A penalty goalby Mikel Oyarzabal , in the 20th minute, and another by Pedro Porro, in the 58th minute, have qualified Spain for the World Cup final , for the second time in history, after winning 0-2 to France.

The band of Luis de la Fuente has ruined France's national holiday with a very serious match in which Spain, with a rigorous defense and keeping possession of the ball, has been able to take advantage of the few mistakes of the French team.

The first mistake was made by Didier Deschamps in the 20th minute, in the first major move by Lamine Yamal. Until then, he had barely come into play, but he had read a ball perfectly within the area, Lucas Digne had not seen Lamine, he had mismeasured\u00A0and hit the Catalan striker in the leg.

Better placed in the field, with constant support and determination, Spain has neutralized the French team, which has been very distorted in the first half. In addition, thedefense  William Saliba has been injured. Bradley Barcola has been shot high, in one of the few attempts of France, and Dayot Upamecano has cut a ball and avoided the second goal against, after a great play by Lamine and Dani Olmo.

The break hasn'trevived the race, not even Manu Kone's field goal to have more of the ball, not even Barcola's change to Desire Doue.

On the contrary, another defensive errorhas allowed Pedro Porró to stand alone in front of Maignan after making the wall with Dani Olmo.

France has had neither the courage nor the passion to go back, and although Mbappé has become more involved in the game, he has never had the ability to squeeze the result. A bad exit from Unai Simon the ball has been left at Doue's feet with the empty door, but the PSG striker has sent the ball into the Albiazul goalkeeper's body.

De la Fuente has rewarded the team by putting Ferrán, Mikel Merino, Pedri, Nico, Llorente... and they've all had minutes on the field to celebrate the ranking, to ruin the national holiday for France.
