Spain's men take gold after 5-3 win against France in Olympic men's football final.
ADVERTISEMENTSergio Camello struck twice in extra time as Spain took gold in the Olympic men’s football final after a 5-3 win against France on Friday.
The thrilling win at Parc des Princes completed a golden summer for Spanish football - following the senior team's European Championship triumph last month.
Spain, which lost the final to Brazil at the Tokyo Olympics three years ago, became the first European gold medalist in men’s football since it last won the tournament at the Barcelona Games in 1992.
France came back from 3-1 down to send the game to extra time when Jean-Phillipe Mateta equalized from the penalty spot in the third minute of time added on.
But substitute Camello coolly lifted over France goalkeeper Guillaume Restes in the 100th and got his second in the first minute of time added on.
