France and Spain collide this evening with a place in the 2026 World Cup final on the line. The competition's two outstanding sides meet in Texas in a fixture fit for any final, with La Roja looking to add to the Euro 2024 crown they collected at England's expense two years ago.
Spain have conceded just one goal on their way to the last four, holding off Belgium in the quarter-finals with Mikel Merino coming off the bench to secure the win for the second game running. France have been at their scintillating best at every turn, brushing off Morocco last time out to remain on course for a third final in their last three World Cups.
Kick-off Time and Venue
We are scheduled to get underway at 8pm sharp this evening. There has been weather trouble to contend with throughout this competition, but tonight's venue keeps us well clear of any of those problems. The Dallas Stadium is a climate-controlled venue with tonight's game played indoors under its retractable roof.

Aurélien Tchouaméni has sat out of France's last two games due to a muscle injury, with Manu Kone stepping in to replace him alongside Adrien Rabiot. The Real Madrid star is not '100 per cent' according to Didier Deschamps, but he is available tonight.
