Spain vs. France — Semifinal Match Preview
Spain and France meet in the Semifinal of the 2026 FIFA World Cup on July 14, 2026, live from Dallas Stadium in Arlington. Spain finished Group H at 2-1-0 while France ran through Group I unbeaten at 3-0-0, and both sides have kept winning since, setting up a clash between the tournament’s top two ranked teams.
France has been the tournament’s most explosive attack, with Kylian Mbappé’s 8 goals across six matches the single largest scoring total on either side, well ahead of anyone Spain can counter with. Ousmane Dembélé has added 5 goals of his own for France, and Michael Olise has supplied 5 assists from midfield, giving Didier Deschamps three players directly involved in double-digit goal contributions. Spain leans on a different kind of balance, with Mikel Oyarzabal’s 4 goals leading the attack, Mikel Merino chipping in 2 goals from midfield, and Marc Cucurella supplying 2 assists from the back.
Spain arrives as the 2010 champions and reigning European champions, ranked among the world’s top two sides alongside France, while France carries the pedigree of two previous titles in 1998 and 2018 and a runner-up finish in 2022, with Deschamps working his final tournament in charge. A place in the Final is on the line for both sides.
