Spain reach the World Cup final after seeing off France
Spain have reached the World Cup final for the first time since 2010, beating France 2-0 in a one-sided semi-final in Dallas. Mikel Oyarzabal put them ahead from the penalty spot after Lamine Yamal was fouled, before Pedro Porro doubled the lead in the second half against a France side who barely threatened. Kylian Mbappe was kept quiet throughout, and Spain now await England or Argentina in Sunday's final.
