France vs Spain Live FIFA World Cup 2026: Pedro Strikes to Make it 2-0
Spain moved a step closer to the FIFA World Cup 2026 final after doubling their advantage against France in the second half of the semi-final. Pedro Porro found the back of the net in the 58th minute to give Spain a commanding 2-0 lead and put the French side under even greater pressure.
After taking a 1-0 lead into the break through Mikel Oyarzabal's penalty, Spain continued to control the game with confident passing and disciplined defending. Their persistence paid off when Pedro Porro finished off a well-worked move, extending La Roja's lead with just over half an hour left to play.
France, who came into the semi-final on the back of an unbeaten World Cup campaign, now face a huge task to level the scoreboard. Despite boasting plenty of attacking talent, they have struggled to break through Spain's organized defense.
Spain, meanwhile, have looked sharp in every department and are now in a strong position to secure a place in the FIFA World Cup 2026 final. However, with time still remaining on the clock, France will be hoping for a dramatic comeback in one of the biggest matches of the tournament.
