Yhdysvallat otti raskaasti voiton Zambiasta avausottelussa 2024 kesäolympialaisissa, mutta mitä muuta odottaa avajaisissa?

2024 kesäolympialaiset ovat vihdoin käsillä, ja Yhdysvaltojen naisten jalkapallojoukkue aloitti turnauksen täydellä teholla voittaen Zambian selvästi 3-0! Tämä avausottelu osoitti, että USWNT on kääntänyt uuden lehden viime vuoden huonosta maailmancupista, ja joukkue ratkoo uhkakuvia naamallaan. Zambialaisille ei jätetty mahdollisuuksia, ja voitto synnytti suurta riemua joukkueen faneissa ympäri maailmaa.

Samaan aikaan valmistautuminen Pariisin upeaan avajaisseremoniaan on huipussaan. Tuhannet urheilijat seilaavat Seine-joen vartta pitkin, kun he saapuvat näyttävään avajaisseminaariin, joka on ennustettu olevan yksi kunnianhimoisimmista koskaan järjestetyistä. Kuitenkin, mikään ei voita Yhdysvaltojen naisten jalkapallojoukkueen voittokulkua, joka on nyt saanut fanit innokkuuteen ja odotukseen.

Seuraava kysymys kuuluu: kuinka voit katsella avajaisseremoniaa ja kaikki itse kisat? 2024 kesäolympialaiset lanseeraavat monia kanavia, suoratoistopalveluja ja ohjelmakirjastoja, jotta voit seurata suosikkisi hyppäämistä voittoon tai vaikkapa LeBron Jamesin marssimista koko joukkueen edessä. Jadi, turnaus on täynnä mukavia hetkiä ja pelihimoa, joka saa koko maailman sykkimään!

Mitä tulee Yhdysvaltojen performansseihin aiemmissa olympialaisissa, voimme vain muistella vuoden 2021 Tokion kisoja, joissa naisten joukkue ei onnistunut yhtä hyvin. Nyt joukkue on aivan erilainen, ja sen alin fokusoituminen ja tiimihenki ovat huipussaan. Tämä muutos tarjoaa myös Zambialle valtavan mahdollisuuden oppia ja kasvaa tuleviin otteluihin, ja kuka tietää, nähtämmekö heidät joskus olympiakentillä menestyvinä?

Mielenkiintoista on myös se, että Yale-yliopiston soutujoukkue on vuonna 2024 mukana kisoissa kuin aikamatka, tasan sata vuotta sitten he voittivat olympiakultaa Pariisissa. Tämä fakiiri kattaa melkein kaiken, ei vain jalkapalloa, vaan myös soutua, ja tuo mukanaan tarinoita menneiltä vuosilta!
