An interesting twist is that UEFA uses the World Cup as its Olympic qualifiers. Top 3 go to Tokyo next year.

So assuming the US beats France (big assumption), then the 3 winners of the other matches will go. If the US loses, then the finalists and the winner of the third place match goes. If you thought third place matches suck, that one will not.

The Olympics is a 12 team tournament and New Zealand gets a spot. Insane.
