The first semifinal of the 2026 FIFA World Cup saw France take on Spain in Arlington, Texas today with a place in the final against either England or Argentina on the line.
ARLINGTON, Texas — Kylian Mbappé seemed to question his manager Didier Deschamps' approach and tactics after France's 2-0 defeat to Spain in the FIFA World Cup semifinal Tuesday.
PHILADELPHIA — For a few minutes Tuesday, the MLB All-Star Game came to a halt as Junior Caminero and the Tampa Bay Rays lived a nightmare. Caminero writhed on the ground in agony after taking a 97.6 mph sinker from St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Riley O'Brien off his left hand. When he got up, he jogged straight into the American League clubhouse. The star third baseman's second All-Star Game appearance was over in the third inning. He worried that he would miss much more than that.
It seems like an understatement to say that Tuesday's FIFA World Cup semifinal between France and Spain had plenty riding on it.
ATLANTA: Lionel Messi’s Argentina clash with England in a marquee World Cup semifinal on Wednesday, with Spain lying in wait after shattering French hopes of a third triumph. The fixture between two of the big beasts of global football is mouthwatering enough but is given added spice by long-standing political tensions. Lionel Scaloni’s Argentina are seeking to become the first team since Brazil in 1962 to win back-to-back World Cups, which would be a staggering send-off for the incomparable Messi. The 39-year-old, joint top of the Golden Boot standings with eight goals, inspired his team to victory in Qatar in 2022 in what was expected to be his final hurrah on football’s biggest stage. But he is back for more and has played a pivotal role in dragging his team to the semifinals, scoring in hard-fought 3-2 victories against Cape Verde and Egypt. Three-time champions Argentina will be taking on a different class of opponent in Atlanta compared with teams they have faced so far, even if England have only sparkled intermittently. Thomas Tuchel’s men have relied on the brilliance of Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham, who have scored 12 of England’s 13 goals. The sides will meet for the first time in a competitive match since the 2002 World Cup. Tuchel said he did not feel extra pressure despite the historic nature of the fixture as England target a first World Cup final since they won the tournament in 1966. “I don’t feel a burden,” he said.
ARLINGTON, Texas, July 14 : Spain's Rodri put on a midfield masterclass against France on Tuesday, making a long-awaited return to the form that won him the 2024 Ballon d'Or as he anchored an imperious display by Luis de la Fuente's team to take them into the World Cup final.
ATLANTA, July 14 : England manager Thomas Tuchel said his players were not dwelling on the rich and often controversial history between England and Argentina as they prepare for Wednesday's World Cup semi-final, insisting the occasion itself is big enough.
ARLINGTON, Texas, July 14 : Spain manager Luis de la Fuente said his side had revived the spirit of their 2010 World Cup triumph after a commanding 2-0 win over France on Tuesday sent them into the final and left them one victory from a second global title.
