The tournaments take place every four years, in conjunction with the Summer Olympic Games. The associations affiliated to FIFA are invited to participate with their men's U-23 and women's representative teams.[1] The men's tournament allows up to three overage players to join the U-23 squads.
The men's tournament was won by Argentina, coached by Marcelo Bielsa, which held a record of having won every match without conceding a goal in the tournament. The Golden Boot was won by Argentina's Carlos Tevez. The women's tournament was won by the United States.

FIFA Fair play award
gollark: i agree.
gollark: It's like potatOS `loading`.
gollark: Every 500 XP you get, the XP bar goes half the remaining distance to the end, but it never gets there.
gollark: Have an XP counter, but just have, say, an 0.1% chance of going up a level every second.
gollark: Actually, just do it entirely randomly.
