2024 Olympic schedule for Aug. 9: Team USA women set for semifinal battle with Australia as more track finals loom

Medal table | Olympic schedule | Olympic news | How to watch

The 2024 Paris Olympics are nearly over, but Friday has plenty of action to follow in France as we start to wrap things up.

Team USA is back in action looking to extend their remarkable Olympic winning streak on Friday with a semifinals matchup against Australia, where they’ll attempt to match the men’s basketball team and book a return trip to the gold medal game.

Men’s soccer will wrap up, with an all-European final between France and Spain. Several more track and field medals will be handed out, too, including in both the men’s and women’s 4×100 meter relays.

Here’s what we’re looking forward to most on Friday in Paris:

The U.S. women’s basketball team will attempt to match the men’s side and earn a return trip to the gold medal game on Friday in Paris.

Team USA, which has now won an incredible 59 straight Olympic games, will take on Australia in their semifinals matchup on Friday. The winner will then advance to take on either France or Belgium in the gold medal game on Sunday.

The United States rolled past Nigeria on Wednesday behind 20 points from A’ja Wilson, who went 9-of-11 from the field in the 14-point win. Australia flew past Serbia in their quarterfinal matchup. The Opals have won three straight after their opening loss to Nigeria, though they’re 0-20 all time against Team USA.

The United States and Australia will start at 11:30 a.m. ET on USA Network. France and Belgium will follow suit at 3 p.m.

It took comeback wins for both of them to get there, but France and Spain will compete for a gold medal in the men’s soccer final on Friday.

France rallied to beat Egypt 3-1 thanks to two extra time goals in their semifinal match on Monday night. Spain followed suit with a 2-1 win over Morocco, which came after a pair of goals in the second half. Spain is now back in the gold medal game for the second straight time, though they fell to Brazil in the Tokyo Games. France hasn’t been to the gold medal game since it won in Los Angeles in 1984.

Several more track and field medals will be handed out on Friday. The U.S. men’s 4×100 meter relay team will attempt to win a gold medal at 1:45 p.m. ET, though they’ll have to do so without star Noah Lyles — who announced on Thursday night that, after his bronze medal finish in the 200-meter final, he had tested positive for COVID-19. The women’s 4×100 meter relay team made it into the finals, too, thanks to a late surge from Sha’Carri Richardson in their qualifying race on Thursday.

Alexis Holmes will compete in the women’s 400-meter final at 2 p.m. Rai Benjamin is set for the men’s 400-meter hurdles final, too, which will close out the night at 3:45 p.m. ET. The women’s shot put final, men’s triple jump final and women’s 10,000-meter final are also set for Friday afternoon in Paris.
