Spain have qualified for the Women’s Olympic Football Tournament after joining Paris 2024 hosts France in reaching the final of the UEFA Women’s Nations League.
The world champions sealed their place in style with an emphatic 3-0 victory over the Netherlands in which three of the team’s FIFA Women’s World Cup stars – Jenni Hermoso, Aitana Bonmati and Ona Batlle – found the net.
In the other semi-final, Germany missed their chance to progress to Paris 2024, for now at least, thanks to a 2-1 defeat to France, who – as hosts – were already assured of their place at the upcoming Olympics.
The Germans will now do battle with old rivals the Netherlands for Europe’s final spot at the 2024 Games on Wednesday 28 February, while the French and Spanish face off for the Nations League title.
