Spain are heading to the FIFA World Cup final after defeating France 2-0 in their semifinal clash in Arlington, Texas, on Tuesday.

The victory extended Spain's dominance over their European rivals, making it three consecutive wins against France in what is becoming an increasingly one-sided fixture between the two nations.

Spain were commanding throughout the contest, limiting France to nothing across 90 minutes at the Arlington venue — a performance that will only deepen the frustration in the French camp.

For France, the defeat ends their bid to reach a third straight World Cup final, a milestone they had been chasing after back-to-back final appearances in recent tournaments.

Spain, meanwhile, advance with confidence and momentum firmly on their side as they prepare to face their opponents in the final.
