OLYMPIC GAMES
2024 Olympics in Paris schedule today, August 6: events, sports, times, TV, stream and how to watch
Take a look at what’s happening on day 11 of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, where Team USA are now sitting top of the medal table.
The United States women’s national team continue their bid for a record-extending fifth soccer gold on day 11 of the Paris 2024 Olympics, and the USA’s men’s basketball team are also among America’s headline acts today.
Can USWNT reach gold-medal match?
Having edged past Japan with a 1-0 extra-time win in Saturday’s quarter-finals, the USWNT face Germany in a box-office last-four clash at the Stade de Lyon. A final against Spain or Brazil awaits the winner.
In the men’s basketball, meanwhile, LeBron James and Co. progressed to the knockout stages as Group C winners, and now face Brazil in the quarter-finals at Paris’ Accor Arena. Steve Kerr’s men are chasing the USA’s fifth straight Olympic title.
Americans chasing athletics medals
On a day on which 15 golds are up for grabs across eight sports, today’s medal events include five track and field finals, with American interest in all but one of them. In the women’s 200m, for example, Tokyo 2020 bronze medallist Gabby Thomas leads a trio of American sprinters, with Brittany Brown and McKenzie Long also among the event’s final eight.
Seeking to top the medal count for the seventh time in the last eight Summer Olympics, Team USA now have a total of 21 golds - and have leapfrogged China at the head of the Paris 2024 table.
