France vs Spain in $3.2bn Semi-Final

The match pits the tournament’s most potent attack against its stingiest defence, as France’s star-studded forward line takes on a Spanish side built on midfield control.

A racism row erupted on the eve of the game after a former Spanish prime minister questioned the Frenchness of France’s squad, forcing Madrid to apologise.

Spain are looking to the 19-year-old Yamal for a breakout performance, while France rely on Mbappé’s explosiveness.

The winner will face either England or Argentina in the final.
