Soccer has begun at the 2021 Tokyo Olympic games. Both the men's and women's competition consist of a group stage which comprises groups of four teams which will play a round robin style opening stage. The men's competition has four groups while the women's side has three, but for both competitions the group stage will end with eight teams advancing into the quarterfinals, with the chase for gold becoming a single elimination tournament from that point on.

Both tournaments promise to be exciting competitions full of unlikely upsets, dramatic moments with plenty of surprises along the way. Check out the standings below, and be sure to keep up with who is on track to advance, as well as complete schedule and results until a winner is crowned.
