PARIS — Sergio Camello struck twice in extra time as Spain took gold in the Olympic men's soccer final after a 5-3 win against France. The thrilling win at Parc des Princes completed a golden summer for Spanish soccer — following the senior team's European Championship triumph last month. Spain was a beaten finalist in Tokyo three years ago and became the first European gold medalist in men's soccer since it last won the tournament at the Barcelona Games in 1992. Camello coolly lifted over France goalkeeper Guillaume Restes in the 100th to seal the win.
