Spain Set Up Dream World Cup Semi-Final Clash With France

Spain are through to a World Cup semi-final showdown with France after defeating Belgium in Los Angeles, setting up one of the most anticipated ties of the tournament.
Rick Edwards and Lloyd Griffith, joined by analysts Guillem Balague and Stephen Warnock, broke down Spain's victory and asked the question on every fan's lips — how do Spain keep finding a way to win?
Yamal under the spotlight
One of the central talking points was Lamine Yamal, and whether the young star has truly lived up to the enormous expectations placed on his shoulders heading into this tournament. The panel examined his performances closely, weighing his moments of brilliance against the weight of expectation.
France await in a blockbuster tie
Attention then turned to the semi-final itself, with France standing in Spain's way. The match-up has been billed as one of the standout fixtures of the competition, and anticipation is already building for what promises to be a breathtaking contest between two of Europe's great footballing nations.
England's quarter-final in focus
The panel also looked ahead to England's quarter-final against Norway, with the individual duel between Harry Kane and Erling Haaland capturing the imagination of fans worldwide. The two prolific strikers are set to face off in what could be one of the defining battles of the knockout stages.
In a lighter moment, Balague casually let slip that he holds Lionel Messi's personal email address — and even offered Rick and Lloyd a brief glimpse of it, much to their delight.
