Spain shuts down France and advances to the World Cup final with a 2-0 victory
Spain defeated France 2-0 in the World Cup semifinal, advancing to the final where they will face the winner of Argentina vs England.
Spain's defensive prowess and swagger proved too much for France's attacking trio led by Kylian Mbappé, as La Roja secured a 2-0 victory to book their place in the World Cup final. This marks Spain's return to the final stage for the first time since their 2010 triumph.
The final will take place on Sunday, where Spain will face the winner of Wednesday's match between defending champion Argentina and England. France, meanwhile, will compete in the third-place match on Saturday.
The match was held at the Dallas stadium. FRANCE 24's Selina Sykes reported from the venue, highlighting Spain's defensive solidity that neutralized Mbappé's threat. Spain combined technical skill with tactical discipline to dominate the semifinal clash.
