- 两队在阿根廷的三场小组赛中有两场得分，在七场预选赛中有四场得分
- 法国队在奥运会上保持了三场零失球，但他们的进球却让人着迷
- 周二，只有乌克兰队的糟糕表现让阿根廷队在比赛中首次不失球
两队都可以在波尔多夺冠
周五，东道主法国队将在波尔多迎战劲敌阿根廷队，届时将迎来令人垂涎的奥运会男子足球四分之一决赛。
亨利的球队在A组以三胜三负的成绩位居榜首，击败了美国、几内亚和新西兰，而且都是零失球。但他们的防守并不像这些结果所表明的那样稳健，毫无疑问，他们将在阿根廷面对最艰难的比赛对手。
哈维尔·马斯切拉诺的球队在B组落后于摩洛哥队，此前他们在首场比赛中戏剧性地、有争议地输给了这个非洲国家。
Almada和Olise为进球带来了希望
阿根廷队击败伊拉克队和乌克兰队晋级八强，蒂亚戈·阿尔马达在这两场比赛中都得分。这位亚特兰大联队的组织者将是对阵法国队的关键球员，因为一切都会通过他，如果空间和时间允许，他可能会伤害法国队。
法国队本身并不缺乏进攻天赋，迈克尔·奥利斯是迄今为止最令人印象深刻的球星之一，因此两位金牌争夺者之间的激烈角逐已经拉开了序幕。
两队向前看都比后面好，看到每支球队都有足够的机会至少进一球也就不足为奇了。
美国队在3比0输给法国队的比赛中击中了木制品，而几内亚队在1比0的失利中因越位失误进了两球，并再次射门得分。与此同时，乌克兰队的糟糕表现让阿根廷队在比赛中唯一一次零封。
- Both teams have scored in two of Argentina’s three group games and four of their seven qualifiers
- France have kept three clean sheets in the Olympic tournament, but their goal has led a charmed life
- Only poor finishing from Ukraine gave Argentina their first clean sheet of the competition on Tuesday
Both teams can bag in Bordeaux
A mouthwatering Olympic men’s football quarter-final is in prospect when hosts France meet bitter rivals Argentina in Bordeaux on Friday.
Thierry Henry’s side topped Group A with three wins out of three, beating the United States, Guinea and New Zealand — all with clean sheets. But they were not as defensively sound as those results suggest and will undoubtedly face their toughest tournament opponent in Argentina.
Javier Mascherano’s men finished behind Morocco in Group B after a dramatic and controversial defeat to the African nation in their opening clash.
Almada and Olise offer hope for goals
Argentina beat Iraq and Ukraine to advance to the last eight with Thiago Almada scoring in both. The Atlanta United playmaker will be a key player against the French as everything tends to go through him and, if allowed space and time, he can hurt Les Bleus.
France are not short on attacking talent themselves with Michael Olise being one of their most impressive stars so far, so the stage has been set for a titanic tussle between two gold medal contenders.
Both teams look better going forward than at the back and it would be no surprise to see each team fashion enough chances for at least a goal apiece.
The US hit the woodwork in their 3-0 defeat to France while Guinea had two goals chalked off for tight offsides and saw another effort cleared off the line in their 1-0 loss. Meanwhile, only poor finishing from Ukraine gave Argentina their only clean sheet of the competition.
