Spain Shocks France: La Roja Marches to the World Cup Final

Mega IconJuly 15, 20261 Mins read43 Views

Spain delivered a tactical masterclass last night to defeat France 2-0 in the World Cup semi-final.

Mikel Oyarzabal opened the scoring with a first-half penalty before Pedro Porro sealed the victory in the second half.

The European champions completely stifled Kylian Mbappé and the rest of the French attack throughout the night.

France’s troubles multiplied early in the match when star defender William Saliba was forced off with an injury.

This monumental victory sends Spain straight into Sunday’s grand final against either Argentina or England. Meanwhile, this painful defeat marks the end of Didier Deschamps’ legendary managerial era with Les Bleus.
