The stage was set for an epic upset: France led by as many as 10 points in the second half over the heavily favored United States women's basketball team, with the Olympic gold medal on the line.
The home-country crowd was going wild, the play was brutally physical, the stakes were sky-high and history was on the line. The Americans rallied to take the lead, but the game's outcome was going to come down to the final buzzer.
And by a single point, the Americans battled through one of the toughest games they have faced in the Olympics.
