Jean-Phillppe Mateta headed home the decisive goal in extra time as France beat Egypt 3-1 to qualify for the Olympic men’s football tournament final.
The dramatic finish sets up a world-class final between hosts France and Spain, who beat Morocco 2-1 earlier in the day, at the Parc des Princes in Paris on Friday.
Egypt led through Mahmoud Saber’s 62nd-minute goal at Stade de Lyon and France had hit the frame on three occasions before finally finding a breakthrough when Mateta equalised in the 83rd after Michael Olise played him into the area.
Shortly after the start of extra time, Egypt’s Omar Fayed was shown his second yellow card and was forced off. France took advantage and Mateta scored his second goal of the match with a powerful header at the backpost.
Olise added a third goal in the second period of extra time to seal the win for the hosts, who have won every game they’ve played under manager Thierry Henry at this year’s Olympics. France are seeking the powerhouse soccer country’s second gold medal after winning it all in Los Angeles in 1984.
Egypt are headed to the bronze-medal match against confederation rivals Morocco in Nantes on Thursday.
