And then there were two.

Spain, fresh off its triumph at the European Championships this summer, will be seeking a gold medal at the Paris Olympics after its 2-1 victory over Morocco on Monday. It will be facing host country France, which beat Egypt 3-1 in the later game.

Spain, the silver medalists from the 2020 Tokyo Games, actually trailed Morocco in the first half after Soufiane Rahimi buried a penalty.

But Spain roared back in the second half, as Fermín López and Juanlu Sánchez scored to send the Spaniards to the final.
