Spain
The Spanish national team is rightly considered one of the strongest teams in the world and was a serious contender for the gold medals. The "Red Fury" is the reigning world champion and the winner of the UEFA Nations League.
On the other hand, this is the first time the Spanish national team is participating in the Olympic Games. They had no issues during the group stage, securing victories against Japan (2-1), Nigeria (1-0), and Brazil (2-0).
In the quarterfinals, Spain faced Colombia. The regular time ended in a 2-2 draw, with Spain advancing to the semifinals after winning the penalty shootout. However, in the semifinal against Brazil, the Spanish team lost 2-4.
Germany
The German team consistently ranks among the medal contenders at the Olympic Games. The history of the German team includes three bronze medals in 2000, 2004, and 2008, as well as a gold medal at the Rio Olympics. In the first round of the tournament, Germany defeated Australia 3-0 and comfortably beat Zambia 4-1 in the final group match.
However, the second-round match against the USA was a disaster, as the American team thrashed "Die Nationalelf" 4-1. In the first round of the playoffs, Germany faced the reigning Olympic champions, Canada. The match ended 0-0 in regular time, and the Germans won in the penalty shootout.
In the semifinals, Germany again played against the USA, but this time they were more solid in defense. The regular time ended in a 0-0 draw, and the USA secured the victory with a goal in the 5th minute of added time.
