NBC Sports has officially unveiled its Olympic soccer commentator lineup for the 2024 Summer Olympics. The opening ceremony for the upcoming games in France is set for July 26th. Men’s soccer, however, will kick off two days prior and women’s soccer is then scheduled to begin on July 25th.

The American men will be represented mostly by players under the age of 23. Teams are also allowed a maximum of three players over this particular age on the roster as well. The Stars and Stripes are set to initially face hosts France on the first day of the tournament. Along with the tough opponents, the United States men’s team will also play New Zealand and Guinea in Group A.

On the women’s side, the full USWNT is set to feature at the Olympics. The Americans have been placed in Group B of the tournament alongside Australia, Germany, and Zambia. Germany and the USWNT are both currently ranked inside the top five of FIFA’s latest rankings.

Champion, Foudy team up for USWNT coverage at the tournament

Ahead of the Summer Olympics that begin in July, NBC Sports has released its full lineup of soccer commentators for the games. Popular play-by-play announcer Jon Champion will call women’s soccer matches for the network. It is set to be Champion’s first-ever NBC appearance during the summer competition. It was previously revealed that the British commentator would skip Euro 2024 to work the Olympics for NBC.

Champion will be joined in the booth alongside analyst, and former USWNT star, Julie Foudy. Marisa Pilla is scheduled to work with the duo as a reporter. Foudy and Pilla have both previously handled Olympic matches for the American network.

On the men’s side of the coverage, Joe Speight will be the play-by-play announcer for games involving the United States. The respected commentator is set to be joined by analyst Tim Howard. The former USMNT star goalkeeper has been working for NBC’s Premier League coverage since 2020. Tiffany Blackmon will join the duo as a reporter for Team USA men’s soccer.
