Fab five: It's their last game together, and U.S. women's soccer stars Mia Hamm, Brandi Chastain, Julie Foudy, Joy Fawcett and Kristine Lilly hope it's a golden one against Brazil in the final. Together since the late '80s, the quintet says this is their last Olympics together.

TV: 12:30 p.m., Ch. 5.

Double gold? Justin Gatlin tries to add the 200 gold medal to the 100-meter one already around his neck, a feat last accomplished by fellow American Carl Lewis in 1984. Other track finals are men's 400 hurdles and long jump. TV: 12:50 p.m., CBUT; 8 p.m., Ch. 5.

Spain next: Beleaguered U.S. men try to beat undefeated Spain in basketball quarterfinals. If Americans lose, best they can do is seventh place. Also playing: undefeated Lithuania vs. China; Greece vs. Argentina; and Italy vs. Puerto Rico.
