Lamine Yamal Birthday | "My Gift Would Be A Victory": Yamal's Birthday Wish Ahead Of France Clash
Spain take on familiar foes France in their World Cup semi-final in Dallas on Tuesday (14th July). Luis de La Fuente's side beat France in the semi-finals of Euro 2024 on their way to being crowned European champions, before defeating Les Bleus in a nine-goal last-four thriller in the 2025 Nations League last year. But De La Fuente was keen to play down any suggestion from France boss Didier Deschamps that Spain are favourites simply saying "It's not decisive. We are two great national teams facing each other," France are aiming to reach the final for the third straight time, while for Spain, this is a first visit to the final four since their triumphant run to claim the cup back in 2010.
