute Sergio Camello kept calm in the most tense of situations to score twice in the extra period.
Both goals sparked jubilant celebrations among the Spanish, who mobbed Rayo Vallecano forward Camello as they won Olympic gold for the first time since 1992.
The thrilling triumph continued Spain’s success, little over a month after they won the men’s European Championship, beating England in the final.
They also won the men’s under-19 European title last month, while the women’s team lifted the World Cup last year.
In contrast, the mood of the hosts was initially one of deflation before a more celebratory tone as the squad received their silver medals.
“It wasn’t easy to build this team up, but I’m proud of the work we did,” said Henry.
