What channel is USA vs. France? Start time, TV schedule for USMNT Olympics 2024 match | Sporting News

The USMNT start their 2024 Paris Olympic Games with a tough test up against host nation France in a Group A opener on July 24.

Thierry Henry’s France are amongst the favourites to go on and clinch a gold medal in the tournament but the USMNT will be confident of at least securing a quarterfinal spot in the French capital.

On the back of Euro 2024 and the Copa America, fans of both sides will be hoping for glory, with veteran defender Walker Zimmerman captaining the US and France’s squad including former Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette and new Bayern Munich star Michael Olise.

The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch it, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.
