Sepanyol ke final, benam Perancis 2-0

Spain has confirmed its place in the 2026 World Cup final after a convincing 2-0 victory over France in the semifinals held at Dallas Stadium. The win reignites Spain's hopes of lifting the world trophy for a second time in their history.

Under coach Luis de la Fuente, the Spanish squad displayed a disciplined and mature performance, overcoming the 2022 finalists to secure a spot in the final for the first time since their 2010 triumph. Spain took an early lead in the 22nd minute when Mikel Oyarzabal converted a penalty after Lamine Yamal was fouled inside the box.

Despite increased pressure from France in the second half, with Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele pushing for an equalizer, Spain's defense, led by Aymeric Laporte and goalkeeper Unai Simon, held firm. Spain then capitalized on a swift counter-attack, with Pedro Porro scoring the second goal in the 58th minute, sealing the 2-0 win and ending France's comeback hopes.

This victory caps a strong knockout stage run for Spain, who previously eliminated Portugal and Belgium. The win brings Spain back to the World Cup final after a 16-year wait, offering them a chance to repeat their 2010 success. Spain now awaits the winner of the other semifinal between Argentina and England.
